The failure of die often occurs as a result of growth of microcracks - referred as a brittle damage. In this study, an analysis of brittle damage evolution cupled with elastic finite element analysis of die deformation is presented. A local transformation from the tractions of a workpiece mesh to those of a die mesh is developed. The brittle damage is defined as a vector considering the shape of common microcracks in the brittle metals and the damage function suggested by Krajcinovic is utillized. Applications of the proposed model to modeling damage evolution in the extrusion die and forging die are given and the characteristics of brittle damage evolution in die are in detail examined.

Brittle failure mechanism has been well known as growth of initial micro-damage, that causes macro crack and failure in the end. Several precise criteria are suggested recently, based on experiments values in a whole load range. Among them, Mohr-Coulomb's criterion is used widely these days, but it has a big error compared with the real failure behavior since it does not show reciprocal actions of stresses. In this study, a new brittle failure criterion is proposed, which includes the effects of brittle damage evolution by taking a brittle damage parameter specifically. Comparisons between the proposed model and the previous ones are also given.

Hertzian indentation tests with sphere indenters were used to study the mechanical properties of glass-in-filtrated alumina and spinel composites and evaluated the effect of preform microstructure and evaluated the effect of preform microstructure and glass con-tents on contanct damage and strength. The spinel composite showed more brittle behavior than the alumina composite which is verified from indentation stress-strain curve cone cracks and quasi-plastic deformation developed at subsurface. Failure originated from either cone cracks(brittle mode) or deformation zone(quasi-plastic mode) above critical load for cracking(Pc) and yield ({{{{ {P }_{Y } }}) with the brittle mode more dominant in the spinels and the quasi-plastic mode more dominant in the aluminas. Even though brittle mode was dominant in the spinel composites the strength degradation from accumulation of damage above these critical loads was conspicuously small suggesting that the glass-infiltrated composites should be highly damage tolerant to the blunt contacts.

Brittle materials such as glasses and ceramics, which are very weak under impact loading, show fragile failure mode due to their low fracture toughness and crack sensitivity. When brittle materials are subjected to impact by small spheres, high contact pressure occurs at the impacted surface causing local damage on the specimen. This damage is a dangerous factor in causing the final fracture of structures. In this research, the crack propagation process of soda-lime glass by the impact of small spheres is explained and the effects of several constraint conditions for impact damage were studied by using soda-lime glass; that is, the effects for the materials and sizes of impact ball, thickness of specimen and residual strength were evaluated. Especially, this research has focused on the damage behavior of ring cracks, cone cracks and several other kinds of cracks.

Brittle materials such as ceramics and glasses show fragile fracture due to the low toughness and the crack sensitivity. When brittle materials are subjected to impact loading by small spheres, high contact pressure occurs to the surface of the specimen. Local damage is subsequently generated in the specimen. This local damage is a dangerous factor which gives rise to the final fracture of structures. In this research, impact damage of soda-lime glass plates by small spheres was evaluated by considering the effects of impact directions of indenter, pressure condition of specimen and residual strength after impact loading.

Fracture behavior of brittle solids such as rocks, ceramics and concrete is closely related to microcracking. A meso-scale analysis method using the natural element method is proposed for the analysis of material damage of brittle microcracking solids. The microcracking is assumed to occur along Voronoi edges in the Voronoi diagram generated using the nodal points as the generators. The mechanical effect of microcracks is considered by controlling the material constants in the neighborhood of the microcracks. The proposed meso analysis method is applied to the simulation of the microcracking behaviors of brittle solids subjected to uniaxial and biaxial macrostress. The obtained results are in good agreement with the results by computational damage mechanics model. The validity of the proposed method has been demonstrated by these numerical examples.

