A gas turbine consists of an upstream compressor and a downstream turbine with a combustion chamber, and also the compressor and the turbine are generally coupled using a single shaft. Many casing bolts are used to assemble two horizontally separated casings, the gas turbine casing and the compressor casing, in both of axial and vertical directions. Because drilled holes for casing bolts in vertical direction are often too close to drilled holes for casing bolts in axial direction, one can observe cracks in the area frequently during operations of a gas turbine. In this study of the root cause analysis for the cracking initiating from the drilled holes of the casings of a gas turbine, the finite element analysis(FEA) was applied to evaluate the thermal and mechanical characteristics of the casings. By applying the field operation data recorded from combined cycle power plants for FEA, thermal and thermo-mechanical characteristics of a gas turbine are analyzed. The crack is initiated at the geometrical weak point, but it is found that the maximum stress is relieved when the same type of cracks is introduced on purpose during FEA. So, it is verified that the local fracture could be delayed by machining the same type of defects near the hole for casing flange bolts of the gas turbine, where the crack is initiated.

수압파쇄는 암반에서 유체의 흐름을 촉진시키기 위한 방법으로 사용되며 지열개발, 세일가스의 개발 등 최근 에너지 분야에서 그 어느 때 보다 활발한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 수압파쇄의 대상이 되는 암반은 등방성을 갖지 않는 경우가 대부분이며 일부 퇴적암층에서는 횡등방성 암반에서 수압파쇄가 이루어진다. 횡등방성 암반에서는 수압파쇄에서 발생하는 균열의 성장 방향이 반드시 최대주응력 방향과 일치하지 않으며 이방성 구조에 따라 변화하게 된다. 그러므로 이 연구에서는 입자결합모델을 이용하여 횡등방성 암석에서의 수압파쇄 특성을 고찰하고 분석하고자 하였다. 또한 실험실 규모의 수압파쇄 실험을 실시하여 수치해석 결과의 타당성을 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 가압되는 유체의 점도 및 층리면의 각도 그리고 이방성에 의한 영향으로 균열의 성장 및 균열 패턴에 큰 차이를 보였으며, 횡등방성 모델의 경우 전단균열에 의한 수압파쇄 균열의 성장이 우세한 것으로 나타났다.

균열이 존재하는 구조물의 균열 선단에서 과도한 소성 상태에 도달하게 되면 파괴역학 매개변수에 의하여 예측되는 균열 선단의 응력장이 실제와는 매우 다르게 나타난다. 구조물의 크기와 형상 그리고 하중의 형태에 따라 균열 선단의 응력장이 유일하지 않다. 이는 균열 선단의 구속 효과가 단일 매개변수 파괴역학으로 표현 될 수 없기 때문이다. 따라서 전통적으로 사용되었던 K, J를 이용한 단일 매개변수 파괴역학을 보완하기 위하여 다양한 시도가 있었고, 대표적으로 Q-응력이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Q-응력을 이용하여 원주방향으로 완전히 발달한 표면 균열이 있을 경우의 균열 선단의 구속 효과를 확인하였다. 고려된 하중은 일차하중으로 축 방향 인장하중과 반경방향 열구배에 의한 이차하중의 복합하중이다. 이차하중이 일차하중보다 구속효과가 더 심하며 기계하중보다 열하중이 뒤에 가해지는 열충격조건에서 구속효과가 더 심하게 나타남을 확인하였다.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of residual stresses on the $\Delta$K$\sub$th/ and fatigue crack growth behavior of butt weldments. For this purpose, transverse butt sutmerged arc welding was performed on SM50A steel plate and CT(compact tension) specimens which loading direction is perpendicular to weld bead were selected. Welding residual stresses distribution on the specimen was determined by hole drilling method. The case of crack located parallel to weld bead, the states of as weld and PWHT, $\Delta$K$\sub$th/ of specimens(HAZ, weld zone) was higher than that of the base metal probably because of the compressive residual stresses of crack tip. In low $\Delta$K region, it is estimated that the effects of residual stresses for da/dN are great. In region II, the da/dN of weldments in as weld state was lower than that of the base metal. Though da/dN of Weldments in PWHT state was similar to that of the base metal. The constant of power law, m in two states consisted with the base metal. Therefore , it is estimated that the value of m is not affected by residual stresses. Fatigue crack growth behavior of weldments consisted with the base metal considering the effective stress intensity factor range($\Delta$K$\sub$eff/) included the effect of initial residual stress(Kres). Thus, we can predict the fatigue crack growth behavior of weldment by knowing the distribution of initial residual stress at the crack tip.

