This study was to evaluate the stress distributions of prefabricated, customized abutments and fixtures according to their material and shape by three-dimensional finite element analysis. And to investigate the fatigue life and fracture characteristics. Mandibular models were fabricated by reconstruction of the CT scan of patients with normal occlusion. A total of six finite element models were designed, a load of 100 N was applied on the buccal cusps vertically, and 30 degree obliquely. 10 specimens each were fabricated for the more clinically widely used 4 type abutments and were loaded according to ISO 14801. Differences in stress distribution patterns were not found according to the materials of the abutments and fixtures. But a slight difference in the stress level was detected. Customized abutment groups showed lower crown stress levels. One-piece zirconia implant showed the lowest bone stress levels. In the fatigue test, highest values were measured in group 7. Prefabricated abutments showed less variation of fatigue life (P<0.05). Use of customized abutments can improve the fracture resistance of restorations. Especially, use of customized zirconia abutments reinforced by titanium screw connecting parts is recommended.

An experimental study for a crane hook was performed to investigate the stress distribution along a certain line where the maximum and minimum stresses to be developed. On this line, the isoclinic fringe and/or principal stress direction is constant. The crane hook was modeled into a 2-dimensional plate made of urethane rubber called 'Photoflex' The Photoflex is very sensitive to a load and has low photoelastic fringe constant. The Tardy compensation method with the fringe sharpening process and the 4-step phase shifting method, was used for the photoelastic technique. Experimental results by photoelasticity were compared with the calculated stresses from the simple curved beam theory and tile finite element analysis. Ail the results were close to each other.

Magnetic inductive probe was designed and assembled for sensing the residual stress developed in the ferromagnetic thin sheet. The residual stress measurement system with this probe could resolve the residual stresses developed in the sheet in terms of principal stress orientation, and magnitude of the principal stress. It was consumed that the obtained probe output voltage from the qualified ferromagnetic Fe-42Ni lead frame sheet and quality-rejected sheet is effectively determined using the developed device. The lead frame sheet which has accumulated a high level of residual stress always showed a distinctive stress distribution and magnitude compared with those of qualified lead frame sheet. Those differences were well resolved as functions of input current or used frequency.

1) 수치해석 결과, 운용압력으로 인한 엘보우에서의 응력은 재료의 강도에 비해 파손을 발생시 키기에는 상대적으로 작았고, 오히려 온도차에 의한 열응력이 내압에 의한 응력보다 매우 컸다. 즉 축방향 열응력은 운용압력에 의한 것보다 두배 더 크게 나타났다. 2) 파면의 육안 검사 결과, 급격한 파손은 취성 벽개 파괴로 인한 것으로 추측된다. 3) 시험 결과 균열이 시작하여 임계 크기로 진전한 부위인 K사에서 만든 엘보우는 S사에서 만든 것보다 훨씬 더 취성적임을 보여 주었다. 4) 임계 균열크기를 계산하기 위해 파괴 역학적 해석을 사용하는데 그 결과는 파손된 면에서 관 찰한 실제 균열 크기와 상당히 일치하였다. 5) 유사한 사고를 방지하기 위하여, 플랜트를 가동하는 동안 계속적으로 파괴 역학적 개념을 적 용해야 한다. 또한 운용전과 운용중에 잘 준비된 비파괴검사법을 사용하여야 한다.

Disturbed and undisturbed decomposed granite soils with different weathering degrees were extracted and analyzed through a series of tests (CD test, constant P test, etc.) to assess their dilatancy characteristics. Here, dilatancy refers to the volume change that takes place during shearing. As a result, the decomposed granite soil dilatancy impact increased the mean effective stress while concurrently lowering the water content in drained shear tests. In the case of undisturbed decomposed granite soil, which has a lower weathering degree, the water content increased at specific limits during the shearing process. A linear relationship of ${\Delta}V_d/V_1=D{\cdot}(({\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_3)-{\sigma}_c)/{{\sigma}_m}^{\prime}$ forms between shearing-induced volume change and principal stress variance.

원자력 발전소의 안전성 보장 및 신뢰성 향상을 위하여 시운전 단계에서 원자력 발전소내 안전등급에 해당하는 배관계통의 상태 확인을 위하여 각종시험을 하도록 되어있다. 특히 새로운 설계기념, 크기 또는 용량을 갖는 원자로 모델에 대해서는 필수적으로 건전성 평가를 하게 되었다. 이를 위해 발전소 건설기간에 시행하는 고온 기능시험 중에 원자로 주변 주요 시스템인 원자로 냉각재 루프 계통에 대한 건전성 확인을 위해 압전형 고온 가속도 센서를 이용하여 정상운전상태의 진동을 측정하여 시스템 진동거동을 규명하였다. 배관시스템의 일상운전상태는 유체의 흐름과 기기운전이 일정한 정상상태와 펌프의 기동 또는 정지 및 밸브의 급격한 개폐등으로 발생하는 과도상태로 나눌 수 있다. 따라서 두 가지 상태의 진동을 측정해야 한다. 배관계통은 정상운전 상태로 설계수명을 유지할 수 있어야 하므로 정상진도잉 최소화 되어야 한다. 진동 평가기준은 배관재질의 응력(S/N 커브) 곡선을 참조하여 설계수명내에 손상이 일어나지 않도록 재료의 허용응력을 산정하고 이를 진동변위로 환산하여 정한 것이며 이 값에 측정 데이타를 비교하여 1차계통 배관의 건전성을 확인하였다.

