The lightness of components required in automobile and machinery industry is requiring high strength of components. In particular, manufacturing process and new materials development for solving the fatigue fracture problem attendant upon high strength of suspension of automobile are actively advanced. In this paper, the effect of compressive residual stress of spring steel(JISG SUP-9) by shot-peening on fatigue crack growth characteristics in high temperatures($100^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $180^{\circ}C$) was investigated with considering fracture mechanics. So, we can obtain followings. (1)Compressive residual stress decreases in high temperature, that is, with increasing temperature. (2)The effect of compressive residual stress on fatigue crack growth behavior in high temperature increases below $\Delta$K=17~19MPa (3)It was investigated by SEM that the constraint of compressive residual stress for plastic zone of fatigue crack tip was decreased in high temperature as compared with room temperature.

Poly(urethane-imide)s were prepared by reaction between crosslinkable endgroup containing soluble polyimide (PI) by chemical imidization and acrylate end-capped polyurethane (PU). Poly (amic acid) was prepared from 2,2'-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA) and 4,4'-oxydianiline (ODA) and then end-capped with maleic anhydride (MA). The PU prepolymers were prepared by the reaction of polycaprolactone diol, tolylene 2,4-diisocyanate and end-capped with hydroxyl ethyl acrylate. The effect of PU content on the residual stress behavior, morphology and thermal property was studied. The poly(urethane-imide)s were characterized by thin film stress analyzer (TFSA), XRD, TGA and DMTA. Low residual stress and slope in cooling curve were achieved by higher PU content. Compared to typical polyurethane, these polymers exhibited better thermal stability due to the presence of the imide groups. Finally the residual stress of poly(urethane-imide)s was strongly affected by the morphological structure.

In this study, to evaluate the shrinkage behavior of ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) under restrained condition, restrained shrinkage test was performed according to ring-test mostly used at home and abroad. Ring-test was performed with the various thicknesses and radii of inner steel ring to give different degree of restraint. Free shrinkage and tensile tests were carried out simultaneously to estimate the degree of restraint, stress relaxation, and shrinkage cracking potential. Test results indicated that the average steel strain and residual tensile stress were reduced as the thicker inner steel ring was used, whereas degree of restraint was increased. The steel strain, residual tensile stress and degree of restraint were hardly affected by the size of radius of inner ring. In the case of all ring specimens, shrinkage crack did not occur because the residual tensile stress was lower than the tensile strength. About 39~65% of the elastic shrinkage stress was relaxed by the sustained interface pressure, and the maximum relaxed stress was increased as the thicker inner ring was applied. Finally, the degree of restraint with age was predicted by performing non-linear regression analysis, and it was in good agreement with the test results.

This study investigates the crack growth behavior due to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) in the dissimilar metal butt weld of a reactor piping using Alloy 82/182. First, detailed finite element stress analyses were performed to predict the stress distribution of the dissimilar metal butt weld in which the hydrostatic and the normal operating loads as well as the weld residual stresses were considered to evaluate the stress redistribution due to mechanical loadings. Based on the stress distributions along the wall thickness of the dissimilar metal butt weld, the crack growth behavior of the postulated axial and circumferential cracks were predicted, from which the crack growth diagram due to PWSCC was proposed. The present results can be applied to predict the crack growth rate in the dissimilar metal butt weld of reactor piping due to PWSCC.

In this study, nonlinear analysis of steel plane frame was performed using the refined plastic hinge method of advanced analysis techniques. In deterioration of stiffness in plastic zone, influences by flexural bending, residual stress, geometrical non-linearity, and semi-rigid connection are considered. And also, further reduced tangent modulus was used for geometrical non-linearity, top and seat angle were chosen for semi-rigid connection. Furthermore, 3 parameter power model was used for moment-rotation behaviour of beam to column connection. The loading conditions are combined with axial and lateral force and the inverse triangle distribution of lateral and eight type of analytical models were used in analysis. The results of analyses were compared with semi-rigid and rigid connection on behaviour of numerical analysis models. And also, the behaviors of frame with changes of semi-rigidity were analyzed by using the results obtained from MIIDAS-GENw.

Experiments on steel-concrete interface are performed to investigate and determine the mechanical roles and properties of interface parameters. The intrinsic different nature of bonded and unbonded interfaces are addressed based on the experimental observations that were obtained from two types of tests considering bonded and unbonded interfaces. The unbonded tests are performed for the specimens that are in unbonded when the initially bonded specimens are tested first. Four cases of lateral confinements including pure slip, and low and medium levels of lateral pressure are taken into account to investigate the effects of lateral confinements on interface behavior. It is shown that the maximum shear strengths, the levels of residual strengths and the Mode II fracture energy release rates are linearly related to the confinement levels. Based on the experimental evidences obtained from this study, the values of interface parameters required in a steel-concrete interface constitutive model will be presented in the companion paper.

