This paper proposes ductile failure simulation under high strain rate conditions using finite element (FE) analyses. In order to simulate a cracked component under a high strain rate condition, this paper applies the stress-modified fracture strain model combined with the Johnson/Cook model. The stress-modified fracture strain model determines the incremental damage in terms of stress triaxiality (${\sigma}_m/{\sigma}_e$) and fracture strain (${\varepsilon}_f$) for a dimple fracture using the tensile test results. To validate the stress-modified fracture strain model under dynamic loading conditions, the parameters are calibrated using the tensile test results under various strain rates and the fracture toughness test results under quasi-static conditions. The calibrated damage model predicts the CT test results under a high strain rate. The simulated results were then compared with the experimental data.

The effect of loading variables and temperature on fatigue crack growth rate in SA508 Cl.3 nuclear pressure vessel steel was investigated in air environment Crack growth rate tests on compact tension specimen of thickness 12mm were conducted by using sinusoidal waveform. The crack length was monitored by compliance method. Test conditions were at 0.1 and 0.5 of load ratio, at 1 and 10 Hz of loading frequency, and at room temperature to 40$0^{\circ}C$. At the lower temperatures, the fatigue crack propagation was not affected by the frequency and temperature, while at the higher temperatures above 12$0^{\circ}C$, fatigue crack growth rate increased with decreasing loading frequency and increasing temperature. This accelerated fatigue crack propagation was associated with the increase of oxidation rate at the ahead of crack tip. Fatigue crack growth rate increased with in-creasing the load ratio. The effect of load ratio was more significant at the lower temperature, while the dependence on load ratio decreased with increasing temperature. The sensitivity of load ratio to temperature can be explained by crack closure with the oxidation process.

경사기능 재료는 위치에 따른 특성 변화를 갖고 있어 변화하는 주변 환경에서 사용되는 재료의 응용성을 높일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 적합한 경사기능 재료의 제조를 위해서는 탄성률, 강도, 인성 등의 위치에 따른 변화를 예측하는 것이 필요하다. 그러나 재료 내에서의 탄성률 변화 등으로 인해 경사기능 재료에서 인성을 정량적으로 표현하는데는 어려움이 있으므로 이를 정량적으로 측정하고, R-curve를 결정하는 것은 재료의 응용성에 중요한 인자가 된다. 본 연구에서는 폴리우레탄 스폰지를 이용하여 밀도의 분포가 연속적으로 다른 폴리 우레탄 스폰지를 제조하고 이에 알루미나 분말 슬러리를 이용하여 slip casting을 행하였다. 그 후 폴리 우레탄 스폰지를 탈지한 후 알루미나 성형체를 소결하여 연속적인 기공률 분포가 다른 다공성 알루미나를 제조하였으며, 이에 Al을 용침하여 $Al_2O_3-Al$ 경사기능 재료를 제조하였다. 이러한 $Al_2O_3-Al$ 경사기능 재료에 대해 파괴인성 및 R-curve 특성을 CT(conpact tension)시편으로 측정하였으며, 이를 균일한 복합체의 파괴인성과 비교하였다. 또한 잔류 응력 특성을 파악하기 위해 실험적이 응력 데이터를 Moire interferometry를 이용하여 결정하였다. 또한 이를 유한요서 해석법(FEM)에 의한 계산치와 비교하였다. 서로 다른 조성 분포를 갖는 $Al_2O_3-Al$ 경사기능 재료와 균일한 복합체의 파괴인성을 비교한 결과 동일한 Al조성에서도 서로 다른 파괴 인성치가 나타났다. $Al_2O_3-Al$ 경사기능 재료에서 파괴인성에 영향을 줄 수 있는 인자로는 술수한 $Al_2O_3$의 파괴인성에 Al금속의 소성변형에 의한 인성증진 효과, 그리고 경사기능 재료에서 상호 조성차이에 따른 잔류응력을 고려할 수 있을 것이다. 이중 $Al_2O_3-Al$ 경사기능 재료의 파괴인성에 미치는 잔류응력의 영향을 고려하기 위해 이의 잔류응력에 대해 실험에 의한 유추된 잔류응력과 FEM계산에 의해 유추된 잔류 응력을 비교, 분석하였다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of light irradiation modes on polymerization shrinkage, degree of cure and microleakage of a composite resin. VIP$^{TM}$ (Bisco Dental Products, Schaumburg, IL, USA) and Optilux 501$^{TM}$ (Demetron/Kerr, Danbury, CT, USA) were used for curing Filtek$^{TM}$ Z-250 (3M Dental Products, St. Paul., MN, USA) composite resin using following irradiation modes: VIP$^{TM}$ (Bisco) 200mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ (V2), 400mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ (V4), 600mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ (V6), Pulse-delay (200 mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 3 seconds, 5 minutes wait, 600mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 30seconds, VPD) and Optilux 501$^{TM}$ (Demetron/Kerr) C-mode (OC), R-mode (OR). Linear polymerization shrinkage of the composite specimens were measured using Linometer (R&B, Daejeon, Korea) for 90 seconds for V2, V4, V6, OC, OR groups and for up to 363 seconds for VPD group (n=10, each). Degree of conversion was measured using FTIR spectrometer (IFS 120 HR, Bruker Karlsruhe, Germany) at the bottom surface of 2 mm thick composite specimens V2, Y4, V6, OC groups were measured separately at five irradiation times (5, 10, 20, 40, 60 seconds) and OR, VPD groups were measured in the above mentioned irradiation modes (n=5 each). Microhardness was measured using Digital microhardness tester (FM7, Future-Tech Co., Tokyo, Japan) at the top and bottom surfaces of 2mm thick composite specimens after exposure to the same irradiation modes as the test of degree of conversion(n=3, each). For the microleakage test, class V cavities were prepared on the distal surface of the ninety extracted human third molars. The cavities were restored with one of the following irradiation modes : V2/60 seconds, V4/40 seconds, V6/30 seconds, VPD , OC and OR. Microleakage was assessed by dye penetration along enamel and dentin margins of cavities. Mean polymerization shrinkage, mean degree of conversion and mean microhardness values for all groups at each time were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Duncan's multiple range test, and using chi-square test far microleakage values. The results were as follows : . Polymerization shrinkage was increased with higher light intensity in groups using VIP$^{TM}$ (Bisco) : the highest with 600mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$, followed by Pulse-delay, 400mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 200mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ groups, The degree of polymerization shrinkage was higher with Continuous mode than with Ramp mode in groups using Optilux 501$^{TM}$ (Demetron/Kerr). . Degree of conversion and microhardness values were higher with higher light intensity. The final degree of conversion was in the range of 44.7 to 54.98% and the final microhardness value in the range of 34.10 to 56.30. . Microleakage was greater in dentin margin than in enamel margin. Higher light intensity showed more microleakage in dentin margin in groups using VIP$^{TM}$ (Bisco). The microleakage was the lowest with Continuous mode in enamel margin and with Ramp mode in dentin margin when Optilux 501$^{TM}$ (Demetron/Kerr) was used.

