The effect of weld improvement on the corroded fatigue life of welded structures was investigated. Toe grinding, TIG dressing and weld profiling were used as the geometric improvement methods. Fatigue tests under the corroded condition in artificial seawater were carried out to investigate the corrosion fatigue behavior of API 2W Gr.50T steel plate produced by POSCO. The test results in weld improved conditions were compared with those in as-welded condition. The test results were also compared with the design curves in UK DEn Class F. Corroded fatigue life of weld improved specimens was longer than that of as-welded specimen. Especially, the corroded fatigue life exceeded the mean SN curve in air of UK DEn Class F.

In this study the fatigue crack growth behavior was investigated for the surface cracks in aluminum alloy A5083-O plate and its weldment. Several kinds of specimens were tested at room temperature. The Eccentric specimens(E1.0, E2.5) subjected to combined stresses(tension+bending) were tested and the welded specimens with weld toes(TOE1, TOE2) were tested in order to verify the method to consider the stress concentration such as weld toe. It was ascertained that the surface crack growth property in the weld toe could be predicted by the corrected Pang's equation proposed in this study.

Direct nonlinear finite element analysis was carried out using nonlinear kinematic hardening model which was calibrated based on the experimentally determined material properties to obtain notch stress-strain state under cyclic load. By comparing numerical results and experimental data, conclusion was made on how well analysis results match physical phenomenon. Also, suggestion was made on what material curve should be used in conjunction with traditional Neuber/Glinka's rule to take into account the effect of material heterogeneity in its application to welded joint.

소구경 배관 소켓 용접부의 고주기 피로특성윽 평가하고 피로 균열의 발생을 음향방출법을 이용하여 실시간 모니터링 하였다. 스테인리스 316L강 시험편은 가스텅스텐아크용접 공정으로 루트부에 결함이 없는 시험편과 용입불량 결함이 있는 시험편으로 준비하였다. 피로파단은 고응력 일때는 토우부, 상대적으로 저응력일 때는 루트부에서 일어났다. 피로시험동안 음향방출 카운트가 급격히 증가하는 시점을 균열의 발생 싸이클 ($N_i$)로 정의하였고 방사선투과법과 전자현미경을 이용하여 피로균열 생성 싸이클 전과 후에서 균열을 확인하였다. 소켓용접배관의 굽힘피로 손상 진단 및 감시를 위해 균열의 존재와 파괴모드 그리고 균열의 발생 싸이클에 관한 연구를 수행하였다.

용접에 의한 가스설비, 교량, 선박 등 강 구조물의 접합 방법은 대부분 십자형이나 T형의 필릿 용접으로 이루어지며 구조물의 형상과 용도에 따라 완전 용입 또는 불완전 용입 상태로 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 십자형 필릿용접 구조물에 대하여 재료 두께별 용입 깊이에 따른 피로 균열 특성을 파악하였고, 그 결과로부터 무한수명 영역내에서의 안전 설계응력에 대하여 고찰하였다. 미 용입 길이가 길면 루트 부 파괴가 되어 무한 수명 영역은 작고 미 용입 길이가 짧으면 토우부 파괴가 되어 무한 수명 영역은 크게 나타났다. 3층 용접한 재료 두께 20mm의 경우가 2층 용접한 재료 두께 10mm, 15mm의 경우보다 미세한 페라이트 침상 조직을 더 많게 형성시켜 노치 인성을 증가시키므로 서 피로강도와 무한 수명을 더 향상시킨 것으로 나타났다.

Fatigue crack propagation life of weld toe crack through residual stress field was estimated with Elber's crack concept. Propagation of weld toe crack is heavily influenced by residual stress caused by welding process, so it is essential to take into account the effect of residual stress on the propagation life of weld toe crack. Fatigue crack at transverse and longitudinal weld toe was studied respectively, which represent typical weld joint in ship structure. Numerical and experimental studies are performed for both cases. Residual stress near weldment was estimated through nonlinear thermo-elasto-plastic finite element method, and residual stress intensity factor with Glinka's weight function method. Effective stress intensity factor was calculated with Newman-Forman-de Koning-Henriksen equation which is based on Dugdale strip yield model in estimating crack closure level U at different stress ratio. Calculated crack propagation life coincided well with experimental results.

This Study is to investigate the influence of weld residual stresses on the fatigue crack growth behaviors in pressure ves-sel reinforcement. In order to perform this study, the automatically welded specimens are prepared. The material is ASTM A516 grade 60 steel used in pressure vessel mainly. For pad-on-plate of skip welding continuous welding and PWHT specimen, fatigue crack initiation is generally initiat-ed at weld starting and end toe zone, and ruptured at weld starting toe zone, Fatigue life if pad-on-plate continuous speci-men is increased more than that of pad-on-plate skip fillet welding specimene about 85% under low load, about 20% under high load, and decreased than that of two-pad continuous welding specimen about 85%. In da/dN-$\Delta$ Κ curve under low load, pad-on-plate skip fillet welding specimen showed retardation on the initial crack, and the fatigue crack growth rate at the low region of $\Delta$Κ greater specimene E(3.8{\times}10^{-6}$mm/cycle). And the fatigue life of welding specimen was smaller than that of PWHT specimen.

Recently, a mesh-size insensitive structural stress definition that provides a stress state at weld toe with relatively larger mesh size compared to conventional approaches has been proposed. The structural stress definition is based on the elementary structural mechanics theory and provides an effective measure of a stress state in front of weld toe. In this study, as an experimental validation of structural stress method in obtaining the fatigue strength of weldments, a series of fatigue test has carried out for longi-web connections, which are representative of ship-like structures. Based on the result from this study, it is expected to develop a more precise fatigue strength evaluation technique and to reduce time and cost associated with the fatigue design of ship and offshore structures.
