This paper presents finite element (FE) analyses to clarify the effects of external pressure on the residual stresses in a girth-welded steel pipe. At first, FE simulation of the girth welding process is carried out to obtain the weld-induced residual stresses employing sequentially coupled three-dimensional (3-D) thermo-mechanical FE formulation. Then, 3-D elastic-plastic FE analyses incorporating the residual stresses and plastic strains obtained from the preceding FE simulation are performed to investigate the residual stress behavior in the girth-welded pipe under external pressure. The FE analysis results show that the hoop compressive stresses induced by the external pressure significantly alter the hoop residual stresses in the course of the mechanical loading.

Zr-2.5%Nb 합금에서 응력방향에 따른 DHC특성의 차이를 알아보고자 하였다. 판상의 CT시편을 이용하여 수소를 200 ppm 주입하고 응력을 압력관의 길이 방향으로 가하고 notch를 윈주방향으로 한 경우와 원주방향으로 응력을 가하고 notch를 길이 방향으로 한 경우의 균열전파속도를 측정하여 본 결과 길이 방향으로 응력을 가하였을 때 균열전파속도가 1/100 정도 감소하였으며, 균열발생을 위한 임계응력확대계수도 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 균열전파 방향도 원주방향으로 응력을 가하였을 때는 균열이 precrack을 따라 그대로 진행되었으나, 응력을 길이 방향으로 가하였을 때는 precrack을 따라 균열이 전파되지 못하고 균열분리 현상을 보였다 이것은 원래 모재가 보유하고 있는 집합조직과, 응력에의하여 수소화물이 재배열할 때 기존의 a상에서의 특정 방향 관계를 유지하여 석출함으로써 균열이 수소화물을 따라 전파됨이 원인인 것으로 생각된다. 응력을 원주방향으로 가하였을 때 균열주위에 수소화물이 길게 석출하지만, 응력을 길이 방향으로 기하였을 때는 수소화물이 20$\mu\textrm{m}$ 정도의 작은 크기로 분리된 균열과 같은 방향으로 분포하고 있음을 관찰하였다. 이로부터 집합조직을 개량함으로써 DHC저항성에 대한 효과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인 할 수 있었고 DHCV model에서 방향성을 수소화물의 재배열인자로부터 고려할 필요성이 있음을 알게 되었다.

Using blind hole drilling method the residual stresses and welding deflections are measured for the cylindrical shell with various heat inputs and cylinder diameters. As a result, it is verified that the axial and hoop residual stresses which are generated near the weld part of cylinders are increased, as the heat inputs and cylinder diameters are increased. And experimental results show good agreements with those of precedent researchers. In this paper, it is validated that dominant parameters, heat input Q and the dimension of cylinder h/D have some effects on the magnitude and distribution of axial and hoop residual stresses and welding deflections. The empirical equations of residual stresses and welding deflections are made by using multiple linear regression with experimental results.

고강도 알루미늄 합금 링롤재의 급냉, 링 팽창(expansion) 및 링 압축(compression) 응력제거처리후 잔류응력을 예측하기 위하여 2차원 축대칭 열해석 및 탄소성 해석을 수행하였다. 급냉 및 응력제거처리 후 2단 과시효 처리(T73)된 링롤재에 대하여 3단계 절단법(Three step sectioning method)을 적용하여 링롤재의 두께에 따른 잔류응력 분포를 측정하였으며, 측정결과를 급냉 및 응력제거처리후 잔류응력 해석결과와 비교분석하였다. 링의 급냉후 원주 및 축방향의 잔류응력 해석값은 T73후 측정값과 비슷한 경향을 보였으며, 링의 내면과 외면에서 압축응력을 나타내었고 중심에서 인장응력을 나타내었다. 잔류응력은 링 팽창(T7351) 및 링 압축(T7352) 적용후 T73에 비해 현저히 감소하였으며, 축방향의 제거 효과가 원주방향보다 우수하게 나타났다. 또한 링 압축에 의한 제거효과가 링 팽창보다 크게 나타났다. 링롤재의 응력제거처리는 제거 효과 및 실용성 측면에서 링 압축 공정이 유리하며, 치수제어 및 장비용량 측면에서 링 팽창 공정이 유리하다는 결론을 얻었다.

