Abstract

The Usages of composite materials have been steadily on the rise in the industries of automobiles, air crafts, shipbuilding and other structures for transportations. Commonly required in those industries are light weight and high strength of the structures. Consequently, serious efforts in research have been focused on searching for light materials and on developments and characterizations of advanced substitutes including various kinds of composite materials. In this investigation, transversely isotropic composite materials are chosen and formed into two kinds of beams; Euler-Bernoulli beam(thin team) and Timoshenko beam(thick beam) for determinations of elastic constants. As an experimental technique Impulse Excitation Method is utilized to measure resonance frequencies of the beams of the composite materials in vibration tests. Elastic constants are evaluated from measured resonance frequencies for the two types of beams to observe and establish possible existence of effects of rotary inertia and shear deformations.

결량화 되고 고강도의재료를 요하는 자동차, 항공기, 선박, 각종 구조물 등 여러 분야에서 복합재료의 사용은 증가되어 왔고, 그에 따라 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Impulse Excitation Method을 통해 Transversely Isotropic한 재료의 공진 주파수를 측정함으로써 복합재료의 탄성계수를 구하였다. Timoshenko Beam Equation식에 나타나는 회전관성효과와 전단변형을 고려하였을 때와 고려하지 않았을 때 재료의 탄성계수에 변화가 어떻게 나타나는 가를 관찰하였다.
