In this paper, the effect of material properties on fracture behavior was studied using cohesive zone model and extended finite element method. The rectangular tensile specimen with a central inclined initial crack was modeled by plane stress elements. In the CZM modeling, cohesive elements were inserted between every bulk elements in the predicted crack propagation region before analysis, while in the XFEM the enrichment to the elements was added as needed during analysis. The crack propagation behavior was examined for brittle and ductile materials. For thin specimen configuration, wrinkle deformation was accounted for by geometrically nonlinear post-buckling analysis and the effect of wrinkling on the crack propagation was investigated.

In this paper, the computer simulations are carried out by using the peridynamic theory model with various conditions including quasi-static loads, dynamic loads and crack propagation, branching crack pattern and isotropic materials, orthotropic materials. Three examples, a plate with a hole under quasi-static loading, a plate with a pre-existing crack under dynamic loading and a lamina with a pre-existing crack under quasi-static loading are analyzed by computational simulations. In order to simulate the quasi-static load, an adaptive dynamic relaxation technique is used. In the orthotropic material analysis, a homogenization method is used considering the strain energy density ratio between the classical continuum mechanics and the peridynamic. As a result, crack propagation and branching cracks are observed successfully and the direction and initiation of the crack are also captured within the peridynamic modeling. In case of applying peridynamic used homogenization method to a relatively complicated orthotropic material, it is also verified by comparing with experimental results.

본 논문에서는 균열이 존재하는 구조부재에 충격이나 폭발하중이 가해진 경우 동적응력확대계수를 구하는 방법들은 논의하고 특히 코오스틱 실험법 및 수치적으로 코오스틱 곡선을 구하여 동적응력확대계수를 구하는 과정을 자세히 설명하였다. 폭발 및 충격에 의한 구조물의 파괴해석은 이와 같은 하중을 받는 압력용기, 빌딩, 초고속선, 해군 함정 등의 파괴강도설계 및 안전성 평가에 핵심기술로 대두되고 있으며 또한 우주항공산업, 고속전철, 암반역학 등의 여러 분야에서 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 따라서 앞으로도 균열진전 및 정지조건, 탄소성 동적파괴해석 및 재료의 충격거동 등에 대한 연구들이 계속되어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

일반적으로 콘크리트와 철근간의 경계면을 나타내는 유한요소법에는 균열의 부근에서 발생하는 부착열화 현상을 고려하지 않고 있다. 이것은 균열 부근에서 과도한 부착을 초래하고 , 국소 변형과 균열의 진전에도 영향을 준다. 본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 균열부근에서 일어나는 부착거동의 변화를 고려한 비선형 부착응력-미끄럼 모델을 제안하였다. 철근과 콘크리트간의 경계면에는 링크요소를 이용하였고, 링크의 특성은 철근을 가로지르는 균열의 상태에 따라 변하도록 조정하였다. 균열의 형성상태를 정량화하고, 부착거동을 두 포락선 1) 균열로부터 충분히 떨어진 위치에서의 부착상태를 모델링한 외연포락선, 2)횡균열면에 있어서의 부착상태를 모델링한 내연포락선의 사이에 변이시키기 위하여 비국소적 손상도 개념을 도입하였다. 이 방법의 유효성을 알아보기 위하여 편재하중을 받는 T형 교각의 실험 및 해석결과를 제시하였다. 제안된 모델의 결과를 실험결과와 비교하여 본 모델의 유용성을 검증하였다.

In this study, we investigated the effect of the indenter geometry on the crack characteristics by indentation cracking test and FEA. We conducted various cohesive finite element simulations based on the findings of Lee et al. (2012), who examined the effect of cohesive model parameters on crack size and formulated conditions for crack initiation and propagation. First, we verified the FE model through comparisons with experimental results that were obtained from Berkovich and Vickers indentations. We observed whether nonsymmetrical cracks formed beneath the surface during Berkovich indentation via FEA. Finally, we examined the relation between the crack size and the number of cracks. Based on this relation and the effect of the indenter angle on the crack size, we can predict from the crack size obtained with an indenter of one shape (such as Berkovich or Vickers) the crack size for an indenter of different shape.

