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.

The development of a technique that can monitor the cracks, which is one of the typical types of damage, is necessary to secure the structural safety of elastically restrained cantilever-type beams with a tip mass that is used widely in infrastructure. Impedance techniques have been actively researched to detect cracks, and the cracks were estimated mainly by experimentally investigating the relationship between the crack and impedance signal. This study examined the correlation between the change in the impedance signals due to the crack, and the natural frequency obtained analytically. After updating the analysis model for the intact beam, the impedance signal was measured while gradually inflicting cracks in the cantilever-type beam, and the damage index was obtained. The results were compared with the natural frequencies calculated from the updated analysis model to investigate the correlation. A close correlation was observed between the experimentally obtained impedance damage index, and the analytically calculated natural frequency. Using this correlation, the structural characteristics could be evaluated more accurately from the damage estimation results, and the behavior of the structure could be predicted effectively using the analysis model.

Although various methods for determination of damage threshold in rock have been suggested, clear damage thresholds were determined by some methods, but different thresholds were measured by other methods. We determined the damage thresholds in Hangdeung granite using all the methods suggested, and investigated the best methods, applicability and errors of each method. The crack initiation threshold and the crack damage threshold which are important in investigation of characteristics of crack development and failure were verified by field strength ratio method and long-term constant load test. The crack closure stress and the crack initiation stress were 57.5 MPa and 77.6 MPa, and the most exact values were yielded by crack volumetric strain. The secondary crack initiation stress was 90.6 MPa and AE event count and AE event count rate were the effective methods. The volumetric stiffness, AE event count and AE event count rate were the most effective methods for determination of crack coalescence threshold and crack coalescence stress was 110.3 MPa. The crack damage stress was 127.5 MPa and was measured correctly by volumetric stiffness and AE event count rate. The ratio between crack initiation stress and uniaxial compressive strength was 0.47 which was very similar with the FSR value of 0.46. The ratio between crack damage stress and uniaxial compressive strength was almost the same as the ratio between long-term strength and uniaxial compressive strength, indicating that the crack initiation stress and the crack damage stress measured were correct.

과거 고강도강 용접부에서 발생하는 저온균열은 주로 용접열영향부에서 발생하였는데, 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 강재 메이커들은 고강도강의 용접성을 향상시키고자 노력하였다. 이러한 노력의 결과로 TMCP, HSLA 강 등이 개발되었고 이들 강재는 예열온도를 저하시킬 수 있다는 장점 때문에 보편화되어 사용되었다. 이러한 강재는 모재 예열온도를 기준으로 적용하게 되면 용착금속에서 저온균열이 발생하는 경우가 있다. 따라서 이제는 용접재료의 용접성, 즉 용접재료의 저온균열 저항성을 평가 할 수 있는 기법이 요구된다. 본 연구의 목적은 용착금속의 저온균열 저항성을 평가하는 것인데, 저온균열 저항성은 용착금속의 미세조직에 따라 다르게 나타날 수 있다. 용착금속의 합금조성은 기본적으로 용착금속에 요구되는 최저 강도와 충격인성을 만족할 수 있도록 설계한다. 하지만 유사한 강도의 유사한 합금조성이더라도 일부 합금 성분에 의해 용착금속의 미세조직들은 상이하게 나타날 수 있는데, 미세조직 특성에 의하여 용착금속의 강도와 저온인성이 결정된다. 용착금속의 저온균열 저항성을 평가하기위하여 Gapped Bead-on-Groove(G-BOG) 시험에 사용된 모재는 50mm 두께의 mild steel을 사용하였으며, 모재의 희석을 방지하기위해 15mm 깊이로 V-groove 가공 후 buttering 용접 하였다. 용접된 시편은 다시 5mm 깊이로 V-groove로 2차 가공 후 Ar + 20% $Co_2$ gas를 사용하여 용접하였다. 용접재료는 ER-100S-G grade로 비슷한 합금조성을 갖는 2 종류를 사용하였다. A용접재료는 Ti 이 0.1% 함유 되었으며, B용접재료는 Ti 함유되지 않은 것을 사용하였다. 또한 예열 온도에 따라 저온균열 감수성을 평가하기위하여 모재의 예열온도를 각각 상온, $50^{\circ}C,\;75^{\circ}C,\;100^{\circ}C$로 하여 실험을 진행하였다. 용착금속의 미세조직을 확인해본 결과 Ti 함유된 A 용착금속 미세조직은 대부분 침상형페라이트로 나타났으며, Ti 함유되지 않은 B 용착금속 미세조직은 대부분 베이나이트로 나타났다. G-BOG 시험 결과 Ti 함유된 A 시편이 Ti 함유되지 않은 B 시편보다 저온균열 발생량이 적었다. 이는 용착금속의 미세조직분포 및 특성에 따라 저온균열감수성이 다르다는 것을 나타낸다.

The effects of environment and microstructure on low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviors of CF8M stainless steels containing 11% of ferrites were investigated in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water environment. The reduction of LCF life of CF8M in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water was smaller than 316LN stainless steels. Based on the microstructure and fatigue surface analyses, it was confirmed that the hydrogen induced cracking contributed to the reduction in LCF life for CF8M as well as for 316LN. However, many secondary cracks were found on the boundaries of ferrite phases in CF8M, which effectively reduced the stress concentration at the crack tip. Because of the reduced stress concentration, the accelerated fatigue crack growth by hydrogen induced cracking was less significant, which resulted in the smaller environmental effects for CF8M than 316LN in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water.

