Many studies have been conducted to improve the corrosion resistance and durability of various aluminum alloys through the anodizing technique. It is already used as a unique technique for enhancing the properties of aluminum alloys in various industries. This paper investigated the electrochemical corrosion and stress corrosion cracking characteristics of anodized aluminum 5083-H321 alloy in natural seawater. The corrosion characteristics were assessed by the electrochemical technique and potentiodynamic polarization test. The stress corrosion cracking characteristic was evaluated with a slow strain rate tensile test under 0.005 mm/min rate, which showed that the hard anodizing film had a thickness of about 16.8 ㎛. Although no significant characteristics of stress corrosion cracking were observed in the slow strain rate test, the anodized specimen presented excellent corrosion resistance. The corrosion current density was measured to be approximately 4.2 times lower than that of the base material, and no surface damage was observed in the anodic polarization test.

The effect of inhibitors on the electrochemical behavior and the stress corrosion cracking resistance of Alloy 600(UNS N06600) was evaluated in 10% sodium hydroxide solution at $315^{\circ}C$. The specimens of a C-ring type for stress corrosion cracking test were polarized at 150 mV above the corrosion potential for 120 hours with and without inhibitors such as titanium oxide, titanium boride and cerium boride. The chemical compositions of the films formed on the crack tip in the C-ring specimens were analyzed using a scanning Auger electron spectroscopy. The cerium boride, the most effective, was observed to decrease the crack propagation rate more than a factor of three compared with that obtained in no inhibitor solution. It was found that the changes of the active-passive transition potentials and the film compositions were related to the resistance to stress corrosion cracking in high temperature caustic solution.

Corrosion fatigue cracking of the austenitic stainless steel(bese metal & heat affected zone by TIG weld) was studied experimentally under the environments of various specific resistance and air. The characteristics of corrosion fatigue crack growth rate and the environmental constants of paris' rule were investigated for SUS 304 weldments in the various specific resistance. The influences of stress intensity factor range and corrosion on the crack growth rate were compared. The characteristics of corrosion fatigue cracking for the weldments were inspected from mechanical, electrochemical and microstructural point of view. Main results obtained are as follows: 1) As the specific resistance decreases, the environmental constant C of paris'rule increases(hence the corrosion fatigue crack growth rate is rapid), but the environmental constant m decreases, so the effect of corrosion to the crack growth rate is more susceptible than thet of stress intensity factor range. 2) As the stress intensity factor range decreases, the corrosion fatigue crack growth rate of heat affected zone is more susceptible than that of the base metal. 3) The corrosion fatigue crack growth rate of the heat affected zone is more rapid than that of the base metal, because of the phenomenon of softening and the less noble potential coused by wedlding heat cycle. 4) The corrosion fatigue cracking of SUS 304 weldment appears transgranular fracture.

In the past, Alloy 600 nickel-based alloys have been widely used in steam generators. However, most of them have been replaced by thermally treated alloy 690 tubes in recent years because mill annealed alloy 600 materials are known to be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking. Unlike this general perception, some steam generators using mill annealed alloy 600 tubes show excellent performance even though they are designed, manufactured, and operated in the same way. Therefore, various analyses were carried out to determine causes for the degradation of steam generators. Based on the general stress corrosion cracking mechanism, tube material susceptibility, residual stress, and sludge deposits of steam generators were compared to identify factors affecting stress corrosion cracking. It was found that mill annealed alloy 600 steam generator tubes showed higher resistance to stress corrosion cracking when the amount of sludge deposits on tube surface was smaller and residual stress generated during the fabrication was lower.

