In this study, the probabilistic internal pressure fragility analysis was performed by using the non-linear finite element analysis method. The target structure is one of the containment buildings of typical domestic pressurized water reactors(PWRs). The 3-dimensional finite element model of the containment building was developed with considering the large equipment hatches. To consider uncertainties in the material properties and structural capacities, we performed the sensitivity analysis of the ultimate pressure capacity with respect to the variation of four important uncertain parameters. The results of the sensitivity analysis were used to the selection of the probabilistic variables and the determination of their probabilistic parameters. To reflect the present condition of the tendon pre-stressing force, the data of the pre-stressing force acquired from the in-service inspections of tendon forces were used for the determination of the median value. Two failure modes(leak, rupture) were considered and their limit states were defined to assess the internal pressure fragility of target containment building. The internal pressure fragilities for each failure mode were evaluated in terms of median internal pressure capacity, high confidence low probability of failure(HCLPF) capacity, and fragility curves with respect to the confidence levels. The HCLPF capacity was 115.9 psig for leak failure mode, and 125.0 psig for rupture failure mode.

최근 자동차에서 경량화의 방안으로써 높은 강성을 요구하는 고장력강 사용이 증대 되고 있다. 그러나 고장력강은 저항 점용접 시 일반 강에 비해 높은 전류를 요구하며 계면파단 및 expulsion 발생이 용이하기 때문에 가용 전류 구간이 좁은 특성을 가진다. 많은 연구자들이 hold time, tempering 등의 process를 이용하여 고장력강의 저항 점용접성을 개선하고자 하였으나 생산 공정라인에 적용하기는 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 용접 공정 변수의 변화에 따른 용접성과 전극 형상 변화을 통한 고장력강 점 용접성 향상에 대한 연구를 실시 하였다. 고장력강의 점 용접성 비교하기 위해 표준 전극(S1)과 인위적으로 가공한 전극(M1)을 사용하였으며, 실험에 사용된 판재는 두께 1.4mm의 DP590이며, 그 결과 표준전극(S1) 보다 가공 전극(M1)의 가용 전류 구간이 0.5kA 정도 넓은 것으로 확인 되었다. 두 전극을 사용한 점용접 시험편들의 인장전단강도를 비교 해보면 표준전극(S1)을 적용한 점용접 시 인장전단강도는 KS B 0850 기준에 만족하나 계면 파단이 발생 하였다. 가공 전극(M1)을 적용한 점용접 시 인장전단강도는 규격 기준에 만족하나 버튼 파단이 발생 하였다. 두 전극을 적용한 점용접부 형상 및 용접부 온도 분포에대해 저항점용접 시뮬레이션 프로그램(SORPAS)을 이용하여 실험 결과 값과 비교 분석하였고 파단모드의 변화에 대한 원인 분석을 도출 하였다.

A failure criterion must be considered in each failure mode and loading condition to provide easy determining strength parameters, flexibility and rational simplicity. In this study, new failure criterion was developed by introducing equivalent strength under biaxial loading of tension and torsion. The experimental results showed that the equivalent biaxial strength has a power law relation with respect to a parameter, cos($tan^{-1}R_b$). Failure strength under biaxial loadings could be predicted as a function of tensile strength, torsional strength and biaxial ratio. The scattering of experimental data could be predicted using a Weibull distribution function and the concept of equivalent biaxial strength. Also, in this study, a fatigue theory was developed based on a plane stress model which enabled the S-N curve for combined stress states to be predicted from the S-N data for uniaxial loading. The prediction models can be predicted a biaxial strength and fatigue life of general laminated composite naterials under multi-axial loadings.

In this study, the flexural characteristics of reinforced polymer concrete T-beams strengthened with GFRP, typically used for bridges and parking structures, are investigated. A method to determine the flexural failure mode of reinforced polymer concrete T-beams comprised of compression failure (CF), tension failure (TF), and fiber sheet failure (FF) for different levels of GFRP strengthening is proposed. Moreover, the present study provides a formula to calculate the design flexural strength for each failure mode. In reinforced polymer concrete T-beams strengthened with GFRP, an ideal failure mode can be achieved when the failure occurs in the following order: 1) yield of steel reinforcement, 2) failure of GFRP, and 3) compression failure of concrete. In the case of FF mode, due to GFRP failure before the polymer concrete crushing in compression region, a concept of equivalent rectangular block based on the ultimate limit state of concrete should not be used. Thus, this study suggests an idealized stress-strain curve for polymer concrete and finds parameters for stress block, ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ based on the strain distribution in polymer concrete. Furthermore, the present study suggests an aspect ratio of 2.5 by examining the compressive stress distribution and design flexural strength characteristics for different aspect ratio of T-beams. This study also provides a design flexural strength formula, and validates its acceptability based on experiment and theoretical analysis.

