In the present study, crack initiation criteria, static failure and tensile mode fatigue behavior for a rail steel are evaluated to assure the railway vehicle's safety. The transverse fissure, which is the most critical damage in the rail, is initiated by the maximum shear stress and its location is subsurface. In addition, the possibility of transition from the shear mode to the mixed mode increases with increasing the length of subsurface crack. Because of the brittleness by the welding, the fracture toughness of the welded part is lower than of the base metal. For low ${\Delta}K$, the stage II fatigue crack growth rates of the welded part is slower than of the base metal but, for high ${\Delta}K$, this different behavior for fatigue crack growth rate is nearly diminished. These trends are more remarkable for low stress ratio, R=0.1. It is believed that this behavior is caused by the change of the microstructure which that of the welded part is coarser than of base metal.

An exprimental research has been carried out to find the intermittent flow pattern in the transition region of a turbulent round jet in order to elucidate detailed turbulence structure and to accumulate basic data necessary for computational turbulence modelling. Turbulent signals were processed digitally to obtain conventional or conditional velocity components. The high-order conditional correlations obtained in this study showed similar trends as those of other free shear flows. It was found that the non-turbulent fluid contributes negligibly to the turbulent kinetic energy production and its diffusive transport and that the diffusion by bulk convection has the same order of magnitude as the gradient diffusion in the free boundary region. The statistical analyses such as flatness factor, skewness factor and probability density functions of turbulent and non-turbulent zone durations have also been performed.

액체금속로는 기존의 가압경수로와는 달리 55$0^{\circ}C$ 정도의 고온에서 운전이 되므로 고온 열응력이 중요한 문제로 대두되며 따라서 고은에서의 크립(Creep) 변형, 반복되는 기동과 정지 등으로 인한 되풀이 소성변형, 라체팅(Ratchetting), 크립과 소성의 상호작용 및 크립과 피로의 상호작용 등의 평가에 대한 기술 확립과 고온구조물에 대한 우리의 독자적인 설계방법을 개발하는 것이 필요하다 본 연구에서는 범용 유한요소해석코드인 ABAQUS의 축대칭 요소를 이용해서 액체 금속로 원자로용기와 이에 부착된 열소매(Thermal sleeve)를 Y-형태의 구조물로 모델링하여 반복되는 열천이하중에 대한 비탄성 구조해석을 수행하고 크립효과에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 해석결과 액체금속로와 같은 고온구조물에 대하여 반복 열천이 하중과 고온 지속시간이 유발하는 크립효과가 크게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

초전도 기기에 사용되는 고체 절연재료는 초전도 상태에서 상전도 상태로 천이시에 발생하는 임펄스 전압의 반복과전과 대전류에 의한 전자응력하에서 그 절연 성능이 충분히 발휘되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 초전도 기기의 절연재료로 유력시되고 있는 결정성 PET에 임펄스 전압이 연속 과전될 때, 이 재료의 압축응력하에서의 절연강도특성에 미치는 연속과전의 효과를 검토하였다. 그 결과에 의하면 PET에 호모전하가 주입되면 임펄스 절연강도가 헤테로 전하주입시 보다 약 4MV/cm정도 높다. 한편, PET에 전하주입의 효과를 억제시킨 임펄스 진성절연강도는 압축응력의 증가와 함께 증가하여 최대치에 도달한 후 점차 감소하며 직류 절연강도 및 호모전하 주입시의 임펄스 절연강도보다 낮다.

Miniaturized specimen technology is useful to characterize the mechanical behavior using a minimum volume of material, because it is almost impossible to sample the conventional specimen for the fracture toughness test without damage to equipment. Test material was 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel which was widely used for turbine rotor material. Two kinds of miniaturized impact specimens were prepared, i.e., miniaturized specimen with side groove and without side groove. The correlation between ductile brittle transition temperature(DBTT) of full size impact specimen and that of miniaturized impact specimen was made. The characteristics of miniaturized impact specimens technique as well as fracture stress were discussed. Finally, we concluded that the characteristics of fracture stress change on aging time were similar to that of DBTT.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal embrittlement and the mechanical properties of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel aged at high temperature and stress for 250 hours. Original, aged artificially material were tested to obtain the hardness and impact absorbed energy. Hardness and impact absorbed energy decreased with the increasing aging time. The carbide morphology with the thermal embrittlement was found to contribute to the mechanical property change by X-Ray diffraction method.

There have been many studies on the two dimensional thermo-elasto-plastic analysis in welding process, mostly from viewpoint of residual stresses. In this study, the temperature distribution, transient thermal stress, and angular distortion during bead-on-plate gas metal arc welding of rectangular plates were analyzed by using the finite element method. A nonlinear heat transfer analysis was first performed by taking account of the temperature-dependent material properties and convection heat losses on the surface. This was followed by a thermo-elasto-plastic stresses and distortion analysis that incorporates the constrained boundary condition of the two dimensional solution domain to get the three dimensional size effect of the plate. The constrained boundary conditions adopted in this study were the constant displacement condition over the whole two dimensional section for axial movement in the welding direction, and the force boundary condition for rotational movementof the domain around the axis of the welding direction. It could be revealed that the theoretical predictions of the angular distortion have an improved agreement with the experimentally obtained data presented in the previous study.

In this paper, theory of fracture mechanics for the pressurized thermal shock is investigated and numerical procedure for the evaluation of the pressure vessel under pressurized thermal shock is developed. For the given material properties, transient history such as temperature and pressure, and postulated flaw, the stress distribution is obtained to calculate stress intensities for a wide range of assumed crack sizes. The stress intensities are compared with the material fracture toughness values corresponding to the chemical compositions and the distribution of the nil ductility transition temperature, to determine the crack growth during the transient. Plant-specific calculations have been performed for several transients and the evaluation results are discussed.
