이방성 재료에서 균열의 성장을 예측하는 것은 실제 구조물의 안전성을 정확하게 해석하기 위한 중요한 문제이다. 이방성 재료 내에서의 균열의 거동은 등방성 재료의 경우와는 다르기 때문에 이방성 재료 내의 균열 해석 문제가 중요한 관심을 끌게 되었다. 비등방성 재료에 대한 지금까지의 연구는 대부분 직선균열의 해석, 직선균열의 초기 전파 각도에 대한 해석에 대하여 이루어져 왔고 곡선 균열에 대한 연구［1-4］는 많이 이루어지지 않았다.(중략)

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of crack orientation on fatigue crack growth behavior in friction stir welded (FSWed) Al 7075-T651. Fatigue crack growth testing was conducted on compact tension (CT) specimens machined from the friction stir welds and the base metal under constant stress intensity factor range control. Tests were performed with the crack propagating nominally perpendicular to the weld line (termed the TL specimen) and the crack propagating in a parallel direction of the weld line (termed the LT specimen), and with three different constant stress intensity factor ranges. Both these specimen orientations were found to have a considerable effect on the fatigue crack growth behavior. Paris's law was adopted for the analysis of experimental results; the exponent m of the WM-LT specimen was determined to be 3.56, which was the largest value in this experimental conditions.

This study aims to investigate the spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate for the friction stir welded (FSWed) 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints. Our previous fatigue crack growth test data are adopted in this investigation. To clearly understand the spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate, fatigue crack growth tests were conducted under constant stress intensity factor range (SIFR) control testing. The experimental data were analyzed for two different materials-base metal (BM) and weld metal (WM)-to investigate the effects of spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth rate and material properties, the friction stir welded (FSWed) 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints, namely weld metal (WM) and base metal (BM). The results showed that the variability, as evaluated by Weibull statistical analysis, of the WM is higher than that of the BM.

The mechanical behavior ot concrete is strongly influenced by various scenarios of crack initiation and crack propagation. Recently. the study of the interface fracture and cracking in interfacial regions is emerged as an important field, in the context of the developement of high performance concrete composites. The crack path criterion for elastically homogeneous materials is not valid when the crack advances at an interface because. in this case, the consideration of the relative magnitudes of the fracture toughnesses between the constituent materials and the interface are involved. In this paper, a numerical method is presented to obtain the values of two interfacial fracture parameters such as the energy release rate and the phase angle at the tip of an existing interface crack. Criteria based on energy release rate concepts are suggested for the prediction of crack growth at the interfaces and an hybrid experimental-numerical study is presented on the two-phase beam composite models containing interface cracks to investigate the cracking scenarios in interfacial regions. In general, good agreement between the experimental results and the prediction from the criteria is obtained.

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.

Crack-controlled method which utilizes the dynamic energy such as explosives and propellent gases have been applied to the development of mineral resource and oil and civil engineering. It is necessary to consider the fracture processes associated with the material properties and external forces to control crack propagation using borehole pressure. To investigate the influence of the applied borehole pressure waveform on the crack propagation in rock masses having different material properties, a no-free surface model was used, consisting of a borehole in rock with a continuous boundary. Loading rates ranging from 1 to 100MPa/${\mu}s$ with different rock mass properties was employed to investigate the loading rate dependency of fracture patterns in the rock mass.

Rock masses are usually discontinuous in nature due to various geological processes and contain rock joints and bridges. Crack propagation and coalescence processes in rock bridge mainly cause rock failures in slopes, foundations, and tunnels. In this study, we focused on the crack initiation, propagation and coalescence process of rock materials containing two pre-existing open cracks arranged in different geometries. Specimens of 120${\times}$60${\times}$25 mm in size, which were made of Yeoman Marble, were prepared. In the specimens, two artificial cracks were cut with pre-existing crack angle ${\alpha}$, bridge angle ${\beta}$, pre-existing crack length 2c and bridge length 2b. Wing crack initiation stress, wing crack propagation angle, and crack coalescence stress were measured and crack initiation, propagation and coalescence processes were observed during uniaxial compression. Crack coalescence types were classified and analytical study using Ashby and Hallam model (1986) was performed to be compared with the experimental results.

For the steel structures those are used in harsh sea environments, corrosion fatigue is a challenging issue in connection with design life. In this research, in order to investigate the influence of cathodic overprotection on the corrosion fatigue crack propagation behavior, corrosion fatigue crack propagation test under the condition of -950mV vs SCE was conducted by using of high tensile TMCP steel plate and the relationships between da/dN-${\Delta}K$ were obtained. At this test, when ${\Delta}K$ is low, the crack propagation rates were accelerated compared to those of seawater condition, however, when ${\Delta}K$ is high, the crack propagation rates were lower than those of seawater condition. As the cause for the acceleration and deceleration of corrosion fatigue crack propagation rates under the condition of cathodic overprotection, the role of hydrogen and calcareous deposits are discussed.

A local remeshing algorithm using Delaunay property is developed for the analysis on the phenomenon of quasi-static crack propagation, which is a typical problem of accompanying constantly varying geometry. The algorithm performs both remeshing and refinement. The use of M-integral is demonstrated to simulate crack propagation under mixed mode with the edge spalling problem.

Rock masses are usually discontinuous in nature, as a result of various geological processes they have underdone and they contain rock joints and bridges. Crack propagation and coalescence processes mainly cause rock failures in tunnels. In this study, we focused on the crack initiation, propagation and coalescence process of rock materials containing two pre-existing open cracks arranged in different geometries. During uniaxial compression, wing crack initiation stress, wing crack propagation angle, and crack coalescence stress of Diastone gypsum and Yeosan Marble specimens were examined. And crack initiation, propagation, and coalescence processes were observed. Shear, tensile and mixed (shear+tensile) types of crack coalescence occurred. To compare the experimental results with Ashby & Hallam model, crack coalescence stress was normalized and it generally agreed with the experimental results.
