발파시 공벽 주변에서 방사상으로 발생하는 무수한 균열들을 제어하고 일정한 방향으로 절단면을 형성하기 위해서 split tube를 이용한 발파 방법에 대한 현장 실험을 실시하였다. 현장 실험결과 절단면을 발달시키고자 하는 방향으로 제어할 수 있었다. 계산에 의한 발파압력과 제어된 균열면의 길이를 비교하였다. 현장 벤치 벽면에서 에멀젼 계열 폭약의 발파 압력이 700㎫이상일 경우 균열을 원하는 방향으루 제어할 수 있었을 뿐만 아니라, 공경의 30배까지 균열이 전파되었다.

It has been reported that fatigue damage sometimes occurred at the stress concentrated and dynamic loaded structural members of bulk carrier. In this paper, studies on fatigue strength of hull structures are reviewed, and the program for evaluating fatigue strength is developed. And the fatigue crack initiation and propagation on the end part of cargo hold frame of bulk carrier were calculated by FEM stress analysis and the fatigue strength evaluation program. These method can be applied not only to the crack initiation life but also to crack propagation life for the hull structural members at the hull design stage and be effective as the guideline to prevent the crack initiation or to estimate the fatigue strength for repairing of the fatigue damaged structures of real ships.

The dynamic photoelasticity with the aid of Cranz-Shardin type high speed camera system is utilized to record the dynamically propagating behavior of the interface crack. This paper investigates the effects of the hole (existed along the path of the crack propagation) shape on the dynamic interface crack propagation behavior by comparing the experimental isochromatic fringes to the theoretical stress fields.

It is useful way to make indentations near crack tip in order to increase fatigue life or repair a fatigue crack. In this study, bending fatigue tests were performed to investigate the optimal position of the indentations near crack tip. The results shows that fatigue life of the specimen is dramatically increased by indentation and the most effective location is the back of the crack tip.

연속슬립캐스팅 및 상압소결법으로 $Al_2$O$_3$/ZrO$_2$적층복합체를 제조하였으며, 적층복합체에서 ZrO$_2$층을 단사정, 정방정 및 입방정으로 각각 달리 적층하여 균열생성 및 전파 거동에 미치는 ZrO$_2$상의 영향을 고찰하였다. 균열 생성은 냉각시 $Al_2$O$_3$층과 ZrO$_2$층 간의 열팽창 계수의 차이에 의한 열적불일치응력이 가장 큰 요인으로 작용하였다. 적층체 내에 존재하는 균열은 tetra-ZrO$_2$의 경우 적층두께 조절로 가능하였으며, cubic-ZrO$_2$의 경우는 냉각속도 조절로 균열밀도로 크게 낮출 수 있었다. $Al_2$O$_3$/ZrO$_2$적층체를 구성하는 세가지 ZrO$_2$상(mono, tetra, cubic)들 중에서 cubic-ZrO$_2$가 포함된 적층체의 경우 $Al_2$O$_3$와 ZrO$_2$계면에 형성된 잔류압축응력으로 인한 균열굴절 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

A numerical analysis was performed to investigate the effects of notched blasthole in controlling the fracture plane. Analyzed were elastic and elasto-plastic response of rock, and fracture propagation under static and dynamic load conditions. Results showed that the region exceeding the tensile strength extended up to three times the radius of a normal blasthole in elastic analysis, while fifteen times in elasto-plastic analysis. It was shown that a crack was driven from the notch tip up to the distance of 23 times the hole radius in the case of a notched blasthole with a notch of 5 mm in depth and 30 mm in length.

The elastic dynamic crack curving could be obtained by controlling the loading rate, the initial crack-tip blunting to store much energy before crack initiation and the magnitude of reflected wave from finite boundaries. However there is no theoretical and experimental elastic-plastic dynamic curving study. This paper proposes a specimen geometryfor a study of dynamic elastic-plastic crack curving and presents a preliminary result. The specimen has a blunt physical crack tip on a side, and a round notch tip on the other side. From the experiment using this specimen, it is found that the narrow plastic zone ahead of the round notch tip produces the change of load direction and anti-symmetricity of the dynamic isochromatics, and each result causes the crack curving phenomenon. After a certain time, as the elastic-plastic crack gets close to the round notch tip near, the degree of the crack curving get larger. The elastic reack curving propagates more sensitively to the surround of crack tip than the plastic crack curving does. The cynamic elastic-plastic crack curving is found to be proportional to the CTOA(the crack tip opening angle). The dynamic elastic-plastic crack may propagate in the direction perpendicular to the loading. An apparant strip yield zone which is similar to the Dugdale strip yield zone is noted ahead of the physical crack tip.

In this study, we have investigated the closure behavior of fatigue cracks in SAPH440 steel plates under a mixed-mode I+II loading. A crack image capturing system as a direct measuring method was used to measure the closure levels at a crack tip. The crack closure levels in the fluctuation and stable sections were increased with the increase of the mode mixture ratio. The mode mixture ratio independent fatigue crack propagation rates equation was calculated by considering mixed-mode crack closure levels. The equation was examined according to the application method of crack opening ratio. The fracture surface analysis by C-scan method was also performed in order to investigate the closure mechanism and propagation mode of crack under the mixed-mode I+II loading. The crack closure under the mixed mode I+II is confirmed as a surface roughness closure by the quantitative analysis of fracture surface using the proposed surface roughness parameter.

In highly stressed conditions, the excavation damage zone induced by stress redistribution and disturbance must be evaluated after tunnel excavation. Therefore, the investigation of stress-induced deformation and fracture in rock is indispensable. In this study, fracture and damage mechanisms of rock induced by the accumulation of microcracks were investigated by the moving point regression technique as well as acoustic emission measured during uniaxial compression tests. Especially, the modified procedures to determine damage thresholds more systematically were newly proposed, and successfully applied to rock. From experiments, crack initiation and track damage stress levels were estimated to be $33{\~}36\%$ and $84{\~}89\%$ of uniaxial compressive strength respectively, for both of Hwangdeung granite and Yeosan marble. However, the normalized crack closure stress level for Yeosan marble was much higher than for Hwangdeung granite. In addition, the largest proportion of total axial strain in Hwangdeung granite was attributable to elastic deformation and initial microcracking. However, the greatest part of axial deformation in Yeosan marble arose from initial crack closure and unstable cracking. Finally, it was seen that unstable cracking after the crack damage stress level played a key part in the lateral deformation in rocks under uniaxial compression.
