The flexural performance of amorphous steel fibers having environmental and economy benefits due to relatively short manufacturing process were evaluated as well as that of hooked steel fibers by varing fiber length and volume fraction. Fiber lengths were 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm and fiber volume fractions were varied from 0.3% to 1.2%. Test results with flexural performance showed that mixing design needs to be careful because of relatively high volume of amorphous steel fiber compared to hooked steel fibers. High flexural strength was obtained from both longer fiber length and higher volume fraction. Residual strength and toughness of amorphous steel fiber were similar to that of hooked steel fiber, even though rapid dropping of applied load right after concrete matrix breaking. It can be judged that relatively high ability of energy dissipation around first cracking area relatively overcome rapid dropping of loading.

High performance fiber reinforced cementitious composite (HPFRCC) can provide high fracture energy absorption as well as high strength with high fiber volume fraction. The increased fracture energy helps resisting high frequency loadings, such as earthquake, impact or blast. This study investigates the flexural performance of slurry infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON), one of the important HPFRCC, with respect to varying fiber volume fraction. The maximum fiber volume fraction was 8.0 % and reduced to 6.0% by 0.5% and the maximum volume fraction is obtained by packing fibers with simple tapping by hands. The used fiber was a steel fiber with the length 30 mm and the diameter of 0.5 mm. The flexural strengths were 48.7 MPa at 8.0 % and 22.8 MPa at 6.0 %. The measured flexural strength is much higher compared to other cememtitious composite materials but decreased proportional to the fractions. This result implies that for SIFCON considered herein the reduced amount of steel fibers may affect its flexural performance in a negatively way. The flexural toughness, an index to represent the fracture energy absorption, also decreased with the reduced fiber amount.

Shot ball impacts to materials cause residual compressive stress on their surfaces. Improving the fatigue strength of a material that has this residual compress stress is the purpose of the shot peening process. A numerical study was performed to evaluate the effect of the strain rate sensitivity and hardness of the shot ball on the residual compressive stress. We calculated the residual compressive stress due to multiple impact shot peening using ABAQUS 6.9-1. AISI 4340 steel was the material used in this study. We compared the effects of high strain rate sensitivities and low strain rate sensitivities and found that when the material's sensitivity to the strain rate increased, the residual compressive stress decreased. In addition, the residual compressive stress of low-hardness material is higher than that of high-hardness material.

우주발사체용 로켓트 구조재로 사용되는 알루미늄합금 단조재는 강도확보를 위하여 고온으로 가열후 급냉과정에서 상당한 크기의 잔류응력이 발생되고 이로 인해 기계가공시 변형이 유발되어 조립성이 나빠진다. 잔류응력은 그 크기가 재료의 항복강도를 초과할 때 제거되므로 응력제거(stress relief)를 위해서는 외부하중이 가해져야 한다. 응력제거 처리는 소성변형, 열처리 및 초음파 등의 방법으로 수행되며 소성변형에 의한 제거효과가 가장 크다 형상이 복잡한 형 단조재의 경우 열간단조금형과 동일한 금형을 이용하는 TX52 등의 방법을 적용한다고 알려져 있으나 TX54에 대한 금형설계 및 소성변형률 적용 데이터는 공정 know-how로 분류되어 있다. 잔류응력제거 처리의 해석적 연구로는 판재와 링롤재에 대해서는 인장 및 압축 소성변형에 적용에 대한 결과가 발표된 바 있으나 형 단조재의 경우에는 전무하다

As the behavior of the debris flow due to the torrential rains in mountain is affected by shear strength and rheological properties of the fine fraction in the ground, the evaluation of both properties is necessary to estimate the behavior of the debris flow. The objective of this study is to evaluate the shear strength and rheological properties using the direct shear apparatus. The direct shear tests are conducted for two kinds of fine-grained soil specimens, which are in dry state and liquid limit state. From the direct shear tests, shear strengths are measured according to the normal stresses applied on the specimens to evaluate the cohesion and internal friction angle. In addition, reversal shear tests are performed for the fine-grained soil specimens in liquid limit state according to the shear rate to evaluate the residual shear strength. The results of direct shear tests show that the specimen at the liquid limit state has lower internal friction angle and higher cohesion compared to the dry stated, and the residual friction angle and cohesion at the residual state are lower than those at the peak state. In the result of reversal shear test, the residual shear strength is directly proportional to the shear rate and viscosity is calculated as $73.60Pa{\cdot}s$. This study demonstrates that the direct shear apparatus can be effectively used for the evaluation of the shear strength and rheological properties of the fine-grained soils related with the debris flow.

Instrumented indentation technique is a new way to evaluate nondestructive such mechanical properties as flow properties, residual stress and fracture toughness by analyzing indentation load-depth curves. This study evaluated quantitatively the flow properties of steels and residual stress of weldments. First, flow properties can be evaluated by defining a representative stress and strain from analysis of deformation behavior beneath the rigid spherical indenter and the parameters obtained from instrumented indentation tests. For estimating residual stress, the deviatoric-stress part of the residual stress affects the indentation load-depth curve, so that by analyzing the difference between the residual-stress-induced indentation curve and residual-stress-free curve, the quantitative residual stress of the target region can be evaluated. The algorithm for flow property evaluation was verified by comparison with uniaxial tensile test and the residual stress evaluation model was compared to mechanical cutting and ED-XRD results.

The weathering of mudrock in the Pohang area is mainly caused by slaking and swelling when the mudrock is absorbed with water. In this regard, this paper chows the results of chemical analysis and the identification of rock-forming minerals from XRD. It also compares the slaking and swelling characteristics of mudrocks sampled from 3 different sites. The chief rock -forming minerals are the quartz, and the several types of clay minerals. The slake durability indices are ranged from 71% to 96%, and these values are closely related to the liquid limit of the powdered nock specimen. In a similar manner to the slaking characteristics the greatest values of the swelling pressure and the swelling strain were measured from the mudrock specimen with the highest value of liquid limit. The greatest measured values of the swelling pressure and the swelling strain are 9.4 kg 1 cm2 and 33.5% respectively. The residual sheer strength of mudrock decreases as the number of wet -diy cycles increases, and the residual strength at 5 cycles are measured to c,=0.24kg/cm2 and p,=28$^{\circ}$. The lowest residual strength is measured at the fresh rock -rock contact surface in the moist condition of which values are cr: 0 and n,: 21.5$^{\circ}$.

The effect of specimen geometry on the bending and tensile strengths of dissimilar joints ($\beta-Si_3N_4/S45C$) with copper interlayers was evaluated. The average bending strength of specimens with circular cross sections was higher than that of specimens with rectangular cross sections. The crack initiation stress ($\sigma_i$) was successfully determined by the acoustic emission (AE) method and was approximately 60~80% of the bending strength. The residual stresses near the interfaces on the ceramic side were measured by X-ray diffraction before conducting the bending test. The bending strength and the crack initiation stress decreased with an increase in the residual stresses. The effect of the bending strain component was evaluated by the tensile testing; the tensile strength decreased with an increase in the bending strain component and was approximately 80% of the bending strength.
