  • Tests of concrete CLWL-DCB specimens had been conducted with displacement-controlled dynamic loading. The crack velocities for 381mm crack extension were 0.80 mm/sec ~ 215m/sec. The external work and the kinetic and strain energies were derived from the measured external load and load-point displacement. The fracture resistance of a running crack was calculated from the fitted curves of the fracture energy required for the tests. The standard error of the fracture energy was less than 3.2%. The increasing rate of the fracture resistance for 28 mm initial crack extension or micro-cracking was relatively small, and then the slope of the fracture resistance increased to the maximum value at 90∼145 mm crack extension depending on crack velocity. The maximum fracture resistance remained for 185 mm crack extension, and then the faster crack velocity showed the faster decreasing rate of the maximum fracture resistance. The maximum fracture resistance increased proportionally to the logarithm of the crack velocity from 142 N/m to 217 N/m when the crack velocity was faster than 0.273 m/sec. The maximum fracture resistance of the fastest tests was similar to the average fracture energy density of 215 N/m. To measure the fracture resistance of concrete, the stable crack extension should be larger than 90∼145 mm depending on crack velocity.

  • The resistance curves (R-curves) for 381 m crack extension of CLWL-DCB specimens had been determined. The average velocities of the crack extension measured with strain gages were 0.70 and 55 ㎜/sec. The measured rotation angle of the notch faces showed the existence of the singularity at least before 171 and 93 mm crack extensions for the 0.70 and 55 ㎜/sec crack velocities, respectively. The maximum slopes of the R-curves occurred between 25 and 89 ㎜ crack extensions for 0.70 ㎜/sec crack velocity and between 51 and 127 ㎜ crack extensions for 55 ㎜/sec crack velocity During the maximum slopes of the R-curves, the micro-crack localization can be expected, and faster crack velocity may form longer micro-cracking and micro-crack localizing zones. The fracture resistance of 0.70 ㎜/sec crack velocity reached a roughly constant maximum value of 143 N/m at 152 ㎜ crack extension, while that of 55 ㎜/sec crack velocity increased continuously to 245 N/m at 254 ㎜ crack extension and then decreased to the value of 0.70 ㎜/sec crack velocity. The R-curve of 55 ㎜/sec crack velocity was similar to that of the small size three-point bend test, and it showed that small size specimen or fast crack velocity could cause more brittle behavior.

  • The bond-based peridynamic model is able to capture many of the essential characteristics of dynamic brittle fracture observed in experiments: crack branching, crack-path instability, asymmetries of crack paths, successive branching, secondary cracking at right angles from existing crack surfaces, etc. In this paper we investigate the influence of the stress waves on the crack branching angle and the velocity profile. We observe that crack branching in peridynamics evolves as the phenomenology proposed by the experimental evidence: when a crack reaches a critical stage(macroscopically identified by its stress intensity factor) it splits into two or more branches, each propagating with the same speed as the parent crack, but with a much reduced process zone.

  • The dynamic loads and load-point displacements of concrete three-point bend (TPB) specimens had been measured. The average crack velocities measured with strain gages were 0.16 ㎜/sec ∼ 66 m/sec. The fracture energy for crack extension was determined from the difference of the kinetic energy for the load-point velocity and the strain energy without permanent deformation from the measure external work. For all crack velocities, there were micro-cracking for 23 ㎜ crack extension, stable cracking for 61 ㎜ crack extension at the maximum strain energy, and then unstable cracking. The unstable crack extension was arrested at 80 ㎜ crack extension except the tests of 66 m/sec crack velocity. The tests less than 13 ㎜/sec crack velocity and faster than 1.9 m/sec showed static and dynamic fracture behaviors, respectively. In spite of much difference of the load and load-point displacement relations for the crack velocities, the crack velocities of dynamic tests did not affect on fracture energy rate during the stable crack extension due to the reciprocal action of kinetic force, crack extension and strain energy. During stable crack extension, the maximum fracture resistances of the dynamic tests was 147% larger than that of the static tests.

