중수로용 핵연료봉의 봉단마개 부위는 열.기계적 작용에 의해 핵연료봉 파손이 쉽게 발생할 수 있는 취약 부위로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 핵연료봉 설계시 봉단마개 부위의 열.기계적 거동을 해석하고, 이 결과를 설계에 반영하여 파손 가능성이 없음을 확인하여야 한다. 여기에서는 중수로용 개량 핵연료인 CANFLEX-NU 핵연료봉 봉단마개에서의 열.기계적 거동을 해석하였는데, 이 결과 CANFLEX-NU 핵연료봉은 출력이 매우 낮아서 열중성자속 집중을 고려하더라도 봉단마개 부위 건전성을 충분히 유지하는 것으로 나타났다.

공작기계로 금속을 절삭할 때 공작기계의 불안정, 즉 자려진동의 발생은 절삭과정과 공작기계구조 두 요소의 동적 거동에 기인한다. 공작기계의 채터와 구조의 동적인 거동은 모든 금속가공에서 가공물의 표면조도와 공구수명, 공작기계의 수명에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이와 같은 채터와 동적인 거동을 해석함으로써 최적의 절삭 조건을 결정할 수 있으나, 이러한 연구에서 가장 어려운 점은 기계구조와 절삭과정이 폐회를 구성하고 있기 때문이다.

극심한 고온 및 고압 환경에 노출되기 쉬운 항공우주 구조물에서 발생하는 기계적 삭마 현상을 해석하기 위하여 영역/경계 분할법을 적용한 삭마 해석 모델을 제안하였다. 영역 및 경계는 상변화 현상에 의한 비선형 거동을 하는 삭마 부영역과 선형 거동을 하는 선형 열탄성 부영역, 공유면, 경계 공유면으로 분할하였다. 삭마 재료 내부의 열분해 반응은 엔탈피 방법을 이용하였으며, 표면 침식 반응은 공기역학적 전단 응력과 삭마 재료의 전단 강도를 기반으로 매칭 기법을 이용하였다. 화학적 및 열적 삭마는 고려하지 않았으며, 간단한 수치 해석을 통해서 기본적인 기계적 삭마 특성을 분석하였다.

Certain structural components are exposed to high temperatures. At high temperature, under thermal and mechanical loading, metal components exhibit both creep and plastic behavior. The unified constitutive theory is to model both the time-dependent behavior(creep) and the time-independent behavior(plasticity) in one set of equations. Microscopically both creep and plasticity are controlled by the motion of dislocations. A finite element method is presented encorporating a unified constitutive model for the transient analysis of viscoplastic behavior of structures exposed to high temperature.

This paper proposes a new finite element formulation based on enhanced first-order shear deformation theory including the transverse normal strain effect via the mixed formulation (EFSDTM-TN) for the effective thermo-mechanical analysis of laminated composite structures. The main objective of the EFSDTM-TN is to provide an accurate and efficient solution in describing the thermo-mechanical behavior of laminated composite structures by systematically establishing the relationship between two independent fields (displacement and transverse stress fields) via the mixed formulation. Another key feature is to consider the thermal strain effect without additional unknown variables by introducing a refined transverse displacement field. In the finite element formulation, an eight-node isoparametric plate element is newly developed to implement the advantage of the EFSDTM-TN. Numerical solutions for the thermo-mechanical behavior of laminated composite structures are compared with those available in the open literature to demonstrate the numerical performance of the proposed finite element model.

용접열영향부는 최고 도달온도로부터의 거리에 따른 온도구배 변화와 급격한 열 사이 클 때문에 조직 및 물성치의 변화가 예상되는 영역이므로 인성저하등 취성이 잠재적으로 내포된 지역임을 쉽게 예상할 수 있다. 따라서 송전 철탑용 STKT 590 용접열영향부에서의 상변태 거동과 미세조직의 변화에 따른 기계적 특성을 파악하여 용접부의 안전성 확보를 위해 용접열영향부(HAZ)의 상변태거동과 미시파괴기구를 연구하고 개선안을 도출할 필요가 있다.

In this paper, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was carried to predict thermo-mechanical behaviors for carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced epoxy composites and to analyze the trends. Total of six models having the volume fractions of CNT from 0 to 25% in epoxy were constructed. To predict thermal behaviors, temperature was increased constantly from 300 to 600 K, and the glass transition temperature ($T_g$) and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) analyzed using the relationship between temperature and specific volume. The elastic moduli that represented to the mechanical behaviors were also predicted by constant strain. Additionally, the effects of functionalization of CNT on mechanical behaviors of composite were analyzed. Models were constructed to represent CNTs functionalized by nitrogen doping and COOH groops, and interfacial behaviors and elastic moduli were analyzed. Results showed that the agglomerations of CNTs in epoxy cause by perturbations of thermo-mechanical behaviors, and the functionalization of CNTs improved the interfacial response as well as mechanical properties.

A great deal of difficulty is encountered in the thermo-mechanical analyses of nozzle assemblies for solid propellant rocket motors. The main issue in this paper is the modeling of the boundary conditions and the connections between the various components-gaps, relative movements of the components, contacts, friction, etc. This paper evaluates the complex phenomena of nozzle assemblies during burning time with co-simulations that include fluid, thermal surface reaction/ablation, and structural analysis. The validity of this approach is verified via comparison of analysis results with measured strains.

A coupled thermal/structural analysis of mechanical ablation is performed based on domain/boundary decomposition and finite element method. The ablative material non-linearity and boundary non-linearity can be easily localized within a few subdomains and/or on the boundary interfaces. An enthalpy method is applied to simplify the effect of heat of pyrolysis in the ablative subdomains. In addition, maximum in-plane shear stress is considered as a surface recession criterion for the mechanical ablation simulation. The basic characteristics of the proposed method are examined carefully through numerical experiments.