Effects of two-step aging treatment on the stress corrosion cracking(SCC) resistance of 7050 Al alloy were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, electrical conductivity measurement and stress corrosion facter(SCF) evaluation. It was found that η', principal hardening phase, transformed to η during over aging above maximum hardness, and SCC resistance was improved by increasing of the size and interspacing of η particles in matrix and grain boundary. The electrical conductivity increased with aging time, but SCF decreased due to the decrease of yield strength. This results mean increase of SCC resistance The optimum two-step aging condition in forged 7050 Al alloy was to be first aged at $120^{\circ}C$ for 6h and then finally aged at $175^{\circ}C$ for 12h.

This study entailed an investigation of a tensile stress measurement method for prestressed concrete (PSC) tendons by utilizing external magnetization. The target of this study are PS structures that have been constructed and in use. An optimal external magnetization based elasto-magnetic (EM) sensor was designed using finite element analysis considering various factors, such as coil arrangement and size, that could influence the PS tendons inside the PSC girder. The residual tensile stress resulting from the external magnetization of the girder was then determined. Further, theoretical verification was performed using the numerical and material data used in the finite element analysis for sensor design. The calculated values of strength of magnetization at the target location were matched with the finite element analysis results. Thus, the designed sensor and the feasibility of magnetizing the tendons inside the PSC I-girder using an EM sensor were validated.

A major stress determining the remaining life of the tube in feedwater heater of fossil fuel power plant is hoop stress by the internal pressure. However, thermal stress due to temperature difference across the wall thickness also contributed to reduce the remaining life of the tube. Therefore, thermal loading must be considered even though the contribution of internal pressure loading to the stresses of the tube was known to be much higher than that of the thermal loading. In this study, thermal stress of the tubes in the de-superheating zone was estimated, which was generated due to the temperature difference across the tube thickness. Analytic equations were shown for determining the hoop stress and the radial stress of the tube with uniform thinning and for the temperature across the tube thickness. Accuracy and effectiveness of the analytic equations for the stresses were verified by comparing the results obtained by the analytic equations with those obtained from finite element analysis. Using finite element analysis, the stresses for eccentric thinning were also determined. The effect of heat transfer coefficient on thermal stress was investigated using series of finite element analyses with various values of heat transfer coefficient for both inner and outer surface of the tube. It was shown that the effect of heat transfer coefficient at outer surface was larger than that of heat transfer coefficient at inner surface on the thermal stress of the tube. Also, the hoop stress was larger than the radial stress for both cases of uniformly and eccentrically thinned tubes when the thermal loading was only considered without internal pressure loading.

이 논평에서는 수치해석에 관련된 국내의 난류모델의 연구현황을 살펴보았다. 국내에서 연구가 많이 되었던 혼합거리모델, R, .epsilon. 2차방정식모델, 대수응력모델의 연구현황을 주로 살펴 보았다. 국내에서는 아직 연구인력이 적기 때문에 꼭 필요한 부분이지만 연구가 되지 않은 부 분이 많았으며 현재 연구가 되고 있는 부분도 그 연구량이 적은 형편이다. 앞으로 전산유체역 학에 의해 열유체기계내의 복잡한 난류유동을 해석하여 기계설계와 운전을 개선하는데 활용하기 위해서는 더욱 많은 연구가 요구된다. 그 중에서 특히 더 관심을 갖고 연구될 분야를 열거 해 보면 (1) 벽면부근의 저 레이놀즈 R, .epsilon. 방정식모델과 대수응력모델에 관한 연구 (2) 복잡한 3차원유동을 정확히 해석할 난류모델 개발에 관한 연구 (3) 복잡한 난류유동에서 열전 달모델에 관한 연구 (4) 레이놀즈응력모델에 관한 연구 (5) Large Eddy Simulation에 관한 연구를 들 수 있다. 이들 연구에서는 난류모델의 물리적 의미에 관한 이론적 연구와 이 모델들 을 여러 경우의 실제유동에 적용하여 검증하는 연구가 병행되어야 할 것이다.
