The purposes of this study is to verify the fracture characteristic of steel which is manufactured in Korea, subjected to cyclic loading. This investigation deals with the low cycle fatigue behavior of longitudinal reinforcement in reinforced concrete bridge substructure (piles and columns of piers). Eighty-one specimens of longitudinal reinforcement were tested under axial strain controlled reversed cyclic tests with strain amplitudes. The selected test variables are ratio of tension strain to compression strain, yield stress of longitudinal reinforcement, ratio of diameter of longitudinal steel to clear length of longitudinal steel, size of longitudinal steel and strain amplitudes. Low cycle fatigue behavior and low-cycle fatigue life are investigated and discussed in this paper.

이재결합재의 피로시험에서 나타나는 피로균열성정거동은, 역시 균열선단이 결합경계의 근방에 있거나 경계상에 있을 때의 것이 균질재료에서의, 거동과 비교.검토되어야겠다. 이재결합재를 여기에서는 탄성계수 E 값이 동일(또는 근접)한 이재간의 결합재와, E 값이 현저히 다른 이재 간의 결합재로 나누어 그 피로시험예를 검토해 나가기로 하겠다. 또한 전술한 바와 같이 이재 결합재에 의한 피로시험 그 자체의 난전으로 말미암아 파괴역학적으로 해석된 이재결합재피로 균열거동연구보고가 극히 부진함에 비추어 여기에서는 주로 필자가 발효한 연구보고들을 바탕 으로 해서 검토해 나가기로 하겠다.

In the recent construction industry, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers(CFRPs) have been highly considered as innovative strengthening materials for civil structures due to their superior material properties. This paper is to offer design data and strengthening efficiency of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with CFRP Plate. Static tests were carried out to evaluate failure modes and strengthening capacity. Displacements and strains of steel and CFRP plates were obtained and analyzed through a series of fatigue tests. Also, Those evaluated the energy dissipation. Results of the tests showed increase in strengthening ratios caused debonding failure at the end of beams. For the beams wrapped with CFRP sheets around the end of the plates, debonding failure mode that was induced from flexural cracks was indicated. Through the fatigue tests, it was observed that displacements, strains of steel and CFRP plates converged into certain values. It is also proved that the beams strengthened with CFRP plates are able to resist fatigue loading under serviceability.

This paper dealt with the effect of the ratios N2 to H2 gas on the corrosion fatigue failure behavior of ion-nitrided SM45C steel specimens. The specimens were water cooled after ion-nitriding at 500.deg. C for 3hrs in 5 Torr, 0.8N$_{2}$ and 0.5N$_{2}$ atmospheres. As the nitrogen concentration increases, the higher compressive residual stresses developed in the surface layer and the depth of nitrided layer increased, which in turn gave rise to increases in fatigue strength and corrosion fatigue life. In the region less than 1.5 * 10$^{5}$ cycles, fatigue failure initiated at the brittle nitrided case, whereas in the region higher than 1.5 * 10$^{5}$ cycles crack initiated from the non-metallic inclusions in the subsurface. The initiation of corrosion fatigue failure was mainly attributed to pitting of case hardened surface layer.

The objective of this study is to identify the quantitative relationships among the important physical factors associated with failure of steel members under strong seismic excitations through very low-cycle fatigue tests. Very low-cycle fatigue is meant to be structural fatigue causing cracks and rupture in about 5~30 cycle ranges. The angle specimen was subjected to repeated axial Ioad after undergoing inelastic buckling. The test results reveal that the energy absorption capacities vary heavily with the history of loading and the failure mode. The maximum values of residual local strain at the initiation of a visible crack due to the very low-cycle fatigue were of the order of 25~40%, regardless of loading patterns, deflection modes, and width-to-thickness ratios.

The purpose of this work is to obtain fundamental data about fatigue crack detection of the welded exhaust flange by using the AE method. The acoustic emission method as a nondestructive evaluation is one of high technical test for realtime monitoring in the dangerous industry fields. Signal analysis of both AE sensor and accelerometer for fatigue crack failure are presented in this paper.

영광 3, 4호기에 사용되고 있는 원전 압력용기용 SA-508 IH 강의 미세구조 및 상온 피로균 열성장 특성을 고찰하였다. 본 강재의 미세구조, 석출물 분포 및 형상을 투과전자현미경을 통하여 관찰하였으며 임계영역에서의 거동 및 균열닫힘에 주목하여 피로균열성장 특성을 연구하였다. 다양한 형태의 (Fe, MR)$_3$C 세멘타이트 및 Mo$_2$C 석출물이 입계, 래스경계면 및 입내에 분포되고 있음을 확인하였다. Paris 영역에서의 피로균열성장 속도는 ASME 기준선과 유사하였으며, 임계 영역에서는 일반적인 저합금강의 경우보다 다소 낮게 나타났다. 파면조사 결과 입내 연성파괴현상이 전 $\Delta$K 영역에서 나타나고 있으며, $\Delta$K$_{th}$ 부터 $\Delta$K가 12 Mpa√m 영역에서는 입계파괴 및 입내 평활면이 관찰되었다.

The fatigue crack propagation properties and fatigue life of two kinds of Al body panel for automobile were examined experimentally by using the plate specimen and the single spot welding specimen. The fatigue limit of spot welding specimens was lower than that of a plate specimen. The fatigue limit was similar in two kinds of spot welding specimen. The shape and size of crack propagation were observed and measured on beach mark of fracture surface. The crack propagation of surface crack specimen showed almost same tendency to that of a thick plate as almost semi-elliptical. In spot welding specimen, the fatigue crack occurred in inside surface of nugget area was almost semi-elliptical. The crack growth rate can be explained using equation of stress intensity factors.

Corrugated steel plate structure, which is built by assembling corrugated steel plate segments with bolts on site and filling the surroundings with quality soil, is widely used for buried structures as a eco-corridors, small bridges, and closed conduits. This experimental study is dealt with the static and fatigue performance of bolt connected corrugated steel plates under flexural loading. The experimental variables to verify the fatigue performance are bolt diameters and detailing of connection such as washer and the corrugation dimension of specimens has a $400{\times}150$ mm. The experimental ultimate strength of specimens under static loading was higher than the theoretical strength and all specimen failed by a bearing and tearing failure of bolt hole of upper plate. Therefore, a fatigue tests of specimens had 6.0mm and 7.0mm thickness was conducted in which the load range was up to 209kN and 516kN, respectively. From the fatigue test, failure patterns are changed from plate bearing and tearing which is a typical failure pattern of static failure to a bearing failure of plate and shear failure of bolt, and experimental fatigue limit at $2{\times}10^6$cycles is about 85MPa.
