The steady stress, modal analysis for the damaged blade was carried out to evaluate the integrity of LP 4 blade row. As a result, 4 dangerous modes for LP blade row were found in the interference diagram and it was confirmed that the nozzle passing frequency has nothing to do with the blade failure. And then the dynamic stress are analysed for the 4 dangerous modes. There are some points far out of maximum allowable stress in the cover and tenon. Therefore the blade is not safe according to the Goodman judgement. So the manufacturer have modified the design of cover and tenon. Until now, the power plant is being operated without special problems.

Fracture behaviors of pipes with local wall thinning are very important for the integrity of nuclear power plant. In pipes of energy plants, sometimes, the local wall thinning may result from severe erosion-corrosion (E/C) damage. However, the effects of local wall thinning on strength and fracture behaviors of piping system were not well studied. In this paper, the monotonic bending tests were performed of full-scale welded and unwelded carbon steel pipes with local wall thinning. A monotonic bending load was applied to straight pipe specimens by four-point loading at ambient temperature without internal pressure. The observed failure modes were divided into four types; ovalization, crack initiation/growth after ovalization, local buckling and crack initiation/growth after local buckling. Also, the strengths of welded and unwelded piping system with local wall thinning were evaluated.

This paper describes a ultrasonic method for direct measurement of tool wear in turning operations. An integrated single ultrasonic transducer operating at a frequency of 10MHz is placed in contact with the insert tip. The change in amount of the reflected energy form the nose and flanks of the tool can be related to the level of tool wear and thr mechanical integrity of the tool. As a results, a correlation exists between the untrasonic measurement and tool wear and that it is tool dependent.

In general, structural integrity of rolling stock structures should last more than 25 years. During the lifetime corrosive degradation occurs. For structural design and diagnosis, quantitative relationship between corrosive degradation and variation of mechanical properties such as tensile strength and fatigue strength is needed. In this study, first of all we established the atmospheric corrosion test procedure. At regular intervals using specimens of SM490A and SS400 on the atmospheric corrosion test bed, we carried out tensile and fatigue tests. The fatigue strength decreases as the atmospheric corrosion period increases. And we studied the effect of post-weld heat treatment on the tensile and fatigue behaviour.

Seismic qualification by test is widely used as a way to show the integrity and functionality of equipment that is related to the overall safety of nuclear power plants. Another means of seismic qualification is by direct integration analysis. Both approaches require a series of time histories as an input. However, in most cases, the possibility of using real earthquake data is limited. Thus, artificial time histories are widely used instead. In many cases, however, response spectra are given. Thus, most of the artificial time histories are generated from the given response spectra. Obtaining the response spectrum from a given time history is straightforward. However, the procedure for generating artificial time histories from a given response spectrum is difficult and complex to understand. Thus, this paper presents a simple time-domain method for generating a time history from a given response spectrum; the method was shown to satisfy conditions derived from nuclear regulatory guidance.

It is well known that mechanisms of fracture and crack growth depend upon material characteristics such as fracture toughness, environmental condition, crack geometry and mechanical properties. It seems to be very important to investighate the effects of the above factors on the behavior of structural components which contain flaws for the detailed evaluation of their integrity. In this experimental research, fracture behaviors of SK-5 high carbon steel was investigated by using Acoustic Emission(AE) technique. Fracturing processes of materials were estimated through both the tension test with nominal specimens and the fracture test with compact tension specimens. The critical applied load which corresponds to the crack initiation and propagation is very improtant for the determination of yield strength of fracture toughness. The critical applied load($P_Q$) was determined through AE method and the source of AE signal was estimated by fractography analysis. The experimental results may contribute to the safety analyses and strength evaluation of structures.

An engine cradle is a quite important structural assembly for supporting the engine, suspension and steering parts of vehicle and absorbing the vibrations during the drive and the shock in the car crash. Recently, the engine cradle having structural stiffness enough to support the surrounding parts and absorbing the shock of collision has been widely used. The hydroforming technology may cause many advantages to automotive applications in terms of better structural integrity of parts, reduction of production cost, weight reduction, material saving, reduction in the number of joining processes and improvement of reliability. We focus on increasing the durability and the dynamic performance of engine cradle. For realizing this objective, several optimization design techniques such as shape, size, and topology optimization are performed. This optimization scheme based on the sensitivity can provide distinguished performance improvement in using hydroforming.

In general structures, cleavage fracture may develop under the low constraint condition of larger scale yielding with a shallow surface crack. However, standard procedures for fracture toughness testing require very severe restrictions of specimen geometry. So the standard fracture toughness data makes the integrity assessment irrationally conservative. In this paper, cleavage fracture toughness tests have been made on side-grooved PCVN (precracked charpy V-notch) type specimens (10 by 10 by 55 mm) with varying crack depth, The constraint effects on the crack depth ratios are quantitatively evaluated by scaling model and Weibull stress method using 3-D finite clement method, After correction of constraint loss due to shallow crack depths, the statistical size effect are also corrected according to the standard ASTM E 1921 procedure, The results snowed a good agreement in the geometry correction regardless of the crack size, while some over-corrections were observed in the corrected values of $T_0$.

An micro-probe tip must be manufactured using thin film to evaluate integrity of the semiconductor with narrow distance between pads. In this study, fatigue tests were performed for BeCu thin film which is used in micro-probe tip of semiconductor test machine. The thin film was manufactured by electro plating process, and the specimens were fabricated by wire-cut electric discharge method to make hour glass type specimen of $5000{\mu}m$ width, $29200{\mu}m$ length and $30{\mu}m$ thickness. The fatigue test of load control with 10Hz frequency was performed, in ambient environment. The fatigue cycles were tension-tension with mean stress, at stress ratio, R=0.1.
