The present paper provides the elastic stress intensity factors (SIFs) and the crack opening displacements (CODs) of a thick-walled pipe with a slanted axial through-wall crack. For estimating these elastic fracture mechanics parameters, systematic three-dimensional elastic finite element (FE) analyses were performed by considering geometric variables, i.e., thickness of pipe, reference crack length, and crack length ratio, affecting the SIFs and CODs. As for loading condition, the internal pressure was considered. Based on the FE results, the SIFs and CODs of slanted axial through-wall cracks in a thickwalled pipe along the crack front and the wall thickness were calculated. In particular, to calculate the SIFs of a thick-walled pipe with a slanted axial through-wall crack from those of a thick-walled pipe with an idealized axial through-wall crack, a slant correction factor representing the effect of the slant crack on the SIFs was proposed.

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.

Power transmission shafts in rotary wing aircraft use a hollow shaft to reduce weight. We can apply linear elastic fracture mechanics to predict crack propagation behavior. This paper predicted crack growth life of a hollow shaft with a circumferential through-type crack by finite element analysis. A 2D finite element model was created by applying a torsion and forming elements considering cracks. We defined the initial crack length and performed the finite element analysis by increasing the crack length to derive stress intensity factor at crack tips. We defined the length just prior to the stress intensity factor exceeding the fracture toughness as the crack limit length. We calculated the crack limit length using a handbook and numerically integrated the crack growth rate equation to derive growth life of each crack. The growth life of each crack was compared to verify the proposed finite element analysis method.

In the present paper, limit pressures for axial surface cracked pipe are proposed, and a reference stress based J estimation method is also provided based on the proposed limit pressure solutions. Employed cracks are assumed to be constant-depth, internal surface cracks, and wide ranges of variables are considered.

This paper presents an analytical model for calculation of crack widths in reinforced concrete structures. The model is mathematically derived from the actual bond stress-slip relationships between the reinforcement and the surrounding concrete, and the relationships summarized in CEB-FIP Model Code 1990 and Eurocode 2 are employed in this study together with the numerical analysis result of a linear slip distribution along the interface at the stabilized cracking stage. With these, the actual strains of the steel and the concrete are integrated respectively along the embedment length between the adjacent cracks so as to obtain the difference in the axial elongation. The model is applied to the test results available in literatures, and the predicted values are shown to be in good agreement with the experimentally measured data.

For the enhancement of ECT reliability on the primary water stress corrosion cracks of nuclear steam generator tubes, of which the occurrence is on the increase, it is important to comprehend the signal characteristics on crack morphology and to select an appropriate probe type. In this paper, the sizing accuracy and the detectability for the inner wall axial cracks of tubes were quantitatively evaluated using the following specimens: the electric discharge machined notches and the corrosion cracks which were developed on the operating steam generator tubes. The difference of eddy current signal characteristics between pancake and axial coil were also Investigated. The results obtained from this study provide a useful information for more precise evaluation on the inner wall axial tracks oi stram generator tubes.

A circumferential guided wave method was developed to detect the axial crack on the bent feeder pipe. Dispersion curves of circumferential guided waves were calculated as a function of curvature of the pipe. In the case of thin plate, i.e. infinite curvature, as the frequency increases, the $S_0$ and $A_0$ mode coincide and eventually become Rayleigh wave mode. In the case of pipe, however, as the curvature increases, the lowest modes do not coincide even in the high frequencies. Based on the analysis, a rocking technique using angle beam transducer was applied to detect an axial defect in the bent region of PHWR feeder pipe. Based on the analysis of experimenal data for artificial notches, the vibration modes of each signal were identified. It was found that the notches with the depth of )0% of wall thickness can be detected with the method.

This paper proposes elastic stress intensity factors and crack opening displacements (CODs) for a slanted axial through-wall cracked cylinder under an internal pressure based on detailed 3-dimensional (3-D) elastic finite element (FE) analyses. Based on the elastic FE results, the stress intensity factors along the crack front and CODs through the thickness at the center of the crack were provided. These values were also tabulated for three selected points, i.e., the inner and outer surfaces and at the mid-thickness. The present results can be used to evaluate the crack growth rate and leak rate of a slanted axial through-wall crack due to stress corrosion cracking and fatigue. Moreover, the present results can be used to perform a detailed Leak-Before-Break analysis considering more realistic crack shape development.

증기 발생기 전열관의 파열 사고는 지난 20년 동안 2년마다 1개씩의 비율로 발생되어왔고 최근 몇 년간은 매년 발생되고 있는 추세이다(3). 전열관의 파열 사고는 응력부식균열, 피로 그리고 마멸 등의 원인에 의해서 발생되고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 초기 발전소에서 균열의 발생 및 성장은 축 방향 균열에 국한하여 관심을 가졌었으나 최근 원주 방향 균열에 의한 사고가 발생되면서 원주 방향 균열에 대해 관심을 가지게 되었다.(중략)