In the first part of the paper, the crack growth process in rolling contact fatigue has been investigated on ring type plate specimens, in which crack growth is two dimensional and cracks are observed on the side surface of the specimens. The results have shown that cracks are initated from the contact surface in tensile mode in the direction approximately normal to the contact surface and after some short length of growth, shear mode growth occurs from the tip of the crack and it grows until the separation of the surface layer, namely flakung type failure, occurs. In the second part, mode U fatigue crack growth tests have been made by using an apparatus designed based on the concept that the subsurface fatigue crack growth in rolling contact fatigue is the mode U fatigue crack growth under the stress state where the tensile mode growth is suppressed by compression stress. The rest results have shown that the mode U fatigue crack growth occurs if the superposed compression stress is enough to suppress the tensile mode growth.

304 는 BWR(boiling water reactor)의 reactor 구조용 재료로 사용되고 있고, 합금 600 은 PWR(pressurized water reator) 의 증기 발생기 세관으로 쓰이고 있으며 모두 약 $280{\;}^{\circ}C$ 이상 의 원자로 냉각수에 노출되어 있다. 원자로 냉각수 분위기에서 두 합금의 공통적인 특정은 입계응력부식균열(IGSCC)에 민감한것과 IGSCC가 예민화(sensitization)와 관련이 있는 것이 다. 두 합금에서 일어나는 IGSCC는 원자력발전소의 부식피해중 가장 빈도가 높고 발생시 방사능 누출로 인하여 원전의 신뢰성을 저하시키고, 가동중단으로 인한 경제적 손실을 초 래하여 지난 20 년 동안 가장 심도있게 연구된 주제다. 304 은 크롬 탄화물의 업계 석출로 언하여 예민화된경우 IGSCC 에 민감한 반면 600 은 예민화된 경우 뿐만 아니라 용체화처리된 상태에서도 IGSCC에 민감하다. 오히려 600은 용 체화처리 후 700 C에서 15~20시간 시효처리를 하여 크롬탄화물을 업계에 석출 시커었을 때 IGSCC 저항성이 향상된다. 두 합금의 IGSCC 특정 중 큰 차이는 304는 임계균열전위 ( (critical cracking potential) 이 존재하여 부식전위(corrosion potential) 가 엄계균열전위보다 낮 은 경우 IGSCC 가 일어나지 않지만 그 반대인 경우 IGSCC 에 민감하게된다. 반면에 600 은 뚜렷한 임계균열전위가 존재하지 않고 양극 분극(anodic polarization) 뿐만 아니라 음극분극 시에도 IGSCC 가 일어난다. 이련 이유로 600의 IGSCC 가구로 피막파괴-양극용해(film rupture-anodic dissolution)외에 수소취성(hydrogen embrittlement)기구도 제안되고 었다. 원전의 냉각수는 고 순도의 물이지만 수 처리 과정과 웅축기 배관의 누수로 인한 산소, $Cu^{2+},{\;}S_xO_6{\;}^{2-}(x=3~6)$ 등이 유입되어 오염되는데 이려한 오염물질들이 수 ppm정도 소량 포함된 경우 응 력부식민감도는 상당히 증가된다. 산성분위기 흑은 산소, $Cu^{2+}$, 등이 소량 포합된 산화성 분위기 그리고 sufur oxyanion 에 오염된 고온의 물에서 600 의 IGSCC 민감도는 예민화도가 증가할 수록 민감하여 304 의 IGSCC 와 매우 유사한 거동을 보인다. 본 강연에서는 304 와 600 의 고온 물에서 일어나는 IGSCC 민감도에 미치는 환경, 예민화처리, 합금원소의 영향을 고찰하고 이에 대한 최근의 연구 동향과 방식 방법을 다룬다.

A model for the effective moment of inertia $I_{\epsilon}$ as expressed in Branson's equation, in which reduction of the flexural rigidity of RC beams due to cracking are aptly taken into accoun,t is presented. However, KCI Code isn`t considered tension stiffening as it is in debonding of reinforcing bar. Therefore, this equation need to set up suitable to our design Code. The experimental work consisted of casting and testing a total of 6 simply supported reinforced concrete beams and a total of 4 continuos reinforced concrete beams under two point concentrated loads. Main parameters are concrete strength, coverage, bond between concrete and reinforcing bars, are known as have an effect on deflection and tension stiffening. Every test beams had the same $250{\times}350$mm rectangular section, with a simply supported clear span of 4,400 mm and a continuos clear span of 6,500 mm. Comparison of the test results with values obtained using the KCI Code equation of the effective moment of inertia showed a noticeable difference.

Abstract By investigating the stress redistribution caused by the preceding cut blasting when applying the pre-splitting method to tunnel round, an attempt was made to find conditions that were favorable for the propagation of cracks in contour holes. The investigation of the direction of minor principal stress in the numerical analysis revealed that the most significant factor affecting the change of the direction was the loading condition, while the core shape, rock type, and tunnel depth seemed to be less important in determining the direction of minor principal stress. Moreover, the number of cracks tended to increase with the increase of deviatoric stress. Through the model test of pre-splitting, it is confirmed that the pre-splitting method taking the stress field into account can reduce the extent of yield zone and has advantage in controlling the direction of crack than the conventional one.

Steel structure construction is currently increasing on account of the many merits of steel structures. Due to numerous environmental factors, many cracks and extensive corrosion occur in steel structures, which cause the deterioration of the performance and life cycle of such structures. Maintenance of steel structures is thus strongly demanded, for safety control. The inspection methods that are currently being used, however, are very limited and can detect only local defects in steel structures. They also take much time to use and incur high maintenance costs. Moreover, such methods cannot be applied to huge steel structures, which men find unapproachable. They also require much time due to the need for periodic checks, and may lead to cost loss. Therefore, the development of a monitoring system that can detect defects in whole structures and can reduce the repair and strengthening costs at an early stage is very much needed. In this study, the generation and propagation of cracks were monitored via the electric-potential-drop method (EPDM).
