전자 부품의 신뢰성 평가를 위해서 다양한 방법의 시험법이 사용된다. 전자 부품은 반복적인 작동과 휴식에 의한 열피로를 받게 된다. 이에 대한 신뢰성 평가를 위해 오래전부터 다양한 시험 규격이 만들어지고, 그에 따라 열챔버를 이용한 챔버 사이클링 시험이 수행되고 있다. 하지만, 최근에는 이러한 시험 규격들에 대한 문제가 지적되고 있으며, 또한 챔버 사이클링을 이용한 가속 실험의 경우 실제 작동환경을 완벽히 묘사하지 못하며, 가속할 수 있는 정도가 제한되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 파워 사이클링 시험을 묘사하는 시험 방법을 제안하고, 그를 이용하여 BGA 패키지의 솔더 조인트에 대한 열피로 시험을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 파워 사이클링 시험기는 실제 작동 환경과 유사한 온도 구배를 패키지에 만들어 준다. 그리고 패키지에 열전도를 이용하여 열을 공급함으로써, 대류를 통해 열을 공급하는 챔버 사이클링 시험에 비해 빠르게 가열 및 냉각이 가능하다. 파워사이클링 테스트 방법을 이용하여 다양한 온도 조건에 대해 열피로 수행하여 솔더 조인트의 열피로 특성을 평가하였다.

일정진폭하중과 과대하중비 2.5의 단일 인장과대하중에 의한 4140강 용접부 의 피로균열성장거동을 실온과 -45.deg.C의 저온에서 피로시험과 파면관찰을 통하여 고찰하였다. 이때, 용접부 미시조직의 영향을 평가하기 위해 모재(parent metal), 열영향부(as-welded HAZ), 열처리된 열영향부(PWHT HAZ)로 나누어 응력비 0과 0.5로 CT시험편을 이용하여 피로시험을 실시하였다. 피로균열성장거동은 재료의 미시조직과 온도변화보다는 응력비에 크게 영향을 받았으며, 단일 과대하중에 의한 피로균열성장 지연효과가 모든 재료에서 상당히 크게 나타났다. 전자현미경에 의한 피로파면 관찰 결과, 실온에서는 연성의 스트라이에이숀과 -45.deg.C에서는 의벽개파면과 같은 피로 균열성장거동을 나타내고 있다.

Durability testing method trends of the thermal barrier coating(TBC) for the combustion chamber of the liquid-propellant rocket engine have been investigated. Many types of the durability testing method such as the mechanical tests to measure surface cohesion force, the thermal fatigue tests with laser, furnace, burner or plasma, the small scale combustion tests using injectors, and the thermo-mechanical fatigue tests were observed. The TBC with sufficient durability can be selected for the use of combustion chamber through such specimen-level tests and the durability can be verified by the tests using the real scale combustion chambers.

We measured the mechanical and thermal properties of four types of cast irons used for manufacturing the brake discs of railway vehicles. It was found that these properties could be controlled by varying the composition of Ni, Cr, and Mo. Thermal fatigue tests were carried out by using a thermal fatigue tester in which thermal cycles could be controlled. Thermal crack initiation and propagation were measured on cylindrical specimens. Finally, we simulated the thermal fatigue test procedure by finite element analysis and calculated the thermal fatigue lifetimes by Manson-Coffin's equation and the maximum principal strain. The estimated thermal fatigue lifetimes corresponded to the measured lifetimes when the total crack length was $40{\mu}m{\sim}1mm$.

This study develops a thermal fatigue test system to simulate the fatigue damage in the pipes and nozzles of nuclear power plants with the pre-test to confirm its performance. The test system was designed to apply cyclic thermal loads by periodically injecting coolant into the interior of the cylindrical specimen with the outer surface continuously heated. The confirmation test shows that it can be applied not only to pure thermal loads but also to combined thermal and mechanical loads to the specimen. The system also has the heating and cooling capacity to control performance to cool and reheat to a specific temperature within a limited time. It is also confirmed that the system can successfully generate a large temperature gradient in the wall of the specimen, resulting in fatigue damage.

Global full 3D finite element analysis fatigue models are constructed for flip-chip BGA on system board to predict the creep fatigue life of solder joints during the thermal cycling test. The fatigue model applied is based on Darveaux's empirical equation approach with non-linear viscoplastic analysis of solder joints. The creep life was estimated the creep life as the variations of the four kinds of thermal cycling test conditions, pad structure, composition and size of solder ball. The shortest fatigue life was obtained at the thermal cycling test condition from $-65^{\circ}C$ to $150^{\circ}C$. It was increased about 3.5 times in comparison with that from $0^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$. At the same conditions, the fatigue life of SMD structure as the change of pad structure increased about 5.7% as compared with NSMD structure. Consequently, it was confirmed that the fatigue life became short as the creep strain energy density increased in solder joint.

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) piping, which has recently been applied to safety class III piping in nuclear power plants, can be butt-joined through the thermal fusion process, which heats two fused surfaces and then subject to axial pressure. The thermal fusion process generates bead shapes on the butt fusion. The stress concentrations caused by the bead shapes may reduce the fatigue lifetime. Thus, investigating the effect of the thermal butt fusion beads on fatigue behavior is necessary. This study examined the fatigue behavior of thermal butt fusion via a tensile fatigue test under stress-controlled conditions using finite element elastic stress analysis. Based on the results, the presence of thermal butt fusion beads was confirmed to reduce the fatigue lifetime in the low-cycle fatigue region while having a negligible effect in the medium- and high-cycle fatigue regions.
