In this paper, the modified singular fracture process zone (S-FPZ) model is proposed to consider variation of a fracture criterion for continuous crack propagation in concrete. The fracture properties of the proposed fracture model are strain energy release rate at a micro-crack tip and crack closure stress (CCS) versus crack opening displacement (COD) relationship in the FPZ. The proposed model can simulate the estimated fracture energy of experimental results. The analysis results of the experimental data shows that specimen geometry and loading condition did not affect the CCS-COD relation. But the strain energy release rate is a function of not only specimen geometry but also crack extension. Until 25 mm crack extension, the strain energy release rate is a constant minimum value, and then it increased linearly to the maximum value. The maximum fracture criterion occurred at the peak load for an large size specimen. The fracture criterion remains the maximum value after the peak load. The variation of the fracture criterion is caused by micro-cracking and micro-crack localizing. The fracture criterion of strain energy release rate can simply be the size effect of concrete fracture, and it can be used to quantify the micro-tracking and micro-crack localizing behaviors of concrete.

Acoustic emission (AE) and Microseimsic (MS) activities are law-energy seismic events associated with a sudden inelastic deformation such as the sudden movement of existing fractures, the generation of new fractures or the propagation of fractures. These events rapidly increase before major failure and happen within a given rock volume and radiate detectable seismic waves. The main difference between AE and MS signals is that the seismic motion frequencies of AE signals are higher than those of MS signals. As the failure of geotechnical structures usually happens as a high velocity and small displacement, it is nat easy ta determine the precursor and initiation stress level of failure in displacement detection method. To overcame this problem, AE/MS techniques far detection of structure failure and damage have recently adapt in civil engineering. This study deal with the basic theory of AE/MS and state of arts in monitoring technique using AE/MS.

In the working stress conditions, the strain level in a soil mass experienced by existing structures and during construction is less than about 0.1-1%. In order to analyse the deformational behavior accurately, the in-situ testing technique which provides the reliable deformational characteristics at small strains, needs to be developed. The purpose of this paper is to measure the small-strain shear modulus of soils by using pressuremeter test(PMT). PMT is a unique method for assessing directly the in-situ shear modulus of soils with strain amplitude. For the accurate small strain measurements without initial disturbance effect, the unloading-reloading cycle was used and the measured modulus was corrected in view of the relevant stress and strain levels around the PMT probe during testing. Not only in the calibration chamber but in the field, PMT tests were performed on the cohesionless soils. The variation in shear modulus with strain amplitude ranging from 10-2% to 0.5% was reliably determined by PMT PMT results were also compared with other in-situ and laboratory test results. Moduli obtained from different testing techniques matched very well if the effect of strain amplitude was considered in the com pall son.

The recovery and recrystallization behavior of cold-rolled Zr-based alloys during isothermal annealing at temperatures from $575^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$ was studied by thermoelectric power and Vickers microhardness measurement. The recovery and recrystallization resulted in the increase of TEP doe to the extinction of lattice defect, vacancy, dislocation and stacking fault during isothermal annealing after cold- rolling. The completion of recrystallization could be determined much clearly by TEP behavior than by microhardness change in Zr-based alloys. Especially, the recovery and recrystallization were classified separately by TEP behavior in Zr-0.4Nb-xSn alloys. From the analysis of TEP behavior and microhardness, the addition of Sn caused to form the interaction between stain field and dislocation, which resulted in the delay of recovery in Zr-based alloys. The precipitation due the addition of Nb suppressed the grain growth after recrystallization effectively in Zr-based alloys.

Rigid-soft particle mixtures, which consist of sand and rubber, are investigated for the understanding of the stress-deformation and elastic moduli. Specimens are prepared with various size ratio sr between sand and rubber particles, and different volumetric sand fraction sf. Small strain shear waves are measured under $K_o$-loading condition incorporated with the stress-deformation test by using oedometer cell with bender elements. The stress-deformation and small strain shear wave characteristics of rigid-soft particle mixtures show the transition from a rigid particle behavior regime to a soft particle behavior regime under fixed size ratio. A sudden rise of $\Lambda$ factor and the maximum value of the $\zeta$ exponent in $G_{max}=\;{\Lambda}({\sigma}'_{o}/kPa)^{\zeta}$ are observed at $sf\;{\approx}\;0.4{\sim}0.6$ regardless of the size ratio sf. Transition mixture shows high sensitivity to confining stress. The volume fraction for the minimum porosity may depend on the applied stress level in the rigid-soft particle mixtures because the soft rubber particles easily distort under load. In this experimental study, the size ratio and volumetric sand fraction are the important factors which determine the behavior of rigid and soft particle mixtures.

본 고에서는 균질화법의 정식화를 이용하여 복합재료의 거시적 균질화된 재료상수를 구하고, 이 재료상수를 이용하여 거시구조물의 변형과 응력을 구하고, 이로부터 다시 미시구조의 응력분포와 변형도를 구하는 방법을 기술하였다. 주기성을 가정한 균질화법은 복합재료 구조물의 물성평가와 거동예측에 대한 매우 적절한 수치해석 방법이다. 균질화법은 이러한 선형변형의 문제뿐만 아니라, 내압을 존재하는 빈공간 소재의 물성, 기지재료와 강화재료 계면의 미끄러짐 등으로 인한 미세 파손현상 등의 예측이 가능하다. 그외에도 탄소성 대변형 거동 이론과 균질화법을 함께 적용하여, squeeze casting에서 발생하기 쉬운 계면분리나 파단 등의 미소결함과 같은 2차 성형성의 예측도 가능하다.

전주기술은 전기도금을 이용하여 몰드 위에 도금한 후 도금층만을 분리하여 부품을 만들거나 정밀한 형상의 표면을 복제하려는 금속 성형공정의 하나이다. 최근 고분자소재용 미소금형 제조에 전주기실의 응용이 확대되면서 니켈뿐만 아니라 니켈합금전주에까지 관심이 고조되고 있으며 니켈합금전주는 합금피막의 요구조건에 따라 Co, Fe, Mn, W, P 등 다양한 원소를 합금원소로 선택가능하다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 국내 전주기술은 설파민산 니켈을 중심으로 활발히 진행되어 왔으나, 니켈합금 전주에 대한 연구는 미비한 상태다. 이는 전주 기술이 전류밀도, 도금액 조성, pH, 온도 교반조건 등과 관련된 복합기술로서 최적의 피막 제조를 위해서는 도금액 개발과 함께 적잘한 전주장비 개발이 병행되어야 하는 복잡한 작업이기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 몰드금형 제작용 전주니켈도금액을 제작하기 위해 고경도, 저응력의 이원계 NiX 도금액을 제조에 대한 내용을 다루었다.

In order to find a residual stress in the micro-machined beam, first natural frequency of the beam that has the residual stress inside is analyzed using the Rayleigh's energy method. Micro gold electroplated structure is fabricated by surface micro-machining process. The made structure is clamped-clamped beam and its 1st natural frequency is measured by resonance method. For the better estimation of the residual stress, an equivalent length of micro-machined beam to ideal beam is calculated by FEM. The residual stress is estimated from the equivalent length and the measured natural frequency.
