Diamonds have been widely employed as polishing media for precise machining and noble substrates for microelectronics. The recent development of the split sphere press has led to the enhancement of low quality natural diamonds. Synthesized and treated diamonds are sometimes traded deceptively as high quality natural diamonds because it is hard to distinguish among these diamonds with conventional gemological characterization method. Therefore, we need to develop a new identification method that is cheap, fast, and non-destructive. We proposed using a new method of micro-Raman spectroscopy for checking the local HPHT residual stress to distinguish these diamonds from natural ones. We observe unique ~10f compressive and tensile strains at Type I and Type II diamonds after HPHT treatment. Our result implies that our proposed methods may be appropriate fur identification of the treated diamonds with appropriate reference samples.

The apparent negative crack growth phenomenon which usually arises in partial unloading compliance test is well known. The reason for apparent negative crack growth is the compressive residual stress caused by the plastic zone around the crack tip. The phenomenon as a possible source of error in determining $J_{JC}$ or J-R curve from partial unloading compliance experiments may be eliminated by the correction of compliance. A compliance correction equation is derived from a stress field analysis near the crack tip.

In this study, effects of curing temperature and autofrettage pressure on a Type 3 cryogenic propellant tank, which is composed of composite hoop/helical layers and a metal liner, were investigated by thermo elastic analysis and composite/aluminum ring specimen tests. Temperature field of a Type 3 tank was obtained from solving the heat transfer problem and, in turn, was used as nodal temperature boundary conditions during the elastic analyses for curing temperature and autofrettage pressure effects. As a result, it was shown that the higher curing temperature was, the more residual compressive stress and tensile stress were induced in composites and metal liner, respectively. On the contrary, autofrettage pressure brought the reduction of these residual thermal stresses caused by cryogenic environments to the tank structure. This tradeoff for curing temperature and autofrettage pressure must be considered in the design and manufacturing stages for a Type 3 cryogenic tank.

구형의 압자를 유리평판 위에 올려 놓고 미끄럼 시험을 할 때 하중이 임계치보다 크면 유리평판 표면에 소위 "semi-circular cone-crack(SCCC)"들이 형성된다. 그리고 이 SCCC형성에 필요한 임계하중은 유리의 강도에 의하여 결정된다. 한편 소석회 유리에서 크기가 작은 이온인 $Na^+$를 큰 이온인 $K^+$로 대치시켜주는 경우 시편표면에 잔류압축응력이 생성되어 강도가 크게 증가한다. 따라서 유리의 내마모성도 이온교환을 하면 크게 향상될 것임을 예측할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 이 예측을 실험적으로 확인하는 것이다. 확인하는 것이다.

Welding structures are designed to endure its expected life. The most important factors are life. Especially on welded structure, fatigue strength is critical. So this study performed a research on Box and T shape weldment specimen to examine the influence of welding type. In this experiment, the results indicate Box shape was available in more than T shape. Fatigue tests were performed to evaluate the fatigue strength of the both as-welded and statically pre-loaded specimens by 3 point bending load. Fatigue life can be improved by using Ultrasonic Impact Treatment(UIT) effect. Ultrasonic Impact Treatment(UIT) is excellent for eliminating the tensile residual stresses and generating compressive residual stresses which elevate fatigue strength of welded structures. Also, this shows that welding part has better fatigue life and welding was performed well. In this study, to evaluate the Ultrasonic Impact Treatment(UIT) effect, for welding structure, the experiment was conducted at various levels of stress range between 100MPa and 500MPa. From the test results, it was indicated that fatigue performance was improving by Ultrasonic Impact Treatment(UIT)

Recently the steel parts used at automobiles are required to be used under high stress more than ever before in need of the weight down. To achieve this requirement of a high strength steel, it must be necessary to decrease inclusion content and surface defect as like decarburization, surface roughness etc., In this study, the surface conditions are measured to know the influence on fatigue properties by two cases of shot peening of two-stage shot peening and single-stage shot peening. And for this study, two kinds of spring steel(SAE 9254, DIN 50CrV4) are made. This study shows the outstanding improvement of fatigue properties at the case of two-stage shot peening in the rotary bending fatigue test and this is assumed to be from (1) on low stress condition, the single stage shot peening is not affected by nonmetallic inclusion under metal. (2) it is possible that the two-stage shot peening increases the fatigue life and the high stress, but, that is affected by nonmetallic inclusion under metal. (3) so far, beeasily 50CrV4 have made high stress. But, results also show fatigue failures originated at inclusion near surface, and this inclusion type is turned out to be a alumina of high hardness.

Instrumented indentation testing has been widely used for residual stress measurement. The Knoop indentation is mainly selected for determining anisotropic mechanical properties and non-equibiaxial residual stress. However, the measurement of equibiaxial stress state and compressive residual stress on a specimen surface using Knoop indentation is neither fully comprehended nor unavailable. In this study, we investigated stress conversion factors for measuring Knoop indentation on equibiaxial stress state through indentation depth using finite element analysis. Knoop indentation was conducted for specimens to determine tensile and compressive equibiaxial residual stress. Both were found to be increased proportionally according to indentation depth. The stress field beneath the indenter during each indentation test was also analyzed. Compressive residual stress suppressed the in-plane expansion of stress field during indentation. In contrast, stress fields beneath the indenter developed diagonally downward for tensile residual stress. Furthermore, differences between trends of stress fields at long and short axes of Knoop indenter were observed due to difference in indenting angles and the projected area of plastic zone that was exposed to residual stress.

Nitrogen incorporated diamond-like carbon films were deposited by r.f. glow discharge of mixtures of benzene and ammonia gases. Mechanical properties, composition and atomic bond structure were investigated when the fraction of ammonia increases from 0 to 0.79 and the negative self bias voltage of cathode from 100 to 900 V. Both the residual compressive stress and the hardness decrease from 1.7 to 1.0 GPa and from 2750Kgf/$\textrm{mm}^2$ to 1700Kgf/$\textrm{mm}^2$, respectively. In addition to hydrogen, triply bonded nitrogens also play a role of teminal sites of the three dimensional atomic bond network. By considering the hydrogen concentration and the nitrogen bond characteristics, it can be shown that the mechanical properties of the films are determined by the content of three dimensional inter-links of $sp^2$ clusters. Although the mechanical properties are affected by the nitrogen addition, its depedence on the negative bias voltage is qualitatively identical to that of pure diamond-like carbon films.

When a crack exists under a residual stress, for example in welds, the crack can be closed and it shows non symmetric behavior for tension and compression. Ultrasonic detection method for those nonlinear cracks has been developed recently. The method uses the higher order harmonics generating at the crack surface. In this study, parameter study was carried out for the analysis of the harmonics generation at a nonlinear contact interface as a preliminary study for general 3-dimensional cracks. One-dimensional problem with simple bilinear behavior for the contacting surface was considered. The amplitude of second harmonic to the fundamental wave was obtained for various stiffness ratios, incident frequencies, and the contacting layer thicknesses.

Fracture resistance (J-R) curves, which are used for elastic-plastic fracture mechanics analyses, decreased under tension-compression loading condition. This phenomenon was proved by several former researches, but the causes have not been clear yet. The objective of this paper is to investigate the cause of this phenomenon. On the basis of fracture resistance curve test results, strain hardening hypothesis, stress redistribution hypothesis and crack opening hypothesis were built. In this study, hardness tests, Automated Ball Indentation(ABI) tests, theoretical stress field analyses, and crack opening analyses were performed to prove the hypotheses. From this study, strain-hardening of material, generation of tensile residual stress at crack tip, and crack opening effects are proved as the causes of the decrease hypothesis.
