This study proposes integrity evaluation method of weld zone in rails using high precision distance amplitude characteristics curve(DACC) and ultrasonic signals. For these purposes, the ultrasonic signals for defects(porosity and crack) of weld zone in rails are acquired in the type of time series data and echo strength. 6 lines in the DACC indicated damage evaluation standard of weld zone in rails. The aquired ultrasonic signals agree fairly well with the mesured results of reference block and sensitivity block(defect location, beam propagation distance, echo strength, etc). The proposed high precision DACC in this study can be used for integrity evaluation of weld zone in rails.

This study proposes the neural network simulator for the integrity evaluation of weld zone in railway rails. For these purposes, the ultrasonic signals for defects(crack) of weld zone in frames are acquired in the type of time series data and echo strength. The detection of the natural defects in railway truck is performed using the characteristics of echodynamic pattern in ultrasonic signal. And then their applications evaluated feature extraction based on the time-frequency-attractor domain(peak to peak, rise time, rise slope, fall time, fall slope, pulse duration, power spectrum, and bandwidth) and attractor characteristics (fractal dimension and attractor quadrant) etc. The constructed neural network simulator agrees fairly well with the measured results of test block(defect location, beam propagation distance, echo strength, etc). The Proposed neural network simulator in this study can be used for the integrity evaluation of weld zone in railway rails.

Pipelines have the highest capacity and are the safest and the least environmentally disruptive means for transmitting gas or oil. Recently, failures due to corrosion defects have become a major concern in maintaining pipeline integrity. A number of solutions have been developed for the assessment of remaining strength of corroded pipelines. In this paper, a Fitness-For-Purpose(FFP) type limit load solution for corroded city gas pipelines is proposed. For this purpose, a series of burst tests with various types of machined defects were performed. Finite element simulations were carried out to derive an appropriate failure criterion. Based on such solution along with existing solutions, an integrity evaluation program for corroded city gas pipeline, COPAP-CITY, has been developed.

In this paper probabilistic fracture mechanics(PFM) approach is employed to evaluate the integrity of CANDU Zr-2.5Nb pressure tubes. Modified failure assessment diagram(Jr-FAD), plastic collapse, and critical crack length(CCL) approach are used for evaluating failure probability of the tubes. Jr-FAD was extended from the Kr-FAD because fracture of pressure tubes occurs in brittle manner due to hydrogen embrittlement of material by deuterium fluence. For developing the probabilistic integrity evaluation module, AECL procedures and fracture toughness parameters of EPRI were used.

본 논문에서는 원통형 복합재 격자구조체의 구조안전성 평가 기법에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 구조안전성 평가는 유한요소해석을 통해 수행하였다. 구조안전성 평가를 위한 최적의 유한요소를 확인하기 위해 원통형 복합재 격자구조체 유한요소모델은 빔, 쉘 그리고 솔리드 요소를 사용해 생성하였다. 쉘과 솔리드 모델의 유한요소 해석결과는 서로 유사하게 발생되었다. 그러나 빔 모델의 경우, 쉘과 솔리드 모델의 결과와 큰 차이가 발생하였다. 이것은 빔 요소가 원통형 복합재 격자구조체 섬유 비교차부의 기계적 물성저하를 고려하지 못하기 때문이다. 원통형 복합재 격자구조체의 구조안전성 평가를 위한 유한요소해석은 쉘 또는 솔리드 요소를 사용해야 하는 것을 확인하였다.

인터넷을 전용망처럼 활용함으로써 비용절감과 업무효율을 증진할 수 있게 한 가상 사설망(Virtual Private Network, VPN)은 데이터의 무결성 보증이 그 핵심 기술이다. 그러므로 어떤 경우라도 VPN의 무결성 기능은 유지되어야 하며, 보안 관리자는 이를 수시로 검증하여 이상 유무를 확인 할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 정보보호 시스템을 직접 공격하는 최근 해킹기법에 대비하여 VPN의 보안 취약성 정보를 자동으로 수집 평가할 수 있는 VIES(VPN Integri Evaluation System)를 개발하며, 국제공통평가기준(Common Criteria, CC)을 기반으로 평가 시나리오를 구축함으로써 평가 결과에 대한 객관적 신뢰성을 확보하고, 보안 비전문가도 쉽게 조직의 보안성 평가에 활용할 수 있는 실용성을 가질 수 있도록 하였다.

원자로 압력용기 재료의 중성자 조사 취화 문제는 원자력발전소의 안전성 및 수명 관리에 가장 중대 한 영향을 미친다. 재료의 조사 취화를 평가하기 위하여 수행하고 있는 충격 및 인장시험 같은 파괴적 시험 결과는 석출물 크기나 분포, 전위 밀도 등, 재료 자체의 조직학적 특성에 좌우되므로 한정된 시편을 이용한 평가에는 많은 불확실성이 존재하게 된다. 따라서 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 비파괴기술을 이용한 조사 취화 평가에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현재 원자로 압력용기 재료의 조사 취화에 따른 미세 조직 변화를 분석하기 위하여 응용되고 있는 비파괴기술로는 전기, 자기, 전자기, 초음파 및 경도측정법 등이 있으나 비파괴피험 결과와 미세조직의 변화, 기계적 성질 및 취화 정도 등과의 상관 관계를 정립해야만 기존 파괴적 시험의 대체가 가능하게 된다. 따라서 현재까지 수행되고 있는 여러 비파괴기술을 이용한 조사 취화 평가 연구결과를 비교 분석하여 보다 실현 가능성 있는 비파괴기술을 검토하였다.

The integrity of steam generator tubes in nuclear power plant should be maintained sufficiently during operation. For sake of this, complicated assessment procedures are required such as fracture mechanics analysis, etc. The integrity assessment of tubes has been performed by using conventional deterministic approaches while there are many uncertainties to carry out a rational evaluation. In this respect, probabilistic integrity assessment is considered as an alternative method for integrity assessment. The objectives of this study are to develop an integrity assessment system based on probabilistic fracture mechanics and to predict the failure probability of steam generator tubes containing an axial through-wall crack. The developed integrity assessment system consists of three evaluation modules, which apply first order reliability method, second order reliability method and Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. The system has been applied to predict failure probability of steam generator tubes and the estimation results showed a promising applicability of the probabilistic integrity assessment system.

This study developed an analytical methodology for the mechanical integrity of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) cladding tubes under external pinch loads during transportation, with reference to the failure mode specified in the relevant guidelines. Special consideration was given to the degraded characteristics of SNF during dry storage, including oxide and hydride contents and orientations. The developed framework reflected a composite cladding model of elastic and plastic analysis approaches and correlation equations related to the mechanical parameters. The established models were employed for modeling the finite elements by coding their physical behaviors. A mechanical integrity evaluation of 14 × 14 PWR SNF was performed using this system. To ensure that the damage criteria met the applicable legal requirements, stress-strain analysis results were separated into elastic and plastic regions with the concept of strain energy, considering both normal and hypothetical accident conditions. Probabilistic procedures using Monte Carlo simulations and reliability evaluations were included. The evaluation results showed no probability of damage under the normal conditions, whereas there were small but considerably low probabilities under accident conditions. These results indicate that the proposed approach is a reliable predictor of SNF mechanical integrity.