Subsea pipelines have been operated with buried depths of 1.2-4m underneath the seabed to prevent buoyancy and external impacts. Therefore, they have to show resistance to both the soil load and the hydrostatic pressure. In this study, the structural integrity of a subsea pipeline subjected to soil load and hydrostatic pressure was evaluated by using FE analyses. A parametric study showed that the internal pressure increased the plastic collapse depth by increasing the resistance to plastic collapse. The hoop stress increased with an increase in the buried depth for the same water depth; however, the hoop stress decreased with an increase in the water depth for the same buried depth.

River crossing pipelines have been being operated with buried depth of 1.2~4m underneath river bottom to prevent buoyance and external impact. River crossing pipelines have to show resistance to soil load and hydrostatic pressure. In this study, structural integrity of the river crossing pipeline subjected to soil load and hydrostatic pressure was evaluated by using FE analyses. Hoop stress increased with increasing buried depth under identical water height in case of without concrete encasement, however, hoop stress decreased with increasing water height under identical buried depth.

The study investigated the effect of the distance between two collinear circumferential surface cracks on the primary stress corrosion crack (PWSCC) growth in alloy 600TT steam generator tubes using a finite element damage analysis based on the PWSCC initiation model and macroscopic phenomenological damage mechanics approach. The damage analysis method was verified by comparing the results to the previous study results. The verified method was applied to collinear circumferential surface PWSCCs. As a result, it was found that the collinear cracks showed earlier coalescence and penetration times than the a single crack, and the times increased with the distance. In addition, it is expected that penetration may occur before coalescence of two cracks if they are more than a specific distance apart.

A major stress determining the remaining life of the tube in feedwater heater of fossil fuel power plant is hoop stress by the internal pressure. However, thermal stress due to temperature difference across the wall thickness also contributed to reduce the remaining life of the tube. Therefore, thermal loading must be considered even though the contribution of internal pressure loading to the stresses of the tube was known to be much higher than that of the thermal loading. In this study, thermal stress of the tubes in the de-superheating zone was estimated, which was generated due to the temperature difference across the tube thickness. Analytic equations were shown for determining the hoop stress and the radial stress of the tube with uniform thinning and for the temperature across the tube thickness. Accuracy and effectiveness of the analytic equations for the stresses were verified by comparing the results obtained by the analytic equations with those obtained from finite element analysis. Using finite element analysis, the stresses for eccentric thinning were also determined. The effect of heat transfer coefficient on thermal stress was investigated using series of finite element analyses with various values of heat transfer coefficient for both inner and outer surface of the tube. It was shown that the effect of heat transfer coefficient at outer surface was larger than that of heat transfer coefficient at inner surface on the thermal stress of the tube. Also, the hoop stress was larger than the radial stress for both cases of uniformly and eccentrically thinned tubes when the thermal loading was only considered without internal pressure loading.

내압을 받는 압력관의 파괴는 원주방향의 응력이 주된 요인이므로, 압력관의 안전성을 평가를 위해서는 원주방향의 인장특성을 아는 것이 필요하다. 소형 압력관의 인장특성을 평가할 때, 정확한 원주방향의 인장특성을 알기 위해서는 관으로 가공된 후의 재료로 시험해야 하지만, 부피의 제약으로 인하여 원주방향으로의 표준 인장시험편을 제작하지 못하므로 가공하기 전의 재료의 물성치를 사용하고 있다. 이를 개선하고자 원주방향의 인장특성을 평가하기 위한 방법의 하나로 링 시험법(ring test)이 있다.(중략)

Volume of concrete slab changes by variations of temperature and moisture after its placement. Shrinkage due to evaporation causes tensile stress in the slab when contraction of the slab is restrained by its self weight, friction with subbase, and etc. Actual tensile stress caused by the shrinkage was less than theoretically predicted stress according to previous studies. It was the stress reduction due to visco-elastic property of the early-age concrete slab partially restrained. In this study, strains of restrained circumferential, unrestrained circumferential, and unrestrained square pillar concrete specimens were measured to investigate stress reduction of the specimens with age of concrete. Elastic modulus of the concrete was measured at the age of 1, 3, 7, 14, 28 days and penetration test was performed. The stress reduction was calculated by input the test results into theoretical equations suggested by previous researchers. The stress reduction of the restrained concrete specimens will be applied to design of concrete pavements based on results of the study.
