In the nuclear power plant, emergency core coolant system (ECCS) is furnished at reactor coolant system (RCS) in order to cool down high temperature water in case of emergency. However, in this coolant system, thermal stratification phenomenon can occur due to coolant leaking in the check valve. The thermal stratification produces excessive thermal stresses at the pipe wall so as to yield thermal fatigue crack (TFC) accident. In the present study, effects of turbulence penetration on the thermal stratification into T-branches with square cross-section in the modeled ECCS are analysed numerically. $textsc{k}$-$\varepsilon$ model is employed to calculate the Reynolds stresses in momentum equations. Results show that the length and strength of thermal stratification are primarily affected by the leak flow rate of coolant and the Reynolds number of the main flow in the duct. Turbulence penetration into the T-branch of ECCS shows two counteracting effects on the thermal stratification. Heat transport by turbulence penetration from the main duct to leaking flow region may enhance thermal stratification while the turbulent diffusion may weaken it.

Since the cement-water reaction is exothermic by nature, the temperature rise within a large concrete mass. Significant tensile stresses may develop from the volumn change associated with the increase and decrease of the temperature with the mass concrete. These thermal stresses will cause temperature-related cracking in mass concrete structures. These typical type of mass concrete include mat foundation, bridge piers, thich walls, box type walls, tunnel linings, etc. Crack control methods can be considered at such stages as designing, selecting the materials, and detailing the construction method. In this paper, the effect of placing of crack control joint or construction joint was analysed by a three dimensional finite element method. As a result, using this method, crack control can be easily performed for structures such as wall-type structures.

In the past two stroke low speed diesel engine were widely used for marine propulsion. these engine have many merit for example, higher thermal efficiency and durability. however, shaft vibration problem was continuously rise up due to large power of two stroke low speed diesel engine. specially, the initial stage engine revolution counter & stress has acculated. For that reason, sometimes occurred crankshaft crack accident. In this study, regarding the initial stage engine, trying to analyze what is cause the crack phenomenon using by latest torsional vibration calculation program & measurement equipment.

An accumulated crack damage which propagates progressively with time was frequently observed on several engineering structures, This paper numerically demonstrates this damage process on large cooling tower shells under thermal and wind loads. Damage states under varying loads are investigated and the influence of this progressive damage process on the life-cycle of cooling towers discussed. The paper presents briefly some fundamentals of the geometrically and physically non-linear numerical analysis employed for reinforced concrete, especially concerning the models used for concrete, steel reinforcement and the bond between them. As a numerical example an existing cooling tower with noticeable meridian crack damage is analysed. The existing damage state of the cooling tower is determined by quasi-static analyses for temperature, hygric and cyclic wind leading. The change in the dynamical behaviour of the structure as mirrored in its natural frequencies and mode shapes is presented and discussed. Finally, the example shows that such damage processes develop progressively over the life-time of the structures.

In solution and melting state, SiOD prepolymer was prepared by cured excess DDM with epoxy-terminated siloxane oligomers to control phase separation when DGEBA was blended with PDMS. DGEBA/SiOD prepolymer was also cured at $150^{\circ}C$ for 3hrs. Mechanical and thermal properties of the cured prepolymer specimen were investigated. DGEBA/SiOD60 specimen blended SiOD prepolymer had the best flexural strength, modulus and impact strength. To show crack-formation procedure to morphology, DGEBA/DDM neat specimen was flowed homogeneously in direction of crack energy, whereas DGEBA/SiOD$(30{\sim}60)$ specimen showed heterogeneously dispersed particles and scattered domain of crack energy, but DGEBA/SiOT specimen showed homogeneous phase.

The purposes of the paper are to consider the failure phenomenon based on delamination and crack when the encapsulant of plastic IC package under hygrothermal loading in the IR soldering process is on elastic and viscoelastic behavior due to the temperature and to show the optimum design using fracture mechanics. The model for analysis is the plastic SOJ package with a dimpled diepad. The package model with the perfect delamination between chip and diepad is chosen to estimate the resistance to fracture by calculating J-integrals in low temperature and C(t)-integrals in high temperature with the change of the design under hygrothermal loading. The optimum design to depress the delamination and crack in the plastic IC package is presented.

Ceramics are being increasingly used in industry due to their outstanding physical and chemical properties. But these materials are difficult to machine by traditional machining processes, because they are hard and brittle. Recently, as one of various alternative processes, laser-beam machining is widely used in the cutting of ceramics. Although the use of lasers presents a number of advantages over other methods, one of the problems associated with this process is the uncertain formation of cracks that result from the thermal stresses. This paper presents a Bayesian probabilistic modeling of crack formation over thin alumina plates during laser cutting.

Recently various pressure vessels like an atomic reactor and plant facilities become more larger and are needed to bear in both very high temperature and pressure condition. And in making such a high pressure vessels the amount of annual usage of 2 $\frac {1}{4}$ Cr-1Mo steels which are predominant to resist high temperature high pressure and corrosive circumstances are increasing. But despite of this advantage of 2 $\frac {1}{4}$Cr-1Mo steel. when PWHT(post welding heat treatment) is carried out lots of reheating cracks are occur. In this reason it is strongly needed to study and examine the mechanical behavior of welded joints through welding to PWHT process. So in this study welded nozzle of pressure vessel where reheat cracks are frequently occur are selected for analysis the crack-occurrence mechanism.

In this paper, we investigated the effect of solar cell breakage on maximum output power of PV module. The test result using artificial light source didn't give any change in output power in case of crack near electrical ribbon. Also, there was a reduction in output power in case of increasing of crack area far from electrical ribbon. But, this experiment is under artificial light source test method. So, when such a PV module is outdoor for a long time, there would be problems on electrical output power and durability because of thermal aging phenomenon of solar cell breakage.

A cracked tooth is defined as an incomplete fracture initiated from the crown and extending subgingivally and usually directed mesiodistally. Cracked teeth were most frequently involved in mandibular and maxillary molars at the age of 50s. Cracks occurred mainly in nonbonded restorations such as gold and amalgam, and majority of cracks were found in intact teeth. A pulpal and periapical diagnosis is dependent on the extent of the crack and duration of the symptom. The pulp of a cracked tooth might become inflamed because of microleakage, which induces thermal sensitivity. Once the crack has extended and exposed the pulp, severe pulp and periapical pathosis will likely be present. In addition, the extended crack can cause a bony dehiscence with a resulting narrow and deep periodontal pocket. Therefore, early diagnosis of the cracked tooth and proper treatment planning are important for clinician.
