Time-dependent creep analysis of a rotating functionally graded cantilever beam with trapezoidal longitudinal cross section subjected to thermal and inertia loading is investigated using first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The model described in this paper is a simple simulation of a turbine blade working under creep condition. The material is a metal based composite reinforced by a ceramic where the creep properties of which has been described by the Sherby's constitutive model. All mechanical and thermal properties except Poisson's ratio are assumed to be variable longitudinally based on the volume fraction of constituent. The principle of virtual work as well as first order shear deformation theory is used to derive governing equations. Longitudinal distribution of displacements and stresses are investigated for various volume fractions of reinforcement. Method of successive elastic solution is employed to obtain history of stresses and creep deformations. It is found that stresses and displacements approach their steady state values after 40000 hours. The results presented in this paper can be used for selection of appropriate longitudinal distribution of reinforcement to achieve the desired stresses and displacements.

Steam generator (SG) tubes in a nuclear power plant can undergo rapid changes in pressure and temperature during an accident; thus, an accurate model to predict short-term creep damage is essential. The theta (𝜃) projection method has been widely used for modeling creep-strain behavior under constant stress. However, many creep test data are obtained under constant load, so creep rupture behavior under a constant load cannot be accurately simulated due to the different stress conditions. This paper proposes a novel methodology to obtain the creep curve under constant stress using a modified 𝜃 projection method that considers the increase in true stress during creep deformation in a constant-load creep test. The methodology is validated using finite element analysis, and the limitations of the methodology are also discussed. The paper also proposes a creep-strain model for alloy 690 as an SG material and a novel creep hardening rule we call the damage-fraction hardening rule. The creep hardening rule is applied to evaluate the creep rupture behavior of SG tubes. The results of this study show its great potential to evaluate the rupture behavior of an SG tube governed by creep deformation.

극지방의 해양 환경은 낮은 온도와 함께 여러 가지 형태로 존재하는 얼음의 분포에 의해 큰 영향을 받는다. 빙하와 빙산, 해빙 등 빙역학의 기초적인 이해를 위하여 본 연구는 polycrystalline ice의 재료적 특성과 파괴기구 등을 파악하고 극지 방하유동시 관측되는 creep 변경을 기술하기 위한 constitutive 모델을 제시하였다. 빙변형에 관여되는 여러 가지 물리적 변화 중 microcracking에 의한 재료의 손상을 주요인으로 간주하여 파손역학의 이론을 적용한 3차원 수치모델을 개발하였으며 기발표된 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 1축 균일압축을 받는 경우 실험 데이타와 수치모델은 유사한 거동을 보이고 있으며, 빙변형에 있어서 1, 2기 creep의 소성적 변형특성 뿐 아니라 microcracking에 의한3기(tertiary) creep의 특징까지도 잘 기술해 주고 있다.

Initial thermo-elastic and steady state creep deformation of a rotating functionally graded simple blade is studied using first-order shear deformation theory. A variable thickness model for cantilever beam has been considered. The blade geometry and loading are defined as functions of length so that one can define his own blade profile and loading using any arbitrary function. The blade is subjected to a transverse distributed load, an inertia body force due to rotation and a distributed temperature field due to a thermal gradient between the tip and the root. All mechanical and thermal properties except Poisson's ratio are assumed to be longitudinally variable based on the volume fraction of reinforcement. The creep behaviour is modelled by Norton's law. Considering creep strains in stress strain relation, Prandtl-Reuss relations, Norton' law and effective stress relation differential equation in term of effective creep strain is established. This differential equation is solved numerically. By effective creep strain, steady state stresses and deflections are obtained. It is concluded that reinforcement particle size and form of distribution of reinforcement has significant effect on the steady state creep behavior of the blade.

