중수로 원자로에서 핵심 구조물인 압력관은 합금이 사용되고 있는데, 고온, 고압의 방사선 분위기에서 사용되기 때문에 가동중 변형을 받는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 압력관의 건전성 평가기술을 확보하기 위하여 Zr-2.5wt.% Nb 압력관의 집합조직과 온도 변화에 따른 강도 특성을 조사하였다. 집합조직의 변화는 시편의 채취방향을 달리하여 네 가지의 집합조직 변화를 주었으며, 이들 시편에 대해 상온에서 부터 45$0^{\circ}C$까지 온도를 변화시가면서 인장시험을 실시하였다. 온도가 증가함에 따라 시편의 집합조직과 관계없이 네 종류의 시편 모두가 30$0^{\circ}C$까지는 강도가 직선적으로 감소하는 현상을 보이며, 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 37$0^{\circ}C$ 사이의 온도에서 강도가 약간 증가하는 현상을 보였다. 또한 37$0^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 강도가 다시 직선적으로 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이 같은 현상은 30$0^{\circ}C$ 까지는 프리즘 슬림(-slip)으로 전위가 움직이다가 30$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서부터 37$0^{\circ}C$까지는 피라미드 슬림(-slip)계의 경쟁 상호작용에 의한 추가적인 응력이 필요하여 나타난 현상이라 사료된다. 온도의 변화에 따른 강도와 연신율의 curve에서 30$0^{\circ}C$와 37$0^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 plateaus region과 연신율이 최소값을 갖는 것은 동적변형시효(dynamic strain ageing)현상과 관련이 있는 것으로 생각되나 추가적인 연구가 필요하다. 집합도가 변함에 따라 인장강도는 T(transverse)>L(longitudinal)> 30。> 45 。순으로 나타났으며 이는 slip과 twin의 복합적인 작용에 의한 것으로 해석된다.

The nature, degree, and evolution of contact damage from Hertzian contacts in silicon nitride-boron nitride composites($Si_3N_4-BN$) are investigated as a function of boron nitride content. The strong deviations of indentation stress-strain from elastic response indicate exceptional plasticity in $Si_3N_4-BN$. The absence of ring cracks or cone cracks on the surfaces is observed, indicating a high damage tolerance. Subsurface quasi- plastic deformation by shear stress is considerable and microdamage is widely distributed within the region below the contact. Shear faults associated with local microfailures play a precursor role in plasticity of this material. When boron nitride content increases, $Si_3N_4-BN$ becomes softer and more quasi-plastic.

Although various methods for determination of damage threshold in rock have been suggested, clear damage thresholds were determined by some methods, but different thresholds were measured by other methods. We determined the damage thresholds in Hangdeung granite using all the methods suggested, and investigated the best methods, applicability and errors of each method. The crack initiation threshold and the crack damage threshold which are important in investigation of characteristics of crack development and failure were verified by field strength ratio method and long-term constant load test. The crack closure stress and the crack initiation stress were 57.5 MPa and 77.6 MPa, and the most exact values were yielded by crack volumetric strain. The secondary crack initiation stress was 90.6 MPa and AE event count and AE event count rate were the effective methods. The volumetric stiffness, AE event count and AE event count rate were the most effective methods for determination of crack coalescence threshold and crack coalescence stress was 110.3 MPa. The crack damage stress was 127.5 MPa and was measured correctly by volumetric stiffness and AE event count rate. The ratio between crack initiation stress and uniaxial compressive strength was 0.47 which was very similar with the FSR value of 0.46. The ratio between crack damage stress and uniaxial compressive strength was almost the same as the ratio between long-term strength and uniaxial compressive strength, indicating that the crack initiation stress and the crack damage stress measured were correct.

In this study, a large-scale direct shear test was performed to evaluate the shear characteristics of the pile-soil interface according to the fines content and confining pressure conditions as a reasonable evaluation method of the pullout resistance performance of pile considering the soil conditions. It was found that the shear stress was greatly generated under the conditions of high normal stress and low fines content. In addition, the maximum shear stress was found to be rather large under the conditions of the same normal stress and fines content, when pile surface had high roughness. The internal friction angle decreased at the pile-soil interface, when the fines content in the ground increased. On the other hand, the cohesion decreased under the condition of high fines content. And the internal friction angle and cohesion were large regardless of the fines content in the model ground, when the roughness of the pile surface was high.

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics are widely used in the application of high-temperature structural devices due to their light weight as well as superior hardness, fracture toughness, and temperature stability. In this paper, we employed classical molecular dynamics simulations using Tersoff's potential to investigate the elastic constants of the SiC crystal at high temperature. The stress-strain characteristics of the SiC crystal were calculated with the LAMMPS software and the elastic constants of the SiC crystal were analyzed. Based on the stress-strain analysis, the SiC crystal has shown the elastic deformation characteristics at the low temperature region. But the slight plastic deformation behavior was shown as applied the high strain over $1,000^{\circ}C$. Also the elastic constants of the SiC crystal were changed from about 475 GPa to 425 GPa as increased the temperature to $1,250^{\circ}C$.

