In this paper, the acceptance criteria(Striking Velocities) for the A12519 weldments have been developed. Dynamic impact simulation of A12519 plate was achieved by using LS-DYNA, and predict the projectile velocity and the crack length. Also, Ballistic impact tests of A12519 plate have been performed, and compared with analysis results. Critical velocities of A12519 plate were acquired respectively, and striking velocities of A12519 weldments were calculated. Present work data will be used by basic data in ballistic impact test for A12519 weldments.

In this paper, computational evaluation method for fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR) based on material viscoplastic-damage model is proposed. Viscoplastic-damage model expressing material constitutive behavior of 7% nickel steel is introduced and is implemented into commercial finite element analysis(FEA) code, ABAQUS, as a user defined material subroutine(UMAT) for application in the FEA environments. Verification of developed UMAT and material parameters of material model are carried out by uniaxial tensile test simulations of 7% nickel steel. Moreover, jump-in-cycles procedure and rearrangement of critical damage are employed and also implemented to the ABAQUS UMAT for fatigue damage analysis. Typical FCGR test results such as relationship between crack length and number of cycles and relationship between da/dN and ${\Delta}K$ could be obtained from FCGR test simulation using developed UMAT and these results are compared with experimental results in order to verify of proposed computational method.

코팅 층과 소지 사이의 접합력 평가를 위하여 박리 시험법(Peel Off Test), 블리스터 시험법(Blister Test), 압입균열 시험법(Indentation Test), 직접 인장 시험법(Direct Full Off Test), 스카치 테이프 시험법(Scotch Tape Test), 그리고 스크래치 시험법(Scratch Test) 등이 사용되어 왔다. 이 중 박리 시험법과 스카치 테이프 시험법이 산업계에서 일반적으로 사용되고 있다. 전자 산업계에서 많이 사용되고 있는 박리시험법은 금속박막과 절연체 기판 사이의 접합력을 간단하게 측정할 수 있으며, 실험값의 재현성이 뛰어난 장점이 있다. 또한, 측정하는 동안 만들어지는 박리 곡선(Peel Curve)로부터 분석의 신뢰성 여부를 확인할 수 있다. 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 박리 시험법 특성 상 금속 코팅층의 강도가 금속 피막/기판간 접합 강도를 초과하여야 하기 때문에 수백 nm 이하의 박막의 접합력 측정에는 적용하기가 어렵다. 이에 반하여, 스카치 테이프 분석법은 일정길이의 접착 테이프를 박막 표면에 붙인 후 다시 떼어내면서 접착력을 평가하는 방법으로, 박막의 접합력 평가에 적용이 가능하다. 그러나 이 방법은 합격 불합격 여부를 판정하는 정성적인 방법으로 정량평가가 어렵다. 또한, 박막에 접착 테이프를 붙일때의 압력, 테이프를 박리할 때의 각도 및 속도를 일정하게 제어하기가 쉽지 않아 결과의 신뢰성이 높지 않다. 스크래치 테스트는 탐사침(Stylus)을 이용하여 박막의 표면에 하중을 증가시키면서 기판을 이동하여, 피막의 균열이나 박리될 때의 임계 하중값 (Critical Load; Lc)을 측정하는 방법이다. 이 방법은 시편 준비가 쉽고 간단하여 빠른 분석이 가능하고, 수백 nm 이하의 박막에도 적용 가능하다. 또한, 접합력을 정량화 할 수 있기 때문에 변수에 따른 접합력 비교가 용이하다는 장점이 있다. 이와 같은 분석적 장점에도 불구하고, 스크래치 시험을 통한 접합력 측정 방법은 아직까진 산업적으로 널리 활용되지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 스크래치 테스트의 원리 및 이론에 대하여 간략히 알아보고, 스크래치 분석을 이용한 접합력 비교에 대한 실제 사례들을 소개하고자 하였다.

Mechanical properties(flexural strength hardness fracture toughness) of alumina ceramics were evaluated. Alumina products of four companies were selected and three of those were made in Korea and one of those was made in Japan. The large differences according to manufacturing companies had resulted from flexural strength and weibull modulus which had a wide ranges of 300 to 400 MPa and 5 to 15 respectively. Critical indenstation load which could be neglected the effect of elastic recovery was about 9.8N and Vickers' hardness were about 15 GPa. Fracture toughnesses were evaluated by IF and ISB method. It was more preferable to the average at one indentation load that fracture toughness were obtained from the slope of the relationship between indentation load and crack length in IF method and between indentation load and fracture load in ISB method and fracture toughness was about 4 MPa·m1/2.

Methodology based on the elastic-plastic fracture mechanics has been widely accepted in predicting the critical crack length(CCL) of pressure tubes of CANDU nuclear plants. A conservative estimate of CCL is obtained by employing the J-resistance curves measured with the specimens satisfying plane strain condition as suggested in the ASTM standard. Due to limited thickness of the pressure tubes the curved compact tension(CT) specimens taken out from tile pressure tube have been used in obtaining J-resistance curves. The curved CT specimen inevitably introduce slant fatigue crack during precracking. Hence, effect of specimen geometry and slant crack on J-resistance curve should be explored. In this study, the difference of J integral values between the standard CT specimens satisfying plane strain condition and the nonstandard curved CT with limited thickness (4.2mm) is estimated using finite element analysis. The fracture resistance curves of Zr-2.5Nb obtained previously by other authors are critically discussed. Various finite element analysis were conducted such as 2D analysis under plane stress and plane strain conditions and 3D analysis for flat CT, curved CT with straight crack and curved CT with slant crack front. J-integral values were determined by local contour integration near the crack tip, which was considered as accurate J-values. J value was also determined from the load versus load line displacement curve and the J estimation equation in the ASTM standard. Discrepancies between the two values were shown and suggestion was made for obtaining accurate J values from the load line displacement curves obtained by the curved CT specimens.
