손상된 철근콘크리트 보를 모의하기 위해 사전균열을 발생시킨 후, GFRP Bar와 GSP 매입공법으로 보수하여 피로실험을 수행하였다. 피로실험 결과, 실험보는 피로하중 초기 싸이클에서 대부분의 잔류처짐과 균열이 발생하고 싸이클 수에 따른 이들의 증가율은 미미하였다. 보수보의 정적강도는 보수하지 않은 보에 비해 크게 증가하였지만, 피로강도는 감소하였다. S-N 곡선에서, GFRP Bar 보수보의 피로강도는 정적강도의 58%, GSP 보수보의 피로강도는 52%였다.

This paper aims to study the behavior of short reinforced concrete columns confined with external glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRP) sheets under eccentric loads. The experimental part of the study was achieved by testing 9 specimens under eccentric compression. Three eccentricity ratios corresponding to e/t = 0, 0.10, 0.50 in one direction of the column were used. Specimens were divided into three groups. The first group was the control one without confinement. The second group was fully wrapped with GFRP laminates before loading. The third group was wrapped under loading after reaching 75% of failure loads of the control specimens. The third group was investigated in order to represent the practical case of strengthening a loaded column with FRP laminates. All specimens were loaded until failure. The results show that GFRP laminates enhances both failure load and ductility response of eccentrically loaded column. Moreover, the study also illustrates the effect of confinement on the first crack load, lateral deformation, strain in reinforcement and failure pattern. Based on the analysis of the experimental results, a simple model has been proposed to predict the improvement of load carrying capacity under different eccentricity ratios. The predicted equation takes into consideration the eccentricity to cross section depth ratio, the ultimate strength of GFRP, the thickness of wrapping laminate, and the time of wrapping (before loading and under loading). A good correlation was obtained between experimental and analytical results.

The current study looks at the experimental and numerical performance of ferrocement RC channel slabs reinforced with welded steel mesh, expanded steel mesh, and fiber glass mesh individually. Ten RC channel slabs with dimensions of 500 mm×40 mm×2500 mm were subjected to flexural loadings as part of the testing program. The type of reinforcing materials, the number of mesh layers, and the reinforcement volume fraction are the key parameters that can be changed. The main goal is to determine the impact of using new inventive materials to reinforce composite RC channel slabs. Using ANSYS -16.0 Software, nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) was used to simulate the behavior of composite channel slabs. Parametric study is also demonstrated to identify variables that can have a significant impact on the model's mechanical behavior, such as changes in slab dimensions. The obtained experimental and numerical results indicated that FE simulations had acceptable accuracy in estimating experimental values. Also, it's significant to demonstrate that specimens reinforced with fiber glass meshes gained approximately 12% less strength than specimens reinforced with expanded or welded steel meshes. In addition, Welded steel meshes provide 24% increase in strength over expanded steel meshes when reinforcing RC channel slabs. In general, ferrocement specimens tested under flexural loadings outperform conventional reinforced concrete specimens in terms of ultimate loads and energy absorbing capacity.

This study describes ultrasonic reflection at a water/fiber reinforced polymer composite/water interface. Theoretical predictions of reflected beam amplitudes are also presented. Four different polymer composite laminates are investigated : T300/5208 graphite/epoxy $[0]_{31T},\;[45/90/-45/0]_{3S},\;[45/-45]_{2S}$, and S-2 glass/epoxy $[0/90]_{4S}$. The analytical leaky plate wave dispersion curves for the unidirectional laminate and other three laminates can be obtained by searching for the minimum magnitude of the reflection coefficient.

최근 콘크리트제품에 대한 고급화, 고품질화 및 고강도화 등의 추구로 변화함에 따라 구조물의 미적효과와 전시 목적의 제품 고급화를 위해 반투명 콘크리트를 제작하였다. 본 연구에서는 반투명 콘크리트의 제조기법 개발을 통해 다양한 형상의 블록 제조방식을 소개하고, 또한 반투명 콘크리트의 물성 평가와 더불어 경제적인 반투명 콘크리트 제조를 위해 무기혼화재인 고로슬래그와 플라이애시의 활용 및 유리알갱이의 적용방안에 대해 검토하였다. 물성평가 결과, 반투명 콘크리트 블록의 28일 압축강도는 32.2MPa이고 탄성계수와 푸아송비는 일반 콘크리트 블록에 비해 증가되어 압축을 받는 부재일 경우 일반 콘크리트 구조물과 같이 구조적 용도로도 사용이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 시멘트 대체재로써 플라이애시 적용하였을 때 동일 양의 광섬유를 포함한 반투명 콘크리트 블록의 28일 강도의 85~96%의 값을 보였으며, 고로슬래그 미분말을 적용하였을 때에는 82~96%의 값을 보였다. 또한, 광섬유대체재로서 유리알갱이를 적용한 결과, 빛의 투과효과가 전혀 나타나지 않아 대체효과가 전혀 없는 것으로 나타났다.

