Alloy 617 is considered as a candidate Ni-based superalloy for the intermediate heat exchanger (IHX) of a very high-temperature gas reactor (VHTR) because of its good creep strength and corrosion resistance at high temperatures. Helium is used as a coolant in a VHTR owing to its high thermal conductivity, inertness, and low neutron absorption. However, helium inevitably includes impurities that create an imbalance in the surface reactivity at the interface of the coolant and the exposed materials. As the Alloy 617 has been exposed to high temperatures at $950^{\circ}C$ in the impure helium environment of a VHTR, the degradation of material is accelerated and mechanical properties decreased. The high-temperature strength, creep, and corrosion properties of the structural material for an IHX are highly important to maintain the integrity in a harsh environment for a 60 year period. Therefore, an alloy superior to alloy 617 should be developed. In this study, the mechanical and high-temperature corrosion properties for Ni-Cr alloys fabricated in the laboratory were evaluated as a function of the grain boundary strengthening and alloying elements. The ductility increased and decreased by increasing the amount of Mo and Cr, respectively. Surface oxide was detached during the corrosion test, when Al was not added to alloy. However the alloy with Al showed improved oxide adhesive property without significant degradation and mechanical property. Aluminum seems to act as an anti-corrosive role in the Ni-based alloy.

Magnesium alloys have been rapidly attracting as lightweight structural material in various industry fields because of having high specific strength and low density. It is well known that the crystallographic texture plays an important role in improvement of poor room temperature ductility of magnesium alloys. In this study, high-temperature plane strain compression deformation was conducted on extruded AZ80 magnesium alloy at 723K by varying the strain rates ranging from 5.0×10^-3s^-1 to 5.0×10^-2s^-1 in order to investigate the behaviors of texture formation. It was found that texture formation behaviors in three kinds of specimens were affected by continuous and discontiuous deformation mechanism.

The tensile behavior of the Thread-fixed One-side Bolt (TOB) at high temperatures was studied using the Finite Element Modeling (FEM) to explore the structural responses that could not be measured in tests. The accuracy of the FEM was verified using the test results from the failure mode, load-displacement curve as well as yielding load. Three typical failure modes of TOB connected T-stubs were observed, which were the Flange Yielding (FY), the Bolt Failure (BF) and the Coupling Failure mode (CF). The influence of the flange thickness tb and the temperature θ on the tensile behavior of the T-stub were discussed. The initial stiffness and the yielding load decreased with the increase of the temperature. The T-stubs almost lost their resistance when the temperature exceeded 700℃. The failure modes of T-stubs were mainly decided by the flange thickness, which relates to the anchorage of the hole threads and the bending resistance of flange. The failure mode could also be changed by the high temperature. Design equations in EN 1993-1-8 were modified and verified by the FEM results. The results showed that these equations could predict the failure mode and the yielding load at different temperatures with satisfactory accuracy.

This paper deals with structural behavior of reinforced concrete beams with high strength under fire and fire damaged condition. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the residual strength of flexural members by exposure time to fire. For this purpose, six beam specimens are fabricated and experimented. Among the specimens, four specimens are exposed to the fire for 60 and 90 minutes and two specimens are control beam that is not exposed to fire. After being cooled in room temperature, the specimens are loaded to the failure. The research result shows that the main variables of the test, concrete cover and exposure time to fire are much influenced on the structural behavior and the residual strength.

Strength evaluation was carried out for the cylinder liner of a low-speed marine engine. Calculation of temperature distribution, nonlinear structural analysis, material test, and fatigue strength evaluation are briefly introduced in this paper. Strengths of five liner models are compared, and the effect of materials experiencing different heat treatment is evaluated. Structural analysis including boundary and material non-linearities was performed for axisymmetric liner models. High cycle (fatigue limit) and low cycle (fatigue life) fatigue analyses are carried out. As results, localized high stress was occurred next to the mount line. Maximum stresses are varied significantly with respect to different liner models and different materials.

This study aims to investigate the influence of individual and hybrid fiber on the local bond-slip behavior of medium and high strength concrete after exposure to different high temperatures. Tests were conducted on local pullout specimens (150 mm cubes) with a reinforcing bar embedded in the center section. The embedment lengths in the pullout specimens were three times the bar diameter. The parameters investigated include concrete type (control group: ordinary concrete; experimental group: fiber concrete), concrete strength, fiber type and targeted temperature. The test results showed that the ultimate bond stress in the local bond stress versus slip curve of the high strength fiber reinforced concrete was higher than that of the medium strength fiber reinforced concrete. In addition, the use of hybrid combinations of steel fiber and polypropylene fiber can enhance the residual bond strength ratio of high strength concrete.

It has recently been raised main issue how solve the problem of insufficient energy. One of the solution is to increase the thermal efficiency of power generation system. For the purpose of high efficiency, it is necessary to increase the steam temperature and pressure. So, the use of modified $9{\sim}12%Cr$ steel having superior creep rupture strength and oxidation resistance is required to endure such severe environment. The evaluation of creep properties of those heat resistance material is very important to secure the reliability of high temperature and pressure structural components. Since creep properties are determined by microstructural change such as carbide precipitation and coarsening, It is certain that there are some relationship between creep properties and hardness affected by microstructure. In this study, SP-Creep ruptured test for newly developed 9Cr steel being used as boiler valve material was performed, and creep properties of the material were evaluated. Also, hardness test were performed and hardness results were related to the creep properties such as LMP and creep strength to verify the availability of SP-Creep test as creep test method.

고준위방사성폐기물 처분장은 고온, 다습, 방사선의 복합적인 환경 조건에 노출되며 이로 인해 구조물의 열화가 가속된다. 따라서 처분장에 대한 구조물 건전성 모니터링이 필수적이며 균열 탐지, 강도 추정 등을 위해 피에조 센서가 활용된다. 다만 처분 터널 및 처분 용기에 설치되는 모니터링 센서는 교체 및 제거가 불가능하기 때문에 모니터링 센서의 정량적인 수명을 평가하고 적합성을 판단해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 가속수명시험을 활용하여 모니터링용 피에조 센서에 대한 수명을 평가하였다. 고온 조건에서 나타나는 피에조 센서의 고장 모드와 고장 메커니즘을 도출하였으며 온도 스트레스가 피에조 센서 수명에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 온도 스트레스에 대한 가속수명시험을 수행하여 와이블 수명 확률 분포 및 아레니우스 가속모형을 통해 온도 스트레스와 피에조 센서 수명 간의 관계식을 제시하고 수명을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 온도 스트레스와 수명 간의 관계를 통해 보다 정확한 수명 평가를 위한 복합스트레스 가속수명시험 설계에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

GFRP 보강근의 역학적 성능은 고온과 콘크리트의 알칼리 환경에서 크게 감소된다. 본 연구에서는 GFRP 보강근이 열손상 뒤, 알칼리 환경에 추가로 노출되었을 때의 계면전단강도변화를 고찰하는데 집중하였다. 이를 위하여 GFRP 보강근 시편은 270도의 열에 1시간동안 노출된 후 알칼리 용액에 장기간 노출되었으며, 전단시험에 의하여 파괴되었다. 비교를 위하여 열손상이 없는 시편도 같은 기간 동안 알칼리 용액에 노출된 후 전단에 의하여 파괴되었다. 결과에서, 열손상을 받은 GFRP보강근의 계면전단강도의 감소가 열손상이 없는 보강근 보다 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 실험을 근거로 하여, 열손상을 미리 받은 GFRP 보강근이 알칼리에 노출되었을 때, 장기 잔존계면전단강도의 예측을 위한 2차식을 제시하였다.
