With regard to corrosion fatigue crack initiation life (Nc), it has been treated ambiguously for the member which doesn't have stress concentration area. In this research, in order to clarify the corrosion fatigue crack initiation life (Nc), corrosion fatigue tests were carried out. Reasonable and universal corrosion fatigue crack initiation life (Nc) was defined and corrosion fatigue crack initiation/propagation model was suggested also. As the fatigue crack which emanates from the pit is usually small, accordingly it is treated as a small crack. In addition, the observation of the corrosion fatigue fracture surfaces using SEM was conducted. And the fracture mechanics analysis using an intrinsic crack model was conducted for the treatment of the small crack. Finally, the followings were obtained. When there is no clear stress concentration point which seems to fall into a corrosion fatigue crack initiation life, the significance of the definition and suggestion of the moment of the reasonable and universal corrosion fatigue crack initiation life (Nc), at which the fatigue crack propagation rate becomes faster than the corrosion pit growth rate so that the fatigue crack initiates from the pit and propagates in earnest, has been clarified.

It has been well known that the ductile cracking of steel would be accelerated by triaxial stress state. Recently, the characteristics of critical crack initiation of steels are quantitatively estimated using the two-parameters, that is, equivalent plastic strain and stress triaxiality, criterion. This study is paid to the fundamental clarification of the effect of geometrical heterogeneity and strength mismatching, which can elevate plastic constraint due to heterogeneous plastic straining, and loading rate on ductile crack initiation behavior. Also, the ductile crack initiation testing were conducted under static and dynamic loading using round bar specimens with circumferential notch and strength mis-matching. The result showed that the nominal strain at ductile crack initiation of circumferential notch specimens small then the round bar specimens for effect of geometrical discontinuity. Also, the nominal strain at ductile crack initiation was decreased with decrease of notch root radius of curvature.

In this study, the rotary bending fatigue test was carried out with low carbon steel(SM25C). The specimens were heat-treated in order to change the grain size, and investigated items are fatigue limit, small crack initiation, fatigue crack propagation behavior and possibility of fatigue life prediction according to the different grain size. The summarized result are as follows ; Fatigue limit of the smooth specimen was dependent upon the grain size. The fatigue crack initiation of the small grain size specimen was delayed more than that of the large grain size specimen. And the small cracks of small grain size specimen were distributed in the narrow region of the main crack circumference contrary to the large grain size specimen. The main crack was grown along the grain boundary having co-alliance with small cracks. The experiment material has quantitatively disclosed the possibility of fatigue life prediction because the fatigue crack propagation behavior is dependent upon the grain size.

Reversed plane bending fatigue tests were conducted on SiC whisker reinforced aluminum composite which were consolidated by squeeze casting process. Initiation and growth of small surface fatigue c racks were investigated by means of a plastic replica technique. The fatigue crack initiated in the vicinity of SiC whisker/matrix interface. It was found that a fatigue crack deflected along SiC whisker and grew in a zig-zag manner microscopically, although the crack propagated along the direction normal to the loading axis macroscopically. The coalescence of micro-cracks was observed in the tests conducted at high stress levels, but were not evident in tests in which lower levels of stress were applied. Due to the coalescence, a higher crack growth rate of small cracks rather than those of long cracks was recognized in da/dn -ΔK realtionship.

본 연구는 SiC입자를 20% 강화된 알루미늄기 복합재료를 이용해서 평면굽힘피로시험을 향했다. 표면미소피로균열의 발생 및 진전거동은 레프리카법으로 연속관찰을 했고 파괴원인과 파괴기구를 규명하기 위해서 주사전자현미경을 이용했다. da/dn-$K_{max}$ 관계에서 저응력 레벨에서는 여러 개의 균열이 진전하고, 합체 등이 일어나는 것으로부터 진전속도는 꽤 분산(흐트러짐)이 심하고, 고응력 레벨에서는 비교적 흐트러짐은 적게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Crack initiation and short crack propagation was studied on the polished notched surfaces of Cr-Mo prealloy sintered steels with 7.35 $g.cm^{-3}$ sintered density. An ultrasonic resonance test system operating in push-pull mode at 20 kHz and R=-1 was used. It showed that crack initiation took place in several places, small cracks growing oriented to the local pore structure rather than to stress orientation. Their growth rate is markedly higher than the corresponding one of long cracks. Finally, several microcracks join to form a dominant crack.

본 연구에서는 파괴조건(4)와 유사하게 임계 스트레인 조건을 사용하나 기존 스트레인이 없는 재료의 날카로운 균열선단을 가진 시편의 파괴인성실험치(.delta.$_{IC}$)로 부터 재료의 고유상수인 특성길이를 결정하는 방법이 제안되었다.이 파괴조건을 이 용하여 처음노치선단의 유한한 반경과 재료의 기존 스트레인이 시편의 파괴개시에 미 치는 영향을 예측하고자 한다.

Pit형 표면결함으로부터 발생하는 작은 피로균열의 거동을 초음파의 표면파를 이용하여 이를 위하여 피로시험중인 Al 2024-T3를 시험재료, 피로시험도중 초음파를 이용하여 피로균열의 거동을 조사하였다. 즉, 피로시험에서 균열이나 Pit로부터 발생하는 작은 피로균열을 여러 응력조건하에서 나타나는 표면파의 반사특성에 관하여 연구하였다. 또한 이론적 결과와 실험적 결과를 상호 비교, 분석하였고, SEM을 사용하여 이들 작은 피로균열을 관찰하였다. 초음파를 이용한 피로균열의 균열 개구 거동에 관한 연구에서 피로균열의 유효균열 특성을 초음파법으로 평가 할 수 있었다.

We carried out fatigue testing with materials of aluminum alloyC7075-T6, 2024-T4) by rotary bending fatigue tester. We investigated fatigue limit, fatigue crack initiation, fatigue crack propagation behavior and possibility of fatigue life prediction to the different small circular hole defect. The summarized result are as follows; Fatigue limit of the smooth specimens were related tensile strength and yield strength. In case of more large applied stress and small circular hole crack defect, the fatigue crack was grown rapidly. The fatigue crack propagation behavior proceed at according to inclusion. Fatigue crack propagation ratio appeared instability and retardation phenomenon in the first half of fatigue life but appeared stability and replied in the latter half. On other hand, this experimental data of the materials are appeared fatigue life predictability.
