The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of loading variables on fatigue crack opening behavior, using structural steel SS41. To use various stress ratios, three kinds of the methods varying stress ratio were used; .DELTA.P const., P$_{max}$ const., and P$_{min}$ const.. To measure the opening load, the direct measuring method which measures the distance between two micro indentations 20 .mu.m behind crack tip and the elastic compliance method were used. As the results of present study, the following conclusions are obtained. First, using the direct measuring method, it was possible to measure the COD at any location behind crack tip. Second, as measuring point becomes farther from crack tip, opening load becomes smaller. Third, the acceleration of da/dN near notch is due to crack opening behavior. Finally, opening ratio is a function of not only R, but .DELTA.K.K.K.

본 연구에서는 SM20C를 모재로 하여 입경의 크기가 다른 3종의 복합조직강을 제작 동일한 분위기에서 저 및 고사이클 전영역에 걸쳐 피로특성을 검토하고져 한다. 제일보는 그 중 저사이클특성에 대한 보고이다. 일반적으로 저사이클 피로현상은 재 료가 탄소성 상태하에서 전위, 미소크랙, 보이드(void) 등의 인자가 복합적으로 작용 하여 발생함으로 변형률속도, 제어파형, 온도, 시험방법 및 분위기에 따라 많은 영향 을 받는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 두가지 실험방법을 사용, 응력-변형율거동을 검토 복합조직강의 피로특성과 입경크기가 피로거동 및 강도에 미치는 영향을 비교 고찰하 였다.

주편은 1차 냉각 지역인 수냉 몰드를 통과한 후, 2차 냉각 지역에서 guide roll, pinch roll 그리고 driven roll등에 의해 반복적인 압축하중을 받고 있으며, roll과 roll사이에서는 철정압에 의한 주편 bulging 현상이 발생하고 주편의 표면은 인장응력을 받게 된다. 특히 연속주조 중 주편의 변형기구가 단순 탄소성 변형 이 아닌 creep에 의한 변형임을 고려할 때, 2차 냉각 지역에서 주편의 표면은 전술한 압축 및 인장변형 이 반복되는 저주기 고온 피로 환경을 거침을 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄소함량에 따른 주편의 bulging시의 크랙 발생에 미치는 저주기 고온 피로의 효과를 조사하였다. 또한, 용체화 처리 온도에서 시험 온도까지의 냉각 속도의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 1$^{\circ}C$/s 및 1$0^{\circ}C$/s로 냉각 속도를 변화시켜 열간 연성 곡선을 작성하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 저탄소강의 경우는 저주기 피로의 영향이 관찰되지 않았으며, 중탄소강의 경우, 저온에서는 저주기 피로로 인해 열간 연성이 증가하였으나, 고온에서는 변형유기 페라이트의 생성으로 인해 열간 연성 이 감소하였다. 고탄소강의 경우는 저주기 피로로 인하여 열간 연성이 모든 온도 구간에서 증가하였다. 또한 용체화 처리후 시험 온도까지의 냉각 속도가 감소함에 따라 열간 연성이 증가하였는데, 이는 입 계 석출물의 조대화로 인해 열간 연성이 증가하는 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, Fatigue behavior of laser weldment in heterogeneous materials was investigated. Fatigue strength test and fatigue crack propagation test were performed for specimens with laser weldment in heterogeneous materials, and hardness test was performed. From the fatigue strength test. it was observed that the difference of strength between heterogeneous materials had eflect on crack initiation position and fatigue limit. From the fatigue crack propagation test. it was observed that fatigue behavior of laser weldment in heterogeneous materials is different from that in same materials. The difference of strength between heterogeneous materials and laser weldment had effect on fatigue crack propagation rate.

Macrostructural characteristic of the transverse cracks and fatigue behavior were studied for EH 32 TMCP 50mm thick plate welded with FACW under the variation in preheat and interpass temperatures. Transverse cracks were detected in specimen welded with preheat and interpass temperature below $30^{\circ}C$, but cracks were not detected in the specimens welded with preheat and interpass temperatures at the range of $100~120^{\circ}C$.C. The location of crack formation was found to strongly depend upon the thickness of weld layers as regard to the plate thickness.

