Critical literature review in this study revealed that there can be a significant influence of the residual stress on the engineering properties of rock. The review also showed that few number of research works on the quantification of the influence was attributed to the limitation of the two classical measurement techniques, viz, X-ray diffraction and mechanical relaxation method. In this study, a new way of approach was sought based on the assumption that residual stress up to the failure. A series of hoop tests conducted onthe samples from the limb of Carboniferous Limestone in Clevedon, England, revealed that (i) there is no preferential orientations of microcracks and minerals which have been widely believed as the main source of the strength anisotropy of rock; (ii) the anisotropy of the tensile strength of the limestone results from the influence of the residual stress; (iii) since jointing commenced within the fold, residual stored strain energy has been released preferentially in the direction perpendicular to the major joints(o$^{\circ}$ and 90$^{\circ}$); (ⅳ) during the hoop test making it much easier to create tensile fracture in these directons, viz 45$^{\circ}$ and 135$^{\circ}$)was released during the hoop test making it much easier to create tensile fracture in these directions, viz 45$^{\circ}$and 135$^{\circ}$;(v) the direction in which the stored strain energy may be presumed to be the least, required the greatest work to cause failure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of welding residual stress on operating stress in designing a nuclear turbine welded rotor. A two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element model is employed to calculate the residual stress before and after post weld heat treatment (PWHT), and then the superposition of residual stress after PWHT and operating stress at normal speed and overspeed were discussed. The investigated results show that operating stress can be affected significantly by welding residual stress, and the distribution trend of superposition stress at the weld area is mainly determined by welding residual stress. The superposition of residual stress and operating stress is linear superposition, and the hoop stress distribution of superposition stress is similar with the distribution of residual stress. With the increasing overspeed, the distribution pattern of the hoop superimposed stress remains almost unchanged, while the stress level increases.

본 체결부는 필라멘트 와인딩으로 제작된 연소관, 복합재 쐐기 그리고 알루미늄 내부 링으로 구성된다. 여기서 연소관은 헬리컬 층과 후프 층으로 이루어져 있다. 이러한 복합재 연소관의 성능 향상을 위해 체결부의 설계 변수에 따른 유한 요소 응력 해석이 수행되었다. 이때 접착 층을 난-소성 거동 재질로, 쐐기부와 알루미늄 링간의 접촉 상태는 ABAQUS의 접촉 표면 요소로 모사 되었다. 또한 해석 결과의 정확성을 입증하기 위해 내압에 의한 체결부 밀림 변위와 연소관 몸체의 원주 방향 변형도를 수압 시험과 비교하였다. 쐐기와 알루미늄 링간의 완벽 접착은 쐐기와 연소관간의 접착 층에 높은 전단 변형을 발생시켜 체결부 조기 파괴의 원인이 된다. 쐐기와 알루미늄 링간의 미 접착은 쐐기와 연소관사이의 접착 층 전단 응력을 감소시키는 반면 내부 알루미늄 링의 미끄러짐 거동으로 체결부 복합재의 반경 방향 변형을 증가시켜 파괴를 유발하였다. 그러나 쐐기부와 알루미늄 링간의 미접착 상태에서, 원주 방향 와인딩으로 체결부 지점을 보강한 경우, 알루미늄 링의 미끌어짐이 억제되어 체결부 지점의 복합재 원주 방향 변형값이 감소했다.

During the last three decades, South Korean nuclear power plants have discharged about 5,950 tons of spent fuel and the maximum burn-up reached 55 GWd/MTU in 2002. This study was performed to support the development of Korean dry spent fuel storage alternatives. First, we chose V5H-$17{\times}17$ and KSFA-$16{\times}16$ as representative domestic spent fuels, considering current accumulation and the future generation of the spent fuels. Examination reveals that their average burn-ups have already increased from 33 to 51 GWd/MTU and from 34.8 to 48.5 GWd/MTU, respectively. Evaluation of the fuel characteristics shows that at the average burn-up of 42 GWd/MTU, the oxide thickness, hydrogen content, and hoop stress ranged from $30{\sim}60{\mu}m$, 250 ~ 500 ppm, and 50 ~ 75 MPa, respectively. But when burn-up exceeds 55 GWd/MTU, those characteristics can increase up to 100 ${\mu}m$, 800 ppm, and 120 MPa, respectively, depending on the power history. These results demonstrate that most Korean spent nuclear fuels are expected to remain within safe bounds during long-term dry storage, however, the excessive hoop stress and hydrogen concentration may trigger the degradation of the spent fuel integrity early during the long-term dry storage in the case of high burn-up spent fuels exceeding 45 GWd/MTU.

Recently, Type 2 high-pressure hydrogen storage tank is studied due to fast defect detection, easy manufacturing, and cost efficiency. Moreover, the dry winding a high-strength metal wire will make increased economic efficiency compare with the wet winding method and the carbon/glass fiber winding method. In this study, a theoretical study on the dry winding of a Type 2 high pressure hydrogen tank using a metal wire was done, and the equations of the total stress on the aligned and the staggered winding for the hoop winding were derived, and the following results were obtained by using these equations. As the diameter of the metal wire, the number of winding layers, and the outer diameter of the liner increase, the maximum stress decreases, but the difference between the maximum stress occurring in the aligned winding and the staggered winding increases. As the pressure increases, the thickness of the winding layer increases, but as the strength of the metal wire increases, the thickness of the winding layer decreases. In addition, regardless of the strength of the metal wire, the thickness of the winding layer of the staggered winding was about 13.4% thinner than that of the aligned winding.