지오그리드의 장기설계 인장강도는 크리프 변형, 시공시 손상 및 환경적 요인(온도, 화학적 손상, 생물학적 손상)에 영향을 받는다. 특히, 크리프 변형 및 시공 시 손상이 가장 크게 영향을 미치는 요인으로서 반영된다. 보강토구조물에 대한 대부분의 현행 설계법에서는, 이들 영향요인을 각각 산정하여 이를 장기인장강도 산정에 반영하고 있다. 즉, 이러한 방법에서는 지오그리드의 시공 중 손상과 크리프 변형의 복합효과가 장기 설계인장강도 산정에 어떤 영향을 미치는 가에 대한 검토가 되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 지오그리드의 시공 중 손상과 크리프 변형의 복합효과가 지오그리드의 장기인장강도 산정에 영향을 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위한 일련의 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 다양한 지오그리드를 대상으로 성토흙 종류에 따른 현장 내시공성시험을 수행하였고, 지오그리드 원시료와 시공중 손상을 입은 시료를 대상으로한 크리프시험을 수행하였다. 연구결과 두 영향인자의 복합효과를 고려하여 산정한 지오그리드의 인장강도 감소계수가 현행 설계법에 의해 산정된 감소계수보다 작은 것으로 나타났다.

The objective of research is to clarify the interaction between dislocations and precipitates during high temperature creep deformation behaviors of high n austenitic steels. After measuring the internal stress in minimum creep rate state under applied stress of 236MPa at 873K, a transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation was performed to investigate the interaction between dislocations and precipitates during high temperature creep deformation. The band widths and values of internal stress increased when the nitride precipitates distribute more densely. Fine nitrides disturbed the dislocation movement with pinning the dislocations and perfect dislocations were separated into Shockley partial dislocations by fine nitrides. Coarse nitrides disturbed the dislocation movement with climb mechanism.

본 논문에서는 깊은 지하 500m에 처분된 가압경수로(PWR) 고준위폐기물 처분용기에 지하수압과 벤토나이트 팽윤압이 가해지는 동안 처분용기에 발생하는 크립변형을 예측하기 위하여 처분용기에 대한 구조해석을 수행하였다. 보통 이러한 크립변형은 처분용기에 추가적인 외력이 작용하지 않더라도 처분용기에 작용하는 압력과 내부의 높은 열에 의하여 발생될 수 있다. 처분용 기내부의 열분포의 복잡성 덴 시간의존성으로 인하여 일단 외부 지하수압 및 팽윤압만 고려하여 크립해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 적당한 크립함수를 사용하였으며, 해석은 1억$(10^8)$초 동안 수행하였다. 해석결과 1억초 동안 발생하는 크립 변형률은 매우 작으며 주희 처분용기의 위아래 덮개에 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 처분용기의 구조강도에 중요한 내부 주철삽입물에는 훨씬 더 작은 미소한 변형률만 발생하여 처분용기에 발생하는 크립변형은 처분용기의 구조적인 안전성에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 해석 초기에 처분용기 내에 급격히 응력이 증가하여 최고치에 도달한 후 잠깐동안 이 응력 값을 유지하다가 그 이 후에는 급격히 응력 값이 감소하는 응력이완현상을 보이고 있기 때문에 발생 응력 측면에서도 전혀 처분용기의 구조적인 안전성에 문제가 없음이 확인되었다.

The importance of long-term performance of reinforced earth structures has been gaining its attention as the use of reinforced earth structures as load supporting structures is increasing. When using reinforced earth structures as loading supporting structures the stability as well as serviceability requirements must be met. In that respect the time-dependent long term deformation characteristics should be well understood. In this study the applicability of power law-based creep models for modeling of creep deformation of the components of reinforced earth structures are examined.

To estimate the true wear rate of polyethylene acetabular cups used in total hip arthroplasty, the dynamic compressive creep deformation of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was quantified as a function of time, load amplitude, and radial location of the specimen in the extruded rod stock. These data were also compared with the creep behavior of polyethylene observed under static loading. Total creep strains under dynamic loading were only 64％, 70％, and 61％ of the total creep strains under static loading at the same maximum pressures of 2 MPa,4 MPa, and 8 MPa, respectively. Specimens cut from the periphery of the rod stock demonstrated more creep than those cut from the center when they were compressed in a direction parallel to the extrusion direction (vertical loading) whereas the opposite was observed when specimens were compressed in a direction perpendicular to the extrusion direction (transverse loading). These findings show that creep deformation of UHMWPE depends upon the orientation of the crystalline lamellae.
