This paper dealt with the influence of experimental error generated inevitably during performing experiments on the granular soil behaviour analysis selecting Lade's Single Work-Hardening constitutive model. Several isotropic compression-expansion tests and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests with various confining pressures for Baekma river sands were performed and the values of parameters for the above model were determined using computer program developed for this study based on regression analysis. By finding the range of the upper and lower bound for deviator stress and volumetric strain versus axial strain dependant on the increase and decrease of the standard deviation from mean value of parameters, sensitivities of all the parameters were examined. Practical use of program to determine the parameters and capability to predict the behaviour of granular soil by Lade's Single Work -Hardening model verified.

Precast concrete(P.C.) large panel structures have usually weaker stiffness at joints than that of monolithic in-situ reinforced concrete structures. But structural designers do not in general take into account this characteristics of P.C. large panel structures and use the same analytical models as for the monolithic structure. Therefore, the results of analysis obtained by using these models may be quite different from those actually occurring in real P.C. structure. In this study, the change in force and stress distribution and deflections of structure caused by applying lower shear stiffness at vertical joints are investigated through trying several finite element modeling schemes specific for P.C. structures, Finally, for engineers in practice, a simplified model, which takes account of the effect of lower shear stiffness at vertical joints, is proposed with the understanding on possible amount of errors.

본 연구에서는 원통형 구조물의 진동해석을 위하여 통계에너지 분석방식(st- atistical energy analysis:SEA)이 사용되었다. SEA는 4개의 물리적 변수인 구조물 질량(Mi), 주파수대역에 존재하는 고유진동수(Ni), 내부손실계수(internal loss fact- or) 및 상호손실계수(coupling loss factor)를 이용하여 구조물의 진동수준과 구조물 상호간의 에너지 교환을 해석하는 방법으로서 비록 넓은 주파수 범위에 걸쳐 정확한 진동예측을 하기에는 어느정도 오차가 예상되는 단점이 있으나 진동해석이 용이하고 복잡한 계산을 필요로 하지 않기 때문에 대형구조물의 진동해석에 많이 사용되고 있 는 기법이다. 따라서 연구의 대상인 원통형 구조물의 고유진동수를 예측하기 위하여 일차적으로 반경에 의한 곡률영향을 배제시킨 평판에 대한 분석이 시도되었다. 이와 함께 주어진 주파수 대역에 걸쳐 평판및 원통형 구조물의 고유진동수의 차이를 비교하 였다.그결과로부터 원통형 구조물에 대한 고유진동수 계산식을 평판구조물의 굽힘 강성과 곡률반경으로 야기되는 표면응력에 의한 함수로 표현하였다.

The objective of this study is to investigate fracture toughness and fatigue crack propagation behavior in the Reduced Activation Ferritic Steel (RAFs) JLF-I. The fracture toughness tests were performed with various size(plane size and thickness) and various side groove of specimens. The fatigue crack propagation behavior of the JLF-I steel was investigated by the constant-amplitude loading test for the stress ratios R=O.I, 0.3 and 0.5 respectively. The effects of stress ratios and specimen size on the fatigue crack growth behaviors for JLF-I steel were discussed within the Paris law. The test results showed the standard CT specimen with the side groove of 40 % represented a valid fracture toughness. The fracture resistance curve increased with increasing plane size and decreased with increasing thickness. However, the fracture resistance curve of half size specimen was similar to that of the standard specimen. The fatigue crack propagation rate of a half size specimen was similar to that of a full size specimen at the stress ratios of 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 respectively. The fatigue crack propagation behavior of this material were evaluated by using a half size specimen.

$\beta$-BaB2O4는 고출력 가시광선 및 적외선을 발진시키는데 유용한, 비선형 특성을 가진 물질이다. $\alpha$-$\beta$ 상전이 온도가 녹는점보다 18$0^{\circ}C$ 낮기 때문에 보통 flux법으로 단결정을 성장시킨다. 수년전 Itoh등은 $\beta$-BaB2O4단결정을 congruent조성의 용액으로부터 Czochralski법으로 metastable한 상태에서 직접 성장시켰다. 그렇지만 그 공정은 잘 이해되지 않고 있으며 재현하기가 매우 어렵다. 저자들은 $\beta$-BaB2O4단결정을 용액표면온도도 1034$^{\circ}$-1085$^{\circ}C$, pulling rate 3mm/h, 10-30 rpm의 범위에서 성장시켰으며 융액표면의 온도구배는 $\beta$-상으로 성장시키는데 매우 중요한 인자로 여겨진다. Seed로는 직경 1-2mm의 c축방향 $\beta$-BaB2O4단결정 봉이 상용되어 성장방향을 조절하고 열응력을 최소화시켰다. 성장된 $\beta$-상의 단결정들은 6-fold모양을 하며 표면에 작은 비늘같은 것들이 붙어있고 중심부에 core가 있는 것을 알았다. Flux법으로 성장시킨 $\beta$-BaB2O4단결정을 사용한 seeds는 단결정 성장 및 냉각 중에 cracks이 자주 발생하였으며, boule의 cracks은 afterheater를 사용할 경우 다소 줄일 수 있었다. 성장된 단결정의 광학특성이 측정되었다.