The aim of this study is to develop the methodology which enables to identify the mechanical properties of element such as stress intensity factor by using the AE parameters. Considering the multivariate and nonlinear properties of AE parameters such as ringdown count, rise time, energy, event duration and peak amplitude from fatigue cracks of machine element the principal component regression(PCR) and artificial neural network(ANN) models for the estimation of stress intensity factor were developed and validated. The AE parameters were found to be very significant to estimate the stress intensity factor. Since the statistical values including correlation coefficients, standard mr of calibration, standard error of prediction and bias were stable, the PCR and ANN models for stress intensity factor were very robust. The performance of ANN model for unknown data of stress intensity factor was better than that of PCR model.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the remineralizing effects of three glass ionomer cements (high filled glass ionomer cement, compomer, resin modified glass ionomer cement) with resin composite (control group) on incipient interproximal caries, and to assess long-term change of remineralization effect, in each material, evaluated by microtomography. Proximal restoration was simulated with tooth specimen and Glass Ionomer Cements. And each of these groups was placed into a closed container with artificial saliva at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0 for a time period of thirty days with constant circulation. At the end of thirty and sixty days, tomographic images were taken from these specimens with micro CT scanner. Materials used in this study were as follows. Group 1: Fuji IX GP (GC Corp., Tokyo, Japan) Group 2: Vitremer (3M ESPE, St. Paul, Minn., USA) Group 3: F2000 (3M ESPE, St. Paul, Minn., USA) Group 4: Z250 (3M ESPE, St. Paul, Minn., USA) Using density-measuring program, the micro-density of carious lesions on the specimens were measured. The mean density changes of each group were compared to the other groups to evaluate the effect of remineralization. The results were as follows: 1. The lesion density of all groups increased. 2. The mean density increase of Group 1, 2, 3 were higher than that of Group 4 every month(p<0.05). 3. There were significant differences of density increase among glass ionomer group(Group 1, 2, 3).
