Critical defects in pressure vessels and pipes are generally found in the form of a semi-elliptical surface crack, and the analysis of which is consequently an important problem in engineering fracture mechanics. Furthermore, in addition to the traditional single parameter K or J-integral, the second parameter like T-stress should be measured to quantify the constraint effect. In this work, the validity of the line-spring finite element is investigated by comparing line-spring J-T solutions to the reference 3D finite element J-T solutions. A full 3D-mesh generating program for semi-elliptical surface cracks is employed to provide such reference 3D solutions. Then some structural characteristics of the surface-cracked T and L-joints are studied by mixed mode line-spring finite element. Negative T-stresses observed in T and L-joints indicate the necessity of J-T two parameter approach for analyses of surface-cracked T and L-joints.

항공기 엔진은 비행 중 고온, 고압과 터빈 축의 회전으로 인한 응력이 발생한다. 이러한 하중으로 인해 구조 내/외부에 미세한 균열이 발생할 수 있다. 이는 구조적 결함으로 이어져 부품의 수명에 악영향을 줄 수 있다. 이러한 현상을 사전에 방지하고자 균열에 대한 유한요소해석이 진행된다. 하지만 이 과정은 반복적인 균열 모델링이 이루어져 많은 시간과 노력을 수반한다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 유한요소모델 기반의 균열 모델링 기법을 개발하였다. 균열 모델링에는 점 간의 연결에 제한을 가지고 공간을 삼각 분할하는 Constrained Delaunay Triangulation(CDT)을 사용하였다. 반타원 균열을 가지는 평판과 원통형 용기에 대한 응력확대계수 비교를 통해 기법을 검증하였으며, 균열 해석에 유용함을 보였다.

In particle or short-fiber reinforced composites, cracking or debonding of the reinforcements cause a significant damage mode because the damaged reinforcements lose load carrying capacity. The average stress in the inhomogeneity represents its load carrying capacity, and the difference between the average stresses of the intact and broken inhomogeneities indicates the loss of load carrying capacity due to cracking damage. The composite in damage process contains intact and broken reinforcements in a matrix. An incremental constitutive relation of discontinuously-reinforced composites including the progressive cracking damage of the reinforcements have been developed based on the Eshelby's equivalent inclusion method and Mori-Tanaka's mean field concept. Influence of the cracking damage on the stress-strain response of the composites is demonstrated.

The theoretical analyses for stresses induced in axial direction in the buried pipelines are reviewed. The influences of the axially directed stresses on the surface elliptical crack are studied in detail and thus some engineering technical informations are provided to use reliability assessment of buried pipelines. The change in temperature, the effect of inner pressure and soil friction in the buried pipeline constrained in axial direction are included to determine the axial stresses in the buried pipeline. Furthermore, the stress induced by the pipeline bending are also considered. The stress intensity factors calculated by two models such as a simple plane crack and an elliptical surface crack for a circumferential surface elliptical crack are compared.

This paper provides two types of engineering J estimation equations for cylinders with finite internal axial surface cracks under internal pressure. The first type is the so-called GE/EPRI type J estimation equation based on Ramberg-Osgood materials. Based on detailed 3-D FE results the GE/EPRI-type J estimation equation along the crack front is proposed and validated for Ramberg-Osgood materials. For more general application, the developed GE/EPRI-type solutions are then re-formulated based on the reference stress concept. The proposed reference stress based J estimation equation has good agreement between the FE results and the proposed reference stress based J estimation provides confidence in the use of the proposed method for elastic-plastic fracture mechanics of pressurised piping

The multi-point procedure is developed to predict the shape change of a semi-elliptical surface crack during stable fatigue crack growth. 3-D stress intensity factors along a crack front are calculated using the simplified 3-D J-intergral. Crack growth rate coefficient in the Paris law is assumed to be constant along the crack growth. Crack growth rate is set to be the distance between the two parallel tangent lines on the two semi-elliptic crack fronts before and after crack growth.

본 논문에서는 여러 연구자들이 반타원형 표면균열에 대한 응력확대계수의 수 정계수(correction factor)을 이론해석, 수치해석 및 실험해석 등을 통하여 구했는데, 그 결과는 서로가 5∼100%의 차이를 나타내고 있는 것이다. 이 때문에 표면균열에 대한 연구보고는 다른 분야에 비하여 비교적 적은 편이며, 현재까지 펴면균열의 피로 성장거동에 대한 정열이 설정되어 있지 못한 실정인 것이다. 이에 저자들은 표면균 열의 피로성장거동에 대한 다각적인 연구계획을 추진하고 있는 중이며, 본 보고서는 그 제1단계 연구로서, 초기 표면균열의 크기가 피로균열성장거동에 미치는 영향을 규 명하기 위한 실험적인 연구결과이다.

저탄소 친환경에너지 정책이 진행으로 인해 수소 공급을 위한 수소충전소의 증가됨에 따라 사고발생 위험도 커지고 있다. 실제 압력용기는 제조과정에서 발생할 수 있는 노치와 기공, 개재물 등의 결함이 존재할 수 있다. 따라서 내압이 작용하고 있는 압력용기에 균열이 존재할 경우에 대한 압력용기의 건전성을 평가하는 것은 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 표면균열이 있는 수소충전용 압력용기의 구조안전성을 평가하기 위해 3차원 유한요소해석을 이용하였으며, 표면균열의 형상은 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 반타원 형상을 적용하여 균열의 형상 및 응력비에 대한 균열진전 특성을 비교하였다. 향후, 이러한 결과를 이용하여 파괴역학을 고려한 압력용기의 잔존수명 예측에 활용할 예정이다.

In recent years, the subject of remaining life assessment has drawn considerable attention in chemical plants, where various structural components typically operate at high temperature an pressure. Thus a life prediction methodology accounting for high temperature creep fracture is increasingly needed for the components. Critical defects in such structures are generally found in the form of semi-elliptical surface crack, and the analysis of which is consequently an important problem in engineering fracture mechanics. On this background, we first develop an auto mesh generation program for detailed 3-D finite element analyses of axial and circumferential semi-elliptical surface cracks in a piping system. A high temperature creep fracture parameter C-integral is obtained from the finite element analyses of generated 3-D models. Post crack growth module is further appended here to calculate the amount of crack growth. Finally the remaining lives of surface cracked pipes for various analytical parameters are assessed using the developed life assessment program.

One of major problems in analyzing failure mechanism of real components is the accurate measurement of crack size and shape. The DCPD(Direct Current Potential Drop) method has been widely used for the crack measurement of a structure and finite element analysis has been used for the derivation of calibration equations, which relates the potential drop with the crack depth. In this paper, finite element analyses were performed for semi-elliptical surface cracks with various crack shapes(a/c) and crack depths(a/t). As a result, a calibration equation has been derived for the measurement of a semi-elliptical surface crack in wide plates. Analytical results are compared with experimental results to evaluate the validity and the applicability of the derived equation. The proposed method is expected to provide efficient and accurate measurement of a surface crack during crack growth.
