부식피로에 대한 몇 가지 이론 및 실제를 소개하였다. 그러나, 부식피로가 학문적으로 관심을 갖게되고 연구의 대상이 된 것은 1970년초 부터로서, 아직까지도 많은 부분이 연구대상으로 남 아있다. 특히, 균열선단에서의 부식반응의 역할이 좀 더 상세히 밝혀져야 하고, 자연 부식조건 에서의 양극반응과 음극반응이 각각 어떠한 역할을 하는가도 좀더 밝혀져야 할 것이다. Mode II 또는 Mode III 상태에서의 균열전파 특성이나, 균열전파에 있어서 반복응력의 주파수의 영 향도 좀더 상세히 밝혀져야 할 연구 대상이다. 이러한 연구들을 통해서 현재까지는 주로 부식의 측면에서만 고려되는 산업현장의 부식피로 문제에 대해 좀더 근본적이고 효과적인 해결 방법을 제시할 수 있을 것이다.

In this study, the wedge splitting tcst (WST) was carried out for the fatigue wack growth behavior of concrete. Selected test variables were concrete compressive strength of 28, 60 and 118 MI%, and stress ratio with 2 levels (6. 13%). In oder to make the designed stress ratio, the maximum and thr minimum fatigue loading level were 75-85% and 5- 10% of ultimate static load, respectively. Fatigue testing was preceded by crack mout.h opening displacement (CMOI)) compliance calibration tcst, and then the fatigue crack growth was computed by crack lcngth vs. (lMOI) compliance relations acquisited by the CMOD compliance calibration technique. To evaluate thc validity of CMOD compliancc calibration techniquc, the crack length p~mlicted by this method was cornpard with the crack length by linear elastic fracture mechanics(LEFIbl) and dyeing test. On the basis of the experimental results, a LRFhl-based c.mpirica1 model for f'at,igue crack growth rate(da/dN-AKI relationships) was presented. The fat,igut. crack growth ratc increased with the strength of concwtc. It appcars that t.he da/tiN-AKI relationships was influenced by stress ratio, however, the effect is diminished with an increase of strength. The comparisons between CblOl) compliance calibration technique anti the other. methods gave the validity of' ('MOD compliance calibration technique for the LZXT.

가압경수로의 압력경계기기는 약 $300^{\circ}C$, 150기압의 고온고압수환경에서 가동되고 있다. 특히 가압기 밀림관은 고온수와, 저온수가 교차하는 부분으로 열성층 형성으로 열적, 기계적 피로 및 수화학환경이 더해진 부식피로 등에 의하여 손상을 받는다. PWR 원전에서 수화학환경은 대표적으로 용존산소(DO) 5ppb, pH 6~8, 용존수소(DH) <30 cc/kg, 온도 $316^{\circ}C$의 환경을 유지하게 된다. 가압기 밀림관에는 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강이 사용되는데, 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강은 고온 수화학환경에 민감한 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 오스테나이트계 스테인리강을 공기중에서의 기계적특성 및 피로특성을 향상시키기 위하여 질소를 첨가한 스테인리스강을 제조하여 PWR 원전환경에서의 피로균열성장특성을 평가하였다. 실험에 사용된 재료는 PWR 원전 가압기 밀림관 소재인 Type 347 스테인리스강에 0.0005 wt%가 첨가된 상용재와 0.11 wt% 질소가 첨가된 재료이다. 사용된 시편형상은 두께 5 mm, 폭 25.4 mm의 CT 시편이다. 수화학환경은 150기압, 온도 $316^{\circ}C$, 용존산소(DO) 5ppb, 용존수소(DH) 30 cc/Kg, pH는 약 7로 유지 하였으며, 응력비 0.1, 하중 반복속도 10Hz의 기계적 조건에서 하중제어로 시험을 진행하였다. 균열길이는 직류전위차법(Direct Current Potential Drop: DCPD)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 질소함량이 증가할수록 동일 사이클에서 균열길이가 늦게 성장하였고, 피로균열성장속도도 약간 늦어지는 것으로 나타났다. 각 스테인리스강의 피로파면 관찰결과 상용재는 약 1 ${\mu}m$의 산화물들이 생성되는 반면 질소첨가 스테인리스강은 약 0.1 ${\mu}m$정도 산화물이 생성되었다. 산화막의 두께도 질소가 첨가됨으로써 상용재에 비해 얇게 생성되었다. 따라서 질소가 첨가됨으로써 부식환경에서 내산화성이 향상되었으며, 이는 피로균열성장특성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.

