3D printing products manufactured by material extrusion are used in many industrial fields recently. However, these products are difficult to use in the field due to their low tensile strengths. In order to solve this problem, research on improving the tensile strength of the output using a 3D printer has been continuously conducted. In this study, we performed a tensile test using Universal Testing Machine according to infill pattern, nozzle temperature, bed temperature, and printing speed conditions. Results revealed that tensile specimen of concentric shape had the highest tensile strength in infill pattern condition and that the tensile strength increased linearly with increasing nozzle and bed temperatures. However, the tensile strength decreased with increasing printing speed. Consequently, we confirmed that tensile strength could be increased and decreased depending on output conditions of 3D printing.

The rupture of blood vessels in the human brain results in serious pathological and medical problems. In particular, brain hemorrhage and hematomas resulting from impact to the head are a major cause of death. As such, investigating the tensile behavior and rupture of blood vessels in the brain is very important from a medical point of view. In the present study, the tensile characteristics of the blood vessels in the human brain were analyzed using a quasi-static uniaxial tensile test, and the properties of the arteries and veins compared. In addition, to compare the tensile behavior and demonstrate the validity of the experimental results, blood vessels from the legs of pigs were also tested and analyzed. The overall results were in accordance with the histological structures and previous medical reports.

An advanced fiber sheet has been widely used for strengthening of the concrete structures due to its excellent properties such as high strength and light weight. Bond strength is very important in strengthening the concrete structures using an advanced fiber sheet. This research examines the bond behavior between fiber sheet and concrete, investigates the bond strength by the direct pull-out test and the tensile-shear test. To obtain the tensile-shear strength a double-face shear type bond test is conducted. The primary test variables are the types of concrete surface roughness (disk-grinding/chipping) and retrofitting methods (bonding/injection). Thirty specimens were tested to evaluate the bond strength. It is shown that the average bond strength between fiber sheet and concrete by the direct pull-out test and the tensile-shear test is $22.3{\sim}23.1kgf/cm^2$ $17.92{\sim}19.75kgf/cm^2$, respectively.

In this paper, for the testing of tensile strength of dead-end clamp used in transmission line, resulting values were estimated by designing and producing the horizontal version of widely-used vertical tensile tester. Tensile strength test of dead-end clamp for transmission line is essential for quality test of products. Moreover, tensile tester is an equipment that requires high level of reliability which needs to be examined through sampling tests commensurate with total inspection. Frames of tensile tester were made up of H-beams so that it can endure more than 20 [tons] of load capability and the test was implemented for 60[seconds] applying five types of tension. In consequence, the tester could withstand up to 21,600[kg] of weight as well as all types of tension. This newly developed horizontal tensile tester can be utilized in figuring out properties of various materials by estimating tensile strength of materials such as metal, rubber and fiber.

This study, it was tried to evaluate the asphalt behavior under tensile loading conditions through indirect Brazilian and direct tensile tests, experimentally and numerically. This paper is important from two points of view. The first one, a new test method was developed for the determination of the direct tensile strength of asphalt and its difference was obtained from the indirect test method. The second one, the effects of particle size and loading rate have been cleared on the tensile fracture mechanism. The experimental direct tensile strength of the asphalt specimens was measured in the laboratory using the compression-to-tensile load converting (CTLC) device. Some special types of asphalt specimens were prepared in the form of slabs with a central hole. The CTLC device is then equipped with this specimen and placed in the universal testing machine. Then, the direct tensile strength of asphalt specimens with different sizes of ingredients can be measured at different loading rates in the laboratory. The particle flow code (PFC) was used to numerically simulate the direct tensile strength test of asphalt samples. This numerical modeling technique is based on the versatile discrete element method (DEM). Three different particle diameters were chosen and were tested under three different loading rates. The results show that when the loading rate was 0.016 mm/sec, two tensile cracks were initiated from the left and right of the hole and propagated perpendicular to the loading axis till coalescence to the model boundary. When the loading rate was 0.032 mm/sec, two tensile cracks were initiated from the left and right of the hole and propagated perpendicular to the loading axis. The branching occurs in these cracks. This shows that the crack propagation is under quasi-static conditions. When the loading rate was 0.064 mm/sec, mixed tensile and shear cracks were initiated below the loading walls and branching occurred in these cracks. This shows that the crack propagation is under dynamic conditions. The loading rate increases and the tensile strength increases. Because all defects mobilized under a low loading rate and this led to decreasing the tensile strength. The experimental results for the direct tensile strengths of asphalt specimens of different ingredients were in good accordance with their corresponding results approximated by DEM software.

In this paper, uniaxial tensile tests of ETFE films with three kinds of thicknesses(100, 200, $250{\mu}m$) and two kinds of directions(machine direction & transverse direction) are performed and the tensile strength, the tensile strain at break and the Young's modulus of ETFE films are compared for two kinds of specimen types(2 & 5). It could be figured out that there are no significant difference between tensile strengths of two specimen types but the tensile strain at break and the Young's modulus of ETFE films are affected by the specimen types. And it is concluded that the uniaxial tensile test of specimen type 2 are more reliable than that of specimen type 5.

The tensile strength of unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastics under a high strain rate was experimentally investigated. A high-strain-rate test was performed using the tension-type split Hopkinson bar technique. In order to obtain the tensile stress-strain relations, a special fixture was used for the impact tensile specimen. The experimental results demonstrated that the tensile modulus and strength in the longitudinal direction are independent of the strain rate. In contrast, the tensile properties in the transverse direction and the shear properties increase with the strain rate. Moreover, it was observed that the strain-rate dependence of the shear strength is much stronger than that of the transverse strength. The tensile strength of off-axis specimens was measured using an oblique tab, and the experimental results were compared with the tensile strength predicted based on the Tsai-Hill failure criterion. It was concluded that the tensile strength can be characterized quite well using the above failure criterion under dynamic loading conditions.

접착식 콘크리트 덧씌우기는 기존 콘크리트 포장과의 재료물성이 유사하여 적절한 유지보수 공법으로 제시되고 있으며, 덧씌우기층과 기존 포장층이 완전부착을 통한 일체화 거동을 하여 우수한 구조적 성능을 확보할 수 있다. 따라서 접착식 콘크리트 덧씌우기의 장기 공용성을 위하여 적절한 부착강도 기준을 확보하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 부착 특성이 부착강도에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고자 하였으며, 덧씌우기 재료, 기존 포장의 압축강도 및 휨강도 변화, 기존 포장의 열화상태 등 다양한 부착조건에 대한 직접인장 및 간접인장 실험을 실시하여 도출되는 부착강도를 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 직접인장실험에 의한 부착강도가 간접인장실험에 의한 부착강도보다 상대적으로 높게 분포하는 경향을 나타내고 있으나, 결정계수 0.75 및 P-value 0.002의 높은 부착강도 상관관계를 확보하였다. 이를 통하여 접착식 콘크리트 덧씌우기의 실제 현장 거동을 모사할 수 있는 반복하중에 의한 부착 피로 특성 분석 시 직접인장 및 간접인장 실험의 상관관계를 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