The resistance of the linepipe steel to hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) and sulfide stress cracking (SSC) is very important for steel to be used in sour oil/gas environments. Welding of steels is necessary to the construction of pipe-line transporting oil/gas. In this study, HIC and SSC resistance of an electric resistance welded (ERW) steel plate which belongs to API X70 grade was evaluated by using NACE TM0284-96A and NACE TM0177-96A methods. HIC and SSC fracturing behavior was investigated by observing fractured surfaces using optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was discussed in terms of metallurgical parameters such as the distribution of primary microstructure, second phases and inclusions. Results showed that the weld joint of ERW steel is more sensitive than base metal to HIC and SSC. This is due to difference in the contribution of metallurgical parameters to HIC and SSC nucleation and propagation.

섬유는 콘크리트의 취약점인 인장 및 균열저항성을 증가시켜 그 효용성을 크게 한다. 그러나, 섬유의 균열저항성을 합리적으로 예측하기 위해서는 균열후의 거동예측기법이 정립되어야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 최근 들어 개발되고 있는 구조용 합성섬유 보강콘크리트의 균열후 거동(Post-Cracking Behavior)을 예측하기 위한 해석기법을 제시하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 합성섬유 보강 콘크리트 보의 균열단면해석에 있어서, 우선적으로 균열단면을 강체운동으로 가정하고, 균열폭(crack width) 및 균열면에 대해 기울기 90$^{\circ}$ 인 단일섬유의 인발실험(pullout test)에 의한 인발 하중(pullout load)과 변위(slip)의 관계를 이용하여 개개 섬유의 균열이후 거동을 묘사하였다. 또한 실제 섬유의 매립방향과 매립길이의 다양성을 확률적으로 고려하여 균열면에서의 유효섬유개수를 산정한 뒤에 FRC 보의 휨거동해석을 수행하였고, FRC 보 실험을 시행한 결과와 비교한 결과 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 해석결과로부터 하중-처짐 곡선, 모멘트-곡률 곡선 등을 도출할 수 있으며, 본 연구의 모델은 일정수준의 균열 저항성 또는 인성지수(toughness performance)를 얻기 위한 섬유의 기하형상을 개발하는데 유용한 방법으로 사용될 수 있다. 또한 평균응답, 파괴모드의 운동학으로 표현된 이 모델은 FRC 보 실험 결과들을 유사하게 예측할 수 있기 때문에 앞으로 섬유보강콘크리트 부재의 합리적인 설계 및 해석에 효율적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

AA7010 is an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy containing Zr, developed as an alternate to traditional AA7075 alloy owing to their high strength combined with better fracture toughness. It is necessary to improve the corrosion resistance and surface properties of the alloy by incorporating plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method. AA7010-T7452 aluminum alloy has been processed through the forging route with multi-stage working operations, and was coated with $10{\mu}m$ thick $Al_2O_3$ ceramic aluminina coating using the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method. The corrosion, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and nano-mechanical behaviours were examined by means of potentiodynamic polarization, slow strain rate test (SSRT) and nano-indentation tests. The results indicated that the additional thermomechanical treatment during the forging process caused a fully recrystallized microstructure, which lead to the poor environmental cracking resistance of the alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution, despite the overaging treatment. Although the fabricated PEO coating improved general corrosion resistance, the brittle nature of the coating did not provide any improvement in SCC resistance of the alloy. However, the hardness and elastic modulus of the coating were significantly higher than the base alloy.

The thermally insulated underground pipelines have been used for district heating system. The sensor wire embedded in the insulation was used for monitoring the insulating resistance between the sensor wire and the pipe. The resistance measurement system detects corrosion of steel pipe under insulation. The corrosion and stress corrosion cracking(SCC) characteristics of sensor wire in synthetic ground water were investigated using the electrochemical methods and constant load SCC tests. The polarization tests were used to study the electrochemical behavior of sensor wire. The sensor wire was passivated at temperatures ranging from 25 to $95^{\circ}C$. However, the applied sensing current larger than passive current resulted in breakdown of passive film. The constant load SCC tests were performed to investigate the effects of applied current and load on the fracture behavior. Stress-corrosion cracks initiated at pits that were produced by sensing current. The growth of the pit involves a tunnelling mechanism, which leads to ductile fracture.