본 연구에서는 EGW, FCAW 공정 적용에 따른 고강도 극후판 EH36-TMCP강 용접부의 역학적 거동 및 파괴인성 $K_{IC}$ 을 규명하기 위해, 먼저 열분포, 열탄소성 수치해석을 통하여 용접부의 역학적 거동(용접잔류응력, 소성변형율 등의 크기, 분포, 발생기구)을 고찰하였다. 그리고 이때 얻어진 잔류응력을 초기응력으로 하여, 잔류응력과 외력의 복합하중에 대한 파괴인성 $K_{Ic}$ 특성을 해석하였다. 용접공정별 균열이 존재하는 용접부의 파괴기준을 살펴보면, EGW용접부의 경우가 FCAW용접부의 경우에 비해 균열의 성장이 다소 용이하여 $K_{IC}$ 값이 다소 낮게 나타났다. EGW용접부의 파괴인성 $K_{IC}$ 경우 중첩된 경우(복합하중)가 순수 외력만 작용하는 경우보다 파괴 인성치가 다소 감소하는 경향을 보이고, a/W가 작을 경우 중첩의 경우가 순수 외력만의 경우보다 파괴인성치 차이가 크나, a/W가 증가함에 따라 그 차이가 점차 없어지는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, FCAW용접부의 경우 균열길이가 작은 범위에서는 중첩된 경우가 순수 외력만 작용 할 경우보다 파괴 인성치가 다소 증가함을 보이지만, a/W가 증가함에 따라 순수 외력만의 작용의 경우와 중첩의 경우의 파괴인성 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 온도의 상승에 의하여 부피가 팽창하는 열팽창 고무 치공구의 팽창 특성을 이용하여 열경화성 복합재료를 경화하고 압축하는 과정을 실험과 모델링을 통하여 해석하였으며, 열가소성 복합재료의 함침공정을 연구하였다. 열팽창 고무치공구가 사용되는 닫힌계와 열린계에서 예상되는 압력을 이론적으로 유도하였고, 경화가 수반되는 과정에 있어서는 실험을 통하여 열팽창치공구와 프리프레그가 나타내는 압력을 측정하였다. 온도가 상승하고 경화가 수반되는 경우에 등속도 압축실험에 의하여 얻어지는 응력-변형율 곡선은 비선형점탄성 특성을 보여주었는데, 본 연구에서는 Maxwell모델을 KWW(Kohlrausch-Williame-Watts)식으로 변형시킨 모델식을 이용하여 이를 매우 정확하게 표현할 수 있었다. 또한 고무치공구를 이용하여 열가소성 수지의 복합재료 성형공정을 실험하였고, 중성자 레디오그래피 촬영을 통하여 기공의 분포를 관찰하였다.

In this study, an elastomer-assistered compression molding process was investigated by experiments as well as modeling for the long-fiber reinforced thermoset composites. The consolidation pressure generated by fixed-volume and variable-volume conditions was thermodynamically derived for both elastomer and curing prepregs, and was compared with the pressure measured during curing of epoxy matrix. Exhibiting non-linear viscoelastic characteristics in the compressive stress-strain tests, the measured stress was well compared with a modifed KWW (Kohlrausch-Williame-Watts) equation, which is based on the Maxwell viscoelastic model. Using the developed model equations, the consolidation pressure generated by the elastomer was successfully predicted for the compression molding process of thermoset composite materials in tile closed mold system.

Electrostriction is the phenomenon that a material is strained due to Maxwell stress developed by the applied voltage. In many electrostrictive materials, especially polymeric elastomers can produce large deformation and force due to their low elastic modulus. In this study, polyurethanes and acrylic rubber with compliant electrodes were used as electrostrictive polymer(EP) actuator. Actuation characteristics of the EP actuators with different physical properties of dynamic modulus and dynamic dielectiric constant were analyzed under AC field. The classical laminate theory was also used to simulate the actuation process in relation to the geometry and the physical properties of the actuators.

World widely, the occurrences of earthquakes have been increased recently including to nations which earthquake often happen to like Japan. Taking into account that the earthquake acceleration at design was 0.154 g at the contigency level earthuake (CLE) with its geological condition, it resulted that this method must be the most efficient condition against the earthquake vibration to two lane cut-and cover tunnel. The correlations between the result of the shaking table test and its numerical analysis showed that the test data of the bending stress due to the earthquake vibration have been underestimated about 5 percents in case of the cut slope 1 : 0.6 and about 10 percent in case of the cut slope 1 : 1.2. However, on average, the results showed a similar tendency that the higher the height of the backfill of the EPS block was, the less the bending stress was.
