실제 작용하는 하중상태는 요소의 형상과 작용하중의 복잡성 때문에 혼합모드 하중상태를 나타낸다. 또한 혼합모드 피로균열은 전파과정 동안 부재의 구속형상이나 외부 작용하중의 급격한 변화에 의해서도 영향 받게 된다. 이로 인하여 피로균열은 균열선단에서 지속적이면서 급격한 응력 재분배의 상태를 경험한다. 그러므로 다양한 응력 재분배 상태에서의 혼합모드 피로균열에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 응력 재분배상태 하에서 나타나는 혼합모드 피로균열의 전파거동에 대한 특징이 실험적으로 고찰되었다.(중략)

본 연구는 횡방향 TIG 용접된 Al6013-T4 알루미늄 합금 용접부의 피로균열전파거동에 미치는 용접후열처리(PWHT)의 영향을 조사하는 것이 주목적이다. 기초적으로 인장시험, 경도 및 미세조직이 조사되었으며, 피로균열전파거동을 고찰하기 위한 피로 시험은 모두 중앙균열인장(CCT) 시험편에 대하여 수행되었다. T82열처리에 있어서 시효시간은 피로균열전파율, 인장강도 및 경도에 대단히 민감함을 나타내었으며, 모재와 열영향부재의 경우가 용접재보다 기계적 성질이 우수하였다. 횡방향 TIG 용접한 Al6013-T4 시험재의 용접후열처리 조건에 따라서 피로균열전파 저항에는 차이가 나타났으며, 본 실험의 조건하에서 24시간 인공시효 PWHT-82 시험편이 피로균열전파 저항이 가장 우수한 결과를 나타내었다.

산업의 발달과 더불어 수송기기를 포함한 각종 구조물의 경량화에 따라 피로파괴에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 과거에는 피로균열생성과 피로균열전파를 구분하지 않는 S-N (stress-cycles to failure) 피로 개념을 이용하여 구조재의 피로 거동을 이해하고자 하였다. 그러나 최근에는 모든 구조물에는 균열이 존재한다는 가정에서 시작된 파괴역학(fracture mechanics)에 기초한 피로균열성장 개념을 이용하여 피로에 대한 저항성이 큰 구조재를 개발하고 있으며, 구조물의 피로수명을 예측하고 있다. 본 발표에서는 미세조직, 인장특성, 용접이나 부식 환경 등이 금속의 피로 및 피로균열성장(fatigue crack propagation)에 미치는 영향에 대한 논하고자 한다.

After the concept of fracture mechanics was applied to fatigue crack propagation by Paris. Paris' law is widely used to predict fatigue crack growth behavior. Since Elber proposed the effective stress intensity factor(SIF) and showed a good agreement with experimental results using the proposed SIF, emphasis in crack propagation studies has been placed on measuring the effective stress range ratio. This paper proposes a numerical model to simulate the crack closure and propagation behaviour under various loading spectrum. The validity of the proposed model is checked by comparing with the Toyosada numerical solutions on the crack propagation behaviour. Important insights developed are summarized.

In this study, as a series of studies aimed at investigating the spatial randomness of fatigue crack growth for friction stir welded (FSWed) 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints, the fatigue crack growth behavior of FSWed 7075-T651 aluminum alloy joints was investigated for LT orientation specimens. Fatigue crack growth tests were conducted under constant stress intensity factor range (SIFR) control for 5 specimens of the FSWed 7075-T651 aluminum alloy, including base metal (BM), heat affected zone (HAZ), and weld metal (WM) specimens. The mean fatigue crack growth rate of WM specimens was found to be the highest, whereas that of HAZ and WM specimens was the lowest. Furthermore, the variability of fatigue crack growth rate was found to be the highest in WM specimens and lowest in BM specimens.

Fatigue crack propagation behavior and the fatigue life in-high performance steel were investigated by means of fatigue crack propagation tests under constant loading conditions of 'R=0.1 and f=0.1 Hz', 'R=0.3 and f=0.3 Hz', and 'R=0.5 and f=0.5 Hz' for the load ratio and frequency, respectively. A modified Forman model was developed to describe the fatigue crack propagation behavior for the conditions. The modified Forman model is applicable to all fatigue crack propagation regions I, II, and III by implementing the threshold stress intensity factor range and the effective stress intensity factor range caused by crack closure. The results show that predicted fatigue lives of Forman and modified Forman models were 8,814 and 12,292 cycles, respectively when the crack propagated approximately 5.0 mm and the load ratio and frequency were both 0.1. Comparison of the test results indicates that the modified Forman model showed much more effective fatigue crack propagation behavior in high-performance steel.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of crack orientation on fatigue crack growth behavior in friction stir welded (FSWed) Al 7075-T651. Fatigue crack growth testing was conducted on compact tension (CT) specimens machined from the friction stir welds and the base metal under constant stress intensity factor range control. Tests were performed with the crack propagating nominally perpendicular to the weld line (termed the TL specimen) and the crack propagating in a parallel direction of the weld line (termed the LT specimen), and with three different constant stress intensity factor ranges. Both these specimen orientations were found to have a considerable effect on the fatigue crack growth behavior. Paris's law was adopted for the analysis of experimental results; the exponent m of the WM-LT specimen was determined to be 3.56, which was the largest value in this experimental conditions.

The primary aim of this paper is to evaluate the probabilistic fatigue crack propagation models using the residual of a random variable and to present the probabilistic model fit for the probabilistic fatigue crack growth behavior in Mg-Al-Zn alloys under maximum load conditions. The models used in this study were prepared by applying a random variable to empirical fatigue crack propagation models such as the Paris-Erdogan model, Walker model, Forman model, and modified Forman model. It was verified that the good models for describing the stochastic variation of the fatigue crack propagation behavior in Mg-Al-Zn alloys under maximum load conditions were the 'probabilistic Paris-Erdogan model' and 'probabilistic Walker model'. The influence of the maximum load conditions on the stochastic variation of fatigue crack growth is also considered.

Fatigue behavior of before-and-after penetration was examined experimentally using surface pre-cracked specimens of aluminium alloy 5083-0. The fatigue crack shape before penetration is almost semicircular, and the measured aspect ratio is larger than the value obtained by calculation using K values proposed by Newman-Raju. It is found that the crack growth behavior on the back side after penetration is unique and can be divided into three stages. By using a crack propagation rule in case of long surface crack, the change in crack shape after penetration can be evaluated quantitatively.
