This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element method analysis of repairing plate with bonded composite patch subjected to tensile load. The effect of the corrosion on the damage of the adhesive (FM73) in the length of two horizontal cracks on the both sides is presented. The obtained results show that the crack on the left side creates a very extensive area of the damaged zone and gives values of the stress intensity factor (SIF) higher than that on the right side. We can conclude that the left crack is more harmful (dangerous) than that on the right side.

Integrating a 3D solid modeler with a general purpose FEM code, an automatic nonlinear analysis system of the 3D crack problems has been developed. A geometry model, i.e. a solid containing one or several 3D cracks is defined. Several distributions of local node density are chosen, and then automatically superposed on one another over the geometry model by using the fuzzy knowledge processing. Nodes are generated by the bucketing method, and ten-noded quadratic tetrahedral solid elements are generated by the Delaunay triangulation techniques. The complete finite element(FE) model generated, and a stress analysis is performed. In this system, burden to analysts fur introducing 3D cracks to the FE model as well as fur estimating their fracture mechanics parameters can be dramatically reduced. This paper describes the methodologies to realize such functions, and demonstrates the validity of the present system.

선형 탄성 등방성 물체 내에 있는 일반적인 복합모드 크랙 문제들을 해석하기 위한 이중 경계적분방정식의 일반식과 계산해법이 제시되었다. 크랙면이 포함된 물체 해석에 있어서 유일한 해를 얻기 위하여, 한 면상의 점에는 변위 경계적분방정식이 적용되었고 마주하고 있는 상대면 상의 점에는 인력 경계적분방정식이 적용되었다. 인력 및 변위 경계적분방정식의 강특이해 및 초특이해 적분항들은 수치해법을 적용하기 전에 정상화되었다. 정상화과정 중 보정되는 강특이적분항이 상대 크랙면 상의 특이해 요소를 따라 직접 적분되는 것을 격리시키기 위하여, 특이해 적분 경로를 완만한 곡면으로 우회시킨 가상의 비특이해 보조경계로 대치하여 적분값을 계산하였다. 제시된 해법의 정확성과 효율성을 예시하기 위하여, 2차원 및 3차원 크랙 문제의 변형 후 모습과 응력강도계수 계산 결과를 보였다.

A fracture mechanics analysis methodology for stress corrosion cracks (SCCs) existing in the Alloy 600 nozzle weld joint for control rod drive mechanisms (CRDMs) of pressurized water reactor is studied. Effects of weld residual stresses on the sub-critical crack behavior during the reactor operation are investigated by a fracture mechanics analysis, which is combined with the finite element alternating method. It is found that effects f the residual stresses on the stress intensity factor (SIF) and crack growth rate (CGR) are dominant and values of SIF and CGR of cracks in the region of weld joint are increased by a factor of three or more on an average.

Postulation of flaws, one of the most important areas in RPV integrity assessment, significantly affects the results. In the present work, several parameters, such as orientation, underclad vs. surface cracking, crack depth and shape, etc., are postulated and parametric studies are performed to investigate the influence of the flaw parameters on the structural integrity assessment of the reactor pressure vessel during pressurized thermal shock. The influence of individual parameters describing the crack is evaluated based on sensitivity study results.

It is noted that KS D 3507 pipe steel has several problems when it is used as a city gas pipe at medium pressure. So new pipe steel, KS D 3631, was developed in order to be used as a pipe for medium and low pressure and now it is being substituted for D 3507. In this study, several mechanical tests, such as tensile test, microhardness test, and Charpy impact test were conducted to get material properties of D 3507 and D 3631 pipe steels. And also microstructures at the weld and heat affected zones were observed for the two materials. From the Charpy test results $K_{IC}/$ was estimated for the upper and lower shelf and the critical crack length is calculated for supposed axial semi-elliptical surface cracks. And the burst pressure is estimated as a function of wear depth for a defective D 3631 pipe by using the finite element method. The burst pressure is also calculated for pipes with an axial crack by using the published equations.

P-PIE program is developed for evaluating failure probability of pipes in nuclear power plants based on the existing PRAISE program. In the program, crack growth due to fatigue loading and stress corrosion can be considered and the probability of fracture or leakage of pipes can be calculated. Crack growth simulation is performed based on stress intensity factor and a damage parameter and failure of a pipe is determined based on J integral or net section yielding. Using the developed program the failure probabilities of tubes in a domestic nuclear power is obtained and discussed.

The objective of this study is to develop a technique that analyzes the global behavior of frame structures with local cracks. The technique is based on frame analysis and uses the stiffness matrix of cracked frame element. An algorithm proposed here analyzes a frame structure with local transverseedge cracks, considering the effects of crack length and location. Stress intensity factors are employed to calculate additional local compliance due to the cracks based on linear elastic fracture mechanics theory, and then this local compliance is utilized to derive the stiffness matrix of the cracked frame element. In order to verify the accuracy and reliability of the proposed approach, numerical results are compared with those of Finite Element Method for the cracked frame element, and the effects of single crack on the behavior of truss structure are also examined.

Many analysis methods, including finite element method, have been suggested and used for assessing the integrity of cracked structures. In the paper, in order to analyze arbitrary three dimensional cracks, the finite element alternating method is extended. The crack is modeled by the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method as a distribution of displacement discontinuities, which is formulated as singularity-reduced integral equations. And the finite element method is used to calculate the stress values for the uncracked body only. Applied the proposed method to several example problems for planner cracks in finite bodies, the accuracy and efficiency of the method were demonstrated.