본 연구의 목적은 마찰교반용접된 Al7075-T651의 피로균열전파 거동에 미치는 시험편의 채취방향의 영향을 고찰하기 위한 것이다. 피로균열전파 실험은 마찰교반용접된 공시재로부터 모재와 용접재에 대하여 CT 시험편을 채취하여 일정응력확대계수범위 제어하에서 수행되었다. 균열이 용접선에 수직하여 전파하는 것(TL 시험편으로 명명)과 균열이 용접선과 나란히 전파하는 시험편(LT 시험편으로 명명)에 대하여 3가지 다른 응력확대계수범위에서 실험이 수행되었다. 시험편의 채취 방향에 따라 피로균열전파거동에 주요한 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. Paris 법칙에 적합시킨 결과 지수 m값은 WM-LT 시험편이 3.56으로 가장 높게 나타났다.

This study aims to examine an effect of stacking sequence and curvature on the penetration characteristic of a composite laminated shell. For the purpose, we manufactured specimens with different stacking sequences and curvatures, and conducted a penetration test using an air-gun. To examine an influence according to stacking sequence, as flat plate and curvature specimen had more plies, their critical penetration energy was higher, Critical penetration energies of specimen A and C with less interfaces somewhat higher than those of B and D with more interfaces. The reason that with less interfaces, critical penetration energy was higher is pre-impact bending stiffness of composite laminated shell with less interfaces was lower than that of laminated shell with more interfaces, but bending stiffness after impact was higher. And it is because interface, the weakest part of the composite laminated shell, was influenced by transverse impact. As curvature increases, critical penetration energy increases linearly. It is because as curvature increases, resistance to in-plane deformation as well as bending deformation increases, which need higher critical penetration energy. Patterns of cracks caused by penetration of composite laminated shells include interlaminar crack, intralaminar crack, and laminar fracture. A 0$^{\circ}$ply laminar had a matrix crack, a 90$^{\circ}$ply laminar had intralaminar crack and laminar fracture, and interface between 0$^{\circ}$and 90$^{\circ}$laminar had a interlaminar crack. We examined crack length and delamination area through a penetration test. For the specimen A and C with 2 interface, the longest circumferential direction crack length and largest delamination area were observed on the first interface from the impact point. For the specimen B and D with 4 interface, the longest crack length and largest delamination area were observed on the third interface from the impact point.

Global postbuckling analysis is accomplished for one-dimensional and two-dimensional delaminations. A new finite element model, which can be used to model the global postbuckling analysis of one-dimensional and two-dimensional delaminations, is presented. In order to calculate the strain energy release rate, geometrically nonlinear analysis is accomplished, and the incremental crack closure technique is introduced. To check the effectiveness of the finite element models and the incremental crack closure technique, the simplified closed-form sloution for a through-the-width delamination with plane strain condition is derived and compared with the finite element result. The finite element results show good agreement with the closed-foul1 solutions. The present method was extended to calculate the strain energy release rate for two-dimensional delamination. For a symmetric circular delamination, the strain energy release rate shows great variation along the delamination front. and the delamination growth appears to occur perpendicular to the loading direction.

This study verified the relationship between fracture mechanics parameters(${\Delta}K,\;K_{max}$) and X-ray parameters ($(\sigma}_r,;B$) for G365 steel at elevated temperature up to $300{\circ}C$. The fatigue crack propagation test were carried out and X-ray diffraction technique according to crack length direction was applied to fatigue fractured surface. The residual stress on the fracture surface was found to increase in low ${\Delta}K$ region, reach to a maximum value at a certain value of $K_{max}$ or ${\Delta}K$ and then decrease. Residual stress was independent on stress ratio by arrangement of ${\Delta}K$ and half value breadth was independent by the arrangement of $K_{max}$. The equation of ${\sigma}_r-{\Delta}K$ was established by the experimental data. Therefore, fracture mechanics parameters could be estimated by the measurement of X-ray parameters.

Bulging is a forming method to shape of die cavity by using hydraulic pressure in tube or vessel. Bulging machine and die were developed in order to produce vessel for keeping warm. Bulging machine is a double type with two horizontal cylinders for bulging of two pieces at the same time. The developed die system has one bulging die and two drawing dies for necking at the both ends of tube. The diameter of tube expands by hydraulic pressure in tube. at the same time, thrust at the both ends of tube. pushes tube in the direction of expansion to obtain high expanding rate with no crack. In this study, the bulging properties were investigated to solve tube crack and necking in manufacturing vessel by the combination method of bulging and drawing. As a result, high expanding rate of tube radius without crack, precision necking and high productivity were obtained.
