Recently, many studies focus on mixed-mode fatigue-fracture characteristics of characteristics of materials. In order to reveal crack initiation and propagation mechanisms in combined -mode fatigue. This paper investigates the initiation and propagation behavior of the fatigue crack of the STS304 specimens under mixed mode loading conditions. moreover crack arrest and branch phenomena were analyzed with respect to the change do the angle of inclined loading. The relationship between the angle of inclined loading and the angle of branched crack was studied. A greate number of cycles are necessary to initiate a new crack from the initial crack. The direction of the new crack propagation is determined by MTS theory.

This paper provides two types of engineering J estimation equations for cylinders with finite internal axial surface cracks under internal pressure. The first type is the so-called GE/EPRI type J estimation equation based on Ramberg-Osgood materials. Based on detailed 3-D FE results the GE/EPRI-type J estimation equation along the crack front is proposed and validated for Ramberg-Osgood materials. For more general application, the developed GE/EPRI-type solutions are then re-formulated based on the reference stress concept. The proposed reference stress based J estimation equation has good agreement between the FE results and the proposed reference stress based J estimation provides confidence in the use of the proposed method for elastic-plastic fracture mechanics of pressurised piping

A new method to estimate the elastic-plastic J-integral and the crack tip opening displacement (COD) for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes under tension and under bending is proposed for Leak-Before-Break (LBB) analysis. Being based on the reference stress method with further modifications, the proposed method is simple to use and easy to be generalised in practice. Comparison of the CODs, predicted using the proposed method with published pipe test data show overall excellent agreement.

In the present study, complex leakage probabilities of nuclear pipes due to fatigue and stress corrosion cracking are evaluated by using the PINTIN(Piping INTegrity INner flaws) that is developed based on the existing PRAISE(Piping Reliability Analysis Including Seismic Events) program. With regard to the aging and crack instability, small leak and big leak probabilities are calculated for several pipes in a reactor coolant system of domestic nuclear plant. Moreover, sensitivity analysis is also performed to find out the effect of parameters for the leakage of pipes, which shows the coolant temperature is the most influencing parameter.

본 논문에서는 원자력발전소 1차 계통의 스테인리스강 저합금강 이종금속용접부 및 스테인리스강 동종용접부의 잔류응력을 평가하고 스테인리스강 용접부의 응력부식균열 민감성에 대해 고찰하였다. 노즐 안전단의 이종금속용접부 및 안전단 배관의 동종용접부 제작 및 소재가공에 의행 생성되는 잔류응력을 예측하기 위해 열 탄소성 유한요소법 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 용접공정과 함께 표면의 잔류응력에 기여하는 절삭 및 연삭가공과 소재의 담금질 공정을 열 탄소성적으로 모사하였다. 전산해석 결과, 스테인리스주강의 담금질 잔류응력은 무시할 수 없는 상당한 크기이므로 배관 용접잔류응력 평가 시 소재의 담금질 효과를 고려해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 이종금속 용접과 동종금속 용접공정이 보수용접 없이 정상적인 절차(내면에서 외면으로 적층)로 완성된다면, 냉각재 환경에 노출되는 용접부 내면의 잔류응력은 재료의 응력부식균열 민감성에 영향을 주지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 안전단 배관 동종용접부의 연삭가공에 의해 내면의 잔류응력이 크게 상승하는 것으로 예측되었으므로, 내면의 연삭가공 이후 표면잔류응력 완화처리(예, 버핑)가 필요하다.

This paper describes an analysis of the stress intensity factor (SIF) of the presented cracks in LNG piping. The stress analysis used the Finite Element Method. The stress Intensity factor calculated Raju & Newmann equation and ASME Section XI method. The cracks in the flanges are found to be influenced by temperature, but the cracks of the piping are found not to be influenced by temperature. If the cracks shape in the flanges and the cracks shape of the piping are same each other, the cracks in the flange will be dangerous more than the cracks of the piping.

주조 스테인레스강으로 제작된 원자로 냉각재배관은 고온에서 장기간 운전됨에 따라 열취화의 영향을 받을 수 있다. 장기간의 열취화는 재료의 연성 및 파괴인성을 저하시킬 수 있으며, 배관에 균열이 존재하는 경우 건전성을 위협할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 원전수명연장을 위한 타당성 검토 측면에서 Chopra의 방법 등을 이용한 원자로 냉각재배관의 열취화 평가 및 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 이를 통해 원자로 냉각재배관의 열취화 수준을 정량화하였고, 건전성 평가에 활용될 수 있는 J$_{IC}$ 값을 예측하였으며, 열취화에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자를 도출하였다.

This paper provides engineering J-integral and crack opening displacement (COD) estimation equations for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes under internal pressure and under combined internal pressure and bending. Based on selected 3-D finite element calculations for the circumferential through-wall cracked pipes under internal pressure using the idealized power law materials, the elastic and plastic influence functions for fully plastic J-integral and COD solutions are found as a function of the normalized crack length and the mean radius-to-thickness ratio. These developed GE/EPRI-type solutions are then re-formulated based on the enhanced reference stress method. Such re-formulation not only provides simpler equations for J-integral and COD estimations, but also can be easily extended to combined internal pressure and bending. The proposed equations are compared with elastic-plastic finite element results using actual stress-strain data, which shows overall excellent agreement.

The present paper provides plastic limit load solutions of axial and circumferential through-wall cracked pipes based on detailed three-dimensional (3-D) finite element (FE) limit analysis using elastic-perfectly-plastic behavior. As a loading condition, axial tension, global bending moment, internal pressure, combined tension and bending and combined internal pressure and bending are considered for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes, while only internal pressure is considered for axial through-wall cracked pipes. Especially, more emphasis is given for through-wall cracked pipes subject to combined loading. Comparisons with existing solutions show a large discrepancy in short through-wall crack (both axial and circumferential) for internal pressure. In the case of combined loading, the FE limit analyses results show thickness effect on limit load solutions. Furthermore, the plastic limit load solution for circumferential through-wall cracked pipes under bending is applied to derive plastic $\eta\;and\;{\gamma}$-factor of testing circumferential through-wall cracked pipes to estimate fracture toughness. Being based on detailed 3-D FE limit analysis, the present solutions are believed to be meaningful fur structural integrity assessment of through-wall cracked pipes.

This paper compares engineering estimation schemes of C＊ and creep COD for circumferential and axial through-wall cracked pipes at elevated temperatures with detailed 3-D elastic-creep finite element results. Engineering estimation schemes included the GE/EPRI method, the reference stress method where reference stress is defined based on the plastic limit load and the enhanced reference stress method where the reference stress is defined based on the optimized reference load. Systematic investigations are made not only on the effect of creep-deformation behaviour on C＊ and creep COD, but also on effects of the crack location, the pipe geometry, the crack length and the loading mode. Comparison of the FE results with engineering estimations provides that for idealized power law creep, estimated C＊ and COD rate results from the GE/EPRI method agree best with FE results. For general creep-deformation laws where either primary or tertiary creep is important and thus the GE/EPRI method is hard to apply, on the other hand, the enhanced reference stress method provides more accurate and robust estimations for C* and COD rate than the reference stress method.
