Abstract

This paper describes the evaluations of tension-compression fatigue characteristics and life for glass fiber/epoxy laminate composite applied to railway bogie to reduce weight. Test samples of tension-compression fatigue were composed of glass fiber/epoxy 4-harness woven laminate composites with different stacking sequence of warp-direction, fill-direction and ${\pm}45^{\circ}$-direction. The tension-compression fatigue test was conducted with stress ratio (R) of -1 and frequency of 5Hz. Goodman diagram were used to evaluate the fatigue characteristics and life of glass fiber/epoxy 4-harness satin woven laminate composite. Anti-buckling jig was designed to prevent buckling of specimen under compression load. The test results showed that the fatigue characteristics of glass fiber/epoxy 4-harness satin woven laminate composite with stacking sequence of warp-direction had a good performance in comparison with that of SM490 used to conventional metal railway bogie.

본 논문은 철도차량 경량화 재질로 적용된 유리섬유/에폭시 4-매 주자직 적층 복합재료의 인장-압축 피로특성을 평가하였다. 유리섬유/에폭시 4-매 주자직 적층 복합재료의 인장-압축 피로시험은 경사, 위사 그리고 ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ 방향으로 적층된 시험편에 대하여 수행하였다. 인장-압축 피로시험은 5Hz의 주파수를 갖으며, 응력비(R)는 -1로 수행하였다. 인장-압축 피로시험 수행 시 압축하중에 의한 시험편의 좌굴을 방지하기 위하여 좌굴방지지그를 설계하고 이를 시험에 적용하였다. 또한, Goodman 선도는 유리섬유/에폭시 4-매 주자직 적층 복합재의 피로특성과 수명을 평가하기 위해 사용하였다. 유리섬유/에폭시 4-매 주자직 적층 복합재료의 인장-압축 피로시험결과 경사방향 적층 복합재의 피로특성이 기존 금속재 대차에 적용되는 SM490에 비하여 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
