현재까지 SFCP 해석법은 기초단계에 있으며, 아직도 정립된 방법이 없는 것이 사실이다. 따라서, 이 분야에는 많은 개선을 필요로 하고 있다. 이와 같은 개선은 이론적인 연구뿐만이 아니라, 실험적인 연구가 바탕이 되어야 라며, 동시에SFCP에 영향을 주는 초기균열의 변동성, 하중의 변동성 등을 정확한 모델링 방법에 대한 연구가 병행되어야 한다. 그리고 더 나아가서 실제 구 조물에서 피로파괴에 영향을 주는 중요한 요소인 잔류응력, 부식 등의 고려하는 방법에 관한 연구가 수행 되어져야 할 것이다. 또한, 지금까지의 연구가 주로 구조부재에 하나의 균열이 존 재한다는 가정을 내포하고 있는데, 실구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 여러개의 균열이 동시에 존 재하는 경우에 대한 연구와 균열이 성장하면서 합체(coalescence)하는 경우에 대한 연구도 수행 되어야 한다. 이와 같은 연구가 꾸준히 진행되어 소기의 성과를 거둠으로써, 구조물의 피로파괴 확률을 정확하게 추정할 수 있을 것이며, 이에 따라 합리적인 설계가 가능해질 것이다.

본 논문에서는 일반유한요소법(Generalized Finite Element Method)를 이용하여 응력확대계수를 계산하는 방법을 소개한다. 기존의 유한요소법을 사용하여 응력확대계수를 계산하기위해서는 J-integral 방법 등을 이용한 후처리 과정이 필수적으로 요구된다. 뿐만 아니라 균열선단 근방에서의 응력을 기술하기 위해서는 세밀한 요소망(mesh)이 요구된다. 후처리 과정과 균열선단 근방에서의 요소망은 수치적 오류를 발생시키고 이는 정확한 응력확대계수를 얻는데 어려움을 준다. 일반유한요소법은 근사함수를 요소망의 영향 없이 추가해서 사용할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있지만, 활용성 측면에서 기존의 유한요소법보다 복잡하여 실용성이 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 일반유한요소법의 장점을 충분히 살려 균열선단근방에서는 응력을 모델링하여 근사함수로 사용하고 균열선단에서 거리가 먼 곳은 기존의 유한요소를 써서 계산을 하였다. 특별한 후처리 과정(Post processing) 없이 비교적 정확한 응력확대계수를 손쉽게 얻을 수 있다. 일반유한요소법을 이용한 제시된 방법론이 타당함을 수치 예제를 통하여 확인하였다.

This paper presents a hydraulic fracture propagation model to describe propagation more realistically. In propagating the hydraulic fractures, we have used two criteria: maximum tangential stress to determine the fracture initiation angle and whether a hydraulic fracture intersects a natural fracture. The model was validated for the parameters relevant to fracture propagation, such as initiation angle and crossing ability through natural fracture. In order to check whether a hydraulic fracture crosses a natural fracture, the model results on crossing state excellently matched with the experimental data. In the sensitivity analysis for direction of maximum horizontal stress, frictional coefficient of fracture interface, and natural fracture orientation, the results show that hydraulic fracture intersects natural fracture, and then, propagated suitably with theoretical results according to fracture interaction criterion. In comparison of this model against vertical fracture approach, it was ascertained that there are discrepancies in fracture connectivity and stimulated reservoir volume.

In this paper, computation results of reducible modeling, stress recovery and energy release rate were compared with the results of VABS, Virtual Crack Closure Technique. The result of stress recovery analysis for 1-D model including the stiffness matrix is compared with stress results of three-dimensional 3-D FEM. Energy release rate of composite beam with longitudinal cracks is calculated and compare verifications of numerical analysis results of 3-D FEM and VABS. The procedure of calculating energy release rate through dimensional reduction and stress recovery is intended to be efficient and be utilized in the life-cycle of high-altitude uav's wing, wind blades and tilt rotor blade.

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.

The modeling of uplift pressure within dam, on the foundation on which it was constructed, and on the interface between the dam and foundation is a critical aspect in the analysis of concrete gravity dams, i.e. crack stability in concrete dam can correctly be predicted when uplift pressures are accurately modelled. Current models consider a uniform uplift distribution, but recent experimental results show that it varies along the crack faces and the procedures for modeling uplift pressures are well established for the traditional hand-calculation methods, but this is not the case for finite element (FE) analysis. In large structures, such as dams, because of smaller size of the fracture process zone with respect to the structure size, limited errors should occur under the assumptions of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). In this paper, the fracture behaviour of concrete gravity dams mainly subjected to uplift Pressure at the crack face was studied. Triangular type, trapezoidal type and parabolic type distribution of the uplift pressure including uniform type were considered in case of evaluating stress intensity factor by surface integral method. The effects of body forces, overtopping pressures are also considered and a parametric study of gravity dams under the assumption of LEFM is performed.

Fracturing technique using fluid injection into the borehole is widely used technology in the industry for the geothermal heat, oil, and gas extraction. Dealing with fluid-driven natural fractures such as dike and vein indirectly, design technology would be improved by adapting their principles. In this paper, mechanical interaction between the segments is evaluated by modeling highly segmented and closely spaced fluid-driven natural fractures. The number of segments is 71 with 3,339 measured apertures in which the interaction is considerably predicted. To evaluate mechanical interaction, boundary collocation method is used and the net pressure is calculated by using least square method to fit measured apertures. As a result, in case that mechanical interaction is considered, two pressures as fitting parameters are sufficient to capture measured apertures.

지열에너지 개발의 기본적 개념은 지하 심부의 고온건조암체에 시추공을 이용한 수압파쇄를 실시하여 고온건조암체내에 인공파쇄대를 형성함으로써 유체의 유동회로를 구축하여 지열에너지의 회수를 도모하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 수압파쇄균열의 발전방향 조절문제와 관련하여, 초고압수 절삭장치를 이용, 수압파쇄공 내에 인공슬롯을 형성하여 수압파쇄를 실시함으로써 균열의 발전방향을 조사하였으며, 수압파쇄에 의한 파쇄대내로의 유체순환실험을 통해 지열수의 유동특성을 규명하였다. 이를 위해 모델에 종균열과 횡균열을 형성시키고 균열내에 주입되는 물의 주입률, 정상류압력, 흐름저항을 조사하고, 이 결과를 이용하여 전산모델링을 수행하였다. 인공절리면에 대한 투수시험에서는 10$0^{\circ}C$까지의 온도변화에 따라 투수계수가 증가하였으며, 봉압 증가에 따라 증가율이 현저히 감소하였다.

This paper presents an efficient modeling and dynamic analysis method for open cracked rotor bearing systems. An equivalent bending spring model is introduced to represent the structural weakening effect in the presence of cracks. The proposed modeling method is validated through a series of simulations and experiments. First, the proposed method Is rigorously compared with a commercial finite element code. Then, an experiment is performed to validate the proposed modeling method. Finally, a numerical example is introduced to demonstrate the possible application of the proposed method in the crack diagnosis for rotor systems.

Up to now, the existing crack growth modelling has used a mathematical approximation but an assumed function have a great influence on this method. Especially, crack growth behavior that shows very strong nonlinearity needed complicated function which has difficulty in setting parameter of it. The main characteristics of neural network modelling to engineering field are simple calculations and absence of assumed function. In this paper, after discussing learning and generalization of neural networks, we performed crack growth modelling on the basis of above learning algorithms. J'-da/dt relation predicted by neural networks shows that test condition with unlearned data is simulated well within estimated mean error(5%).
