The damage tolerance analysis is required to guarantee the structural safety and the reliability for aircraft components. The damage tolerance method, which evaluate the life considering the initial crack, considers a fatigue design model of the aircraft main structure. The fatigue crack growth life should be calculated in damage tolerance analysis and the inspection time to define the replacement cycle. In this paper, the damage tolerance analysis is performed for a turbine wheel which has complex geometry. The equation of the stress intensity factor for complex geometry is hard to know, so that they are usually processed by finite element analysis which takes long time. To solve this problem, the stress intensity factors at specified crack are obtained by the FEA and the crack growth life is evaluated using the surrogate model which is generated by the regression analysis of the FEA data. From the results, the efficiency of the crack growth life calculation and the damage tolerance analysis could be increased by taking the surrogate model.

In Seoul, structural deterioration is severe in the private masonry buildings which have been built since 1906s. But most of these structures remain without any repair works. As a result, the rate of deterioration is getting faster and these dangerous structures may cause hazardous circumstances to the adjacent structures and neighborhood. The purpose of this study is to investigate the actual conditions of wall cracks among the defect types which occur in private masonry buildings and to analyze the correlation between safety grades and wall cracks for offering the fundamental data. Using these date we can establish basic criteria for safety grades of structures and improve the quality of masonry buildings. The result of this study indicate that there are high correlations between safety grades and the width of crack but much less so with the length. Furthermore, with regard to crack patterns, vertical cracks much more negatively effected the safety grades.

최근 전세계적으로 저탄소, 녹색성장으로 인하여 원자력발전이 주목받고 있다. 또한 에너지의 고효율로 인한 발전소의 설비가 대형화가 됨에 따라 발전소의 수명평가와 건전성평가가 중요해지고 있다. 일반적으로 구조물 내에 존재하는 균열의 크기와 형상을 파악하여 피로균열전파속도를 평가함으로써 건전성평가를 확인하고 있다. 그리고 고온, 고압에서의 피로균열전파속도는직류전위차 (Direct Current Potential Drop : DCPD)법을 사용하고 있다. DCPD법은 균열의 정밀한 측정방법으로써 측정시 오차가 발생하기 때문에 ASTM에서 제시된 incremental polynomial 법을 권고하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 피로균열전파전파속도의통계적처리를 통해서 합리적인 곡선을 구하여 건전성평가에 활용하고자 한다. 실험에 사용된 시편은 두께 5mm, 폭 25.4mm CT시편을 사용하였으며, 1mm의 예비균열을 주었다. 그리고 실험온도는 상온에서 실시 하였으며, 주파수는 10Hz를 주었다. 그리고 DCPD 측정을 위해 5A의 전류를 주었으며, 이때 측정된 전압값을 ASTM에 제시된 관계식에넣어 균열길이로 환산하였으며, 데이터처리는 ASTM에 제시된 incremental polynomial법을 기본적으로 사용하였다. 또한 ASTM에 제시된 2n+1을 이용하여 데이터의 수 n을 1~7 까지 변화를 주어 3~15 point 까지 데이터를 처리하여곡선을 제시하였다. 분석결과 $R^2$값이 1을 기준으로 했을 때 3~7 point 까지는큰 차이를 보이지 않았지만 9-point 이후부터는 $R^2$ 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 적용된 데이터의수에 따라 피로군열전파속도 곡선에서 측정된 Paris law의 n값과 C 값은 큰차이를 보이지 않았다.

In this research, the performance of surface covering technique using a white-colored bubble sheet on reducing the cracking due to the plastic, and drying shrinkages for high rise building construction were evaluated by comparing the exposed surface without any surface treatment. From the results of the experiment conducted during fall season, desired results of decreased numbers, length, maximum width, and area of cracking were obtained without a significant difference on heat of hydration and cumulative temperature. Therefore, it is considered that the surface covering technique using bubble sheet is an appropriate method for preventing plastic and drying shrinkage cracking at fall season concrete construction.

현장 균열망의 연결성 및 이에 따른 수리지질학적 특성을 규명하기 위하여, 기존의 통상적인 조사 기법을 한 지역에 집적하여 그 결과에 대한 통합해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 조사 방법은 양수시험, 물리검층, 다중심도 수리화학 분석, 전기비저항 토모그래피, 시추 코어 검층 등의 기련 특성 조사와, 추적자 시험, 다중 심도 수직 유향유속 시험 등 구간별 특성 조사 등이다. 이러한 조사 결과 본 조사 지역 내 균열의 전반적인 분포 특성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각 균열의 수리적 특성에 대한 기본적 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 추적자 시험과 유향유속 시험 결과를 통해 각 관정간의 균열을 통한 연결성에 대한 중요한 정보를 도출할 수 있었다. 이러한 성과는 추후 percolation, connectivity 등 모델 개념의 현장화를 위한 연구의 선행 연구로서 그 의미를 자리매김 할 수 있을 것이다.

The characteristics of fatigue crack growth subject to out-of-plane bending fatigue are studied in terms of crack opening behavior by using pre-cracked smooth specimens. Crack opening stress is measured by an elastic compliance method which may precisely and continuously provide many date using strain gages during experiment. The results of the short crack and the long crack arranged by crack closure concept show that the effective stress gange ratio of short crack is grester than that of long crack, and ano- malous growth behavior of short crack may be elucidated by the variation of crack opening stress. When the variation of fatigue crack growth rate is arranged versus effective stress intensity factor range. Iinear relation is held also for the short crack. It shows that growth behavior of short crack can be quantitatively represent- ed by the fracture mechanics parameter using effective stress intensity factor range.

In this study, a shaking table test was performed for the evaluation of the failure capacity of an anchor foundation system in the case of an aged condition. For the shaking table test, three kinds of specimens were manufactured as follows: 1) a non-damaged anchor; 2) a specimen with cracks running through the anchor; and 3) a specimen with cracks along the expected corn-shape fracture away from the anchor. A dynamic characteristic was determined through a measurement of the frequency response function (FRF), and the seismic capacity was evaluated by using a shaking table test. Failure capacities were calculated using an acceleration response and it was compared with the anchor design code.

This paper presents key findings obtained from the numerical experiment investigating into the use of the cylindrical cavity for rock splitting operations. The stress and strain path analyses were carried out in order to provide a better insight into the crack formation. The principal stress analysis carried out along the crack line using the results obtained from these numerical analyses allowed the failure of the brittle material and the crack propagation to be investigated. This paper also suggested possible reasons for the change in crack direction observed during the rock splitting operations using the results obtained.

We conducted hydraulic fracturing experiments on cement samples to investigate the dependency of fracture propagation on the viscosity of injection fluid and the in situ stress state. Ten cubic samples (20 cm side length) were produced using cement that was cured in water for more than one month. Samples were placed in a tri-axial compression apparatus with three independent principal stresses. An injection hole was drilled and the sample was hydraulically fractured under a constant injection rate. We measured injection pressures and acoustic emissions (AE) during the experiments, and investigated the fracture patterns produced by hydraulic fracturing. Breakdown pressures increased exponentially with increasing viscosity of the injection fluid. Fracture patterns were dependent on differential stress (i.e., the difference between the major and minor principal stresses). At low differential stress, multiple fractures oriented sub-parallel to the major principal stress axis propagated from the injection hole, and in some samples the fracture orientation changed during propagation. However, at high differential stress, a single fracture propagated parallel to the major principal stress axis. AE results show similar patterns. At low differential stress, AE source locations were more widespread than at high differential stress, consistent with the fracture pattern results. Our study suggests that hydraulic fracturing during shale gas extraction should be performed parallel to the orientation of minimum differential stress.
