It is necessary to evaluate the fatigue behavior of rail steel under the multi-axial stress state to assure the railway vehicle's safety. For this purpose, the stress analysis to investigate the crack initiation criteria, static failure and fatigue behavior under mixed-mode are performed. The stress analysis results show that the initiation of the transverse fissure depends on the maximum shear stress below the surface. For the mixed mode, the fatigue crack growth behavior which is represented by the projection crack length and comparative S.I.F, ${\Delta}K_v$, shows the more conservative results. Also, its rate is lower than that of the case of the mode I, and this difference decreases with increasing the stress ratio, R.

기계나 구조물 파괴의 대부분은 노치부를 기점으로 하여 발생하기 때문에 첨단복합재료를 노지부 재로서 안전하면서도 경제적으로 사용하기 위해서는 각종 조건하에 있어서 강도특성을 명확히 하는 것은 대단히 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 노치를 갖는 복합재료를 이용하여 각종조건하에서 강도특성평가실험을 행하였으 며, 얻어진 결과를 종합하면 다음과 같다. (1) 첨단복합재료 노치재는 試驗片의 幾可學的 形狀과는 관계없이 노치반경 p만에 의해 결정되는 최대탄성응력 $\sigma_{max}$일정의 條件下에서 破t짧된다. (2) 破斷時 최소단면에서의 공칭응력 $\sigma_{c}$와 응력집중계수 $K_{t}$와의 관계에 있어서,$\sigma_{c}$의 값이 $K_{t}$의 증대와 더불어 떨어지고 있는 부분과, $K_{t}$와 관계없이 거의 일정하게 되고 있는 부분으로 나누어지는 現象은 노치재의 回轉굽힘 또는 인장압축파열에서 보여지는 현상과 外觀上 對應하고 있다. 즉, 정적파괴와 피로파괴는 파괴의 양상이 비슷하다 (3) PEN수지단체의 경우, 피로균열발생은 점발생적 피로균열이 최대탄성응력에 의해 지배되며, 노치에 만감하며,균열전파수명은전수명에 비해 상당히 짧다. (4) 단탄소섬유강화복합재료의 경우, 피로균열은 섬유端에 응력이 집중하기 때문에 일반적으로 섬유端에서 아주 빠른 시기에 발생하지만, 섬유가 피로균열진전에 대해 방해물로 작용하기때문에 아주 천천히 전파한다. (5) 短탄소鐵維는 피로균열발생에 대해서는 負의 강화작용 전수명의 극히 초기단계에 피로균열 발생을, 피로균열전파에 대해서는 正의 강화작용을 한다. (6) 단탄소섬유를 PEN에 강화함으로 인해 정적강도 보다 피로강도에 더 큰 강화효과를 초래했으며, 선형노치역학의 개녀은 첨단 복합재료의 강도평가에 대단히 유효했다.

The constant amplitude loading and 100% single overloading fatigue studies of domestic high tensile 7075-T73 aluminum alloy were performed to exmine the effect of specimen thickness and its mechanisms on fatigue crack growth behavior. The stage II fatigue crack growth rates tend to increase with decreasing specimen thickness under constant amplitude loading condition and this has relation with stress intensity factors and plastic zone size. The amount of retardation by an overload increased with decreasing specimen thickness when the crack depth and baseline stress intensity factors were constant. The crack depth is one of major factors which affect retardation phenomena by an overload and the amount of retardation increase with decreasing the crack depth. Its main mechanisms are crack closure and decreasing of K at the crack tip by branching and deflection of crack. And they are affected by near surface more severely than central portion of specimen.

By using the relation between stress intensity factor and AE parameter, new approach method for assessing the crack length and detectability of crack was proposed. Laboratory experiment was carried out to identify AE characteristics of fatigue cracks for compact tension specimen. The relationship between a stress intensity factor and AE signals activity as well as conventional AE parameter analysis was discussed. As a result, the features of specific parameter such as the length of crack growth the AE energy, the AE peak amplitude, and the cumulative AE hits, showed the almost same trend in their increase as the number of fatigue cycle increased. From the comparisons of peak amplitude and AE energy with stress intensity factor, it was verified that the higher stress intensity factors generated AE signals with higher peak amplitude and a larger number of AE counts. If we can get more reliable database for the relation between AE parameters and stress intensity factor, this approach will provide a good information for evaluating both the existence of crack and the minimum detectable size of crack.

We investigated the fatigue crack propagation of base metal, weld metal and heat attected zone in 316L stainless steel. And we analysed acoustic emission signals during the fatigue test by time-frequency analysis method. The specimens of weld metal and HAZ had longer fatigue life and slower rate of crack propagation better than base metal. And as a result of time-frequency was 200-300 kHz was obtained by fatigue crack propagation and 500 kHz was obtained by dimple and separate of inclusion.

The stress state acting on mechanical parts and structures is generally mixed stress. This complex stress state, which is subject to changes in the environment, will produce many. Cars running on roads with different road conditions will subject the automotive parts to combined stress state. In the x direction and the y direction, a different amplitude and frequency of the fatigue load can be present. However, the load amplitude for Mode I and Mode II in a 2-axis fatigue test is limited to a constant ratio; the load frequency is always the same for any mode. In this paper, it is verified how the variation of the load frequency for mode II affects the behavior of fatigue crack propagation under mixed mode.

In this paper, the effect of the compressive residual stresses was obtained at the test conditions of the higher temperature than the ambient temperature. The examination was performed with the CT specimen result of the material(JISG SUP9) which is being commonly used for the marine engine parts and the ocean structures. As a result, the test conditions at the higher temperature were acquired considering the peak values of the compressive residual stresses of the specimens and the effect on the fatigue crack propagation speed da／dN in stage II and the threshold stress intensity factor range Δth in stage I. Also the material constant C and the fatigue crack propagation index m in the formula of Paris Law da／dN＝C (ΔK)$^{m}$ were suggested to estimate the dependence on the test temperature.

The lightness of components required in automobile and machinery industry is requiring high strength of components. In particular manufacturing process and new materials development for solving the fatigue fracture problem attendant upon high strength of suspension of automobile are actively advanced. In this paper, the effect of compressive residual stress of spring steel(JISG SUP-9) by shot-peening on fatigue crack growth characteristics in high temperatures($100^{\circ}$, $150^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$) was investigated with considering fracture mechanics. So, we can obtain followings. (1)Compressive residual stress decreases in high temperature, that is, with increasing temperature. (2)The effect of compressive residual stress on fatigue crack growth behavior in high temperature increases below ${\Delta}K=17{\sim}19MPa$ (3)It was investigated by SEM that the constraint of compress residual stress for plastic zone of fatigue crack tip was decreased in high temperature as compared with room temperature.

As the variables affecting the fatigue behavior have uncertainty, the fatigue crack propagation is stochastic in nature. Therefore, the fatigue life prediction is critical for the design and the maintenance of many structural components. In this study, fatigue experiments are conducted on the specimens of magnesium alloy under the different thicknesses of specimen. The effects of specimen thickness on the probability distribution of the fatigue crack propagation life and the crack size are estimated experimentally. The probability distribution of the crack size and the fatigue life for different specimen thicknesses are investigated by Anderson-Darling test and the best fit for those probability distributions are also presented.
