Fiber fracture is one of the dominant failure phenomena to determine total mechanical properties in composites. Fiber fracture locations were measured by optical microscopic method and acoustic emission (AE) as functions of matrix toughness and surface treatment by the electrodeposition (ED), and then two methods were compared. Two AE sensors were attached on the epoxy specimen and fiber fracture signals were detected with elapsed time. The interfacial shear stress (IFSS) was measured using tensile fragmentation test and AE system. In ED-treated case, the number of the fiber fracture measured by an optical method and AE was more than that of the untreated case. The signal number measured by AE were rather smaller than the number of fragments measured by optical method, since some fiber fracture signals were lost while AE detection. However, one-to-one correspondence between the x-position location by AE and real break positions by optical method was generally established well. The fiber break source location using AE can be a valuable method to measure IFSS for semi- or nontransparent matrix composites nondestructively (NDT).

The application of laser in pipelines was started from the base of using laser in nuclear facilities industries and power plants. Because laser can be delivered to a remote area without any difficulties, the application of laser in many industries can solve many difficulties from limitation of access in danger area and reduced the risks of workers. Therefore, we developed a new experimental technique to measure internal defects of pressure vessels with a combination of shearog-raphy and image processing technique. Conventional NDT methods have been taken relatively much time, money and manpower because of performing as the method of contact with objects to be inspected. But digital shearography is laser-based optical method which allows full-field observation of surface displacement derivatives. This method has many advantages in practical use, such as low sensitivity to environmental noise, simple optical configuration and real time mea-surement. In this paper, we find the optimum shearing magnitude with EFM and experiment and measured internal crack length of the pressure vessels at a real time and estimated the error of the results.

This article describes the development of a fiber optic accelerometer based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG). The accelerometer utilizes the stiffness of the optical fiber and a lumped mass in the design. Acceleration is measured by the FBG in response to the vibration of the fiber optic mass system. The wavelength shift of FBG is proportional to the change in acceleration, and the gauge factor pertains to the shift in wavelength as a function of acceleration. Low frequency version of the accelerometer was developed for applications in monitoring bridges. The accelerometer was first evaluated in laboratory settings and then employed in a demonstration project for condition assessment of a bridge. Laboratory experiments involved evaluation of the sensitivity and resolution of measurements under a series of low frequency low amplitude conditions. The main feature of this accelerometer is single channel multiplexing capability rendering the system highly practical for application in condition assessment of bridges. This feature of the accelerometer was evaluated by using the system during ambient vibration tests of a bridge. The Frequency Domain Decomposition method was employed to identify the mode shapes and natural frequencies of the bridge. Results were compared with the data acquired from the conventional accelerometers.

Conventional measurement methods using ultrasonic wave or x-ray, eddy current for non-destructive testing(NDT) in nuclear power plants and other industrial plants have been performed as the method of contact with objects to be inspected. With this reason these methods have been taken relatively much time and the inspected area is limited by the location of probe or film. But holographic interferometry which is a non-contact optical measurement method using a coherent light source has an advantage that the quantitative measurement can be performed at a time. In this paper a new method using holographic interferometry and image processing for detecting internal flaws of pressure vessels is presented.

Conventional measurement methods for non-destructive testing(NDT) in nuclear power plants other industrial plants have been performed as the methods of contact with objects to be inspect, but those methods have been taken relatively much time to be inspected. Holographic interferometry which is a non-contact optical measurement method using a coherent light can overcome these demerit, and also has an advantage that the quantitative measurement of small deformation for large areas can be accomplished at a time with high precision. In this paper the comparisons of the experimental results from holographic interferometry with those form the finite element method(FEM) and the analytical solutions of elastic equation are discussed.

This paper describes a new magnetization method for non-destructive testing with magneto-optical sensor (denoted as MO sensor) which have the following characteristic : high observation sensitivity, independence of the crack orientation, and precise imaging of a complex crack geometry such as multiple cracks. When a magnetic field is applied normally to the surface of a specimen which is significantly larger than its defects, approximately the same magnetic charge per unit area occurs on the surface of the specimen. If there is a crack in the specimen, magnetic charge per unit area has the same value at the bottom of the crack. The distribution of the vertical component of the magnetic flux density, B$\_$Z/, is almost uniform over the no-crack area (denoted as B$\_$Z,BASE/), while the magnetic flux density is smaller in the surroundings of the crack(denoted as B$\_$Z,CRACK/) If B$\_$Z, BASE/ is a bit larger than the saturated magnetic flux density of the MO sensor (B$\_$s/) , then small magnetic domains occur over the crack area and a large domain over the non-crack area because B$\_$Z,CRACK/ is smaller than B$\_$s/.

Digital shearography, a speckle pattern method is based on the superposition of two laterally sheared images. Therefore, object points which are positioned in some distance from each other are superposed in the image plane. This shearography, one of NDT methods without contact, is able to inspect defects in pipelines and pressure vessels that are used in nuclear power plants. This is can inspect whole fields and has a low sensitivity to environmental noise. Because optical setting is very simple, it has a little exhaustion of time, cost and man power. And also it can find a defect position through real time monitoring of a part. This paper, finds out the relationship among shearing quantity image quality and defect size with this method.

원자력 발전소나 화학공장 등에서 사용되는 보편적인 부재중 하나인 압력배관은 사용중에 내부에 부식 등의 원인으로 결함이 발생되어 구조적 강도나 안전에 문제를 야기한다. 따라서, 이런 결함의 검출은 중요한 문제이다. 현재 신뢰성이 인정되어 사용되는 기존의 비파괴검사법으로는 초음파 X선 그리고 와전류에 의한 방법 등이 있다. 그렇지만 이러한 방법들은 검사하고자 하는 대상과 거의 접촉에 가까운 형태로 검사가 진행되고 있으며, 결함은 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 한번에 검출되지 못하고 탐촉자나 필름이 위치하는 부분으로 검사영역이 한정되는 단점이 있다. 그래서 검사에 많은 시간과 경비가 소모되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점들을 극복할 수 있는 레이저를 이용한 전자 전단 간섭법으로 결함을 측정하였다. 그리하여 압력용기의 내부에 존재하는 다양한 결함의 유무와 결함의 방향을 변위구배를 나타내는 간섭무늬로 검출하고, 검출된 결함에 위상 이동법을 적용하여 정량적으로 측정할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 두 편으로 구성된다. 그 첫 번째는 전자 전단 간섭법을 이용한 압력용기의 내부결함 검출에 관한 연구이고, 두 번째는 그 측정시스템의 오차분석에 관한 연구로 구성되어 있다.
