본 논문에서는 두꺼운 배관에 존재하는 비 이상화된 원주방향 관통균열의 탄성 응력확대계수 해를 제시하였다. 이를 위해 3차원 탄성 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 배관의 형상 및 비 이상화된 원주방향 관통균열의 영향을 고려하기 위해 배관의 두께, 기준균열길이 및 관통균열길이 비를 체계적으로 변화시켰다. 하중 조건으로는 인장하중, 굽힘모멘트 및 내압을 고려하였다. 또한 본 논문에서는 이상화된 원주방향 관통 균열로부터 비 이상화된 원주방향 관통균열의 응력확대계수를 쉽게 계산하기 위해 관통균열 보정계수를 제시하였다. 본 논문의 결과는 실제 균열성장거동을 고려하여 원자력 배관의 배관파단확률을 보다 정확하게 계산하기 위해 적용될 수 있다.

This study evaluated the effect of restraint of pressure induced bending(PIB) on crack mouth opening displacement(CMOD) for circumferential through-wall crack in pipe by using both elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analyses. The analyses results showed the restraint of PIB was decreased crack opening for a given crack length and tensile stress, and the effect was considerable for large crack and short restraint length. Also, the restraint effect on CMOD was independent on the variation in pipe diameter and decreased with increasing pipe thickness, and it depended on not total restraint length but short restraint length for non-symmetrically restrained. Additionally, the effect of restraint of PIB was more significant in the elastic-plastic analysis results compared with in the elastic analysis results.

For the Tailor Welded Blank sheet used for automobile body panel, the characteristics of fatigue strength and crack propagation behavior were studied. The thickness of specimens was joined to be same (0.9mm+0.9mm) and different (0.9mm+2.0mm) .As a base test, mechanical properties around weld zone were examined . The results indicated that there were no significant decreases in mechanical properties , but hardness around weld bead was 2.3 times greater than base material . The fatigue strength was the highest when the loading direction was parallel to the welding direction, which was about 85% of tensile strength of base material. It was decreased by 8.5% when the thickness of specimens and base metal was different, and it was increased by 25% when pres-strain was applied. The crack propagation rate was noticeably decreased around weld line and rapidly increased as it passed through weld line. Reviewing the shape of the crack propagation , crack width around weld line was around the weld zone due to retardation of crack growth , but is became narrow passing weld line due to decreased toughness.

Crack closure and growth behavior of physically short fatigue cracks under random loading are investigated by performing narrow- and wide-band random loading tests for various stress ratios. The importance of the crack closure phenomenon is examined by predicting the growth lives of short cracks using obtained crack opening behavior. Artificially prepared two-dimensional, short through-thickness cracks are used. The crack opening load of short cracks is much lower under random loading than under constant-amplitude loading corresponding to the largest load cycle in a random load history. This result indicates that the largest load cycle in a random load history has an effect to enhance crack opening of short cracks. Most of the life prediction ratios are within the factor of 2 scatter band except several data at very short crack sizes, indicating that crack growth predictions based on the measured crack opening data are excellent. From the results obtained in this study, it can be concluded that crack closure is the primary factor governing fatigue crack growth of short cracks under random loading as well as under constant-amplitude loading.

A crack identification method using an equivalent bending stiffness and natural frequency for cracked beam is presented. Modal properties of cantilever beam with a tip mass is identified by applying the boundary conditions to a general solution. An equivalent bending stiffness for cracked beam based on an energy method is used to identify natural frequencies of cantilever thin-walled pipe with a tip mass, which has a through-the-thickness crack, subjected to bending. The identified natural frequencies of the cracked beam are used in constructing training patterns of neural networks. Then crack location and size are identified using a committee of the neural networks. Crack detection was carried out for an example beam using the proposed method, and the identified crack locations and sizes agree reasonably well with the exact values.

A method of prediction for the fatigue life of surface crack, that is, initial cracks grow and penetrate through the thickness, was presented in the previous study of the author. Effects of parameters such as the initial crack length, material factors, etc., for the life were discussed. In this paper, the probabilistic distribution of the life is calculated. Effects of the distribution of parameters for the distribution of life were also discussed.

