본 연구는 주증기배관으로 사용되고 있는 SA106. Gr.C의 모재와 용접계에 대해서 파괴인성에 미치는 온도와 하중속도의 영향을 살펴보기 위해서 다양한 온도와 하중속도에서 J-R 시험 및 인장시험을 수행하였다. 두 재료 모두 동적변형시효의 영향을 받고 있는 온도영역에서 약 40% 정도의 파괴인성 감소가 관찰되었으며, 하중속도에 따른 파괴인성 감소영역은 serration과 인장강도 증가 영역의 하중속도 의존성과 일치하였다. 원자력발전소 운전온도에서 모재와 용접재 모두 하중선변위속도가 4.0mm/min 일 때 파괴인성치의 최저를 보였으며, 하중속도가 증가함에 따라 증가하여 동적하중속도(800, 40mm/min)일 때 최대를 보였다. 모재와 용접재를 비교하면 용접재에서 serration이 뚜렸했고, 보다 넓은 온도영역에서 관찰되었다. 또한 인장강도의 증가가 보다 고온에서 형성되었다. 이러한 특성은 용접재가 모재에 비해 냉각률이 크고 미세한 결정입으로 이루어져있으며, 망간의 함량이 높기 때문으로 판단된다.

원자력 발전소 배관계통에 파단전 누설 (LBB) 설계개념의 적용을 위해서는 원자로 가동온도에서의 재료의 파괴저항성 평가가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 원자로의 1차 냉각계통배관의 엘보우 소재로 사용되는 SA516-Gr.70 강의 파괴저항성에 미치는 DSA (Dynamic Strain Aging, 동적변형시효) 영향을 고찰하였다. 파괴저항성 평가를 위해 원자로 가동온도를 포함한 상온~50$0^{\circ}C$ 온도영역에서 준정적 하중에서부터 지진 하중 정도의 동적 하중까지 하중속도를 달리하여 직류전위차법 (DCPD) 이용하여 J-R 시험을 행하였다. J-R 시험결과, SA516-Gr.70 강은 특정한 온도와 하중속도의 조합에서 파괴저항성이 크게 떨어지는 양상을 보였으며, 낮은 파괴저항성을 나타내는 온도는 하중속도가 증가함에 따라 높은 온도쪽으로 이동하는 전형적인 DSA 감수성을 보였다. 인장시험을 통해서도 큰 폭의 serration 이 관찰되었으며 SA516-Gr.70 강에서 파괴저항성의 변화와 DSA 현상과의 연관성을 고찰하였다.

Most metallic materials and alloys show rate independence or negative rate sensitivity in some temperature region when dynamic strain aging occurs. It is generally recognized that negative rate sensitivity is an essential feature of dynamic strain aging that can depend on strain and/or strain rate. The unified viscoplasticity theory based on overstress is applied to reproduce a change of rate sensitivity type that depends on strain or strain rate. This is accomplished through the introduction of a single new term in the growth law of the equilibrium stress, which is a tensor valued state variable of the model. It is also shown that the new term can be used to reproduce a dramatic increase of rate sensitivity in dynamic plasticity.

The effect of dynamic strain aging on high temperature deformation behaviour of the A-Mg alloy was investigated by strain rate change tests and stress relaxation tests between 20$0^{\circ}C$and 50$0^{\circ}C$. Yield point, short stress transient and periodic discontinuities on the stress-strain curve were considered as an evidence of the effect of dynamic strain aging. With this criterion two distinct strain rate-temperature regimes could be manifested. Dynamic strain aging was considered to be effective in the high temperature-low strain rate regime, whereas dynamic recovery was a dominant deformation mechanism in the low temperature-high strain rate regime. It was found that dynamic strain aging in the high temperature deformation was governed by the mechcanism of diffusion-controlled, viscous dislocation movement.

The viscoplasticity theory based on overstress, one of the unified state variable theories, is generalized to model zero (no influence of loading rate) and negative (flow stress decreases with loading rate) as well as positive (flow stress increases with loading rate) rate sensitivity in a consistent way. On the basis of the long-time asymptotic solution the different types of rate sensitivity are classified with respect to an augmentation function that is introduced in the evolution law fur a state variable equilibrium stress. The theory predicts normal relaxation and creep behaviors even if unusual rate sensitivity is modeled. The constitutive model fir the behavior of a modified 9Cr-1 Mo steel at various temperatures is then compared with experimental data found in the literature.

