Applicability of $T_{\delta}$ proposed by Shin et al as an instability parameter for ductile material is investigated, Both general fracture test and instability fracture test are performed using compact tension specimens of structural alloy steel(SCM4), The values of ( $T_{\delta}$)$_{app}$(applied tearing modules) estimated from the real load vs. crack growth curve measured from experiments are compared with those estimated from the limit load vs. crack growth curve. The results are:(1) the $T_{\delta}$ parameter may be used as a crack instability parameter:(2) the use of ( $T_{\delta}$)$_{app}$ estimated from the load-crack growth curve, proposed in this study is reasonably justified.ified.d.

An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the static shear strength of stirrup-reinforced cast-in anchors. The test parameters considered herein are an existence of front bearing bar and concrete crack. M36 anchor was used with an edge distance of 180mm. HD-10 bars were used for all reinforcing bars and the stirrups were placed with 100mm spacing. The shear resistance increased by 16% when the front bearing bar was installed. Meanwhile, the resistance reduced only 5% in the cracked concrete compared with the uncracked concrete. The test results showed that ACI 318 and ETAG 001 specifications could estimate the shear strength of stirrup-reinforced anchors conservatively and a rational method was proposed. A consideration on the fracture strength of stirrup-reinforced anchor is also given.

It is difficult to obtain accurate fracture toughness values using three point bending test(TPB) proposed by RILEM committees because the shape of load-deflection curve is irregular and final crack propagation occurs after some slow stable cracking. However, fracture toughness is easily obtained from crack initiation load in the disk test. In this paper, the fracture properties of high strength concrete disks with center-crack was investigated. For this purpose, the experimental results were compared with the results by finite element analysis(FEA). And the experimental fracture locus was compared with theoretical fracture locus. Also, the results of fracture properties for the degree of concrete strength are presented. It is concluded from this study that results from FEA with maximum stress theory were compared well with the results from experiment. And the degree of concrete strength was contributed to the crack initiation load and fracture toughness, but was not contributed to the failure angle. Also, The discrepancy of fracture locus between the maximum stress theory and the experiment for concrete is considered to depend upon a large energy requirement for inducing the mixed-mode and sliding mode fractures.

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 is to establish a standardization of injection system by inorganic material for crack repair of tunnel concrete structures. For this various surveys and experiments were carried out as followed. The first we surveyed capability of injection and crack pattern of concrete structures in site. and second we analyzed the relationship between crack width and volume of injection, and decided pressure and volume of injection. Finally we evaluated the relationship between crack width and volume of injection with kind of concrete structures, and between required time for injection and crack width with thickness of structure. From these surveys and experiments, we cleared the relationship between crack patterns and injection technologies such as volume, pressure of injection and required time for injection with kind of structure.

It is very important to verify the seismic performance and stability of the power plant fixture in the domestic power plant, because earthquakes have increased in frequency around the world which resulted in the frequent occurrence of power plant damage caused by the failure of electric power facilities. In this study, through the on-site inspection of power plant fixation unit installed in domestic power plants, we carried out structural performance evaluation of the fixation unit anchor bolts installed on the concrete slabs. The field survey showed M12 J hook anchor bolts were used. Anchor bolt pullout and shear performance evaluation were performed based on ASTM E 488-96 standard. Moreover, artificial crack with the width of 0.5 mm was applied during the experiment based on ATM355.4 and ETAG 001. The comparison of M12 J hook anchor bolt pullout and shear test result to design value required in domestic and international design standard, show a satisfactory result. M12 J hook anchor pullout and shear performance was found to be about 35% and 7%, respectively, higher than the required design value.

Recently, as the demand for urban underground space increases, urban tunnel planning is actively progressing. In particular, the application of the roadheader excavation method, which has favorable applicability to urban tunnel, is increasing. However, it is known that the roadheader excavation method has a limitation in that excavation efficiency for high strength rock with a Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) of 100 MPa or more is lowered. In this study, The pre-cracked method was presented as a method to improve the excavation efficiency of roadheader for high strength rock and its applicability was evaluated. The net cutting rate was evaluated using the Bilgin prediction formula, which can calculate the net cutting rate by considering the UCS and RQD (Rock Quality Designation). It was found that the net cutting rate increased as the RQD decreased under the rock condition with the same UCS. This is judged to increase the excavation efficiency of the roadheader in the jointed high strength rock. Additionally, the field applicability of the pre-cracked method for high strength rock was verified through field tests. It was confirmed that the crack zone was formed around the charging hole, and it is considered that the pre-cracked method can be applied to the high strength rock.

It often occurs in J-R testing that some initial crack extension (.DELTA.a) data points have anomalous negative values. The reason for the apparent negative crack growth is due to the analysis method. The phenomenon as a possible source of error in determining $J_{IC}$ or J-R curve from partial unloading compliance experiments may be eliminated by the compliance correction equation or the offset technique. In this study, the correction methods are suggested and examined by the measurement of the actual crack length and $J_{JC}$ analysis.

In the present study, crack initiation criteria, static failure and tensile mode fatigue behavior for a rail steel are evaluated to assure the railway vehicle's safety. The transverse fissure, which is the most critical damage in the rail, is initiated by the maximum shear stress and its location is subsurface. In addition, the possibility of transition from the shear mode to the mixed mode increases with increasing the length of subsurface crack. Because of the brittleness by the welding, the fracture toughness of the welded part is lower than of the base metal. For low ${\Delta}K$, the stage II fatigue crack growth rates of the welded part is slower than of the base metal but, for high ${\Delta}K$, this different behavior for fatigue crack growth rate is nearly diminished. These trends are more remarkable for low stress ratio, R=0.1. It is believed that this behavior is caused by the change of the microstructure which that of the welded part is coarser than of base metal.
