Recently, magnesium alloys have been widely used in the automotive, aerospace and electronics industries with the advantages of high specific strength, excellent machinability, high electrical conductivity, and high thermal conductivity. Deep drawn magnesium alloys not only meet the demands environmentally and the need for lighter products, but also can lead to remarkably improved productivity and more rapid qualification of the product The current study reports on a failure prediction procedure using finite element modeling (FEM) and a ductile fracture criterion and applies this procedure to the design of a deep drawing process. Critical damage values were determined from a series of uniaxial tensile tests and FEM simulations. They were then expressed as a function of strain rate and temperature. Based on the plastic deformation histories obtained from the FEM analyses of the warm drawing process and the critical damage value curves, the initiation time and location of fracture were predicted. The proposed method was applied to the process design for fabrication of a Mg automotive compressor case and verified with experimental results. The final results indicate that a Mg case part 39% lighter than an Al die casting part can be produced without any defects.

군용 궤도차량은 일반 차량보다 더 가혹한 주행조건과 기후환경에서 운용되며, 이러한 환경에서 사용되기 위하여 적용되는 부품들은 고도의 신뢰성과 내구성이 요구된다. 특히 디젤엔진은 군용 궤도차량의 주 동력발생장치로써, 차량 주행 간 고장이 발생할 시에 대형사고로 이어질 가능성이 높다. 따라서 엔진의 고장 및 파손원인을 분석하는 것은 추후 발생할 수 있는 유사한 사례를 사전에 예방할 수 있는 중요한 과정이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 군용 궤도차량 주행 간 발생된 고장 엔진에 대하여 분해검사와 경도 측정, 파단면 분석 등의 파손원인검토를 통하여 엔진 파손 메커니즘을 규명하였다. 파손 엔진에 대한 분해검사를 통하여 4번 커넥팅 로드에서 볼트가 분리되어 이탈된 것이 확인되었다. 또한 4번 커넥팅 로드 볼트의 경도 측정 결과는 규격에 적합하였으며, 파손된 볼트의 파단면 분석을 통하여 볼트는 연성파괴 되었다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 분석 결과를 바탕으로 이번에 발생된 군용 궤도차량 디젤엔진의 파손은 최초 4번 커넥팅 로드 볼트의 풀림으로 인한 이탈과 파손이 연쇄적인 손상으로 이어져 발생되었던 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구에서 수행한 엔진 고장원인분석 결과는 향후 타 장비의 유사한 엔진 고장 및 파손원인분석 연구에 참고사례 및 유용한 자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Fracture behaviors and strength of pipes with local wall thinning are very important Jar the integrity of energy plants. In pipes of energy plants, sometimes, the local wall thinning may result from severe erosion-corrosion damage. Recently, the effects of local wall thinning on strength and fracture behaviors of piping system have been well studied. In this paper, the elasto-plastic analysis is performed by FE code ANSIS. We evaluated the failure mode, fracture strength and fracture behavior from FE analysis.

Fracture behaviors of pipes with local wall thinning is very important for the integrity of nuclear power plant. In pipes of energy plants, sometimes, the local wall thinning may result from severe drosion-corrosion damage. However, effect of local wall thinning on strength and fracture behaviors of piping system were not well studied. In this paper, the monotonic bending tests were performed of full-scale carbon steel pipes with local wall thinning. A monotonic bending load was applied to straight pipe specimens by four-point loading at ambient temperature without internal pressure. From the tests, fracture behaviors and fracture strength of locally thinned pipe were manifested systematically. The observed failure modes were divided into four types; ovalization, ovalization+cracking, local buckling and local buckling+cracking. Also, maximum load was successfully evaluated.

Fracture behaviors of an interface crack in a ductile layer sandwiched by rigid substrates are analyzed by finite element method. Several fracture mechanisms and the corresponding criteria are examined. And the crack growth behavior and fracture toughness are predicted. As the results, various crack growth procedures such as the crack jump to the other interface on the opposite side, the creation of a new crack far from the initial crack front, and the asymmetric relation of fracture toughness vs. mode mixity ($J_c$-$\Phi$) can be successfully explained.

