Analysis of the fracture surface is one of the most important methods for determining the cause of equipment structural failure. Whether structural failure is caused by impact or fatigue is necessary information in industrial fields. For ferrous and non-ferrous metal materials, two fracture phenomena are generated on the fracture surface: ductile and brittle fractures. In this study, machine learning predicts whether the fracture is based on ductile or brittle when structurural failure is caused by impact. The K-means algorithm calculates this ratio by clustering the brittle and ductile fracture data from a photograph of the impact fracture surface, unlike the existing method, which calculates the fracture surface ratio by comparison with the grid type or the reference fracture surface shape.

The toughening mechanisms of polypropylene (PP) containing 9.2 vol % of calcium carbonate ($CaCO_{3}$) nanoparticles were investigated using optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Double-notch four-point bending (DN-4PB) Charpy impact specimens were utilized to study the fracture mechanism(s) responsible for the observed toughening effect. A detailed investigation reveals that the $CaCO_{3}$ nanoparticles act as stress concentrators to initiate massive crazes, followed by shear banding in PP matrix. These toughening mechanisms are responsible for the observed improved impact strength.

The effects of post weld heat treatment(PWHT) on the mechanical properties of 2.25Cr-1Mo steels were investigated. As the PWHT temperature or holding time increased, the strength of low alloy steels progressively decreased due to softening process. After the conventional PWHT, the strength was larger than the minimum value of materials specification. The Charpy impact energy was hardly affected by the conventional PWHT. The trend of mechanical properties was analyzed in terms of tempering parameter. Most materials replaced from a power plant met the requirements of materials specification except for one heat. Same heat of materials with low impact energy were attributed to the voids formed during casting process.

This paper is concerned with the improvement of impact and tensile Properties of spheroidal graphite cast iron of the following duplex matricess which were heat treated in the eutectic transformation temperature range (that is, $({\alpha}+{\gamma})$ coexisting range) ; ferrite-martensite, ferrite-bainite and ferrite-pearlite. The absorbed energy and maximum load was measured by recording the load-deflection curve with instrumented Charpy impact testing machine in the temperature range from $+100^{\circ}C$ to $-196^{\circ}C$. It was found the ferrite-bainite duplex matrix showed the highest toughness among the above matrices in the room temperature and the low temperature range. Comparison of this matrix to ferrite-pearlite matrix(that is, as cast) showed a lowering of $27^{\circ}C$ in the nil-ductility transition temperature (NDT) and a lowering of $40^{\circ}C$ in the ductile-brittle transition temperature (TrE), Which seems to result from the finner dimple pattern observed using miorofractography.

최근 환경오염 문제와 관련하여 청정연료로 수요가 증가하고 있는 액화천연가스(LNG)의 저장탱크 및 운반선 등 연료 저장 설비, 초전도이용 관련 기기와 같은 저온용 설비 및 기기가 증가하고 있고 대형화의 추세를 보이고 있다. 특히 액화천연가스(LNG)의 수요급증에 따라 이의 운송 및 저장에 필요한 재료의 수요가 증가하면서 극저온재료에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. LNG저장조의 대형화에 따라, 설계강도상의 검토는 물론, 사용재료의 특성, 가공성 및 용접 둥의 시공법을 비롯하여 품질관리 면까지 충분한 검토가 필요하다. 특히 LNG를 저장하는 내조재료에 대하여는 모재 및 용접부의 제반 특성을 파악하여 저온에서 취성파괴에 대한 안전성을 확인해 둘 필요가 있다. 본 연구는, LNG 저장 탱크의 안전성 평가시 필요한 재료물성 데이터 중 파괴인성의 측정 기반 기술을 확보하고, 현재 국내에서 사용되고 있는 LNG 저장탱크용 재질(SUS304L강, Al합금 및 $9\%$ Ni강)에 대하여 77 K 및 173 K에서 계장화 샬피충격시험을 실시하여 온도에 따른 충격파괴특성 및 파면해석을 실시하여, 안전성 평가에 필요한 기초 자료를 확보하는 것을 주목적으로 한다. 계장화샬피충격파괴시험결과, $9\%$니켈강의 경우 온도저하에 따라 77K까지는 인성의 저하정도가 적어 우수한 파괴저항을 나타내었다. 계장화 장치에 의해 얻어진 하중-처짐 곡선으로부터, 온도가 173 K에서 77 K로 저하함에 따라 최대하중은 증가하였으나 에너지는 오히려 감소하였다. 또한 균열개시에 쓰여진 에너지보다 균열진전에 쓰여진 에너지가 높게 나타났다. A5083의 경우 합금강재에 비해 충격흡수에너지값이 낮고 저온 특유의 갈라짐 현상을 볼 수 있었다. SUS304L재의 경우 균열개시에 쓰여지는 에너지가 높게 나타났고, 균열진전에 따른 에너지는 거의 나타나지 않아 균열개시 후 비교적 평탄한 파단면을 나타내는 파면관찰 결과와 일치하는 거동을 나타내었다.

