Since some warm-mix asphalt (WMA) concretes were known to show poorer rut resistance than the hot-mix asphalt (HMA) concretes, many studies were performed in efforts of improving its performance at high temperature. The reason is assumed to be due to the moisture remaining in aggregates dried at lower temperature. Therefore, not only the rut resistance, the crack resistance of WMA concrete was also in question. In this study, fatigue life of WMA concrete was evaluated in comparison with HMA using 3-point bending (3PB) beam test. The asphalt mixtures were prepared based on Korean mix-design guide using a 13 mm dense-graded aggregate and 6 binders; two HMA binders and four WMA binders. By 3PB fatigue test, normal (unmodified) and polymer-modified WMA concretes were evaluated in comparison with normal and polymer-modified HMA concretes at a low temperature (-5℃). The results showed that most of WMA concretes showed longer fatigue lives than HMA concretes, even though the same PG binders were used for HMA and WMA. This result indicates that the WMA concretes have stronger resistance against fatigue cracking than HMA at the low temperature, and this result is in contrast to the high-temperature performance test.

원자력발전소의 안전성등급 기기에 적용되는 비파괴검사는 실제 결함을 실현한 시험편을 사용하여 결함탐지능력을 검증하도록 하는 기량검증이 요구되고 있다. 가동중인 원전에서 발생 가능한 균열으로는 기계적 피로균열, 열 피로균열 및 입계부식균열 등이 있으나 본 연구에서는 기계적 피로균열을 대상으로 하였다. 인장 피로하중을 사용하여 기계적 피로결함을 제조하기 위해서 시험편을 설계하였고 원하는 피로결함 파면의 조도를 얻기 위해서 인가하중의 크기 및 사이클 수를 조절하여 피로결함을 발생시켰다. 발생된 결함에 대한 정확한 크기와 위치에 대한 물리적 정보를 얻은 후에 결함이 설계된 크기와 위치에 존재하도록 기밀용접을 실시하였다. 기밀용접 후 잔여 용접 흠은 가스 텅스텐 아크용접 및 플럭스 코어드 아크용접으로 채워졌다. 최종 완성된 피로결함 시험편을 방사선투과검사 및 초음파탐상검사를 통하여 검사한 결과, 설계된 길이와 깊이로 피로결함이 형성되었음을 확인하였다.

Alloy 617은 초고온가스로(VHTR)의 중간열교환기(IHX)의 유력한 후보 재료 중의 하나이다. $850^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 Alloy 617 용접재의 저사이클 피로 거동을 고찰하기 위하여, 완전 양진 변형률제어 피로시험이 0.6에서 1.5%의 전변형률범위에서 수행되었다. 용접재 시험편은 V-그루브 형상의 가스텅그스텐아크 용접한 용접 패드로부터 가공되었다. 피로수명은 전변형률범위가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 모든 실험조건에서 Alloy 617 용접재 시험편의 반복 응력 반응 거동은 초기 수 사이클에서 반복 변형률 경화현상을 나타내었다. 또한 모든 피로 균열의 발생과 전파는 입내파괴의 파손 모드를 보였다.

The effects of laser peening on metallic materials have been investigated with water-penetrable frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser. Laser pulses of 200 mJ energy and 8 ns duration focused on samples underwater with 0.8 mm spot diameter. X-ray study showed that compressive residual stress was imparted on SKD61 from the surface to nearly 2 mm depth. Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) was prohibited for sensitized SUS304 even in a severely corrosive environment fatigue lives of SUS316L and SM490A welded samples were prolonged significantly in the high-cycle regime. Since 1999, laser peening has been applied to prevent SCC in operating nuclear power plants in Japan.

One of the useful technologies for light-weightening of components required in the automobile and machine industry is to use high strength materials. To improve material properties, the carbonizing treatment, nitrifying treatment, and shot-peening method are representatively applied. However, the shot-peening method is generally used to remove surface defect on steel and to improve the fatigue strength of the surface. Benefits of shot-peening are increasing resistance against fatigue, stress corrosion cracking, fretting, galling, erosion and closing of pores. In this paper, the effect of shot-peening on the corrosion of SUP-9 steel immersed in a 3.5% NaCl solution and corrosion characteristics from heat treatment during the shot peening process has been investigated. The immersion test was performed on four kinds of specimens. Corrosion potential, the polarization curve, residual stress etc. Were analyzed from the experimental results.

Cracking at low temperatures is one of the frequently observed modes of failure in asphalt concretes. In this investigation, fracture tests were performed on cracked asphalt concrete subjected to pure mode I and pure mode II loading at different subzero temperatures. An improved semi-circular bend (SCB) specimen containing a vertical crack was used to conduct the experiments. The SCB specimens produced from the gyratory compacted cylindrical samples were compressively loaded, and critical stress intensity factors, $K_{If}$ and $K_{IIf}$, were then calculated using peak loads obtained from the tests. The experimental results showed that with decreasing the temperature, mode I and mode II critical stress intensity factors increased first but below a certain temperature they both decreased. It was also found that at a fixed temperature, the mode II fracture resistance of the asphalt concrete was higher than its mode I fracture resistance.

It is well known that during the oxygen cutting process residual thermal stresses are produced in weldment. The local non-uniform heating and subsequent cooling which takes place during any welding process causes complex thermal strains and stresses to finally lead to residual stresses exceed to the yield stress. High tensile stresses combined with applied structural load in the region near the welded joint can given rise to distortion brittle fracture change of the fatigue strength and stress corrosion cracking. The appropriate treatment of the welded component which reduces the peak of he welding residual stresses is believed to lower risk of the fracture during the service of the structure. In this study the impact loading in oxygen cutting frame was applied to reduce the residual stress. After applying the impact loading redistribution of resid-ual stress was measured by cutting method and the effect of fatigue was tested.

Macrostructural characteristic of the transverse cracks and fatigue behavior were studied for EH 32 TMCP 50mm thick plate welded with FACW under the variation in preheat and interpass temperatures. Transverse cracks were detected in specimen welded with preheat and interpass temperature below $30^{\circ}C$, but cracks were not detected in the specimens welded with preheat and interpass temperatures at the range of $100~120^{\circ}C$.C. The location of crack formation was found to strongly depend upon the thickness of weld layers as regard to the plate thickness.

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. Large scale gas turbine compressor is designed as multi-stage axial flow and the blade is fan-type which is thick and wide. Recently radial cracking happens occasionally at the compressor blade tip of large scale gas turbine. So, FEM was performed on the compressor blade and vibration modes and dynamic stresses were analyzed. According to the analysis, 9th natural frequency mode of the blade, which is 2 strip mode, is near the vane passing frequency by the vane located at the upstream of the blade.

Recently, in the food, paper, steel and plastic industries, plate or sheet type products have been produced by the rolling drum. Steam heating drums are introduced into plastic products facilities in order to keep the density, microstructure, and strength of material uniformly. The drum journal can not help being concentrated by stresses due to the bending and torsion. Especially the drum, heated by high pressure steam, might be exposed in the steam leakage accident. First of all, the stresses on the steam drum journal are to be analyzed, and a case study proper to the subject was performed with a scraped journal, in order to investigate the failure characteristics as well as the initiation and propagation of fatigue cracks, and most probable circumstances of crack initiation. As the result of this study, it is suggested that newly installed drum journal be thoroughly inspected at the next periodic maintenance intervals for evidence of cracking, the microstructure examination and hardness measurements to prevent steam drum from the failure accident.
