선박건조에 있어서 대형 블록의 조립이 이루어지는 선행 탑재 및 탑재 단계에서 Tank Top과 Upper Deck의 V 개선 용접은 FCAW+SAW의 복합용접이 실시되고 있다. 그러나 가장 범용적 모재 두께인 18~20t의 경우 SAW 시공에만 약 5~6Pass가 소요됨으로써 다급한 진수 일정에 많은 지장을 초래하고 있다. 또한 능률 향상을 목적으로 용착량 증가효과를 얻기 위해 철분말이나 절선와이어를 개선면내에 충진하고 용접을 수행하나 획기적인 용접능률을 기대하기 어렵고 용접사 기량에 따라 용접 결함이 발생될 수 있다. 이에 따라 용접패스 수를 줄이고 결함 발생이 없는 용접기법 개발이 절실히 필요하였다. 이를 위해 매우 간단하고 효율적인 위빙장치를 제작하여 선탑/탑재 아래보기 용접이음에 1~2패스의 SAW 용접법을 개발하여 용접생산성은 물론 용접품질까지 획기적으로 향상시키는 기술 개발을 완료하였다.

$CO_2$ welding is used widely in the field. On the other hand, welding defects occur when welders cannot adjust the current and voltage needed for welding and have to stop working to adjust the current and voltage, causing sudden cooling down of the welding structure inside a vehicle or tank where the control panel is invisible or when work site is far. This study used three types of existing $CO_2$ welders. This also applied SS400 rolled steel for welding structural purposes for remote control torch welding, perform a welding test through v-groove butt welding with a remote control torch and existing $CO_2$ welding torch, conducted visual inspection on the appearance of a welded top bead. In addition, the appearance quality of the welding part was monitored mainly through penetrant testing and a bending test to evaluate the welding defect reduction and the effect on the performance and compatibility by replacing the existing welder.

Ultrasonic pattern recognition is the most effective approach to the problem of discriminating types of flaws in weldments based on ultrasonic flaw signals. In spite of significant progress in the research on this methodology, it has not been widely used in many practical ultrasonic inspections of weldments in industry. Hence, for the convenient application of this approach in many practical situations, we develop an intelligent ultrasonic signature classification software which can discriminate types of flaws in weldments based on their ultrasonic signals using various tools in artificial intelligence such as neural networks. This software shows the excellent performance in an experimental problem where flaws in weldments are classified into two categories of cracks and non-cracks. This performance demonstrates the high possibility of this software as a practical tool for ultrasonic flaw classification in weldments.

The conventional welding technique such as shield metal arc welding has been mostly applied to the piping system of the nuclear power plants. It is well known that this welding technique causes the overheating and welding defects due to the large groove angle of weld. On the other hand, the narrow gap welding(NGW) technique has many merits, for instance, the reduction of welding time, the shrinkage of weld and the small deformation of the weld due to the small groove angle and welding bead width comparing with the conventional welds. These characteristics of NGW affect the deformation behavior and the distribution of welding residual stress of NGW, thus it is believed that the residual stress results obtained from conventional welding procedure may not be applied to structural integrity evaluation of NGW. In this paper, the welding residual stress of NGW was predicted using the nonlinear finite element analysis to simulate the thermal and mechanical effects of the NGW. The present results can be used as the important information to perform the flaw evaluation and to improve the weld procedure of NGW.

이종재료인 2$\frac{1}{4}$Cr-1Mo강과 12Cr-1Mo-V계 강의 용접부의 용접성에 대하여 모재계열의 용접재료와 Inconel계의 용접재료를 사용하여 야금학적인 관점으로부터 미세조직적 특성 및 기계적성질을 중심으로 검토하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 본 연구의 실험범위에 의하면, 내부결함, 균열 등의 용접결함을 발생하지 않는 양호한 용접부를 얻을 수 가 있었다. (2) 광학현미경을 이용한 미세조직의 관찰에 의하면, Inconel계의 용접재료를 제외한 모재계열의 용접재료를 사용하였을 경우, 용융경계부 근방에서 연속 또는 불연속적인 백색의 밴드상이 형성되었다. (3)백색밴드상의 형성부는 인장변형에 의하여 국부적인 수축변형을 일으키나, 파단은 2$\frac{1}{4}$Cr-1Mo강의 모재에서 발생하였으며, 거시적인 인장성질에는 영향을 미치지 않았다.

용접구조물의 파괴는 단순 역학적인 차원을 넘어서 재료공학적 검토와 시공상의 각종 변수를 고려해야만 정확하게 이해할 수가 있으며 방지할 수 있다. 용접도중에 발생되는 미소파괴(균열) 는 적절한 재료의 선정과 적당한 시공법으로 해결할 수 있으며, 사용도중 발생되는 거시적 파 괴는 사용조건에 유의하고 발생된 용접결함을 제거할 수 있다면 방지할 수 있다. 결론적으로 용접구조물의 파괴는 용접도중에 결함을 발생시키지 않는 방법으로 방지하는 것이 가장 효과적 이기 때문에 시공법의 선정 및 실시는 충분한 검토와 주의가 필요하다. 용접품의 파괴현상을 해석하는 데는 현재까지 잘 연구되어진 각종 파괴역학적 및 피로역학적 해석이 적용될 수 있 으나 용접부의 불균일한 조직형성에 따른 기계적 성질의 불균일성과 잔류응력 등을 추가로 고 려해야 하는 것이 약간 다를 뿐이다. 현재 용접부의 취성 및 피로파괴에 대한 다방면의 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있는 형편이며 향후에는 용접구조물의 수명예측을 포함한 가족 파괴해석 기술이 확립될 것으로 생각된다.

Weld defects degrade the strength and safety of astructure and are resulted from the various cases. The complexity of causal relation of weld defects requires an expert for the analysis of weld defects and the measures counter to them. An expert system has the intelligent functions such as the representation of knowledge and the inference. On this research, weld defect are systematically analysed and their causal model is developed. This information is saved to the knowledge base. The suitable inference algorithm for the diagnosis of weld defects is developed and realized with C++ programming.

Socket weldment used to change the flow direction of fluid nay have flaws such as lack of fusion and cracks. Liquid penetrant testing or Radiography testing have been applied as NDT methods for flaw detection of the socket weldment. But it is difficult to detect the flaw inside of the socket weldment with these methods. In order to inspect the flaws inside the socket weldment, a ultrasonic testing method is established and a ultrasonic transducer and automated ultrasonic testing system are developed for the inspection. The automated ultrasonic testing system is based on the portable personal computer and operated by the program based Windows 98 or 2000. The system has a pulser/receiver, 100MHz high speed A/D board, and basic functions of ultrasonic flaw detector using the program. For the automated testing, motion controller board of ISA interface type is developed to control the 4-axis scanner and a real time iC-scan image of the automated testing is displayed on the monitor. A flaws with the size of less than 1mm in depth are evaluated smaller than its actual site in the testing, but the flaws larger than 1mm appear larger than its actual size on the contrary. This tendency is shown to be increasing as the flaw size increases. h reliable and objective testing results are obtained with the developed system, so that it is expected that it can contribute to safety management and detection of repair position of pipe lines of nuclear power plants and chemical plants.
