花崗巖 Beam 試料에 대하여 4-Point Bending 試驗이 진행되는 동안 試料 破壤에 隋伴된 AE 信號를 Calibrated PZT Transducer와 6-Channel Recording System으로 기록하여 分析함으로서 微細 龜裂源의 特性과 機構를 糾明하였다. 微細 龜裂의 體積은 수 um3에서 150.000um3의 넓은 범위를 보였으며, 引張形 龜裂이 斷形에 비하여 大體的으로 큰 것으로 밝혀 졌다. 龜裂源에서의 强度는 Mode I 荷重 下에서 기록된 것이 Mixed Mode 試驗에서 얻어진 것보다 그 平均値가 약 3배 정도 크게 나타났으나, 전체 AE 數에 있어어는 反對로 Mixed Mode 試驗에서 기록된 것의 약 25% 밖에 되지 않아서 같은 크기의 破壤面을 形成하는데 必要한 에너지 要求量이 일정함을 暗示하였다. 미세 龜裂面의 方位는 垂直 및 水平에 近接한 傾斜를 가지며 走向은 최종 試料의 破壤面과 일치할 뿐만 아니라 龜裂源이 시료 破壤面에 집중되게 分布하여서 微細 龜裂이 試料龜裂을 야기시키는 原因임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, Mode I 荷重 下에서는 引張形의 微細龜裂이 압도적으로 優勢하였고, Mixed Mode 荷重 下에서는 引張과 斷形의 微細龜裂이 약 3,6:1 比率로 分布하여서 荷重 條件이 微細 龜裂의 機構와 密接한 關係가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This paper presents the fabrication of inchworm motor for high precision actuator system of large displacement and high force. The inchworm motor consists of a extend actuator that provides displacement of tool guide and two clamping actuators which provide the holding force. In order to avoid the PZT fracture, design of pre-load housing was conducted by flexure hinge structure, because PZT actuator has low tensile and shear. To design the pre-load housing and optimize the clamping mechanism, the static and dynamic analysis were conducted by finite element method. From these results, a prototype of the inchworm motor was fabricated and dynamic characteristic with respect to the various frequency was tested. The maximum velocity of the inchworm motor was $41.1{\mu}m/s$ at 16Hz.

In this study, we investigate the feasibility of in-situ crack propagation by using a double cleavage drilled compression (DCDC) specimen showing a slow crack velocity down to 0.03 mm/s under 0.01 mm/s of displacement control. Finite element analysis predicted that the DCDC specimens would show at least 4.3 fold delayed crack initiation time than conventional tensile fracture specimens under a constant loading speed. Using DCDC specimens, we were able to observe the in-situ crack propagation process in a particle reinforced transparent polymer composite. Our results confirmed that the DCDC specimen would be a good candidate for the in-situ observation of the behavior of particle reinforced composites with slow crack velocity, such as the self-healing process of micro-particle reinforced composites.

The paper presents an overview of the present state of study on the fatigue behaviors at very high number of cycles ($N_f$ > $10^7$). A classification of materials with typical S-N curves and influencing factors such as notches, residual stresses, temperatures, corrosion environments and stress ratios are given. The microstructural inhomogeneities of materials and micro-cracks played an important roles in very high cycle fatigue behaviors. The failure mechanisms for the fatigue design of materials and components are mentioned.

Micro-structure and shear properties with reflow conditions, reflow temperature and time, for In-48Sn solder on BGA package were examined at the temperature between 140 and 170$^{\circ}C$ for 10 to 3600sec. With increasing reflow temperature and time, the thickness of intermetallic compound formed between solder and pad increased. Shear test indicated shear force increased in the range to a critical value of reflow time, and decreased over a critical reflow time. With increasing reflow temperature and time, the crater occurred on fracture surface because of a increase of crater by voids and IMC particles precipitated in solder.

In rock, there are many microsopic structures which influence the mechnical behavior of rock. Many microstructures interact with each other, and furthermore, material constants vary discontinuously within rock, as most rocks are composed of several minerals. Taking into account this feature, it may be possible to contemplate a microstructure of rock as a unit cell by which the rock is constituted periodically. If this idealization is acceptable, the homogenization method can be applied. In this research, various microcracks on rock specimens were observed through a stereoscopic microscope under uniaxial compression. On the other hand, local stress distribution in the periodic-micro structure was calculated by the homogenization method. Then it is shown that there is a possibility to establish a relation between the behavior of microcrack and macroscopic load quantitatively by the linear fracture mechanics.