This paper deals with manufacturing conditions to increase the working die's life span which are the key factor in the manufacturing process of the coins and medals. Using the boundary element method, the stress diagram for the coining die was obtained, which was used to find the life span of working die. To iud the working die's life span related to the diameter of collar and blank coin, eight different sizes were tested and the optimal condition was obtained. With the adjusted impressing force, the working die's life span was increased up to 60 percent.

Experimental research has been carried out to investigate the characteristics of the fatigue crack initiation and propagation behavior of Tailor Welded Blank(TB) sheet used for vehicle body. We used three types of specimens which were machined of the same base metal: one is 1.4mm thick, another is 1.6mm thick, and the third(TB specimen) is laser-welded of two specimens(1.4mm and 1.6mm thick ones). The results of tensile and hardness test indicate that the yield strength of the TB specimen is the highest, and the hardness around welding bead is higher than that of base metal. Fatigue strength and fatigue limit of the TB specimen are much superior to those of the base metal up to $10^6$ cycles. The fatigue crack propagation of the heat-affected zone of the TB specimen is slower than that of the base metal. Welding bead has the fastest crack Propagation in the low stress intensity factor range$(\DeltaK)$ region, but the slowest in the high $\DeltaK$ region. The fatigue propagation characteristic of the TB specimen is relatively stable in comparison with that of the base metal in the high ${\Delta}K$ region around over $28MPa\sqrt{m}$.

Metal matrix composites had generated a lot of interest in recent time because of their high specific strength and stiffness in specific properties. It was also highlighted as the material of frontier industry because strength, heat-resistance, corrosion-resistance and wear-resistance were superiored. In this study, the strength properties of $Al_{18}B_{4}O_{33}$/AC4CH composites were represented mixing the binder of $SiO_2$. It was also fabricated by squeeze casting. $Al_{18}B_{4}O_{33}$/AC4CH was fabricated at the melt temperature of $760^{\circ}C$, the perform temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and mold temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 83.4MPa. Consequently, fatigue life was observed roughly in the order of AC4CH> nobiner> $SiO_2$, independently on crack propagation direction and stress ratio.

The application of fracture mechanics is being increased gradually to assess the safety of welded structures containing crack. Fatigue crack propagation behavior and elastic-plastic fracture toughness J$_{IC}$ of home made flux cored wire(1.22mm) CO$_{2}$ weldments was discussed. Especially fatigue crack propagation test was carried out by .DELTA.K control instead of load control and elastic-plastic fracture toughness J$_{IC}$ was obtained by ASTM-R curve method on C.T.specimen in transverse direction of weldments. The results obtained are as follows; (1) Weld metal presented an almost complete similarity to base metal on fatigue crack propagation rate in transverse direction. (2) Weld metal was more than base metal on J$_{IC}$ value in transverse direction. (3) F.C.W. CO$_{2}$ weldments had an excellent characteristic of fatigue crack propagation rate and J$_{IC}$ in less than 50kg/mm$^{2}$ steel grade, this would result from that weld metal had good static strength.trength.

To estimate the reliability of 12Cr alloy steel, the material of turbine blade in the steam power plant, Its corrosion susceptibility and fatigue characteristics in NaCl and Na$_2$SO$_4$solution with the difference of concentration and temperature was investigated. The polarization tests recommended in ASTM G5 standard for corrosion susceptibility in the various corrosive solutions was estimated. It showed that the higher temperature, the faster corrosion rates and corrosion rates were the fastest in 3.5 wt.% NaCl and 1M Na$_2$SO$_4$solution. From these results, the degradation conditions were determined in distilled water, 3.5 wt.% NaCl and 1M Na$_2$SO$_4$solution at room temperature, 60$\^{C}$ and 90$\^{C}$ during 3, 6 and 9 months. Its surface had a few pits for long duration. But, it was not susceptible in sulfide and chloride condition of several temperatures. If the degraded 12Cr alloy steel and non-degraded one were compared with fatigue characteristics, Any differences were not found regardless of temperature and degradation period.
