Fatigue crack growth and life is estimated by various fracture mechanical parameters but affected by load, material and environment. Fatigue character of component without surface notch cannot be e valuated by above-mentioned parameters due to microstructure of in-service material. Single fracture mechanical parameter or nondestructive parameter cannot predict fatigue damage in arbitrary boundary condition but multiple fracture mechanical parameters or nondestructive parameters can Fatigue crack growth modelling with three point representation scheme uses this merit but has limit on real-time monitoring. Therefore, this study shows fatigue damage model using backpropagatior. neural networks on the basis of X-ray half breadth ratio B/$B_o$ fractal dimension $D_f$ and fracture mechanical parameters can predict fatigue crack growth rate da/dN and cycle ratioN/$N_f$ at the same time within engineering estimated mean error(5%).

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) overexpression is associated with resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The EGFR modulates DNA repair after radiation-induced damage through an association with the catalytic subunit of DNA protein kinase. DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most lethal type of DNA damage induced by ionizing radiation, and non-homologous end joining is the predominant pathway for repair of radiation-induced DSBs. Some cell signaling pathways that respond to normal growth factors are abnormally activated in human cancer. These pathways also invoke the cell survival mechanisms that lead to resistance to radiation. The molecular connection between the EGFR and its control over DNA repair capacity appears to be mediated by one or more signaling pathways downstream of this receptor. The purpose of this mini-review was not only to highlight the relation of the EGFR signal as a regulatory mechanism to DNA repair and radiation resistance, but also to provide clues to improving existing radiation resistance through novel therapies based on the above-mentioned mechanism.

표면 활성효과에 대한 비정질 규소 박막의 고성결정화 특성을 연구하였다. 증착된 비정질 규소 박막에 macro한 방법으로 wet blasting을, micro한 방법으로 자기이온주입으로 표면 활성화 처리를 행한 후 열처리를 하여 결정립의 결정화 특성을 보았다. 열처리는 관상로를 이용한 저온 열처리와 RTP를 이용한 급속 열처리의 두 가지 방법으로 하였다. 결정화의 기준으로 XRD분석을 통해 얻은 (111) 피크 강도를 이용하였으며, 결정의 품질을 비교하기 위해 Raman 분석을 하였다. 기계적 damage를 이용한 표면 활성화는 결정화를 촉진함을 확인하였으며 활성화 방법에 따른 결정화 영향 변화정도는 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다.

The alumina-aluminum solid-liquid interfaces were directly observed at atomic scale by heating the alumina single crystal in high-voltage electron microscope (HVEM) owing to the electron beam damage processes, Atomic ordering in the first several layers of the liquid was clearly resolved adjacent to the alumina surface and its relevance to the single crystal growth was examined with the real-time observations.

A process model including the effects of both the texture development and ductile damage evolution In plane strain rolling is presented. In this process model, anisotropy from deformation texture and deterioration of mechanical properties due to growth of micro voids are directly coupled Into the virtual work expressions for the momentum and mass balances. Special treatments in obtaining the initial values of field variables in the nonlinear simultaneous equations for the anisotropic, dilatant viscoplastic deformation are also given. Mutual effects of the texture development and damage evolution during plate rolling are carefully examined in terms of the distribution of strain components, accumulated damage, R-value as well as yield surfaces.

This study describes the fatigue characteristics for Al2024 alloy, which is aircraft structure material. For this work, the plane-strain fracture toughness test, the plane-stress fracture toughness test and the crack growth rates test were conducted under the standard testing method. Test equipment is a computer-controlled closed-loop fatigue testing machine. The data of each test result is very important to aircraft structure reliability estimation, life prediction, design analysis, endurance analysis and damage tolerance analysis. In addition, the fatigue crack growth threshold($\DeltaKth$) value decreased as the stress ratio increased. Also, $\DeltaKth$ decreased as the thickness increased in LT, TL directions.

As most fractures of ductile materials in metal forming processes occurred due to the results of evolution of internal damage - void nucleation, growth and coalescence. In this paper, an approximate yield criterion for voided (porous) anisotropic ductile materials is developed. The proposed approximate yield function is based on Gurson's yield function in conjunction with the Hosford's non-quadratic anisotropic yield criterion in order to consider the characteristic of anisotropic properties of matrix material. The associated flow rules are presented and the laws governing void growth with strain are derided. Using the proposed model void growth of an anisotropic sheet under biaxial tensile loading and its effect on sheet metal formability are investigated. The yield surface of voided anisotropic sheet and void growth with strain are predicted and compared with the experimental results.

Among rail defects, the transverse crack, which has been the most dangerous fatigue damage, is developed from shelling near the rail running face and grows perpendicular to the rail surface. Moreover, the crack has occurred frequently fatigue damage during winter. Therefore, to assure the safety of railway vehicles, it is necessary to investigate growth behavior of transverse crack for rail steel. In this study, fatigue crack growth behavior of rail steel and its gas pressure welded part at room and low temperature are performed. The fatigue crack growth rate of the welded part was lower than that of the base part within a lower ${\Delta}K$ region at both room and low temperature, and this difference decreases with increasing the ${\Delta}K$ due to the decrease of the fracture toughness.

To evaluate the damage of broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks), on pepper growth and yield, broad mite females were infested on pepper seedlings. In plots infested with 1, 2, and 5 females/plant, pepper growth was significantly reduced after 10 weeks with growth rates of 264, 256, and 177%, respectively, while that of control plot was 337%. Total pepper yields in the plots infested with 1, 2, and 5 females/plant were 443.9, 230. 5, and 103.4 kg/lOa, respectively, which were significantly lower than 1, 197.5 kg/lOa of the control plot. Dicofol EC, Chinomethionat WP, Pyridaben WP, and Pyraclofos WP were effective in controlling the broad mite on pepper showing over 90% mortality by 17 days after application. Although the updated reports on the nationwide occurrence of the broad mite damage on pepper showed that most damages were occurring in greenhouses between October and March, damages were observed in late May in certain locality.

The damage by the black-tipped sawfly, Acantholyda posticalis posticalis Matsumura, has been increasing at several locations in central part of the Korean peninsula. This study was undertaken at selected plots in Kapyung-gun, Kyunggi Province and Hongchon-gun, Kangwon Province from 1984 to 1987. The purpose of this study was to provide basic information for integrated control of this pest and to determine the economic threshold by investigating the pest host interactions with special reference to damage analysis. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. The damage was more severe at upper part than at lower part of the crown. The vertical distribution of dry weight of damaged trees above ground showed L-type distribution, whereas that of healthy trees showed C-type distribution. 2. The needle loss by sawfly reduced both of height and the diameter growth of the main stem. The growth reduction occurs when the needle loss is 50% or higher. About 10% of tree growth was reduced at 50% of needle loss. 3. The reduction of diameter growth was more severe at upper part than at lower part of the main stem. 4. Volume growth was reduced when more than 50% of the needles were damaged after three years of the sawfly infestation. Reductions of total volume increment at the levels 70% and 90% of needle damage were 9% and 20%, respectively.
