In this study, mechanical characteristics of carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) with thermoplastic styrenic elastomers(TPS) were investigated. The finite element method(FEM) was applied to introduced into laminated beams and numerical analysis results of the 3-point bending test were conducted to evaluate their vibration damping properties. TPS are physical mixtures of polymers, having outstanding flexibility and elasticity. They are expected to apply to the vibration damping materials for sports equipment due to good processability. The analysis result showed that, the bending stiffness was decreased by the TPS in the CFRP specimens and bending stiffness of CFRP with TPE depended on the laminated structures.
