최근 세계 각 국에서는 노후된 원전의 연장운전과 관련하여 주요기기의 손상진단 또는 수명평가를 통한 지속적인 안전성 보장과 원전의 정비계획 수립, 효율적인 원전이용 등을 위하여 기기의 손상평가 및 성능감시를 수행할 수 있는 각종 감시시스템을 개발하고 있다. 국내의 경우도 발전소 가동년수 증가와 함께 안정적인 전력수급을 위해 연장운전에 대한 타당성 검토를 수행한 바 있으며, 그 후속연구도 진행될 예정으로 있어 발전소를 구성하고 있는 주요 기기의 안전성 확보와 신뢰도 향상이 요구되고 있다. 이러한 측면에서 Prototype 형태로 기기 건전성 평가에 활용할 수 있는 과도상태, 조사취화, 피로손상, 균열성장 및 부식손상 평가모듈을 개발하고, 이를 통합하여 원자력 발전소 종합 진단감시시스템을 구축하였다.

To evaluate the effects of mode II on the crack initiation and propagation stages, the effects in the fatigue threshold region under a mixed-mode I+II loading state was experimentally investigated. In the case of mixed-mode I + II, during the crack initiation stage, as the loading application angle (${\theta}$) increased, cracks occurred in the lower load owing to the effects of mode II, while the crack propagation rate decreased. The effects of mode II were experimentally investigated in the crack propagation stage by means of multilevel loading direction variation. Following mixed-mode I+II ($0^{\circ}{\rightarrow}{\theta}{\rightarrow}60^{\circ}$), as the load application angle increased, the fatigue crack propagation rate decreased, as did the fatigue crack propagation rate, which occurred later. Following mixed-mode I + II in case of(${\theta}{\geq}75^{\circ}$), the fatigue crack propagation rate was found to increase, while the fatigue life decreased.

This study performed stress and fatigue life analysis of the damping hinge of a built-in side-by-side refrigerator that occurs when the door is opened to the maximum angle. An analysis of the initial design showed that stress concentration occurred at the corner between the cylinder and upper disk of the bracket pin, and the maximum stress exceeded the yield strength. The maximum stress location and the calculated fatigue life were consistent with the door opening-and-closing endurance test results for a prototype. Three cases of design improvement for the bracket pin were derived with the aim of reducing the stress concentration that appeared in the initial design. An analysis of the cases showed that inserting a fillet between the disk and the cylinder of the bracket pin reduced the stress and increased the fatigue life. Moreover, changing the disk into two steps was more favorable. In conclusion, the best design improvement was the case that the disk was changed to two steps and the fillet with a large radius was inserted. In that case, the stress was the smallest and the fatigue life was infinite.

In this study, the various load cases by specified by the IEC61400-1 international specification and GL Regulations for the wind energy conversion system were considered, and a specific composite structure configuration which can effectively endure various loads was proposed. In order to evaluate the structure, the structural analysis for the composite wind turbine blade was performed using the finite element method(FEM). In the structural design, the acceptable configuration of blade structure was determined through the parametric studies, and the most dominant design parameters were confirmed. In the stress analysis using the FEM, it was confirmed that the blade structure was safe and stable for all the considerd load cases. Moreover the safety of the blade root joint with insert bolts, newly devised in this study, was checked against the design loads and also the fatigue loads. The fatigue life for operating more than 20 years was estimated by using the well-known S-N linear damage rule, the load spectrum and Spera's empirical equations. The full-scale static test was performed under the simulated aerodynamic loads. from the experimental results, it was found that the designed blade had the structural integrity. Furthermore the measured results were agreed with the analytical results such as deflections, strains, the mass and the radial center of gravity. The studied blade was successfully certified by an international institute, GL, of Germany.

In order to increase design efficiency, it is required to design steam boiler pressure parts systematically considering daily start-stop operation and load variation. The objective of this research is to develope an integrated system for increasing design efficiency of boiler pressure parts. The developed system consists of three program modules: (1) flexibility design module for the header stub considering fatigue life, (2) fatigue limit calculation and life evaluation module for the thick-walled boiler pressure part under cyclic operation using TRD301 code, (3) drawing automation module for the header and drum producing design drawings, welding data and bill of materials.
