Three point bending tests of single edge notched beam (SENB) specimens were carried out to evaluate the fracture behavior of the fine-grain isotropic nuclear grade graphite, IG-11. To measure the crack initiation point and the subsequent crack growth, the direct current potential drop (DCPD) method and a traveling microscope were used. The effects of test variables like initial crack length, specimen thickness, notch type and loading rate on the measured fracture toughness, $K_Q$, were investigated. Based on the test results, the ranges of the test variables to measure the reliable fracture toughness value were proposed. During the crack growth, the rising R-curve behavior was observed in IG-11 graphite when the superficial crack length measured on the specimen surface was used. The increase of crack growth resistance was discussed in terms of crack bridging, crack meandering, crack branching, microcracking and crack deflection, which increase the surface energy and friction force.

Generally almost all fatigue crack growth is affected by mode I. For this reason a study on mode I has concentrated in the field of fracture mechanics. However the fatigue crack initiation and growth in machines and structures usually occur in mixed mode loading. If there is any relationship between the cause of fracture in mixed mode loading and fracture surface, fracture surface pattern will be the main mean explaining reasons of fatigue fracture and obtaining further information about fracture process. In this paper low point shear-fatigue test with Aluminum alloy hi 5083-O is carried out from this prospect and then the mixed mode distribution of fracture surface is examined from the result after identifying the generation of fatigue crack surface pattern. It was found from the experimental results that the fatigue crack surface pattern and the fatigue crack shear direction are remarkably consistent. Furthermore It is possible that the analysis of distribution of mixed mode through the fatigue crack surface pattern.

However the fatigue crack initiation and growth in machines and structures usually occur in mixed mode loading. If there is any relationship between the cause of fracture in mixed mode loading and fracture surface, fracture surface pattern will be the main mean explaining reasons of fatigue fracture and obtaining further information about fracture process. In this paper four point shear-fatigue test with Aluminum alloy Al 5083-O is carried out from this prospect and then the mixed mode distribution of fracture surface is examined from the result after identifying the generation of fatigue crack surface pattern. It was found from the experimental results that the fatigue crack surface pattern and the fatigue crack shear direction are remarkably consistent. Furthermore It is possible that the analysis of distribution of mixed mode through the fatigue crack surface pattern.

연속섬유강화 복합재료의 경우 보강섬유의 파괴, 모재의 파괴, 섬유와 모재의 분리, 층간파괴 등의 복합적인 파괴현상이 동반되고 특히 균열성장과 균열성장 정지가 균열가교 현상 때문에 반복되므로 안정성장과 불안정성장이 불규칙하게 반복된다. 따라서 주균열 성장의 개시점과 불안정 파괴점에서의 파괴인성치를 정확하게 결정한다는 것은 매우 어려운 것이다. 본 연구에서는 CFRP에 대하여 파괴인성 실험과 병행하여 실시간으로 결함을 검출하는 새로운 방법인 AE분석법 및 비디오 마이크로 스코프를 이용하여 파괴과정을 기록하여 검토, 분석함으로서 손상의 정도와 파괴기구를 규명하였을 뿐만 아니라 주균열 성장의 개시점, 균열가교 역할을 하는 섬유다발의 파단점, 균열의 불안정 파괴 개시점을 찾아 이를 기초로 균열진전 저항곡선에 의한 파괴인성치를 평가하여 신뢰성 있는 파괴인성 측정법을 제시하였다.

The fractal geometry is a non-Euclidean geometry which describes the naturally irregular or fragmented shapes, so that it can be applied to fracture behavior of materials to investigate the fracture process. Fractal curves have a characteristic that represents a self-similarity as an invariant based on the fractal dimension. This fractal geometry was applied to the crack growth of cementitious composites in order to correlate the fracture behavior to microstructures of cementitious composites. The purpose of this study was to find relationships between fractal dimensions and fracture energy. Fracture test was carried out in order to investigate the fracture behavior of plain and fiber reinforced cement composites. The load-CMOD curve and fracture energy of the beams were observed under the three point loading system. The crack profiles were obtained by the image processing system. Box counting method was used to determine the fractal dimension, D$_{f}$. It was known that the linear correlation exists between fractal dimension and fracture energy of the cement composites. The implications of the fractal nature for the crack growth behavior on the fracture energy, G$_{f}$ is apparent.ent.

In this study, to investigate the effects of shot peening on crack growth behavior, crack growth tests are conducted on spring steels and shot peened cracks. The probabilistic crack growth equation, which can represemt the sigmoidal crack growth behavior as recently reported by Kim and Shim, is used to evaluate the experimental results. The results show that fatigue cracks grows slower in the shot peened specimen than in the unpeened and, due to the compressive residual stress occurring on the specimen surface. In the case of the shot peened specimen, the initial stress intensity factor range and the fracture toughness is higher than the non-peened specimen because the compressive residual stress affects crack growth and fracture of the specimen.

The research trends for metal matrix composites have been on basic mechanical properties, fatigue behavior after aging and fractographic observations. In this study, the fatigue crack initiation as well as the fatigue crack growth behavior and the fracture mechanism were investigated through observations of the fracture surface on silicon carbide particles reinforced aluminum metal matrix composites(SiCp/Al). Based on the fractographic study done by scanning electron microscope and replica, crack growth path model and fracture mechanism are presented. The mechanical properties, such as the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation of SiCp/Al composites are improved in a longitudinal direction, however, the fatigue life is shorter than the basic Al6061 alloys. From fractographic observations, it is found that the failure mode is ductile in basic Ai6061 alloys. And because some SiC particles were pulled out from the matrix and a few SiC particles could be seen on the fracture surface of SiCp/Al, crack growth paths are believed to follow the interface of the matrix and its particles.

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/.