This is the fifth in a series of companion papers dealing with the dynamic hardening properties of various marine structural steels at intermediate strain rates. Five steps of strain rate levels (0.001, 1, 10, 100, 200/s) and three steps of temperature levels (LT ($-40^{\circ}C$), RT, and HT ($200^{\circ}C$)) were taken into account for the dynamic tensile tests of three types of marine structural steels: API 2W50 and Classifications EH36 and DH36. The total number of specimens was 180 pieces. It was seen that the effects of dynamic hardening became clearer at LT than at RT. Dynamic strain aging accompanying serrated flow stress curves was also observed from high temperature tests for all kinds of steels. The dynamic hardening factors (DHFs) at the two temperature levels of LT and RT were derived at the three plastic strain levels of 0.05, 0.10, 0.15 from dynamic tensile tests. Meanwhile, no DHFs were found for the high temperature tests because a slight negative strain rate dependency due to dynamic strain aging had occurred. A new formulation to determine material constant D in a Cowper-Symonds constitutive equation is provided as a function of the plastic strain rate, as well as the plastic strain level. The proposed formula is verified by comparing with test flow stress curves, not only at intermediate strain rate ranges but also at high strain rate ranges.

This paper is concerned with the thermo-mechanical behavior and temperature dependent strain rate sensitivity of steel sheet for an auto-body. In order to Identify the temperature dependent strain rate sensitivity of SPRC35R and SPRC45E, uniaxial tension tests are performed with the variation of the strain rates from 0.001/sec to 200/sec, and the variation of environmental temperatures from $-40^{\circ}C\;to\;200^{\circ}C$. The thermo-mechanical response at the quasi-static state is obtained with the static tensile test and at the intermediate strain rate is from the high speed tensile test. The experimental results show that the strain rate sensitivity increases at low temperature and it decreases at high temperature. It means that as the strain rate getting increasing, the variation of flow stress is more sensitive on the temperature. The results also indicates that the material properties of SPRC35R is more depend on the changes of strain rates and temperature than those of SPRC45E.

In this study, the ring tensile test at high temperature was suggested to evaluate the hoop tensile properties of small tube such as the cladding in the nuclear reactor Using the Arsene's ring model, the ring tensile test was performed and the test data were calibrated. From the result of the ring test with strain gauge and the numerical analysis with 1/8 model, LCRR(load-displacement conversion relationship of ring specimen) was determined. We could obtain the hoop tensile properties by means of applying the LCRR to the calibrated data of the ring tensile test. A few difference was observed in view of the shape of fractured surface and the fracture mechanism between at the high temperature and at the room temperature.

In the present study, the tensile properties and dynamic strain aging of an Fe-24.5Mn-4Cr-0.45C alloy were investigated in terms of strain rate. During tensile testing at room temperature, all the stress-strain curves exhibited serrated plastic flows related to dynamic strain aging, regardless of the strain rate. Serration appeared right after yield stress at lower strain rates, while it was hardly observed at high strain rates. On the other hand, strain-rate sensitivity, indicating a general relationship between flow stress and strain rate at constant strain and temperature, changed from positive to negative as the strain increased. The negative strain-rate sensitivity can be explained by the Portevin Le Chatelier effect, which is associated with dynamic strain aging and is dependent on the strain rate because it is very likely that the dynamic strain aging phenomenon in high-manganese steels is involved in the interaction between moving dislocations and point-defect complexes.

중수로 원자로에서 핵심 구조물인 압력관은 합금이 사용되고 있는데, 고온, 고압의 방사선 분위기에서 사용되기 때문에 가동중 변형을 받는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 압력관의 건전성 평가기술을 확보하기 위하여 Zr-2.5wt.% Nb 압력관의 집합조직과 온도 변화에 따른 강도 특성을 조사하였다. 집합조직의 변화는 시편의 채취방향을 달리하여 네 가지의 집합조직 변화를 주었으며, 이들 시편에 대해 상온에서 부터 45$0^{\circ}C$까지 온도를 변화시가면서 인장시험을 실시하였다. 온도가 증가함에 따라 시편의 집합조직과 관계없이 네 종류의 시편 모두가 30$0^{\circ}C$까지는 강도가 직선적으로 감소하는 현상을 보이며, 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 37$0^{\circ}C$ 사이의 온도에서 강도가 약간 증가하는 현상을 보였다. 또한 37$0^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 강도가 다시 직선적으로 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이 같은 현상은 30$0^{\circ}C$ 까지는 프리즘 슬림(-slip)으로 전위가 움직이다가 30$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서부터 37$0^{\circ}C$까지는 피라미드 슬림(-slip)계의 경쟁 상호작용에 의한 추가적인 응력이 필요하여 나타난 현상이라 사료된다. 온도의 변화에 따른 강도와 연신율의 curve에서 30$0^{\circ}C$와 37$0^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 plateaus region과 연신율이 최소값을 갖는 것은 동적변형시효(dynamic strain ageing)현상과 관련이 있는 것으로 생각되나 추가적인 연구가 필요하다. 집합도가 변함에 따라 인장강도는 T(transverse)>L(longitudinal)> 30。> 45 。순으로 나타났으며 이는 slip과 twin의 복합적인 작용에 의한 것으로 해석된다.
