Acoustic emission (AE) signals, emanated during local failure of aluminum alloys, have been the subject of numerous investigations. It is well known that the characteristics of AE are strongly influenced by the previous thermal and mechanical treatment of the sample. Possible sources of AE during deformation have been suggested as the avalanche motion of dislocations, fracture of brittle particles, and debonding of these particles from the alloy matrix. The goal of the present study is to determine if AE occurring as the result of fatigue crack propagation could be evaluated by the joint time-frequency analysis method, short time Fourier transform (STFT), and Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD). The time-frequency analysis methods can be used to analyze non-stationary AE more effectively than conventional techniques. STFT is more effective than WVD in analyzing AE signals. Noise and frequency characteristics of crack openings and closures could be separated using STFT. The influence of various fatigue parameters on the frequency characteristics of AE signals was investigated.

In domestic construction industry progress, construction and quality control of large structures are considered to be important as the superstructure and mass scale of structures. In the case of mass concrete, high hydration heat caused by cement hydration generates temperature stress by generating internal temperature difference with the concrete surface. These temperature stresses cause cracks to penetrate the concrete structure. A method of lowering the heat generation by incorporating Urea in order to reduce the concrete temperature crack has been proposed. In this study, the heat function coefficient for the FEM temperature crack analysis of the mass concrete containing the element was derived and the adiabatic temperature rise test was carried out according to the incorporation of the element. As a result of this experiment, the maximum temperature of 41 ± 1℃ was obtained irrespective of the amount of urea, and the maximum temperature decreased by 16.9℃ in concrete containing 40kg/㎥ of urea.

This study examined the effects of the epoxidized castor oil (ECO) and $Al_2O_3$ content on the thermal stability and fracture toughness of the diglycidylether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA)/ECO/$Al_2O_3$ ternary composites using a range of techniques. The thermal stability of the composites was decreased by the addition of ECO and $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles. The fracture toughness of the composites was improved significantly by the addition of ECO and $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles. The composite containing 3 wt % $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles showed the maximum flexural strength. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed tortuous cracks in the DGEBA/ECO/$Al_2O_3$ composites, which prevented deformation and crack propagation.

The initiation and the propagation of solder joint crack depend on its environmental conditions, such as high temperature creep and thermal fatigue. Creep is known to be the most important factor for the mechanical failure of solder joints in micro-electronic components and micro-systems. This is mainly caused by the different thermal expansion coefficients of the materials used in the micro-electronic packages. To determine the reliability of solder joints and consequently the electronic components, the characterization of the creep behavior of this group of materials is crucial. This paper is to apply the theory of creep into solder joints and to provide related technical information needed for evaluation of reliability of solder joint to failure. 63Sn-37Pb solder was used in this study. This paper experimentally shows a way to enhance the reliability of solder joints.

This paper explains the process design for improving tool life in the conventional hot forging process. The thermal load and the thermal softening are happened by contact between the hotter billet and the cooler tools in hot forging process. Tool life decreases considerably due to the softening of the surface layer of a tool was caused by a high thermal load and long contact time between the tools and the billet. Also, tool life is to a large extent limited by wear, heat crack and plastic deformation in hot forging process. Above all, the main factors which affect die accuracy and tool life we wear and the plastic deformation of a tool. The newly developed techniques for predicting tool life are applied to estimate the production quantity for a spindle component and these techniques can be applied to improve the tool life in hot forging process.

In this study, we investigated the efficient FE modelling techniques for thermal stress analysis of the exhaust manifold subject to thermo-mechanical cyclic loadings. At first, full engine model was considered to identify the critical locations and their results were compared to failure site shown by the engine bench test. And the equivalent system model was proposed based on the mechanical behavior of the full engine model. The weak areas of both FE models show a good agreement with the experimental crack location. As a result, a simplified modelling methodology was verified to estimate the thermo-mechanical behaviors of the exhaust manifold under thermal shock test condition.

Characteristics of two correcting methods, a new Autogeneous GTAW heating (TIG) method and the conventional GMAW bead-on plate welding(MIG) method, for distorted aluminum fabrication structures were studied. As a result of microscopic study of Autogeneous GTAW heating and GMAW bead-on plate welding areas, porosities in weld metal and surface cracks in local heating zone were found. Through the mechanical tests, it was verified that porosities decrease tensile strength and surface of distortion, angular displacement and transeverse shrinkage were measures and compared. In order to investigate changes of material properties in heating area and cause of defects such thermal stresses were calculated by ADINA. Through the computations of transient thermal stresses and microscopic observation of fracture surface, thermal stress was found to be the cause of crack during Autogeneous GTAW heating.

Thermal fatigue test and stress analysis of Si3N4 and metal swirl chamber were carried out to investigate the reliability of the swirl chambers. Conditions of the thermal fatigue test were severer than those in real engine and FEM was used to analize the stress distribution in the swirl chambers. Fatigue cracks of the maximum length 2.4 mm and deformation were occurred at the corner of the jet in metal swirl chamber but not observed in Si3N4 swirl chamber. Maximum tensile stress in Si3N4 swirl chamber calculated by FEM was 300 MPa.

This paper provides V-factor estimation under combined mechanical and thermal load for circumferential cracks. Results are based on finite element analyses and effect of types and magnitudes of the thermal stress, crack geometry, the loading mode and plastic strain hardening on variations of the V-factor are investigated. The results of finite element analyses are compared with R6 values. As a result, it is shown that R6 gives generally conservative results. The conservatism is especially increased for the combination of large mechanical and thermal load. As a result, new estimation method which uses failure assessment line in R6 is proposed for V-factor and gives less conservative results.
