In this paper, the fracture toughness and mechanisms of failure in a random SiC-whisker/$Al_{2}O_3$ ceramic composite were investigated using in situ observations during mode I(opening) loading. $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite was obtained by hot press sintering of $Al_{2}O_3$ powder and SiC whisker as the matrix and reinforcement, respectively. The whisker and powder were mixed using a turbo mill. The composite was produced at SiC whisker volume fraction of $0.3\%$. Compared with monolithic $Al_{2}O_3$, fracture toughness enhancement was observed in $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite. This improved fracture toughness was attributed to SiC whisker bridging and crack deflection. $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite exhibited typically brittle fracture behavior, but a fracture process zone was observed in this composite. This means that the load versus load-line displacement curve of $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite from a fracture test may involve a small non-linear region near the peak load.

Unpredictable failures can occur due to the DHC (delayed hydride cracking) or the degradation of fracture toughness by hydride embrittlement in CANDU pressure tube which can result from the absorption of hydrogen or deuterium in the high temperature coolant. To investigate the hydride embrittlement of CANDU Zr-2.5Nb pressure tube, the transverse tensile test and the fracture toughness test were performed from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$ using three different specimens which have an AR (As Received), 100, and 200 ppm hydrogen. As the amount of absorbed hydrogen was increased, the transverse yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength were also increased. In addition, as the test temperature became higher they were decreased linearly. While, at room temperature, the hydrogenbsorbed specimens represented the embrittlement which resulted in sudden decreasing of fracture toughness, the fracture characteristics became ductile such as AR specimen at high temperatures. Through the observation of fracture surface using SEM, it was found that the stress state of mixed mode could be related to the fissure which was believed to decrease the global fracture toughness.

The present paper reports an analytical study of delamination fracture in the Mixed Mode Flexure (MMF) functionally graded beam with considering the material non-linearity. The mechanical behavior of MMF beam is modeled by using a non-linear stress-strain relation. It is assumed that the material is functionally graded along the beam height. Fracture behavior is analyzed by the J-integral approach. Non-linear analytical solution is derived of the J-integral for a delamination located arbitrary along the beam height. The J-integral solution derived is verified by analyzing the strain energy release rate with considering the non-linear material behavior. The effects of material gradient, crack location along the beam height and material non-linearity on the fracture are evaluated. It is found that the J-integral value decreases with increasing the upper crack arm thickness. Concerning the influence of material gradient on the non-linear fracture, the analysis reveals that the J-integral value decreases with increasing the ratio of modulus of elasticity in the lower and upper edge of the beam. It is found also that non-linear material behavior leads to increase of the J-integral value. The present study contributes for the understanding of fracture in functionally graded beams that exhibit material non-linearity.

Formation of Solid Solution and Microstructure in Processureless sintered SiC-AlN compo-site using oxides as a sintering aid at 185$0^{\circ}C$ and 195$0^{\circ}C$ Regardless of SiC/AlN ratio in composition most of sintered specimens showed he complex structure mixed with 2H solid solution and SiC particles. High sintering temperature and large AlN content in starting composition enhanced the formation of 2H solid solution in sintered specimen 2H solid solution showed the spherical shape and core-rim structure. AlN content in the core is higher than that in the rim but SiC content . The size of 2H solid solution on fracture showed the transgranular fracture mode compared with the dispersed SiC particles which showed the intergranular fracture mode.

This study was carried out to examine the effects of adding 0.3at.%Hf in Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy on the variation of microstructures and hot workability. The effect of hot rolling on mechanical properties was estimated by measuring the elongation and tensile strength after rolling at 800 and 1000 respectively. Microstructure of Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy was consisted of large equiaxed grains and it was changed to quasi-equiaxed or columnar structures by adding 0.3at.%Hf to Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy. Every specimens showed a decreased tensile strength after hot rolling compared to that of before rolling. The elongation was increased by hot rolling. Remarkable changes in elongation by hot rollong was observed such as from 1.4% to 4.5% elongation at the specimen of 0.3at.%Hf added to Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr. Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy showed typical cleavage fracture on tensile failure and hot rolling has negligible effects on fracture mode in this alloy. However at the alloy containing Hf fracture mode was changed by hot rolling from intergranular to mixed intergranular and transgranular fracture mode.