In this study, an investigation based on the superposition principle to predict residual stress redistribution caused by crack propagation itself initially through residual tensile stress field was performed by finite element method. The tendency in residual stress redistribution caused by crack propagation recognized both from the analytical results and experimental result was the residual stress concentration consecutively occurred in the vicinity of crack tip even the situation that the crack propagated to the region initially residual compressive stress existed. The software for the analysis is ABAQUS, which is a general purpose finite element package. The analytical method that attempt to take the plastic deformation at the crack tip due to tensile residual stress into the consideration of residual stress redistribution caused by crack propagation was proposed. The plastic zone size at the tip of fatigue crack and redistributed residual stresses were calculated by finite element method on the bases of the concept of Dugdale model. Comparing these analytical results with experimental results, it is verified that the residual stress redistribution caused by crack propagation can be predicted by finite element method with the proposed analytical method.

An efficient numerical method is developed to estimate the elasto-plastic post-buckling strength of space-framed structures. The inelastic ultimate strength of beam-columns and frames is evaluated by the parametric study. Applying the improved plastic hinge analysis that evaluate the gradual stiffness decrease effects due to spread of plasticity, elasto-plastic post-buckling behavior of steel frames is investigated considering the various residual stress distributions. Introducing the plastification parameter that represent pread of plasticity in the element and performing parametric study of equivalent element force and member idealization, finite-element solutions for the elasto-plastic analysis of space frames are compared with the results by plastic region analysis, shell elements and experimental results.

Recently the steel parts used at automobiles are required to be used under high stress more than ever before in need of the weight down. To achieve this requirement of a high strength steel, it must be necessary to decrease inclusion content and surface deject as like decarburization, surface roughness etc.. In this study, the surface conditions are measured to know tile influence on fatigue properties by two cases of shot peening of two-stage shot peening and single-stage shot peening. And for this study, three kinds of spring steel (JISG4081-SUP7,SAE 9254, DIN 50CrV4, ) are made. This study shows the outstanding improvement of fatigue properties at tire case of two-stage shot peening in the rotary bending fatigue test and this is assumed to be from (1) Decreasing the surface roughness (2) Unchanging the surface hardness (3) Increasing the compressive residual stress But, results also show fatigue failures originated at inclusion near surface, and this inclusion type is turned out to be a alumina of high hardness.

water cavitation peening(WCP)은 water jet 과정으로 인한 cavitation이 발생할 때, 금속표면 cavitation 현상에 의해 재료표면의 잔류응력과 경도 등의 물성을 변화시키게 되며, 그로 인해 생긴 잔류 응력으로 재료의 내구성 및 수명을 향상시키는 기술이다. 최근에는 water jet을 이용한 장치들이 건설 분야, 일반기계분야, 컷팅 공정, 분쇄 등 다양한 분야에서도 사용되고있다. 그러나 water jet을 이용한 peening은 소개 된지 20여년이 경과했음에도 불구하고 연구 및 개발 내용은 shot peening에 비해 아직 초기 단계이다. water cavitation peening은 기존의 피닝 방법의 단점을 보완 할 뿐만 아니라 환경적인 측면에서도 그 가치가 크다. 아직은 다른 peening 기법 보다 잔류압축응력 부가 측면에서 그 효과가 떨어지지만, water cavitation peening은 열에 영향을 받는 영역이 생성되지 않으며, 기계의 표면 가공을 하는 동안 어떤 미세한 먼지도 생성하지 않아 친환경적이다. 또한 복잡한 외형을 가지는 부품 및 내면에 적용성이 뛰어나고, 표면 정밀도 저하가 낮다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 조류발전용 블레이드의 재료로 사용하려는 동합금에 대하여 증류수 내에서 water cavitation peening 시간, 거리, 파형 등의 변수를 적용하여 최적 조건을 찾고, 다양한 전기화학적 실험을 실시하였으며, water cavitation peening 부의 부식특성을 평가 하였다. ASTM-G32 규정에 의거하여 압전효과를 용한 진동발생 장치(RB 111-CE)를 이용하여 동합금 표면에 water cavitation peening을 실시하고, 실험 후 표면의 손상거동을 관찰하기 위하여 3D현미경 및 전자주사현미경(SEM)을 사용하였다. 물성치 변화를 확인하기 위하여 SHIMADZU사의 HVM-2 Model의 비커스 경도기를 이용하여 표면 경도값을 측정하였다. 전기화학실험은 각 3회 이상 실시하였으며, Tafel 분석결과로 부식전류밀도와 부식전위의 평균, 부식전위를 알 수 있었고, 음분극 실험결과, 용존산소 환원반응에 의한 농도분극에서 수소가스발생에 의한 활성화 분극으로 진행되는 변곡점을 확일 할 수 있었다.
