Pipelines subjected to ground movement would be easily exposed to large-scale deformation. Since such deformations may cause the pipeline failure, it is important to ensure the safety of pipelines in various operation conditions. However, crack in weld metal have been considered as one of the main causes that can deteriorate the structural integrity of the pipeline. For this reason, the structural integrity of the pipe containing the crack in the weld should be obtained. In order to assess cracked pipe, J-integral and crack-tip opening displacement(CTOD) have been applied widely as the elastic-plastic fracture mechanics parameters representing crack driving force. In this study, engineering solutions to calculate the J-integral and CTOD of pipes with a circumferential outer surface crack in the weld are proposed. For this purpose, 3-dimensional elastic-plastic finite element(FE) analyses have been performed considering the effect of overmatch and width of weld. The shape of the weld was simplified to I-groove, and axial displacement was employed as for loading condition. Based on FE results, the effects of crack size, material properties and width of weldment on J-integral and CTOD were investigated. Additionally, the J-integral and CTOD for I-groove were compared with those for V-groove to examine the effects of the weld shape, and a proportionality coefficient of J-integral and CTOD was calculated from the results of this paper.

Kim et al. suggested an experimental method to determine the Q parameter in situ from the out-of-plane displacement and the in-plane strains on the surface of side necking near the crack tip. In this paper, the procedure to evaluate the stress triaxiality near a crack tip such as the Q parameter is to be polished in the details for simplicity and accuracy. That is, Q and hydrostatic stress are determined only from the out-of-plane displacement, but not using in-plane strain, which is hard to measure. And also, the plastic modulus is determined by an alternative way. Through three-dimensional finite element analyses for a standard CT specimen with 20% side-grooves, the validities of the new procedures are examined in comparison to the old ones. The effect of location where the displacements are measured to determine the stress triaxiality is explored.

Both impact and fracture toughnesses were investigated with root gaps in FCAW weld metals at room temperature and 0.deg.C. The maximum impact value was obtained at the root gap of 16mm for 1G position weld metal, and the impact value of 3G position weld metals also showed the maximum impact value at the root gap of 12mm. However, the fracture toughnes(CTOD)values tend to decrease with increasing root gaps at both temperatures in 1G weld metal. Bending test also showed satisfactory results with all of root gaps investigated. Based on this result, it becomes possible to apply wide root gaps in real projects in both aspects of toughness and bending resistance.

EFP(Fitness For Purpose) type defect assessment methodologies based on ECA(Engineering Critical Analysis) have been established and are in use for the structural integrity evaluation of gas pipelines. ECA usually includes the fracture mechanics analysis, and it is assumed that the J-integral uniquely characterizes the crack-tip stress-strain field. However, it has been proven that the J-integral alone can not be sufficient to characterize the crack-tip field under low levels of constraint with a single parameter. Since pipeline structures are made of ductile material, locally loaded in tension, cracks may experience low level of constraint, and therefore, J-dominance will be lost. For this reason, the level of constraint must be quantified to establish a precise assessment procedure for pipeline defects. The objective of this paper is to investigate the fracture behavior of a crack in gas pipeline(KS D 3507) by quantifying the level of constraint. For this purpose, tensile tests and CTOD tests were performed at room temperature(24$\^{C}$) and low temperature(-40$\^{C}$) to obtain the material properties. J-Q analyses were performed for SENB and SENT specimens based on 2-D finite element analyses, in order to investigate the in-plane constraint effects on pipeline defects. For precise assessment of cracks, especially shallow cracks, in KS D 3507 pipeline, constraint effect must be considered.

본 논문에서는 재생 커널 기법을 사용하여 혼합모드 균열진전 문제에 대한 연속체 기반의 형상 설계민감도 해석을 수행하였다. 재생 커널 기법은 기존의 유한요소법과 달리 요소망을 재구성할 필요가 없어, 커널 함수의 연속성을 증가시켰을 때 높은 정밀도의 형상함수를 얻을 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 균열선단 주변에서 J-적분을 수행하기 위해 선형탄성 조건이 고려되었다. 변위장과 응력 확대 계수의 설계변수에 대한 감도해석을 위하여 물질도함수를 도입하였으며 직접 미분법보다 효율적인 애조인 방법을 사용하여 설계민감도를 유도하였다. 수치 예제들을 통해서 재생 커널 기법을 이용한 균열진전 해석결과의 타당성을 확인하였으며 애조인 방법을 이용한 형상 설계민감도 해석 결과를 유한차분법과 비교하여 매우 정확하고 효율적인 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 간단한 모델에 대하여 형상 최적설계를 수행하여 균열이 발생될 수 있는 구조물에 대해서 균열에 의한 피해를 최소화할 수 있도록 균열을 제어할 수 있는 최적의 형상을 도출하였다.

Due to the complexity of the engineering problems, it is difficult to obtain directly the stress field around the crack tip by theoretical derivation. In the paper, the hybrid method is employed to calculate full-field stress around the crack tip in uni-axially leaded finite width tensile plate, using the displacement data of given points calculated by finite element method as input data. The method uses complex variable formulations involving conformal mappings and analytical continuity. In order to accurately compare calculated fringes with experimental ones, both actual and reconstructed photoelastic fringe patterns are two times multiplied and sharpened by digital image processing. Reconstructed fringes by hybrid method are quite comparable to actual fringes. The experimental results indicate that Mode I stress intensity factor analyzed by the hybrid method are accurate within a few percent compared with ones obtained by empirical equation and finite element analysis.

Kim et al. described and compared other methods of measuring stress triaxiality using the displacements near the side necking, proved the validities of these models and explored the effect of location where the displacements are measured using three-dimensional finite element analysis for a standard CT specimen with 20% side-grooves. In this paper, the applicability of these models to various specimen and materials are examined in detail. To consider the effects of side groove, thickness of specimen, crack length, specimen geometry and strain hardening exponents, three-dimensional finite element simulation has been performed for various specimen geometries. For a case without a side groove, in the whole the difference between the stress triaxilaity analytically evaluated and directly determined is similar. For a case with a 20% side groove the stress triaxiality is measured at the area where ${\theta}$ is smaller than $60^{\circ}$, which excludes a side grooved area.

When the crack in orthotropic material is propagating under dynamic model I load, influences of anisotropic property ratio $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ on stress and displacement around propagating crack tip are studied in this paper. When M<0.55 and .alpha.=90.deg.(.alpha.; the angle of fiber direction with crack propagating direction, M; crack propagation velocity/shear stress wave velocity), the influence of $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ on stress .sigma.$_{x}$, .sigma.$_{y}$, .tau.$_{xy}$ and .sigma.$_{\theta}$ is the greast on .sigma.$_{y}$. Except M<0.55 and .alpha.=90.deg., it is the greast on .sigma.$_{x}$ in any situation. Increasing $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$, stress components are increased or decreased. When maximum stress is based, the stress .sigma.$_{x}$(.alpha.=90.deg.), .sigma.$_{y}$(.alpha.=0.deg.) and .tau.$_{xy}$ (.alpha.=90.deg.) are decreased with increment of $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ in M=0. any stresses except .sigma.$_{*}$x/(.alpha.=0.deg.) are decreased with increment of $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ in M=0.9. When .alpha.=90.deg., the influence of $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ on displacement U and V is V>U in any velocities of crack propagation, when .alpha.=0.deg., it is VU in M>0.75 and when $E_{L}$/ $E_{T}$ is increased, U and V are decreased in any conditions.sed in any conditions.tions.tions.tions.