With Pb-free solder joints containing Sn-Ag-Cu-based ternary alloys (Sn-1.0 wt.%Ag-0.5Cu and Sn-4.0Ag-0.5Cu) and Sn-Ag-Cu-In-based quaternary alloys (Sn-1.0Ag-0.5Cu-1.0In, Sn-1.2Ag-0.5Cu-0.4In, Sn-1.2Ag-0.5Cu-0.6In, and Sn-1.2Ag-0.7Cu-0.4In), fracture-mode change, shear strengths, and fracture energies were observed and measured under a high-speed shear test of 500 mm/s. The samples in each composition were prepared with as-reflowed ones or solid-aged ones at $125^{\circ}C$ to 500 h. As a result, it was observed that ductile or quasi-ductile fracture modes occurs in the most of Sn-Ag-Cu-In samples. The happening frequency of a quasi-ductile fracture mode showed that the Sn-Ag-Cu-In joints possessed ductile fracture properties more than that of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu in the high-speed shear condition. Moreover, the Sn-Ag-Cu-In joints presented averagely fracture energies similar to those of Sn-Ag-Cu joints. While maximum values in the fracture energies were measured after the solid aging for 100 h, clear decreases in the fracture energies were observed after the solid aging for 500 h. This result indicated that reliability degradation of the Sn-Ag-Cu-In solder joints might accelerate from about that time.

The pipe fracture tests were performed on 102mm-Sch.80 carbon steel pipe with various local wall thinning shapes, in order to understand failure behavior of thinned pipe. Pipe specimens were subjected to monotonic bending moment, using 4-points loading system, under internally pressurized condition. From the results of experiment, the failure mode, load carrying capacity, and deformability of local wall thinning pipe were investigated. Failure mode of thinned pipe depended on magnitude of internal pressure and thinning length as well as loading direction and thinning depth and angle. The variation in load carrying capacity and deformability of thinned pipe with length of thinned area was determined by stress type appled to thinning region and circumferential thinning angle. Also, the effect of internal pressure on failure behavior was dependent on failure mode of thinned pipe, and it promoted crack occurrence and mitigated local buckling at thinned area.

It is known that test methods to evaluate solder joint reliability are die shock test, die shear test, 3points bending test, and thermal shock test. The present study investigated the effects of failure mode on 3 types (as-reflowed, $85^{\circ}C$/85%RH treatment, and $150^{\circ}C$/10hr aging) of solder joints for flip-chip BGA package by using various test methods. The test methods and configurations are reported in detail, i.e. die shock, die shear, 3points bending, and thermal shock test. We focus on the failure mode of solder joints under various tests. The test results indicate that die shock and die shear test method can reveal brittle fracture in flip-chip ball grid array (FCBGA) packages with higher sensitivity.

This paper contains the experimental results on strengthening effect of RC beams strengthened with NSM CFRP reinforcement and various strengthening details. A total of 14 beams have been tested to analyze strengthening effects of NSMR with various reinforcement details. Variables were cross-sectional shape of CFRP reinforcements, strengthening areas, grooves the number and location etc. Test results revealed that failure modes of NSMR showed two types. One was bond failure at interface between concrete and filler and the other was CFRP rupture. Also, failure mode of specimens with two grooves occurred premature bond failure because of superposition of failure surfaces at concrete around grooves. failure mode of MI specimens considered the equivalent section have changed bond failure to CFRP rupture and CFRP efficiency has improved 83% to 100%.

레이저 용접은 고밀도 에너지빔을 이용하는 용접방법으로 아크용접에 비해 빠른 용접과 깊은 용입이 가능하며, 낮은 열이력을 가지는 장점이 있다. 때문에 열에 의해 연화되는 고강도강의 용접에 큰 이점을 가지고 있다. 차체경량화 추세와 더불어 차량에 고강도강의 적용이 늘어나고 있는데 충돌시 차량 구조를 유지시켜주는 범퍼나 B-필러와 같은 부품에 적용되는 무도금 보론 합금강과 알루미늄 코팅 보론 합금강은 핫스템핑(Hot Stamping) 기술에 의해 제조된 소재로 약 1.5GPa의 인장강도를 가진다. 알루미늄 코팅 보론 합금강의 경우 제조공정과 이송 중 소재 표면산화에 의한 산화철발생 또는 표면 탈탄 현상을 방지하기 위해 알루미늄 코팅 처리를 하는데 이러한 코팅층이 용접시 용접부의 물성을 저하시키는 역할을 한다고 보고되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 1.5GPa급 무도금 보론 합금강과 알루미늄 코팅 보론 합금강을 대상으로 레이저 용접을 적용하여 용접부 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 실험은 겹치기 형상으로 Fiber Laser, Disk Laser를 적용하여 진행하였으며 빔Size, 용접속도, Gap등을 변경하며 해당조건에서의 용입특성, 파단모드, 기계적특성 등을 알아보았다.
