The effects of thermomechanical treatments on microstructure and fatigue properties of 7050 Al alloy were investigated. The precipitation kinetics changed to a faster rate due to cold deformation employed in this special TAHA thermomechanical treatments including pre-aging, plastic deformation and two step final-aging. The G.P. zones in the under-aged condition were cut by dislocations and dissolved during the plastic deformation. During the low cycle fatigue, the T6' condition showed cyclic hardening behavior whereas the TMT5, TMT27 and T76 conditions showed cyclic softening at above 0.7% total strain amplitudes. The ${\Delta}K_{th}$ value of TMT27 was improved more than two times, compared with that of T76 condition. The T6' with small shearable precipitates resulted in the markedly high ${\Delta}K_{th}$ value. This is thought to be resulted from dislocation reversibility and roughness-induced crack closure due to planarity of slip.

In this paper, tensile behavior and low cycle fatigue behavior of 316L stainless steel which is currently favored structural material for several high temperature components such as the liquid metal cooled fast breeder reactor (LMFBR) were investigated. Research was performed at 55$0^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$ since working temperature of 316L stainless steel in a real field is from 40$0^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$. From tensile tests performed by strain controls with $1{\times}10^{-3}/s,\; l{\times}10^{ -4}/s \;and\; 1{\times}10/^{ -5}/ s $ strain rates at each temperature, negative strain rate response (that is, strain hardening decreases as strain rate increases) and negative temperature response were observed. Strain rate effect was relatively small compared with temperature effect. LCF tests with a constant total strain amplitude were performed by strain control with a high temperature extensometer at R.T, 55$0^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ and total strain amplitudes of 0.3%~0.8% were used and test strain rates were $1{times}10^{-2} /s,\; 1{times}10^{-3} /s\; and\; 1{times}10^{-4} /s$. A new energy based LCF life prediction model which can explain the effects of temperature, strain amplitude and strain rate on fatigue life was proposed and its excellency was verified by comparing with currently used models.

The Puebla-Morelos Earthquake (Mw 7.1) occurred in Mexico in 2017 causing 44 buildings to collapse in Mexico City. This work evaluates the non-linear response of a 6-story reinforced concrete (RC) frame prototype model with masonry infill walls on upper floors. The prototype model was designed using provisions prescribed before 1985 and was subjected to seismic excitations recorded during the earthquakes of 1985 and 2017 in different places in Mexico City. The building response was assessed through a damage index (DI) that considers low-cycle fatigue of the steel reinforcement in columns of the first floor, where the steel was modeled including buckling as was observed in cases after the 2017 earthquake. Isocurves were generated with 72 seismic records in Mexico City representing the level of iso-demand on the structure. These isocurves were compared with the location of 16 collapsed (first-floor column failure) building cases consistent with the prototype model. The isocurves for a value greater than 1 demarcate the location where fatigue failure was expected, which is consistent with the location of 2 of the 16 cases studied. However, a slight increase in axial load (5%) or decrease in column cross-section (5%) had a significant detrimental effect on the cumulated damage, increasing the intensity of the isocurves and achieving congruence with 9 of the 16 cases, and having the other 7 cases less than 2 km away. Including column special detailing (tight stirrup spacing and confined concrete) was the variable with the greatest impact to control the cumulated damage, which was consistent with the absence of severe damage in buildings built in the 70s and 80s.

액체로켓 연소기 재생냉각 챔버 내피에 사용되는 구리합금의 가동 수명을 예측하기 위해서 피로 수명에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 재료의 기계적인 특징과 피로 수명을 얻기 위하여 인장 시험 및 저사이클 피로 시험이 상온 및 고온에서 수행되었다. 수명을 예측하기 위해서 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 주기울기법, 수정 주기울기법, Mitchell의 방법, Baumel과 Seeger의 방법, Ong의 방법들이 사용되었으며, 거의 모든 데이터가 현재 널리 사용되는 방법들로 예측이 잘 되지 않아 구리합금을 위한 새로운 수명식을 개발해야 할 필요성을 발견하게 되었다.

The aim of this study is to find out the relationships between the microstructures of SM45C(AISI1045) steel and fatigue crack propagation behaviour. Three microstructures such as (i) as received (fully annealed). (ii) water quenched and tempered, and (iii) oil quenched and tempered were used for fundamental mechanical testing and fatigue crack proagation test. The microstructures of (ii) and (iii) showed superior in tensile strength to (i). Resistance against fatigue crack propagation was higher in structure (i), while tensile properties were better in structures (ii) and (iii). It is believed due to that the enhancement of roughness of fracture surface obsered in structure (i) increases ${\Delta}Kth$ and lowers fatigue crack growth rate. However it does not necessarily mean the quenched and tempered structures (ii) and (iii) are undesirable for the engineering component because fatigue limit in low cycle test appears usually higher in the microstructures of higher strength.

