In this study, we investigated the variations in welding residual stresses in dissimilar metal butt weld due to width of repair welding and re-distribution behaviors resulting from similar metal welding (SMW) and mechanical loading. To this end, detailed two-dimensional axi-symmetric finite element (FE) analyses were performed considering five different repair welding widths. Based on the FE results, we first evaluated the welding residual stress distributions in repair welding. We then investigated the re-distribution behaviors of the residual stresses due to SMW and mechanical loads. It is revealed that large tensile welding residual stresses take place in the inner surface and that its distribution is affected, provided repair welding width is larger than certain value. The welding residual stresses resulting from repair welding are remarkably reduced due to SMW and mechanical loading, regardless of the width of the repair welding.

This work intends to establish the reliability and fracture toughness $K_{IC}$ criterion of welded joints by EGW for high strength EH36-TMCP ultra thick plate. For this, firstly thermo elasto-plastic analysis has been carried out on two pass X-groove butt joint model to clarify the thermal and mechanical behaviour(residual stress, plastic strain, magnitude of stress and their distribution and production mechanism). Moreover, to establish fracture criterion, analysis of fracture toughness $K_{IC}$ has been performed under the notch machined and residual stress with the load condition on EGW welded joints. A quantitative fracture criterion for EGW welded joints is suggested by using $K_{IC}$.

Dependence of residual compressive stress of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films on relative humidity was investigated. Polymeric, graphitic and diamond-like carbon films were prepared by r.f.-PACVD using methane or benzene with the negative self bias voltage of the substrate ranging from -100 to -800 V. In-situ measurements of the residual stress were carried out in an environment chamber where the relative humidity was varied from 10％ to 90％. In dense DLC film of high residual compressive stress and hardness, we could not observe any change in the residual compressive stress with relative humidity. However, in the cases of graphitic and polymeric DLC films, abrupt change in the residual stress occurred by changing the relative humidity. The quantity of the stress change was inversely proportional to the film thickness, which means that the stress change with humidity is not due to the penetration of the water molecule into the film structure, but due to surface interaction between water molecules and film surface.

The compressive residual stress and fatigue behavior of shot peened alloy 600 under a high-temperature environment is investigated in this study. Alloy 600 is used in the main parts of nuclear power plants, and the compressive residual stress induced by the shot peening process is considered to prevent SCC (stress corrosion cracking). To obtain practical results, the fatigue characteristics and compressive residual stress are evaluated under the actual operating temperature of a domestic nuclear power plant, as well as a high-temperature environment. The experimental results show that the peening effects are valid at a high temperature lower than approximately $538^{\circ}C$, which is the threshold temperature. The fatigue life was maintained at temperatures lower than $538^{\circ}C$, and the compressive residual stress at $538^{\circ}C$ was 68.2% of that at room temperature. The present results are expected to be used to obtain basic safety and reliability data.

It has been known that tensile residual stresses occurring by the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch between fiber and matrix is a cause of the weak strength of metal matrix composites(MMCs). In order to solve this problem, TiNi alloy fiber was used as a reinforced material in TiNi/A16001 shape memory alloy composite in this study. TiNi alloy fiber improves the tensile strength of the composite by causing compressive residual stress in matrix on the basis of its shape memory effect. Pre-strain was imposed to generate the compressive residual stresses inside the TiNi/A16001 shape memory alloy composites. AE technique was used to quantify the microscopic damage behavior of the composite at high temperature. The effect of applied pre-strains on the AE behavior was also evaluated.

The size and distribution of welding residual stress and welding deformation in welding structures have an effect on various sorts of damage like brittle failure, fatigue failure and stress corrosion cracking. So, research for this problem is necessary continuously. In this study, non-destructive technique using laser electronic speckle pattern interferometry, plate of welding specimen according to the external load on the entire behavior of residual stress are presented measurement techniques. Once, welding specimen force tensile loading, using electronic speckle pattern interferometry is measured. welding specimen of base metal and weld zone measure strain from measured result, this using measure elastic modulus. In this study, electronic speckle pattern interferometry use weld zone and base metal parts of the strain differences using were presented in residual stress calculated value, This residual stress value were calculated by numerical calculation. Consequently, weld zone of modulus high approximately 3.7 fold beside base metal and this measured approximately 8.46 MPa.

For the fracture mechanics analysis of cracks in welds of dissimilar steels, residual stress analysis and fracture analysis must be performed simultaneously. The standard definition of the J -integral leads to a path dependent value in the presence of a residual stress field. And unlike cracks in homogeneous materials, a bimaterial interface crack always induces both opening and shearing modes of stress in the vicinity of the crack tip. Therefore, it is necessary to develope a path independent J-integral definition for a crack in a residual stress field generated by welding of dissimilar steels. This paper addresses the modification of the Rice-J-integral to produce a path independent J -integral when residual stresses due to welding of dissimilar steels and external forces are present. The residual stress problem is treated as an initial strain problem and the J-integral proposed for this class of problems is used. And a program which can evaluate the J -integral for a crack in a weld of dissimialr steels is developed using proposed J integral definition.

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.

Due to recent changes in living conditions, people who suffer from vascular disease have been increasing. As a result, several kinds of procedures to treat diseases of the blood vessels are being carried out and the epidemiological analysis and interpretation is needed. In this paper, the mechanical behavior of blood vessels based on hyperelastic model were evaluated. The stress distributions in the arterial walls subjected to both normal blood pressure and high blood pressure are studied along with different opening angles representing as the effect of the residual stress. As a result, when applied to residual stress effects in blood vessels to act maximum stress compared to as the absence of residual stress effect about 50% stresses can be reduced. When high blood pressure was the normal blood pressure acting on the blood vessel wall that twice stress can be confirmed.
