Recently, attempts have been made to be join ceramics to metals in order to make up for the brittleness of ceramics. The difference in the coefficients of linear expansion of the two materials joined at high temperature will cause residual stress, which has a strong influence on the strength of the bonded joints. In this paper, the residual stress distribution and stress intensity factors of the ceramic/metal bonded joints were analyzed by 2-dimensional elastic boundary element method. Fracture toughness tests of ceramic/metal bonded joints with an interface crack were carried out. So the advanced method of quantitative strength evaluation for ceramic/metal bonded joints is to be suggested. Fracture surface and crack propagation path were observed using scanning electron microscope.

It is difficult to predict the accurate fatigue life of the ship structure because of load uncertainty and load redistribution at the ship structure members. As one of studies for accurate evaluation and prediction of fatigue life, it is a promising way to detect the crack previously by attaching the Fatigue Indicator Sensor (FIS) at the crack prediction region. In order to predict the fatigue life of the ship structure by using FIS, it is required to know previously the crack propagation characteristics according to pre-notch shapes. In this study, we obtained the stress distribution phase, stress concentration factors and stress intensity factor of various pre-notch shapes through FEA. Additionally, we conducted the fatigue test and obtained the characteristics of crack propagation according to the pre-notch shapes through comparison between the fatigue test and the FEA. Consequently, we classified the pre-notch shape into 3 categories: Long, Medium, and Short life type. On the basis of the numerical and experimental results, the FIS can be developed.

The fatigue crack propagation rate has so far been measured by the effective stress intensity factor range Δ K/sub eff/. But no research has been done to study how much the crack opening ratio influences the expectation of the fatigue crack propagation. Therefore, this paper evaluates of the crack opening ratio on the fatigue crack propagation life by using the method of parameter sensitivity study. Summarizing the result ; ( 1 ) When the crack opening ratio U' is high, the effect of U' gets larger than any other except for the material factor m. But when U' is low, the effect is also diminished. Therefore, the selection of the lowest value possible is desirable in the evaluation of life. (2) When the value of the material factor m is high, the effect of crack opening ratio U' is increased, at the same time the effect of the other parameters also increased wholly. The effect of material factor m itself on life is high, but in case the material factor m is high, that the effect of each parameter on life get higher is unique. In designing, better attention to the material selection should be drawn. (3) In case the stress ratio R gets smaller, the effect of crack opening ratio U' is unchangeable. But the effect of R itself remarkably decreases, and the effect of material factor m somewhat decreases.

Low temperature fatigue crack propagation ratio and characteristics of the pressure structural steel which is used for the low temperature pressure vessels. Fatigue crack properties was studied at room temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and low temperature ranges $-60^{\circ}C,\; -80^{\circ}C \;and\; -100^{\circ}C$ with stress ratio of R=0.05, 0.1, 0.3 in the logarithmic relationship between the fatigue crack propagation rate (da/dN) and stress intensity factor $\DeltaK$, in low temperature case the relationship was extend to the range of low crack propagation rate. The fractured specimens were examined by SEM tested. That results showed specimen failed at low temperature exhibit the quasi-cleavage fracture formation, however, considerable ductility proceed final fracture.

The effects of the interface and two holes located near the crack path in the hybrid specimen on the dynamic crack propagation behavior have been investigated using dynamic photoelasticity with the aid of Cranz-Shardin type high speed camera system. The dynamic stress field around the dynamically propagating interface crack tip in the three point bending specimens under a dynamic load applied by a hammer dropped from 0.6m high without initial velocity are recorded. The complex stress intensity factors for the dynamically propagating interface crack are extracted by using a overdeterministic least square method. Theoretical dynamic interface isochromatic fringe loops generated by using the numerically determined complex stress intensity factors are compared with the experimental results. Furthermore, the influence of the hole to the dynamic interface crack velocities has been investigated experimentally.

Previous researches for fiber reinforced composite material(FRCM) have been evaluated the fatigue delamination behavior using the traditional fracture mechanics parameters. Therefore. previous researches for FRCM have not generally been firmed yet. Because delamination growth behavior in FRCM should be consider relationship between delamination area, A$\sub$D/ and crack length, a instead of traditional fracture mechanics parameters. Especially, in case of delamination behavior for FRCM without crack should be considering equivalent crack, i.e., pseudo crack, a$\sub$p/, using the fracture behavior of FRCM with crack. The major purpose of this study was to evaluate the delamination for FRCM without crack. The details of the studies are as follow : 1) Relationship between crack growth rate, da/dN and stress intensity factor, ΔK in FRCM containing a saw-cut and circular hole with crack. 2) Propose of PSEUDO CRACK MODEL for the delamination in FRCM without crack. 3) Analysis of crack propagation energy, E$\sub$crack/ using a total energy, E$\sub$total/ and delamination growth energy, E$\sub$del/.

In this study, CT specimens were prepared from spring steel(SUP9) processed shot peening which was room temperature, low temperature and high temperature experiment. And we got the following characteristics from fatigue crack growth test carried out in the environment of room, low temperature and high temperature at $25^{\circ}C$,$-30^{\circ}C$,$-50^{\circ}C$,$-70^{\circ}C$ and $-100^{\circ}C$ in the range of stress ratio of 0.05 by means of opening mode displacement. The threshold stress intensity factor range $\Delta K_{th}$ in the early stage of fatigue crack growth (Region I ) and stress intensity factor range $\Delta K$ in the stable of fatigue crack growth (Region II) was decreased in proportion to descend temperature. It assumed that the fatigue resistance characteristics and fracture strength at low temperature and high temperature is considerable higher than that of room temperature in the early stage and stable of fatigue crack growth region.