  • The fracture energy evaluated from the previous experimental results can be simulated by using the modified singular fracture process zone (S-FPZ) model. The fracture model has two fracture properties of strain energy release rate for crack extension and crack close stress versus crack width relationship $f_{ccs}$ ( w ) for fracture process zone (FPZ) development. The $f_{ccs}$( w ) relationship is not sensitive to specimen geometry and crack velocity. The fracture energy rate in the FPZ increases linearly with crack extension until the FPZ is fully developed. The fracture criterion of the strain energy release rate depends on specimen geometry and crack velocity as a function of crack extension. The variation of strain energy release rate with crack extension can explain theoretically the micro-cracking, micro-crack localization and full development of the FPZ in concrete.

  • Steel structures have a higher probability of being damaged by fatigue than by other causes of deterioration. As such, their maintenance to prevent fatigue damage is essential to sustain their safety and performance during their service period. In their maintenance, the current state of their fatigue cracks must be assessed to determine appropriate reinforcement methods and the suitable time intervals of periodic inspections when fatigue cracks are detected. Determining the crack growth rate is a successful method of predicting fractures, but it requires technical knowledge on fracture mechanics and experience in numerical methods and software for finite element analysis. In this study, a fatigue crack growth test on through-thickness cracked steel plates was conducted to assess the crack growth rate without superior technical knowledge and experience. The relationship between the Crack Opening Displacement (COD) and the crack growth rate was found in relatively long fatigue cracks.

  • 다양한 공학/산업적 측면에서 동적 취성 파괴 현상은 매우 중요하다. 취성 균열은 다른 균열 전파에 비해 그 전파 속도가 매우 빠르고 전파 범위가 넓기 때문에 대규모의 파괴 현상을 일으킨다. 동적 전파 중인 취성 균열 거동을 모델화하기 위해 오랜 기간 동안 많은 연구가 진행되었지만, 여전히 많은 부분들이 해석되지 못한 채 남아있다. 특히 균열 생성 및 전파를 위해 인위적인 조건들을 도입해야 하는 것은 기존 방법론들이 가지는 공통적인 문제점이다. 본 연구는 peridynamics를 동적 분기 균열 문제 해석에 도입한다. Peridynamics는 전통적인 연속체 이론에 기반한 수치해석 모델화 기법으로 균열과 같은 비연속성이 있는 문제의 모델화에 강점이 있으며, 인위적인 조건 없이 매우 간단한 방법으로 파괴 현상을 해석할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 peridynamics 모델이 실험적으로 관측된 분기균열 형상과 균열 전파 속도를 매우 잘 예측해 낼 수 있음을 보인다. 또한 균열팁 주변에 높은 응력이 발생할 때 나타나는 연쇄 분기 현상도 해석할 수 있다. 이와 같은 연구를 통해 응력파가 균열 전파 속도를 변화시키고 전파 방향에도 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다. 수치해석 결과도 또한 실험 결과들과 잘 부합함을 확인하였다.

  • Crack growth characteristics of elastomeric materials are an important factor determining the strength and durability. In this study, the fatigue crack growth characteristic of filled EPDM compounds with different reinforcing fillers, such as silica and carbon black, was investigated using a newly designed tester. Frequency and test temperature had significant effects on the fatigue crack growth. The crack growth rate decreased with increasing frequency and the rate increased with increasing temperature. A power law relationship between the tearing energy and crack growth was observed for filled EPDM compounds. The crack growth rate reduced with increasing filler contents. Silica filled EPDM showed a better fatigue resistance than carbon black filled EPDM. The crack growth rate of silica filled EPDM decreased up to 30 phr and increased again at 50 phr. The formation of microductile type pits was observed on the fatigue-failure surface of unfilled EPDM, and relatively coarse surface with randomly distributed tear lines was observed on the failure surface of silica filled EPDM.

  • Steel structures have been allowed to have fatigue damage tolerance in fact. If it would be assessed whether fatigue crack is growing or not and How fast fatigue crack is propagating, we should make a rational decision on methods and a period of reinforcement in the maintenance. In this study, fatigue crack growth tests on two kinds of through-thickness cracked steel plates and a out-of-plane gusset welded joint were conducted to evaluate fatigue crack growth rate using the COD(Crack Opening Displacement), and COD measurement using strain gauges was examined to offer a practical method. As a result, we proposed a reasonable assessing method for fatigue crack growth rate using the COD and it was experimentally proved practical to estimate the COD through measuring strains.