With the aim to evaluate the fatigue damage accumulation and predict the residual life of engineering components under variable amplitude loadings, this paper proposed a new strain energy-based damage accumulation model by considering both effects of mean stress and load interaction on fatigue life in a low cycle fatigue (LCF) regime. Moreover, an integrated procedure is elaborated for facilitating its application based on S-N curve and loading conditions. Eight experimental datasets of aluminum alloys and steels are utilized for model validation and comparison. Through comparing experimental results with model predictions by the proposed, Miner's rule, damaged stress model (DSM) and damaged energy model (DEM), results show that the proposed one provides more accurate predictions than others, which can be extended for further application under multi-level stress loadings.

LNG 저장탱크에 사용되는 멤브레인은 전체적으로는 선형거동을 하나, 국부적으로는 탄소성거동을 하며, 굽힘과 인장의 복합적인 응력을 받는 구조이다. 즉, 멤브레인 평가는 복합적인 하중을 부과하기가 어려워 소재의 피로특성만으로 평가할 수가 없으며, 실제 대형구조 멤브레인 실 모델을 이용하여 평가해야 하는데 이는 상당한 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이러한 멤브레인의 피로특성을 파악하여 LNG 저장탱크에 활용하기 위한 멤브레인 피로수명 예측식을 제안하고자 한다.

To investigate the fatigue characteristic of upper limbs, this study analyzed RMS(root mean square) and MPF(mean power frequency) value between initial and terminal stages of each experiment condition. And the effect of intermittent endurance time was evaluated using the Borg's CR10 value that was measured for the parts of upper limb. According to the results of ANOVA on RMS value, there were significant difference on the %MVC about push, pull, and down force exertion. Particularly the ANOVA of up force exertion was significant difference on shoulder flexion, elbow flexion and rest time as well as %MVC. The results of ANOVA for MPF value were significant difference on the %MVC in regard of the push and up force exertion. In case of up force exertion, MPF value tended to shift low frequency at all of the experiment conditions. According to the analysis of duty cycle, RMS value considerably increased over 50% duty cycle and as the %MVC increased, the duty cycle affected the increase of RMS value. MPF value for up and down force exertion decreased at 33%, 50% and 67% duty cycle for all of %MVC. Borg CR10 value of hand and forearm were below the 3-point to the 40% of endurance time at 30%MVC and to the 20% of endurance time at 50%MVC with the exception of up force exertion. But Borg CR10 values of upper arm and shoulder at up force exertion were more than 3-point to the 20% of endurance time at 30%MVC and in the start point of endurance time at 50%MVC.

피로균열성장모델을 유도하고 지연모델을 제안하였다. 피로균열성장모델은 피로균열선단의 소성변형으로 인하여 균열표면에 발생하는 잔류소성스트레치를 고려하고 있다. 균열 성장률은 균열선단 재료요소의 소성변형에너지와 누적피로손상으로부터 계산된다. 유도한 균열성장모델로부터 계산한 균열성장률은 AL6061-T651과 17-4PH 주강의 시험결과와 잘 일치하고 있다. 피로균열성장지연모델은 인장과대하중으로부터 생성된 잔류소성스트레치를 근거로 하고 있으며, 인장과대하중은 다음 하중 사이클의 소성변형률을 감소시킨다. Strip-yield모델을 이용하여 균열선단의 소성역을 계산하였다. 새로 제안된 지연모델은 인장과대하중하의 피로균열선장특성 및 지체지연 현상을 잘 기술하고 있다.

본 연구는 인장하중의 방향변화에 따른 의사 등방성 복합재 적층판의 피로손상거동의 변화에 대하여 알아보았다. [0/-60/＋60]$_s$ 적층판과 [＋30/-30/90]$_s$ 적층판의 저 싸이클 피로시험을 행하였고, 재료계는 AS4/Epoxy와 AS4/PEEK를 사용하였다. [＋30/-30/90]$_s$ 적층판의 피로손상은 [0/-60/＋60]$_s$ 적층판에 비하여 아주 달랐다. AS4/Epoxy와 AS4/PEEK [＋30/-30/90]$_s$ 적층판에 발생한 층간분리의 위치가 모재의 종류에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 층간분리 진전시 측정된 변형률을 사용하여 임계 변형률 에너지 해방률을 계산하였다. 실험결과를 모드별 변형률 에너지 해방률의 제안된 계산법으로 얻어진 해석 결과와 비교한 결과, 잘 일치되었다.