(100) single crystal Si은 좋은 anisotropy etching 성질과 기계적 강도를 가지고 있어 MEMS 구조용 소재로 사용되고 있다. (100) Si의 신뢰성 평가를 위하여 필요한 탄성계수를 측정하고 반복동작에 의한 응력에 의한 파손특성을 평가하기 위하여 micromachining을 통해 resonator를 제작하였다. Resonator의 공진주파수를 분석함으로써 탄성계수를 추하고자 하였으며 반복응력에 대한 파괴특성을 평가하기 위하여 공진 상태에서 파괴가 일어날 때까지의 사이를 수를 측정함으로써 반복음력에 대한 Si의 피로특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 실험 결과 (100) Si의 <110> 방향으로의 탄성 개수를 측정할 수 있었으며 Si의 미세파손의 응력에 대한 의존성을 평가할 수 있었다. 평가결과 Si의 미세파손 메커니즘은 억제된 균열의 진전에 의한 subcritical crack에 의한 피로파괴 현상보다는 과도한 스트레스에 의한 순간적인 균열전파에 의해 지배됨을 관찰할 수 있었다.

전자 산업의 발달에 따라 전자 패키지에서 소자의 소형화 및 고집적화가 가속화되고 그로 인해 interconnection 부분의 신뢰성 평가의 중요성이 나날이 증가되고 있다. 특히 이러한 interconnection 부분 중 솔더 접합부는 사용중 솔더와 UBM(Under Bump Metallurgy) 층 사이에 금속간화합물이 생성되어 접합 강도가 저하되는 것이 큰 문제로 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 공정 Sn-Ag 솔더 접합부에 대해 열시효 시간에 따라 접합 강도를 측정하고 파괴 기구 및 파괴 경로의 분석을 통해 접합 강도 변화와의 연관성을 도출하고자 하였다. 그 결과 열시효 초기에는 미세 조직의 조대화 및 불균일 조대 성장이 가속화되면서 응력 및 변형 집중으로 인해 솔더 내부에서 연성 파괴가 일어나 급격한 접합 강도의 저하가 발생하였으나 금속간 화합물이 생성, 성장함에 따라 금속간 화합물 내부에서의 취성 파괴가 나타나면서 접합 강도 저하가 포화되는 경향을 보였다.

A comprehensive review on sliding and solid particle erosion wear characteristics of silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics and SiC composites is provided. Sliding or erosion wear behavior of ceramics is dependent on various material characteristics as well as test parameters. Effects of microstructural and mechanical properties of SiC ceramics are particularly focused to understand tribological performance of SiC ceramics. Results obtained between varieties of pairs of SiC ceramics indicate complexity in understanding dominant mechanisms of material removal. Wear mechanisms during sliding are mainly divided in two groups as mechanical and tribochemical. In solid particle erosion conditions, wear mechanisms of SiC ceramics are explained by elastic-plastic deformation controlled micro-fracture on the surface followed by radial-lateral crack propagation beneath the plastic zone.

Application of reduced web beam section (RWBS) as a sacrificial fuse element has become a popular research field in recent years. Weakening of beam web in these connections may cause local web buckling around the opening area which can affect cyclic behavior of connection including: maximum load carrying capacity, strength degradation rate, dissipated energy, rotation capacity, etc. In this research, effect of local web buckling on the cyclic behavior of RWBS connections is investigated using finite element modeling (FEM). For this purpose, a T-shaped moment connection which has been tested under cyclic loading by another author is used as the reference model. Fracture initiation in models is simulated using Cyclic Void Growth Model (CVGM) which is based on micro-void growth and coalescence. Included in the results are: effect of opening corner radii, opening dimensions, beam web thickness and opening reinforcement. Based on the results, local web buckling around the opening area plays a significant role on the cyclic behavior of connection and hence any parameter affecting the local web buckling will affect entire connection behavior.