이 연구에서는 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가함에 따라서 변화하는 GFRP 보강근의 부착 특성을 조사하였다. 실험에서는 3종류의 콘크리트에 배근된 27개의 보강근의 부착응력-부착미끌림 관계를 측정하였다. 하중가력이 종료한 후에 실험체를 절단하여 고강도콘크리트가 GFRP 보강근의 부착에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 실험 결과에 의하면 GFRP 보강근의 부착파괴면은 철근과 상이하게 2개의 면으로 구분되었다. 파괴면은 콘크리트와 외피 사이의 파괴면과 외피와 섬유보강근 사이의 파괴면으로 구분 할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 GFRP 보강근의 부착파괴면은 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가함에 따라서 콘크리트의 접착력과 외피의 접착력의 상호관계에 따라서 달라졌다. GFRP 보강근의 부착강도는 콘크리트의 압축강도가 증가함에 따라서 증가하였지만, 증가 비율은 철근의 부착강도보다 낮았다.

Eighteen (18) (120×300×2200 mm) beams were prepared and tested to evaluate the shear strength of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) beams with no shear reinforcement, and evaluate the effectiveness of various innovative strengthening systems to increase the shear capacity of the GFRC beams. The test variables are the amount of discrete glass fiber (0.0, 0.6, and 1.2% by volume of concrete) and the type of longitudinal reinforcement bars (steel or GFRP), the strengthening systems (externally bonded (EB) sheet, side near-surface mounted (SNSM) bars, or the two together), strengthening material (GFRP or steel) links, different configurations of NSM GFRP bars (side bonded links, full wrapped stirrups, side C-shaped stirrups, and side bent bars), link spacing, link inclination angle, and the number of bent bars. The experimental results showed that adding the discrete glass fiber to the concrete by 0.6%, and 1.2% enhanced the shear strength by 18.5% and 28%, respectively in addition to enhancing the ductility. The results testified the efficiency of different strengthening systems, where it is enhanced the shear capacity by a ratio of 28.4% to 120%, and that is a significant improvement. Providing SNSM bent bars with strips as a new strengthening technique exhibited better shear performance in terms of crack propagation, and improved shear capacity and ductility compared to other strengthening techniques. Based on the experimental shear behavior, an analytical study, which allows the estimation of the shear capacity of the strengthened beams, was proposed, the results of the experimental and analytical study were comparable by a ratio of 0.91 to 1.15.

Mechanical properties of nonwoven alfa fiber based reinforced biocomposite were evaluated to assess the possibility of using it as a new material in engineering applications such as orthopedic application. Samples were fabricated by needle punching, thermal bonding and Hydroentanglement, by blending alfa fibers with wool fibers or Polypropylene fibers. The mechanical properties were tested and showed that the nonwoven NW3 (alfa fiber/PP/PLA, with hydroentanglement) is the best. It has a value of stress at break of 1.94 MPa, a strain of 54.2% and a young's module of 7.95 MPa, in a production normal direction. A biocomposite has been made with NW3 mixed with PMMA matrix. The use of nonwoven based alfa fiber in reinforcing the composite material increases its rigidity and the tensile strength; the elongation was found to be 1.53%, the Young's Module of 1.79 GPa and the tensile at break of 15.06 MPa. Results indicated that alfa fibres are of interest for low-cost engineering applications and can compete with glass fibres in orthopedic application.

In this study, the physically-based failure models for matrix and fibers in compression and tension loading are introduced. For the 3D stress based fiber kinking model a modification is proposed for calculation of the fiber misalignment angle. All of these models are implemented into the finite element code by using the advantage of damage variable and the numerical results are discussed. To investigate the matrix failure model, purely in-plane transverse compression experiments are carried out on the specimens made by Glass/Epoxy to obtain the fracture surface angle and then a comparison is made with the calculated numerical results. Furthermore, shear failure of $({\pm}45)_s$ model is investigated and the obtained numerical results are discussed and compared with available experimental results. Some experiments are also carried out on the woven laminated composites to investigate the fracture pattern in the matrix failure mode and shown that the presented matrix failure model can be used for the woven composites. Finally, the obtained numerical results for stress based fiber kinking model and improved ones (strain based model) are discussed and compared with each other and with the available results. The results show that these models can predict the kink band angle approximately.
