The fuselage-wing intersection suffers from the cyclic bending moment of variable amplitude. Therefore, the influence of cyclic bending moment on the delamination and the fatigue crack propagation behavior in AFRP/Al laminate of fuselage-wing was investigated in this study. The cyclic bending moment fatigue test in AFRP/Al laminate was performed with five levels of bending moment. The shape and size of the delamination Lone formed along the fatigue crack between aluminum sheet and aramid fiber-adhesive layer were measured by an ultrasonic C-scan. The relationships between da/dN and ΔK, between the cyclic bending moment and the delamination zone size, and between the fiber bridging behavior and the delamination zone were studied. As results, fiber failures were not observed in the delamination zone in this study, the fiber bridging modification factor increases and the fatigue crack growth rate decrease and the shape of delamination zone is semi-elliptic with the contour decreasing non-linearly toward the crack tip.

The fatigue crack growth behavior of the SA516/60 steel which is used for pressure vessels was examined experimentally at room temperature $25^{\circ}C,\;-30^{\circ}C,\;-60^{\circ}C,\;-80^{\circ}C,\;-100^{\circ}C$ and $-120^{\circ}C$ with stress ratio of R=0.05, 0.1 and 0.3. Fatigue crack propagation rate da/dN related with stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}K$ was influenced by stress ratio in stable of fatigue crack growth (Region II) with an increase in ${\Delta}K$. The resistance of fatigue crack growth at low temperature is higher compared with that at room temperature, which is attributed to tile extent of plasticity-induced by compressive residual stress according to the cyclic loads. Fractographic examinations reveal that the differences of the fatigue crack growth characteristics between room and low temperatures are mainly explained by the crack closure and the strengthening due to the plasticity induced and roughness induced.

In this study. CT specimens were prepared from ASME SA5l6 which was used for pressure vessel plates for room and low temperature service. And we got the following characteristics from fatigue crack growth test carried out in the environment of room and low temperature at $25^{\circ}C$, -3$0^{\circ}C$, -6$0^{\circ}C$, -8$0^{\circ}C$, -10$0^{\circ}C$ and -12$0^{\circ}C$ in the range of stress ratio of 0.1 by means of opening mode displacement. At the constant stress ratio, the threshold stress intensity factor range ΔKsub/th/ in the early stage of fatigue crack growth ( Region I) and stress intensity factor range ΔK in the stable of fatigue crack growth ( Region II) was increased in proportion to descend temperature. It assumed that the fatigue resistance characteristics and fracture strength at low temperature is considerable higher than that of room temperature in the early stage and stable of fatigue crack growth region. The straight line slope relation of logarithm da.dN -ΔK in RegionII, that is, the fatigue crack growth exponent m increased with descending temperature at the constant stress ratio. It assumed that the fatigue crack growth rate da/dN is rapid in proportion to descend temperature in Region II and the cryogenic-brittleness greatly affect a material with decreasing temperature.

Low temperature fatigue crack propagation ratio and characteristics of the pressure structural steel which is used for the low temperature pressure vessels. Fatigue crack properties was studied at room temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and low temperature ranges $-60^{\circ}C,\; -80^{\circ}C \;and\; -100^{\circ}C$ with stress ratio of R=0.05, 0.1, 0.3 in the logarithmic relationship between the fatigue crack propagation rate (da/dN) and stress intensity factor $\DeltaK$, in low temperature case the relationship was extend to the range of low crack propagation rate. The fractured specimens were examined by SEM tested. That results showed specimen failed at low temperature exhibit the quasi-cleavage fracture formation, however, considerable ductility proceed final fracture.

Most cracks in the structure occur under mixed mode loading and those fatigue crack propagation behavior heavily depends on the stress ratio. So, it is necessary to study the fatigue behavior under mixed mode loading as the stress ratio changes. In this paper, the fatigue crack propagation behavior was respectively investigated at stress ratio 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and we changed the loading application angle into 0$^{\circ}$, 30$^{\circ}$, 60$^{\circ}$ to apply various loading mode. The mode I and II stress intensity factor of CTS specimen used in this study was calculated by the displacement extrapolation method using FEM (ABAQUS). Using both the experiment and FEM analysis, we have concluded the relationship between crack propagation rate and stress intensity factor range at each loading mode due to the variation of stress ratio. Also, when the crack propagated under given stress ratio and loading mode condition, we have concluded the dominant factors of the crack propagation rate at each case.

Ships and offshore strrctures are exposed to the corrosive surroundings, and the extablishment of the design criteria and the elucidation on the influence by this environment are requested to maintain the safety and to demonstrate the function of the structure. In this paper, the fatigue-crack-growth behavior on the compact tension specimens of quenched, tempered HT80 grade steels and RA36 high tensile steels having a single edge fatigue cracked notch respectively, were investigated under the repeated tensile stress with constant stroke in sea water for the welded parts by shielded metal arc welding. Main results obtained are summerized as follows; 1. The fatigue-crack-growth rates da/dN in sea water appeared to be greater behavior than those in air environment at the same stress intensisy factor range $\DeltaK$. 2. The correlation data of da/dN$\DeltaK$ of the two kinds of high tensile steels in sea water showed no great difference, however, the correlation data of da/dN$\DeltaK/\sigma_y$($\sigma_y$ stands for yield strength of the material) showed that the fatigue-crack-growth behavior of RA36 plate is affected by active path corrosion(APC) mechanism, while that of HT80 grade plate is mainly affected by hydrogen embrittlement mechanism.

Super duplex stainless steel has long life in severe environments by showing the enough strength and corrosion resistance. Therefore, the fracture mechanics approach needs to support the structural strength integrity for the used material. In this study, fatigue crack propagation behavior was investigated to super duplex stainless steel with 0.2% nitrogen. The various volume fraction and distribution of austenite structure for applied specimen in test were obtained by changing the heat treatment temperature and cycle. From test results, fatigue crack propagation rate showed two kinds of tendency between da/dN and ${\Delta}K$ according to distribution of austenite structure and structure anisotropy.

The development of new materials with light weight and high strength has become vital to the machinery, aircraft and auto industries. However, there are a lot of problems with developing such materials that require expensive tools, and a great deal of time and effort. Therefore, the improvement of fatigue strength and fatigue life are mainly focused on adopting residual stress(in this thesis). The compressive residual stress was imposed on the surface according to each shot velocity(57, 70, 83, 96 m/sec) based on Shot-peening, which is the method of improving fatigue life and strength. By using the methods mentioned above, the following conclusions have been drawn. 1. The fatigue crack growth rate(da/dN) of the Shot-peened material was lower than that of the Un-peened material. And in stage I, ΔKth, the threshold stress intensity factor, of the shot-peen processed material is high in critical parts unlike the Un-peened material. Also m, fatigue crack growth exponent and number of cycle of the Shot-peened material was higher than that of the Un-peened material. That is concluded from effect of da/dN. 2. Fatigue life shows more improvement in the Shot-peened material than in the Un-peened material. And compressive residual stress of surface on the Shot-peen processed operate resistance force of fatigue crack propagation.