원자력 배관 설계에는 파단전 누설(leak before break, LBB) 개념이 사용되고 있다. LBB 개념의 적용을 위해서는 관통균열을 통한 누설률을 정확하게 예측할 수 있어야 한다. 단면적이 일정한 관통균열에 대한 누설률 해석은 많이 이루어지고 있으나 실제 관찰되는 관통균열에서는 배관 내면 쪽과 외면 쪽의 단면적이 다른 경우가 많이 발생된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 유동경로를 따라 선형적으로 변화하는 단면적을 가진 관통균열에 대하여 누설률을 평가하여 단면적의 분포가 누설률에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 또한 클래딩 등에 의하여 두께 방향으로 이중 재료로 된 배관에 존재하는 관통균열에 대해서도 누설률을 평가하여 유동경로를 따라 달라지는 균열면 형태학적 변수가 누설률에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다.

The accurate estimation of leak rate through cracks is crucial in applying the leak before break (LBB) concept to pipeline design in nuclear power plants. Because of its importance, several programs were developed based on the several proposed flow models, and used in nuclear power industries. As the flow models were developed for a homogeneous pipe material, however, some difficulties were encountered in estimating leak rates for bimaterial pipes. In this paper, a flow model is proposed to estimate leak rate in bimaterial pipes based on the modified Henry-Fauske flow model. In the new flow model, different crack morphology parameters can be considered in two parts of a flow path. In addition, based on the proposed flow model, a program was developed to estimate leak rate for a crack with linearly varying cross-sectional area. Using the program, leak rates were calculated for through-thickness cracks with constant or linearly varying cross-sectional areas in a bimaterial pipe. The leak rate results were then compared and discussed in comparison with the results for a homogeneous pipe. The effects of the crack morphology parameters and the variation in cross-sectional area on the leak rate were examined and discussed.

Finite element analysis for the stress intensity factor (SIF) at the skin/stiffener structure with inclined central crack repaired by composite stiffened panels is developed. A numerical investigation was conducted to characterize the fracture behavior and crack growth behavior at the inclined crack. In order to investigate the crack growth direction, maximum tangential stress (MTS) criterion are used. Also, this paper is to study the performance of the effective bonded composite patch repair of a plate containing an inclined central through-crack. The main objective of this research is the validation of the inclined crack patching design. In this paper, the reduction of stress intensity factors at the crack-tip and prediction of crack growth direction are determined to evaluate the effects of various non-dimensional design parameter including; composite patch thickness and stiffener distance. We report the results of finite element analysis on the stiffener locations and crack slant angles and discuss them in this paper. The research on cracked structure subjected to mixed mode loading is accomplished and concludes that more work using a different approaches is necessary. The authors hope the present study will aid those who are responsible for the repair of damaged aircraft structures and also provide general repair guidelines.

강부재의 피로가 주요원인이 되어 구조물이 붕괴되거나 교체되는 사례를 찾아보기 어렵다. 이처럼 사실상 피로에 대해서는 손상을 허용하고 있지만, 발견되는 피로균열에 대한 직접적인 상태평가는 이루어지지 않고 있다. 피로균열에 대한 진전 비진전성의 판단 및 균열진전속도의 평가가 이루어져야만, 합리적인 보수 보강 공법의 선정과 시행시기가 결정될 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 측정되는 COD(Crack Opening Displacement)를 통한 피로균열진전속도 평가법을 검토하기 위하여, 2종류의 관통 균열 시험편과 면외거셋 용접이음 시험편의 균열진전시험을 실시하였다. 그리고 실용적인 COD의 측정을 위해 변형률 게이지를 이용하는 방법에 대해 검토하였다. 그 결과, COD 측정을 통한 균열진전속도의 합리적인 평가법을 제안하였고, 변형률 게이지를 이용한 성공적인 COD 측정을 실험적으로 증명하였다.