The five classes of the thermally aged CF8M specimen are prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method. Namely, after the specimens are held for 100, 300, 900, 1800, and 3600hrs at 430$^{\circ}C$ respectively, the specimens are water-cooled to room temperature. The impact energy variations are measures for both the aged and virgin specimens through the Charpy impact tests in addition to the microstructure observation, tensile, hardness and fatigue crack growth tests. From the present investigation the following results are obtained : 1) The difference among the thermally degraded specimens can be distinguished through their microstructures, 2) Hardness and tensile strength are increased to 300hrs, degradation specimen, while elongation and reduction area are decreased to 3600hrs degradation specimen, and impact energy is decreased to 1800hrs degradation specimen, 3) The FCG rates for thermally degraded specimens are larger than that of the virgin specimen.

In this study, low-carbon hypoeutectoid steels with different ferrite-pearlite microstructures were fabricated by varying transformation temperature. The microstructural factors such as pearlite fraction and interlamellar spacing, and cementite thickness were quantitatively measured and then Charpy impact tests conducted on the specimens in order to investigate the correlation of the microstructural factors with impact toughness and ductile-brittle transition temperature. The microstructural analysis results showed that the pearlite interlamellar spacing and cementite thickness decreases while the pearlite fraction increases as the transformation temperature decreases. Although the specimens with higher pearlite fractions have low absorbed energy, on the other hand, the absorbed energy is higher in room temperature than in low temperature. The upper-shelf energy slightly increases with decreasing the pearlite interlamellar spacing. However, the ductile-brittle transition temperature is hardly affected by the pearlite interlamellar spacing because there is an optimum interlamellar spacing dependent on lamellar ferrite and cementite thickness and because the increase in pearlite fraction and the decrease in interlamellar spacing with decreasing transformation temperature have a contradictory role on absorbed energy.

The study aims to investigate the influence of alloying elements(V,Ti) and heat treatment on the mechanical properties in hypo-eutectic chromium cast iron. Before heat treatment, all of the specimen were fully annealed(950$^{\circ}C{\times}5Hr$) to homogenize their structures. The influence of heat treatment and alloying elements(V,Ti) on hardness, retained austenite volume, and charpy impact energy as well as tensile strength of the specimen was tested systematically. Retained austenite decreased with the increase of V and Ti, but incresed with the increase of number of cycles. The impact energy decreased, and hardness and tensile strength increased with the increase of alloying elements (V,Ti) and the decrease of the number of cycles. The hardness and tensile strength increased, but impact energy decreased with the increase of V and Ti elements and the temperature of destabillization heat treatment. After the destabillization heat treatment at the same temperature, the impact energy is increased, while hardness and tensile strength decreased as the increase of tempering temperature. Retained austenite increased with increase of destabilizatoin heat treatment temperature, while decrease with the increase of tempering temperature.

Effects of microstructural change, tensile properties and impact property according to the change of austenitizing temperature and tempering temperature of AISI 51B20 steel were examined. Regardless of austenite grain size, lath martensite with needle and packet shapes was found at tempering temperature of $300^{\circ}C{\sim}400^{\circ}C$. The needles of lath martensite changed to parallel packet at tempering temperature of $450^{\circ}C{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. As tempering temperature increased, tensile strength, yield strength and hardness decreased, while elongation, ratio of reduction area and Charpy impact energy increased. Grain size increased when quenching temperature was $930^{\circ}C$. Grain size had prominent effect on the mechanical properties of AISI 51B20 steel. Ratio of tensile strength/yield strength and yield strength autenitized at $880^{\circ}C$ followed by tempering at $350^{\circ}C{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ showed higher values than that of autenization at $930^{\circ}C$ due to fine grain size.

This paper has an purpose to study the effect of C on the toughness of YS 460 MPa FCAW weld metal. These effects were evaluated by charpy impact and CTOD test about 4 FCAW weld metal containing various C and Si content in relation to microstructure. Increase of C content was helpful to increase AF volume fraction and reduce PF(G) and FS volume fraction by increasing super cooling rate for ferrite transformation. Also, Increase of C content up to 0.045wt% made the strength and impact toughness higher by increasing AF volume fraction. The weld metal containing higher C content indicated higher CTOD value. It is because the volume fraction of PF(G) and FS, can play a role as crack initiation site, was reduced. Effect of C on the strength and elongation of weld metal was higher with an increase of Si contents.