An elast-biscoplastic finite element analysis is performed to investigate detailed growth behavior of creep cracks and the numerical results are compared with experimental results. The results of mesh translation method are compared with those of node release method. Load line displancement curve obtained from the crack growth analysis by mesh translation shows the improved results than that obtained from the crack growth by node release method when the secondary creep rate is only used as creep material property. The results of accounting for primary creep rate and instantaneous plasticity shows a good agreement with the experimental result.

In this paper, computational evaluation method for fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR) based on material viscoplastic-damage model is proposed. Viscoplastic-damage model expressing material constitutive behavior of 7% nickel steel is introduced and is implemented into commercial finite element analysis(FEA) code, ABAQUS, as a user defined material subroutine(UMAT) for application in the FEA environments. Verification of developed UMAT and material parameters of material model are carried out by uniaxial tensile test simulations of 7% nickel steel. Moreover, jump-in-cycles procedure and rearrangement of critical damage are employed and also implemented to the ABAQUS UMAT for fatigue damage analysis. Typical FCGR test results such as relationship between crack length and number of cycles and relationship between da/dN and ${\Delta}K$ could be obtained from FCGR test simulation using developed UMAT and these results are compared with experimental results in order to verify of proposed computational method.

The integrity evaluation of pipes in nuclear power plant are essential for the safety of reactor vessel, and integrity must be assured when flaws are found. Accurate stress intensity analyses and crack growth rate data of surface-cracked components are needed for reliable prediction of their fatigue life and fracture strengths. Fatigue design and life assessment are the essential technologies to design the structures such as pipe, industrial plant equipment and so on. The effect of crack spacing on stress intensity factor K values was studied using three-dimensional finite element method (FEM). For the case of cylinder under internal pressure, a significant increase in K values observed at the deepest point of the surface crack. Also, this paper describes the fatigue analysis for cracked structures submitted to bending loads.

항공기 운항 중에 손상된 부품의 교환이나 수리는 항공기 운항 시 안전 유지와 고가의 항공기 수명연장을 위하여 필수적이다. 여러 가지 손상이나 고장 중에서 균열은 기계적 체결요소(리벳, 볼트 등)나 패칭에 의하여 효과적으로 보수될 수 있다. 항공기 동체 보수 시 접착제 접합을 사용한 복합재료 패칭은 하부구조에 손상이 없이 균열진전을 줄일 수 있고 구멍의 생성으로 인한 응력 집중을 제거할 수 있으며 접합된 면을 외부로부터 차단시켜 부식을 방지하는 효과가 있어 많이 사용된다 특히 고강도 복합재료와 접착제의 개발로 인하여 손상된 구조의 보수를 위한 복합재료 패칭의 사용은 더욱 증가되고 있다.(중략)

해수 중에 있는 구조용강에 음극방식을 실시했을 때의 피로균열진전 특성을 공기 중에서와 비교 하면서 정리하였으며 또한 몇 가지 영향인자들의 역할에 대해서도 기술하였다. 그러나, 이러한 특성들은 아직까지 그 정확한 메커니즘이 규명되지 못하고 있으며, 특히 균열선단에서의 소성 거동이 부식분위기나 수소분위기에서 어떻게 변화하는가 하는 문제에 대해서는 앞으로도 많은 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 응력조건과 부식조건이 동시에 적용될 때, 재료의 거동을 직접 적으로 해석하기 어려운 경우가 많으며, 따라서 관련되는 많은 영향인자들의 역할에 대한 상세한 정보들이 요구되고 있으며, 또한 관련 정보들을 유기적으로 결합시키는 이론적인 근거를 마련 해야 할 필요가 있다.
