In order to operate an RPV safely it is necessary to keep the pressure-temperature (P-T) limit during the heatup and cooldown process. While the ASME Code provides the P-T limit curve for safe operation, this limit curve has been prepared under conservative assumptions In this paper the effects of conservative assumptions involved in the P-T limit curve specified in the ASME Code Sec. XI were investigated. Three different parameters the crack depth the cladding thickness and the cooling rate, were reviewed based on 3-D finite element analyses. Also the constraint effect on P-T limit curve generation was investigated based on J- T approach. It was shown that the crack depth and the constraint effect change the safe region in P-T limit curve significantly Therefore it is recommended to prepare a more precise P-T limit curve based on finite element analysis to obtain P-T limit for safe operation of an RPV.

회전익 항공기의 동력전달축은 경량화를 위하여 중공축을 적용하였으며 선형탄성 파괴역학을 이용해 균열 전파 거동을 예측할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 유한요소해석을 통하여 원주방향 관통형 균열을 가지는 중공축의 균열성장수명을 예측하였다. 비틀림을 부여하고 균열을 고려한 요소를 형성하여 2차원 유한요소모델을 생성하였다. 초기 균열 길이를 정의하고 균열 길이를 증가시켜 유한요소해석을 수행해 균열 선단의 응력확대계수를 도출하였다. 응력확대계수가 중공축을 구성하는 재료의 파괴인성을 초과하기 직전의 길이를 한계 균열 길이로 정의한다. 응력확대계수 핸드북을 통해 응력확대계수를 계산하여 한계 균열 길이를 도출하고 균열성장속도식을 수치적분하여 각각의 균열성장수명을 비교해 제안한 유한요소해석 기법을 검증하였다.

In this study, the harmless crack size(a_hml) according to the residual stress depth was evaluated using the fatigue limit of SCM440 steel by quenching-tempering(QT) and induction hardening(IH), and threshold stress intensity factor of QT steel. Because the residual stress increased rapidly as the crack depth increased, a_hml was determined at the depth of all the crack aspect ratio(As) regardless of Type I-III, and a_hml also increased according to the residual stress depth. a_hml was minimal at As=1.0 and maximal at As=0.1, but was almost similar on each Type. a_hml was small the dependence on As.

적분형 르장드르 다항식과 가상균열확장법을 사용한 p-version균열모델이 선형 탄성파괴력학에서 응력확대계수를 산정할 수 있도록 제안되었다. 이 모델의 큰 장점은 소수의 요소를 사용하기 때문에 입력재료를 최소화 할 수 있고 균열선단 부근에서 높은 정확도와 빠른 수검율을 얻을 수 있다는 것이다. 이 연구를 통해 얻어진 두 가지 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 변형에너지의 정해인 극한치가 수검구간에 있는 연속된 3개의 p-version 유한요소 결과로 부터 확정 할 수 있다는 것이다. 둘째, 인장력을 받는 균열판 해석에서 p-version의 수검율은 균등 또는 유사균등 요소분할에 근거를 둔 h-version모델에 비해 거의 2배 가량 빠름을 알 수 있다.

Experimental research has been carried out to investigate the characteristics of the fatigue crack initiation and propagation behavior of Tailor Welded Blank(TB) sheet used for vehicle body. We used three types of specimens which were machined of the same base metal: one is 1.4mm thick, another is 1.6mm thick, and the third(TB specimen) is laser-welded of two specimens(1.4mm and 1.6mm thick ones). The results of tensile and hardness test indicate that the yield strength of the TB specimen is the highest, and the hardness around welding bead is higher than that of base metal. Fatigue strength and fatigue limit of the TB specimen are much superior to those of the base metal up to $10^6$ cycles. The fatigue crack propagation of the heat-affected zone of the TB specimen is slower than that of the base metal. Welding bead has the fastest crack Propagation in the low stress intensity factor range$(\DeltaK)$ region, but the slowest in the high $\DeltaK$ region. The fatigue propagation characteristic of the TB specimen is relatively stable in comparison with that of the base metal in the high ${\Delta}K$ region around over $28MPa\sqrt{m}$.

핵연료집합체는 상단고정체, 하단고정체, 지지격자체, 제어관/계측관과 핵연료봉의 5 가지 주요 구성품으로 이루어져 있다. 여기서 상/하단고정체는 다른 구성품과 달리 ASME, Section III, Division 1 - Subsection NB 의 운전조건 A, B 에서의 stress intensity limits 를 만족하여야 한다. 이중냉각 핵연료집합체는 집합체당 출력을 증가시키기 위해서 기존의 가압경수로용 핵연료집합체에서 핵연료봉의 배열과 위치를 변화시켰는데 이로 인하여 핵연료봉 내/외부유로로 냉각수가 잘 흐를 수 있도록 상/하단고정체의 유로판의 형상을 수정하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 설계하중조건에 대하여 수정된 상단고정체 유로판의 건전성평가를 위해 수행한 응력선형화과정을 자세히 설명하고 평가결과에 대하여 기술하였다.

The objective of this study is an understanding of stress corrosion cracking of metals that is recognized to mostly limit the lifetime of the structural materials by comparing the features of delayed hydride cracking of zirconium alloys with those of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of Ni-based alloys and hydrogen cracking of stainless steels. To this end, we investigated a dependence of delayed hydride cracking (DHC) velocity on the applied stress intensity factor and yield strength, and correlated a temperature dependence of the striation spacing and the DHC velocity. We reviewed a similarity of the features between the DHC of zirconium alloys, the SCC of Ni-based alloys and turbine rotor steels, and the hydrogen cracking of stainless steels and discussed the SCC phenomenon in metals with our DHC mode.

There are many reports on fatigue crack of metallic materials but most of them relate crack propagation rate to stress intensity factor. The problem of crack propagation is not yet clarified, especially the bridge between micro and macro phenomena In this experiment rotating bending fatigue tests have been carried out with smoothed specimen of rolled steel plates including 0.2% carbon under application of three stress conditions to investigate the slip band and the crack propagation behaviour. The results obtained are as follows; 1) The length of cracks which have grown at initial crack tips can be expressed as follows; $l=Ae^{BNr}$(A,B: constant, $N_r$: cycle ratio) $\frac{dl}{dN}=\frac{AB}{N_f}{\cdot}e^{BNr}$($N_f$:fatigue life) 2) The ratio of slipped grain number to total grain number is $S_f=7{\sigma}-5.6$-5.6{\sigma}_c$($\sigma$: stress amplitude) (${\sigma}_c$: fatigue limit) 3) When the fatigue process transfers from Stage I to Stage II, the crack which propagates into specimen changes its direction from that of the maximum shear stress to the direction of perpendicular to principal stress and this is same in the circumferential direction of specimen. the crack propagation behaviors of both sides of a crack are different each other when they approach to the grain boundary.

In this study, internal fatigue crack initiation and propagation behavior were investigated by triple piece spot welded specimen. To estimate fatigue life of the specimen varied with shape and thickness, Crack tip opening angle(CTOA) correlated with stress intensity factor was used as the stiffness parameter. The relation between fatigue life and CTOA can be arranged by the quantitative equation for each specimen by experiment. In addition, the variation of stress distribution was solved and the effect on fatigue crack behavior was examined by finite element method(FEM).
