주편은 1차 냉각 지역인 수냉 몰드를 통과한 후, 2차 냉각 지역에서 guide roll, pinch roll 그리고 driven roll등에 의해 반복적인 압축하중을 받고 있으며, roll과 roll사이에서는 철정압에 의한 주편 bulging 현상이 발생하고 주편의 표면은 인장응력을 받게 된다. 특히 연속주조 중 주편의 변형기구가 단순 탄소성 변형 이 아닌 creep에 의한 변형임을 고려할 때, 2차 냉각 지역에서 주편의 표면은 전술한 압축 및 인장변형 이 반복되는 저주기 고온 피로 환경을 거침을 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄소함량에 따른 주편의 bulging시의 크랙 발생에 미치는 저주기 고온 피로의 효과를 조사하였다. 또한, 용체화 처리 온도에서 시험 온도까지의 냉각 속도의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 1$^{\circ}C$/s 및 1$0^{\circ}C$/s로 냉각 속도를 변화시켜 열간 연성 곡선을 작성하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 저탄소강의 경우는 저주기 피로의 영향이 관찰되지 않았으며, 중탄소강의 경우, 저온에서는 저주기 피로로 인해 열간 연성이 증가하였으나, 고온에서는 변형유기 페라이트의 생성으로 인해 열간 연성 이 감소하였다. 고탄소강의 경우는 저주기 피로로 인하여 열간 연성이 모든 온도 구간에서 증가하였다. 또한 용체화 처리후 시험 온도까지의 냉각 속도가 감소함에 따라 열간 연성이 증가하였는데, 이는 입 계 석출물의 조대화로 인해 열간 연성이 증가하는 것으로 판단된다.

Upon installing a seismic isolation device on a nuclear power plant, the device takes on the suppression of seismic loads. This is expected to bring about a larger displacement than what is seen prior to the installation of the seismic isolation device. Depending on the displacement change, the seismic risk for some equipment can increase. Particularly in case of the piping system, which is used for connecting the structure isolated from seismic events with common structures, the seismic risk is expected to rise significantly. In this study, the limit state of the steel pipe tee, which is a vulnerability part of the nuclear power plant piping system, was defined as leakage, and an in-plane cyclic loading test was conducted. As it is difficult to measure the moment and rotation of the steel pipe tee using the conventional sensors, an image signal was used. This study proposed a leakage line and low-cycle fatigue curves using the relationship between the moment and the rotation of a 3-inch steel pipe tee.

In this study, a strain-controlled fatigue test of widely-used 316L stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties was conducted, in order to assess its fatigue life. Low cycle fatigue behaviors were analyzed at room temperature, as a function of the strain amplitude and strain ratio. The material was hardened during the initial few cycles, and then was softened during the long post period, until failure occurred. The fatigue life decreased with increasing strain amplitude. Masing behavior in the hysteresis loop was shown under the low strain amplitude, whereas the high strain amplitude caused non-Masing behavior and reduced the mean stress. Low cycle fatigue life prediction based on the cyclic plastic energy dissipation theory, considering Masing and non-Masing effects, showed a good correlation with the experimental results.

The air circuit breaker (ACB) with the spring-actuated mechanism was studied to improve the fatigue-proof characteristics of its link. The low-cycle fatigue fracture phenomenon occurred on the critical link, called h-link, of ACB from the repeated rapid closing and opening operations. To analyze the cause of failure, dynamic FE-analysis on the b-link part of ACB was performed considering tile velocity and acceleration of the links per time as boundary conditions, which were obtained by using ADAMS. Also, the S-N curve obtained by experiments was used to investigate requirement on the fatigue-proof characteristics. Then, to reduce the maximum tensile stress on the h-link, three types of h-link were examined and one of them was selected.

The life of a component decreases when it was exposed at the extreme condition. A turbine blade of a turbopump used for a liquid rocket engine is operated under the environment of high temperature and pressure, and experienced high centrifugal force. Thus the durability of the turbopump operated under the these conditions become lower than expected because of the severe fatigue and creep influence. The damage of the turbine being considered the fatigue and the creep influence is estimated to ensure the durability of turbopump turbine. ABAQUS/CAE and MSC.Fatigue are used for the fatigue analysis, and Larson-Miller parameter and robinson's rule are used for the creep analysis. In this paper, comparison and analysis of the fatigue and the creep influence were performed to ensure the life expectancy of turbopump turbine.