High cycle bending fatigue of socket welded small bore pipe was characterized, and also the fatigue crack initiation of small bore pipe was monitored in situ by the acoustic emission (AE) technique. The STS 316L stainless steel specimens were prepared by gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process having the artificial defect (i.e., lack of penetration) and defect free at the root. The fatigue failure was occurred at the loc for high stress and root for relatively low stress. The crack initiation cycles ($N_i$) was defined to the abrupt increase in AE counts during the fatigue test, and then the cracks were observed by the radiographic test and electron microscope before and after the fatigue crack initiation cycles. The socket welded pipe damaged by bending fatigue was studied regarding the welding defect, failure mode, and crack initiation cycles for the diagnosis and monitoring.

In this study, we numerically analyze fatigue cracks of curved pipes under cyclic loadings. Numerical models of the curved pipes are developed. The models are verified with the experimental results in terms of fatigue lives and development process of the fatigue cracks. Erosion technique is applied to the solid elements in order to describe shapes of the fatigue cracks and estimate the fatigue lives. Also, development of the fatigue cracks is described by allocating sufficient number of solid elements in the radial direction. Fatigue lives and shapes of the crack resulting from numerical analyses show good agreement with those of the experiment considering ${\pm}100mm$ displacement. In addition, estimation of the fatigue life caused by displacement with different magnitude is conducted. We expect that the model can be applied to understand the relation between fatigue lives and characteristics of pipes or loadings.

Performance demonstration with real flawed specimens has been strongly required for nondestructive evaluation of safety class components in nuclear power plant. Mechanical or thermal fatigue crack and intergranular stress corrosion cracking could be occured in the in-service nuclear power plant and mechanical fatigue crack was selected to study in this paper. Specimen was designed to produce mechanical fatigue flaw under tensile stress. The number of cycles and the level of stress were controlled to obtain the desired flaw roughness. After the accurate physical measurement of the flaw size and location, fracture surface was seal-welded in place to ensure the designed location and site. The remaining weld groove was then filled by using gas-tungsten are welding(GTAW) and flux-cored arc welding(FCAW). Results of radio graphic and ultrasonic testing showed that fatigue cracks were consistent with the designed size and location in the final specimens.

In the present study, crack initiation criteria, static failure and tensile mode fatigue behavior for a rail steel are evaluated to assure the railway vehicle's safety. The transverse fissure, which is the most critical damage in the rail, is initiated by the maximum shear stress and its location is subsurface. In addition, the possibility of transition from the shear mode to the mixed mode increases with increasing the length of subsurface crack. Because of the brittleness by the welding, the fracture toughness of the welded part is lower than of the base metal. For low ${\Delta}K$, the stage II fatigue crack growth rates of the welded part is slower than of the base metal but, for high ${\Delta}K$, this different behavior for fatigue crack growth rate is nearly diminished. These trends are more remarkable for low stress ratio, R=0.1. It is believed that this behavior is caused by the change of the microstructure which that of the welded part is coarser than of base metal.

This study aims to investigate the spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate for the friction stir welded (FSWed) 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints. Our previous fatigue crack growth test data are adopted in this investigation. To clearly understand the spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate, fatigue crack growth tests were conducted under constant stress intensity factor range (SIFR) control testing. The experimental data were analyzed for two different materials-base metal (BM) and weld metal (WM)-to investigate the effects of spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate and material properties, the friction stir welded (FSWed) 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints, namely weld metal (WM) and base metal (BM). The results showed that the variability, as evaluated by Weibull statistical analysis, of the WM is higher than that of the BM.