Recently, many utilities have considered interim dry storage of spent nuclear fuel as an option for increasing spent fuel storage capacity. Foreign nuclear regulatory committees have provided some regulatory and licensing requirements for relatively low- and medium-burned spent fuel with respect to the prevention of spent fuel degradation during transportation and interim dry storage. In the present study, the effect of cladding creep and hydride distribution on spent fuel degradation is reviewed and performance tests with high-burned Zircaloy-4 and advanced Zr alloy spent fuel are proposed to investigate the effect of burnup and cladding materials on the current regulatory and licensing requirements. Creep tests were also performed to investigate the effect of temperature and tensile hoop stress on hydride reorientation and subsequently to examine the temperature and stress limits against cladding material failure. It is found that the spent fuel failure is mainly caused by cladding creep rupture combined with mechanical strength degradation and hydride reorientation. Hydride reorientation from the circumferential to radial direction may reduce the critical stress intensity that accelerates radial crack propagation. The results of cladding creep tests at $400^{\circ}C$ and 130MPa hoop stress performed in this study indicate that hydride reorientation may occur between 2.6% to 7.0% strain in tube diameter with a hydrogen content range of 40-120ppm. Therefore, it is concluded that hydride re-orientation behaviour is strongly correlated with the cladding creep-induced strain, which varies as functions of temperature and stress acting on the cladding.

This paper aims to analytically investigate the effect of shear stress at the concrete-steel interface on the mechanical behavior of the circular steel tube-confined concrete (STCC) stub columns with active and passive confinement subjected to axial compression. Nonlinear 3D finite element models divided into the four groups, i.e. circumferential-grooved, talc-coated, lubricated, and normal groups, with active and passive confinement were developed. An innovative method was used to simulate the actively-confined specimens, and then, the results of the finite element models were compared with those of the experiments previously conducted by the authors. It was revealed that both the predicted peak compressive strength and stress-strain curves have good agreement with the corresponding values measured for the confined columns. Then, the mechanical properties of the active and passive specimens such as the concrete-steel interaction, longitudinal and hoop stresses of the steel tube, confining pressure applied to the concrete core, and compressive stress-strain curves were analyzed. Furthermore, a parametric study was performed to explore the effects of the concrete compressive strength, steel tube diameter-to-wall thickness ratio, and prestressing level on the compressive behavior of the STCC columns. The results indicate that reducing or removing the interfacial shear stress in the active and passive specimens leads to an increase in the hoop stress and confining pressure, while the longitudinal stress along the steel tube height experiences a decrease. Moreover, prestressing via the presented method is capable of improving the compressive behavior of STCC columns.

In all inelastic deformations time rate effects are always present to some degree. Whether or not their exclusion has a significant influence on the prediction of the material behaviour depends upon several factors. In the study of structural components under static loading conditions at normal temperature it is accepted that time rate effects are generally not important. However metals, especially under high temperatures, exhibit simultaneously the phenomena of creep and viscoplasticity. In this study, elastoplastic and elasto-viscoplastic models include nonlinear geometrical effects were developed and several numerical examples are also included to verify the computer programming work developed here in this work. Comparisons of the calculated results, for the elasto-viscoplastic analysis of an internally pressurised thick cylinder under plane strain condition, have shown that the model yields excellent results. The results obtained from the numerical examples for an elasto-viscoplastic analysis of the Nuclear Reinforced Concrete Containment Structure(NRCCS) subjected to an incrementally applied internal pressure were summarized as follows : 1. The steady state hoop stress distribution along the shell layer of dome and dome wall junction part of NRCCS were linearly behave and the stress in interior surfaces was larger than that in exterior. 2.However in the upper part of the wall of NRCCS the steady state hoop stress in creased linearly from its inner to outer surfaces, being the exact reverse to the previous case of dome/dome-wall junction part. 3.At the lower part of wall of NRCCS, the linear change of steady state hoop stress along its wall layer began to disturb above a certain level of load increase.

본 논문에서는 FEV 차량용 복합소재 연료탱크의 탄소섬유 적층두께에 따라 달라지는 강도안전성에 미치는 기여율의 영향을 해석하고자 한다. 기여율에 의한 영향을 FEM 모델링으로 고찰하기 위해, 복합소재 연료탱크의 알루미늄 라이너와 탄소섬유 적층에 작용하는 von Mises 등가응력을 후프방향과 헤리컬방향에 대하여 각각 계산 하였다. FEM 해석결과에 따르면, 알루미늄 라이너에 작용하는 등가응력 기여율은 후프방향으로는 77.5%, $70^{\circ}C$ 경사진 헤리컬방향으로는 18.11%, $12^{\circ}C$ 경사진 헤리컬방향으로는 4.39%로 각각 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. $12^{\circ}C$ 경사진 탄소섬유의 적층 두께비가 후프방향 적층 두께비의 42% 정도로 높게 유지됨에도 불구하고 알루미늄 라이너 소재에서 보여준 기여율 경향은 탄소섬유 적층의 강도안전성에 대해서도 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로, 탄소섬유 연료탱크의 강도안전성은 탄소섬유 적층의 두께보다 와인딩 각도에 의해 더 많은 영향을 받는다는 계산결과를 보여주고 있다.