The microstructure, tensile and impact properties of forgings of 7175 aluminium alloy have been studied as a function of intermediate thermo-mechanical treatment(ITMT) process. The ITMT process is consisted of warm working and recrystallization. In the case that the billet was warm-worked above 60% below $250^{\circ}C$ and recrystallized at $475^{\circ}C$, the grain size revealed about $17{\mu}m$ which corresponds to one third of that of conventional process. The refinement of grain size leaded to the improved ductility and impact energy without sacrifice of tensile strength. It was found that the ITMT processed specimen behaved isotropically due to the near equiaxed grains. It was observed that the ITMT processed specimen showed the mixed fracture mode of transgranular and intergranular, instead of intergranular mode. This change of fracture mode contributed to the improved ductility and impact property.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength between various commercial zirconia coping and veneering ceramic, and to observe the failure mode. Methods: For each zirconia block (iJAM Emerald, LUXEN Smile block, ICE Zirkon transluzent), 10 rectangular specimens were layered with Cercon ceram kiss, IPS e.max ceram, ICE Zirkon ceramic according to recommended by the manufacturer. The shear bond strength tests of the veneering porcelain to zirconia were carried out until fracture by a universal testing machine. After the shear bond tests, failure modes were characterized visually, under a stereomicroscope, such as adhesive, cohesive, or mixed. Data were analyzed with One-way ANOVA followed by Scheffe's tests. Results: The shear bond strength ($mean{\pm}SD$) of zirconia-veneer ceramic were JC group $13.9{\pm}3.6MPa$; JE group $17.7{\pm}2.4MPa$; JI group $15.1{\pm}2.5MPa$; LC group $9.5{\pm}1.5MPa$; LE group $16.2{\pm}2.3MPa$; LI group $12.6{\pm}0.8MPa$; ZC group $16.0{\pm}2.3MPa$; ZE group $18.5{\pm}3.4MPa$; and ZI group $15.3{\pm}3.2MPa$. The One-way ANOVA showed a significant difference between groups (p<0.05). The failure mode in most experimental groups was mixed failure, except for the LC group, which showed adhesive failure, and JE group, LE group and ZE group showed cohesive failure. Conclusion: For IPS e.max ceram, the shear bond strength value was highest for all kinds of zirconia blocks. For ICE Zirkon transluzent, the shear bond strength value was highest for all kinds of veneering ceramics. Most of experimental group interfaces revealed mixed failure mode.

본 논문에서는 혼합모우드형의 공학적 파괴역학을 위한 두가지 방법의 p-version유한요소모델을 사용한 응력확대계수 산정을 목적으로 연구되었다. 두 가지 방법은 COD와 CSD방법에 의한 변위외삽법과 분해법에 기초한 J-적분법이다. 즉, p-version 유한요소해석을 통해 얻어지는 변위장을 균열선에 대해 대칭 및 역대칭 변위로 분리함으로써, 앞에서 언급된 두가지 방법에 의해 모우드-I과 모우드-II 응력확대계수를 결정할 수 있다. 제안된 방법들의 검증을 위한 예제는 인장력을 받는 중앙균열판과 중앙 경사균열판 문제이다. 균열판의 경사각의 변화와 균열길이와 평판 폭의 비에 따른 수치해석결과는 기존 문헌에 있는 이론값과 경험식에 의한 결과와 비교되어 높은 정도를 보여주고 있다 .

인장/비틀림 조합을력하에서 하중경로에 따른 Al₂O₃튜브 시편의 파괴거동을 조사하였다. 인장 후 비틀림을 한 하중경로(I)에서의 거시적인 균열의 전파방향과 파괴강도는 최대 주응력 파괴조건과 일치하였다. 전단응력(τ)/인장응력(σ)의 비가 일정한 하중경로(Ⅱ)에서의 거시적인 균열의 전파 방향은 최대 주응력 파괴조건과 일치한, 최대 주응력 파괴강도는τ/ σ의 비에 다라 일축인장 파괴 강도보다 증가 또는 감소하였다. Welbull 이론은 수누 비틀림에서의 최대 주응력 파괴 강도가 일죽이장 파괴강도보다 증가함은 예측하였으나, 하중경로(Ⅱ)에서 파괴 강도가 감소함은 예측할 수 없었다. 파괴강도가 일죽인장 파과강도보다 증가 또는 감소하는 현상은 미세조직의 관찰로 부터 미세결함면에 존재하는 전단응력이 파괴에 미치는 영향으로 설명하였다. 끝으로, 인위적 균열에서의 파괴 조건과 인장/비틀림 조합응력하의 Al₂O₃튜브 시편의 파괴 실험치에 근거한 새로운 경험식을 제안하였다. 제안된 파괴 조건식은 하중경로에 따른거시적인 균열의 전파방향과 파괴강도의 실험치와 잘 일치하였다.