CFRP is the composite material manufactured by the hybrid resin on the basis of carbon fiber. As this material has the high specific strength and the light weight, it has been widely used at various fields. Particularly, the unidirectional carbon fiber can be applied with the layer angle. CFRP made with layer angle has the strength higher than with no layer angle. In this paper, the property of crack growth due to each layer angle was investigated on the crack propagation and fracture behavior of the CFRP compact tension specimen due to the change of layer angle. The value of maximum stress is shown to be decreased and the crack propagation is slowed down as the layer angle is increased. But the limit according to the layer angle is shown as the stress is increased again from the base point of the layer angle of $60^{\circ}$. This study result is thought to be utilized with the data which verify the probability of fatigue fracture when the defect inside the structure at using CFRP of mechanical structure happens.

We measured the mechanical and thermal properties of four types of cast irons used for manufacturing the brake discs of railway vehicles. It was found that these properties could be controlled by varying the composition of Ni, Cr, and Mo. Thermal fatigue tests were carried out by using a thermal fatigue tester in which thermal cycles could be controlled. Thermal crack initiation and propagation were measured on cylindrical specimens. Finally, we simulated the thermal fatigue test procedure by finite element analysis and calculated the thermal fatigue lifetimes by Manson-Coffin's equation and the maximum principal strain. The estimated thermal fatigue lifetimes corresponded to the measured lifetimes when the total crack length was $40{\mu}m{\sim}1mm$.

Mobile products, such as cellular phones, PDA and notebook, are subjected to many different mechanical loads, which include bending, twisting, impact shock and vibration. In this study, a cyclic bending test of the BGA package was performed to evaluate the fatigue life. Special bending tester, which was suitable for electronic package, was developed using an electromagnetic actuator. A nonlinear finite element model was used to simulate the mechanical bending deformation of solder joint in BGA packages. The fatigue life of lead-free (95.5Sn4.0Ag0.5Cu) solder joints was compared with that of lead-contained (63Sn37Pb). When the applied load to the specimen is small, the lead-free solder has longer fatigue life than lead-contained solder. The fatigue crack is initialized at the exterior solder joints and is propagated into the inner solder joints.

SB41 material is welded automatically and is investigated some effects of the welding residual stress in the growth and propagation of fatigue crack, so as to study the fatigue behaviour in the welding residual stress field. The summarized results are as follows; 1) In case of the load amplitude is constant, as the stress ratio is changing to 0.1, 0.33 and 0.5 the propagation life is constant but the growth life decreases. And than, when maximum load or minimum load is constant as the stress ratio increases the growth life and propagation life. 2) It was shown that fatigue crack propagation ratio da/dN was almost constant regardless of the stress ratio change at constant load amplitude and that the larger stress ratio, the slower was the fatigue crack propagation ratio. 3) The opening ratio U is influenced by $K_max$ but it isn't only the function of $K_max$ because data range is very large. 4) The fatigue life of the specimens on tensile compressive residual stress field was decreased and increased respectably more than that of the base metal.

Experimental research has been carried out to investigate the characteristics of the fatigue crack initiation and propagation behavior of Tailor Welded Blank(TB) sheet used for vehicle body. We used three types of specimens which were machined of the same base metal: one is 1.4mm thick, another is 1.6mm thick, and the third(TB specimen) is laser-welded of two specimens(1.4mm and 1.6mm thick ones). The results of tensile and hardness test indicate that the yield strength of the TB specimen is the highest, and the hardness around welding bead is higher than that of base metal. Fatigue strength and fatigue limit of the TB specimen are much superior to those of the base metal up to $10^6$ cycles. The fatigue crack propagation of the heat-affected zone of the TB specimen is slower than that of the base metal. Welding bead has the fastest crack Propagation in the low stress intensity factor range$(\DeltaK)$ region, but the slowest in the high $\DeltaK$ region. The fatigue propagation characteristic of the TB specimen is relatively stable in comparison with that of the base metal in the high ${\Delta}K$ region around over $28MPa\sqrt{m}$.
