In this study, test results for fatigue crack propagation of Al-2024-T3511 are presented considering corrosion effects, and fatigue lifes are compared for the cases of corrosion and non-corrosion. Higher corrosion environments show lower fatigue life and faster crack growth. To predict the corrosion fatigue life, a corrosion factor concept is newly introduced and applied in Paris' law. The predicted results show good agreement with experimental data and this corrosion fatigue model can be successfully used for the prediction of fatigue life of aluminum structure with corrosion effects.

본연구는 축방향 변형 구속이 고강도 콘크리트 휨부재의 휨 전단거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위한 것으로, 수화열과 건조수축에 기인하는 축방향 변형과 재하에 의한 축방향 변형을 구속한 부재 및 무구속 부재에 대하여 휨파괴와 전단파괴 실험을 실시하였다. 타설 직후부터 축변형을 구속한 실험체의 재하시 강성은 재하전의 구속으로 발생한 관통균열의 영향을 받아 무구속 실험체의 강성보다 낮지만, 재하시의 축변형 구속에 따른 압축구속력의 상승으로 인하여 강성의 크기는 역전되었다 축변형이 완전히 구속된 휨부재의 휨강도는 무구속 부재보다 20%이상 상승하지만 변형능력은 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 재하전의 축변형 구속에 의한 관통균열(균열폭 0.1mm 미만)은 부재의 전단내력 및 전단균열 진전 형상에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

The fatigue crack propagation behavior of the SA516-Grade 70 steel which is used for pressure vessels was experimentally examined under the condition of at room temperature, $150^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$ and $370^{\circ}C$ with stress ration of R=0.1 and 0.3. The fatigue crack propagation rate , da/dN, related with the stress intensity factor range, $\vartriangle$N, was influenced by the stress ration within the stable growth of fatigue crack(Region II) with an increase in $\vartriangle$N. The resistance to the fatigue crack growth at high temperature is higher in comparison with that at room temperature, and the resistance attributed to the extent of plasticity-induced by compressive residual stress according to the cyclic loads. Fractographic examinations revels that the differences of the fatigue crack growth characteristics between room and high temperatures are mainly explained by the crack and oxide-induced by high temperature.

Super duplex stainless steel has long life in severe environments by showing the enough strength and corrosion resistance. Therefore, the fracture mechanics approach needs to support the structural strength integrity for the used material. In this study, fatigue crack propagation behavior was investigated to super duplex stainless steel with 0.2% nitrogen. The various volume fraction and distribution of austenite structure for applied specimen in test were obtained by changing the heat treatment temperature and cycle. From test results, fatigue crack propagation rate showed two kinds of tendency between da/dN and ${\Delta}K$ according to distribution of austenite structure and structure anisotropy.

조선업을 포함한 다양한 산업 분야에서 후판 강재의 수요량 증가와 함께 사용 범위 또한 폭넓게 되고 있다. 특히, 선박의 수송효율의 극대화를 위하여 컨테이너선의 대형화가 급속하게 진행되고 있으며, 2009년 현재1,300TEU 이상의 초대형 컨테이너선이 건조되고 이다. 이처럼 용접구조물의 초대형화에 따른 사용강재 또한 고강도 극후물화 되고 있다. 현재 선박에 적용중인 고강도 강재는 EH47 강재로 YP 460MPa 급의 강재가 Hatch Coamming부에 적용중에 있으며, 강재의 두께 또한 70mm 이상이다. 이러한 고강도 극후물재의 강구조물에 적용에 따른 선급협회에서는 용접부에서의 취성균열 전파에 의한 취성파괴의 위험성이 있으므로 강재의 두께를 제한하고 더욱 엄격한 파괴인성값을 요구하고 있다. 일본선급협회(NK)를 중심으로 취성균열의 정지를 위한 모재의 요구 성능등에 관한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 이 연구의 대부분의 전제 조건은 선박의 블럭과 블럭의 조립시에 용접부가 직선형이 아닌 계단형(Butt shift)를 하는 것으로 하고 있으므로, 국내의 조선건조 공법의 현실과는 거리감이 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 조선사에서 수행중인 직선 이음부에 대한 시공 공법에서 취성균열이 발생하여 진전 되더라도 균열을 정지 시킬 수 있는 기술에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 균열의 진전은 대부부의 연속면에서는 정지를 시키지 못하고 직진 전파 하여서 파괴에 도달하게 된다. 따라서 뭔가의 불연속적인 면을 임의로 생성하여야 균열을 정지 시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 균열의 정지 방법으로 형상적인 측면과 재료적인 측면에서 검토를 수행하였다. 형상적인 측면에서는 균열을 정지 시키고자 하는 위치에 불연속적인 면을 만들기 위하여 일정 크기의 hole을 만들어서 균열을 정지시켰으며, 재료적인 측면에서는 고인성의 용접재료를 사용하여서 취성균열이 진행하는 경로에 인성을 높은 재료를 적용하여 불연속적인 면의 생성과 함께 인성을 높여서 균열을 정지 시키는 기술을 개발하였다. 이러한 기술의 개발을 통하여 취성균열의 전파에 의한 파괴를 방지 할 수 있으며, 용접구조물의 안전성 확보를 가능하게 하였다.