Continuous fiber ceramic composites(CPCCs) having the advantages of ceramics resistance to heat, eroson can be applied in chemical reactors and engine. CFCCs has relatively high stiffness in spite of low weight. In particular, it exhibits greatly increased toughness, which serves to decrease its inherent damage characteristics of the brittle nature of monolithic ceramics. In this wort, tensile and flexural test for SCS6 fiber/ $Si_3N_4$ matrix composites were studied. An objective of this study is to obtain the basic quantities of mechanical properties for tension and flexural test and link these to the fracture resistance behavior. Then, we showed that wok of fracture concept was useful as a method for describing fracture restance behavior of CFCCs.

Damage process of CFRP laminates was characterized by Acoustic Emission (AE). The main objective of this study is to determine if the sources of AE in CERP laminates could be identified from the characteristics of the waveform signals recorded during monotonic tensile test. The time history and power spectrum of each individual wave signal recorded during test were examined and classified according to their special characteristics. The wave from and frequency of AE signal from a specimens is an aid to the determination of the extent of the different fracture mechanism such as matrix crack, debonding, fiber pull-out and fiber fracture as load is increased. Four distinct types of signals were observed regardless of specimen condition. The result showed that the AE method could be effectively used for analysis of fracture mechanism in CFRP laminates.

Compressive ability is one of the most important mechanical properties of concrete material. The compressive failure process of concrete is pretty complex with internal tension, shear damage and friction between cracks. To simulate the complex fracture process of concrete at meso level, methodology for meso-structural analysis of concrete specimens is developed; the zero thickness cohesive elements are pre-inserted to simulate the crack initiation and propagation; the constitutive applied in cohesive element is established to describe the mechanism of crack separation, closure and friction behavior between the fracture surfaces. A series of simulations were carried out based on the model proposed in this paper. The results reproduced the main fracture and mechanical feature of concrete under compression condition. The effect of key material parameters, structure size, and aggregate content on the concrete fracture pattern and loading carrying capacities was investigated. It is found that the inner friction coefficient has a significant influence on the compression character of concrete, the compression strength raises linearly with the increase of the inner friction coefficient, and the fracture pattern is sensitive to the mesostructure of concrete.

복합재 날개 구조물에 대한 구조 건전성 및 손상을 평가하기 위하여 정적 구조강도시험에 음향방출(AE)법이 응용되었다. 시험중 스트레인과 변위측정기법을 통하여 정적구조강도를 확인하였고, 음향방출요소 분석과 위치표정기법을 통하여 구조물의 내부 손상을 평가하고 손상위치를 찾을 수 있었다. 시험은 설계제한하중시험, 2차에 걸친 설계극한 하중시험, 파단시험이 수행되었다. 주요한 AE신호는 front lug근처의 표면에 부착된 센서에 의하여 감지되었다. 특히 1차 설계극한하중시험에서 스트레인 및 변위결과는 내부 손상을 보이지 않았으나 AE신호는 내부 손상이 이미 형성된 현상을 나타내었다. 파단시험에서는 AE활성도가 매우 활발하였고, 스트레인 및 변위의 결과는 심한 손상에 의하여 하중경로가 바뀌는 경향을 나타내었다. 음향방출법을 적용하여 정적 구조시험이 진행되는 동안 내부손상이 발생되는 하중과 위치를 정확하게 평가할 수 있었다. 본 연구로부터 음향방출법은 정적 구조강도시험에 있어 내부 손상을 평가하는데 유용한 기법임이 확인되었다.

Continuous fiber ceramic composites (CFCCs) have advantages over monolithic ceramics : Silicon Nitride composites are not well used for application because of their low fracture toughness and fracture strength, but CFCCs exhibit increased toughness for damage tolerance, and relatively high stiffness in spite of low specific weight. Thus it is important to characterize the fracture resistance and properties of new CFCCs materials. Tensile and flexural tests were carried out for mechanical properties and the fracture resistance behavior of a SCS6 fiber reinforced Si$_3$N$_4$ matrix CFCC was evaluated. The results indicated that CFCC composite exhibit a rising R curve behavior in flexural test. The fracture toughness was about 4.8 MPa$.$m$\^$1/2 , which resulted in a higher value of the fracture toughness because of fiber bridging. Mechanical properties as like the elastic modulus, proportional limit and the ultimate strength in a flexural test are greater than those in a tensile test. Also a numerical modeling of failure process was accomplished for a flexural test. This numerical results provided a good simulation of the cumulative fracture process of the fiber and matrix in CFCCs.
