충격하중을 받는 시험편 높이의 1/4 길이의 notch를 가진 3점 굽힘시험편들의 기계적 거동에 관한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 하고 이 시뮬레이션에 대한 실험적 검증도 하여 그 타당성을 입증하였다. 시험편들의 양쪽 가장자리(지지점)에서 작용되어지는 여러 가지의 하중속도에 대한 경우들과 탄소성 von Mises 재질인 모델들을 시뮬레이션에 포함시켰으며 이들에 대한 결과들을 간극 개구 변위, 반력, 크랙선단 개구 변위 및 변형률등이 속도에 의존되는 재질(점소성 재질)에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교하였다. 또한 여러가지의 동적 하중을 받는 상황하에서의 안정성이 본 연구의 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비교되었으며 그 차이점들이 규명되었다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of loading variables on fatigue crack opening behavior, using structural steel SS41. To use various stress ratios, three kinds of the methods varying stress ratio were used; .DELTA.P const., P$_{max}$ const., and P$_{min}$ const.. To measure the opening load, the direct measuring method which measures the distance between two micro indentations 20 .mu.m behind crack tip and the elastic compliance method were used. As the results of present study, the following conclusions are obtained. First, using the direct measuring method, it was possible to measure the COD at any location behind crack tip. Second, as measuring point becomes farther from crack tip, opening load becomes smaller. Third, the acceleration of da/dN near notch is due to crack opening behavior. Finally, opening ratio is a function of not only R, but .DELTA.K.K.K.

Fracture behavior of pre-cracked compact tension specimens made of AISI 4130 steel was investigated using acoustic emission (AE) and ultrasonic C-scan measurements. While each specimen was loaded up to a certain level, various acoustic emission parameters were recorded together with the crack opening displacement (COD). An elastic-plastic finite element analysis was performed to calculate COD and the damage (plastic) zone size ahead of crack tip. Ultrasonic C-scans, in a pulse-echo, immersion mode, were done for mapping the damage zone size. The agreement between the finite element results and the measured COD was satisfactory. Based on AE results, the test specimens were found to show ductile behavior. The slope of the total ringdown counts vs. COD curve was useful to determine the crack initiation. The preliminary C-scan images showed evidence of changes in the amplitude of ultrasonic signal in the damaged region, and the shape and size of the damage zone matched qualitatively with the finite element results. A further work on the damage zone sizing was also pointed out.

Dynamic crack propagation in ductile steel is investigated by means of impact loaded 3 point bending specimens. The specimen has the size of $320{\times}75\;mm$ with a thickness of 10 mm. One static and two dynamic experiments with impact velocities of 30.2 m/s and 45.2 m/s are carried out. High speed photography is used to obtain crack growth and crack tip opening displacement data. Direct measurement of the relative rotation of the two specimen halves is made by using Moire interference pattern. The experiments indicate no or only a slight influence of the loading rate on the crack propagation.