응력 증가에 의한 취성 암석의 손상은 미세균열의 개시로부터 시작하여 각 개별 균열들의 전파 및 결합에 의해 거시적인 파괴면을 발생시킨다. 전통적으로 암반의 손상 및 파괴현상을 설명하기 위해 거시적인 파괴 기준이나 탄소성 모델과 같은 연속체적인 접근법이 주류를 이루어왔다. 하지만 개별적인 균열들의 개시와 전락 과정을 명시적으로 고려할 수 있다면 현상론적인 관점에서 보다 실제에 가까운 암석 손상 및 파괴 과정을 재현할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 암석의 균열 진전 모델링을 위해 개발된 경계요소 코드인 FRACOD를 이용하여 암석의 손상 및 파괴 과정을 모사한 결과를 제시한다. 수치일축압축시험을 통해 개발된 모델의 적정성을 검증하고 암반의 치수효과를 고려한 현실적인 암석 파괴 과정을 재현하였다. 또한 이러한 접근법의 적용 사례로서, 실제 굴착이 진행중인 심부 수갱 암반 주변에서 심도와 암반 특성에 따라 균열 진전과 이에 따른 암반 손상의 범위를 예측한 결과를 제시하였다. 이 접근법은 취성도가 큰 암반에서 발생하는 안정성 문제에 대한 공학적인 해법을 찾는데 기여를 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Rock brittleness, which is closely related to the failure modes, plays a significant role in the design and construction of many rock engineering applications. However, the brittle-ductile failure transition is mostly ignored by the current statistical damage constitutive model, which may misestimate the failure strength and failure behaviours of intact rock. In this study, a new statistical damage model considering rock brittleness is proposed for brittle to ductile behaviour of rocks using brittleness index (BI). Firstly, the statistical constitutive damage model is reviewed and a new statistical damage model considering failure mode transition is developed by introducing rock brittleness parameter-BI. Then the corresponding damage distribution parameters, shape parameter m and scale parameter F₀, are expressed in terms of BI. The shape parameter m has a positive relationship with BI while the scale parameter F₀ depends on both BI and ε_e. Finally, the robustness and correctness of the proposed damage model is validated using a set of experimental data with various confining pressure.

The deformation and strength of brittle rocks are significantly influenced by the crack closure behavior. The relationship between the strength and deformation of rocks under uniaxial loading is the foundation for design and assessment of such scenarios. The concept of relative crack closure strain was proposed to describe the influence of the crack closure behavior on the deformation and strength of rocks. Considering the crack compaction effect, a new damage constitutive model was developed based on accumulated AE counts. First, a damage variable based on the accumulated AE counts was introduced, and the damage evolution equations for the four types of brittle rocks were then derived. Second, a compaction coefficient was proposed to describe the compaction degree and a correction factor was proposed to correct the error in the effective elastic modulus instead of the elastic modulus of the rock without new damage. Finally, the compaction coefficient and correction factor were used to modify the damage constitutive model obtained using the Lemaitre strain equivalence hypothesis. The fitted results of the models were then compared with the experimental data. The results showed that the uniaxial compressive strength and effective elastic modulus decrease with an increase in the relative crack closure strain. The values of the damage variables increase exponentially with strains. The modified damage constitutive equation can be used to more accurately describe the compressive deformation (particularly the compaction stage) of the four types of brittle rocks, with a coefficient of determination greater than 0.9.

일반적으로 고심도에 건설되는 암반구조물의 경우 높은 현지응력과 공동의 굴착에 따른 유도응력으로 인하여 공동 경계면에서 스폴링(spatting)이나 슬래빙(slabbing)과 같은 취성파괴가 발생할 수 있다. Hoek-Brown과 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴기준과 같은 전통적인 파괴기준을 적용한 결과 취성파괴현상과 파괴심도 등을 예측할 수 없는 것으로 나타나 취성파괴를 예측하기 위한 여러 모델이 제안되었으며, 그 중 CWFS 모델이 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 모형실험에서 얻어진 원형공동주변의 취성파괴현상을 모델링하기위하여 CWFS 모델을 적용하였으며, 입력자료의 산정을 위해 암석의 손상정도와 손상에 따른 물성의 변화를 측정하는 손상제어시험을 수행하였다. CWFS 모델에 의해 예측된 파괴양상을 전통적인 파괴기준에 의한 해석결과 및 모형실험결과와 비교하여 취성파괴모델링의 적용성을 평가하였다.