In this paper, computational evaluation method for fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR) based on material viscoplastic-damage model is proposed. Viscoplastic-damage model expressing material constitutive behavior of 7% nickel steel is introduced and is implemented into commercial finite element analysis(FEA) code, ABAQUS, as a user defined material subroutine(UMAT) for application in the FEA environments. Verification of developed UMAT and material parameters of material model are carried out by uniaxial tensile test simulations of 7% nickel steel. Moreover, jump-in-cycles procedure and rearrangement of critical damage are employed and also implemented to the ABAQUS UMAT for fatigue damage analysis. Typical FCGR test results such as relationship between crack length and number of cycles and relationship between da/dN and ${\Delta}K$ could be obtained from FCGR test simulation using developed UMAT and these results are compared with experimental results in order to verify of proposed computational method.

The numerical simulation of Brazilian fracture toughness test is carried out using PFC code and the influence parameters are analyzed such as shape of loading plane, size of Brazilian disc and unit panicle of model, loading angle and loading rate. The flattened Brazilian disc is adopted for applying uniform load. The range of loading angle(2$\alpha$) necessary to induce the tensile crack at disc center and to obtain the load-displacement curve giving the critical load for the stable crack propagation is shown as 20$^{\circ}$~40$^{\circ}$. In condition that the loading angle is 20$^{\circ}$, the mode-I fracture toughness is evaluated almost constant in the range of particle size less than I mm and loading rate less than 0.01 mm/s. This range of influence parameters seems appropriate condition for the tensile crack initiation at disc center and the control of stable crack propagation, which can give the reliance in evaluation of fracture toughness by Brazilian test.

The flattened Brazilian disc is adopted for applying uniform load. The range of loading angle(2$\alpha$) necessary to induce the tensile crack at disc center and to obtain the load-displacement curve giving the critical load for the stable crack propagation is shown as 20°∼40°. In condition that the loading angle is 20°, the mode-I fracture toughness is evaluated almost constant in the range of particle size less than 1 mm and loading rate less than 0.01㎜/s. This range of influence parameters seems appropriate condition for the tensile crack initiation at disc center and the control of stable crack propagation, which can give the reliance in evaluation of fracture toughness by Brazilian test.

Oil hydraulic piston pumps are extensively used worldwide because of their simple design, light weight, and cost effectiveness. However, an oil hydraulic pump is likely to have high leakage, friction, and low energy efficiency after long-term use. In oil hydraulic piston pumps the clearance between the valve block and the piston plays an important role in the volumetric and overall efficiency. We studied the wear property of the SACM645 material used in hydraulic piston pumps via experiments with different heat treatments. We prepared three different specimens. The maximum tensile strengths of the QT and QT-nitration specimens are similar (about 820 MPa), but the strains are significantly different. However, the fatigue characteristic depended on the heat treatment.
