Recent deepwater offshore structures in Gulf of Mexico utilize butt welded tubular joints. Application of welded tubular joint includes tendons, production risers, and steel catenary risers. Fatigue life assessment of these joints becomes more critical because the structures to which they are attached are allowed to undergo cyclic and sometimes large displacements around an anchored position. Estimating the fatigue behavior of these tubular members in the design stage is generally conducted by using S-N curves specified in the codes and standards. Applying the stress concentration factor of the welded structure to S-N approach often results in very conservative assessment because the stress field acting on the tubular has a non-uniform distribution through the thickness. Fracture mechanics and fitness for service (FFS) technology have been applied in the design of the catenary risers. This technology enables the engineer to establish proper requirements on weld quality and inspection acceptance criteria to assure satisfactory structural integrity during its design life. It also provides guidance on proper design curves to be used and a methodology for accounting for the effects of non-uniform stress distribution through the wall thickness. An attempt was made to develop set of S-N curves based on fracture mechanics approach by considering non-uniform stress distribution and a threshold stress intensity factor. Series of S-N curves generated from this approach were compared to the existing S-N curves. For flat plate butt joint, the S-N curve generated from fracture mechanics matches with the IIW class 100 curve when initial crack depth was 0.5 mm (0.02"). Similar comparison with API X′ was made for tubular joint.. These initial crack depths are larger than the limits of inspection by current Non-destructive examination (NDE) means, such as Automatic Ultrasonic Inspection (AUT). Thus a safe approach can be taken by specifying acceptance criteria that are close to limits of sizing capability of the selected NDE method. The comparison illustrates conservatism built into the S-N design curve.

고강도강 기둥-보 접합부는 용접방법에 따라 응력집중 및 균열의 발생진전에 큰 차이가 있다. 그러므로 공장제작형 디테일에 대한 내력과 인성, 용접접합부의 소성변형 능력과 패널의 강성에 의한 변형능력의 차이 등을 비교 검토하여 설계자료로 제시하고자 한다. 실험결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 누적소성율과 소성변형배율, 내력상승을 모두 논스캘럽이 스캘럽 시험체 보다, 약패널이 강패널 보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 시험체의 2차균열 발생은 스캘럽 단부에서 발생하였으나, 논스캘럽 시험체는 보플렌지 용접 본드부에서 발생하여 집합부 상세에 따라 상이한 경향을 나타내었다.

The crucial differences between conventional rail with split-type connectors and continuous welded rails are axial stress in the longitudinal direction and stability, as well as other issues generated under the influence of loading effects. Longitudinal stresses generated in continuously welded rails on railway bridges are strongly influenced by the nonlinear behavior of the supporting system comprising sleepers and ballasts. Thus, the track structure interaction cannot be neglected. The rail-support system mentioned above has properties of non-uniform material distribution and uncertainty of construction quality. The linear elastic hypothesis therefore cannot correctly evaluate the stress distribution within the rails. The aim of this study is to apply the nonlinear finite element method using the nonlinear coupling interface between the track and structural model and to illustrate the welded rail behavior under the loading effect and uncertain factors of the ballast. Numerical results of nonlinear finite analysis with a three-dimensional solid and frame element model are presented for a typical track-bridge system. A composite plate girder, modeled by solid and shell elements, is also analyzed to consider the behavior of the welded rail. The analysis result showed buckling under the independent calculations of load cases, including 'temperature change', 'bending of the supporting structure', and 'braking' of the railway vehicle. A parametric study of the load combination method and the loading sequence is also included in this analysis.

A concentric braced steel frame is a very efficient structural system because it requires relatively smaller amount of materials to resist lateral forces. However, primarily developed as a structural system to resist wind loads based on an assumption that the structure behaves elastically, a concentric braced frame possibly experiences the deterioration in energy dissipation after brace buckling and the brittle failure of braces and connections when earthquake loads cause inelastic behavior. Consequently, plastic deformation is concentrated in the floor where brace buckling occurs first, which can lead to the rupture of the structure. This study suggests reinforcing H-shaped braces with non-welded cold-formed stiffeners to restrain flexure and buckling and resist tensile force and compressive force equally. Weak-axis reinforcing members (2 pieces) developed from those suggested in previous studies (4 pieces) were used to reinforce the H-shaped braces in an inverted V-type braced frame. Monotonic loading tests, finite element analysis and cyclic loading tests were carried out to evaluate the structural performance of the reinforced braces and frames. The reinforced braces satisfied the AISC requirement. The reinforcement suggested in this study is expected to prevent the rupture of beams caused by the unbalanced resistance of the braces.

리모델링 시장이 커짐에 따라 품질이 우수한 건축물의 내장재 및 외장재들이 개발되고 있다. 개발된 내장재 및 외장재를 건축물의 구조체에 시공하기 위해서 구조체에 하지 철물을 설치하여야 한다. 건축물의 내장재 및 외장재 설치, 데크, 무대 및 마루 등의 시공 시 지지해주는 하부 구조물을 하지철물이라 한다. 하지 철물은 수평재와 수직재를 현장에서 용접 접합을 하여 구조체에 설치하는 방법이 주로 사용되었다. 일반적인 용접접합 방식의 시공은 용접 불씨에 의한 화재 발생으로 인명 및 재산 손실 문제와 전문용접공 부족으로 인한 비전문 용접공 시공에 따른 내구성 저하 문제 등이 발생하고 있다. 하지철물의 시공방법도 안전사고 및 시공의 용이성을 위하여 용접 접합 방법에서 무용접 접합 방법으로 개선되어지고 있다. 이는 화재예방 가설재와 소화장비 및 인원이 불필요하고 볼트조립으로만 시공이 가능하여 인건비 절감과 공기단축이 가능하다. 이에 용접을 사용하지 않는 무용접 하지 트러스 공법을 이용하여 접합부 거동을 실험하여 검증하고자 한다. 또한, 무용접 접합방법으로 시공 시 볼트 체결부분에서 틀어짐 현상이 발생하기도 하여 이를 보완하는 방법으로 각관, 유격방지 브라켓, 파스터, 홈볼트 체결을 통하여 일반 볼트접합인 각관, 화스너, 홈볼트 조립방법에서 좌우간의 틀어짐 현상을 방지하고 부재간의 미끄러짐 현상을 제어할 수 있도록 하는 시스템을 적용하여 접합부의 거동을 평가하고자 한다. 그 결과 무용접 접합방식의 하지철물 골조는 지진하중저항시스템에서 내진등급에 따라 요구되는 허용 층간변위각 0.01~0.02 보다 매우 큰 부재각까지 변형한 것으로 나타나 충분한 변형성능을 확보하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This study is on the constant-current stress corrosion test related to the load stress in welded zone and non-welded zone of high tensile strength steel for natural gas transmission. The surface corrosion pattern of the welded zone of API 5L-X65 specimens for natural gas transmission showed global corrosion and narrow pitting, and the pitting was increased by increasing the load stress. Initially, the average relative electrode potential and the average relative current of the high tensile strength steel for natural gas transmission specimens was decreased suddenly, and the average relative electrode potential was higher and the average relative current was lower in welded zone than base metal. and the average relative electrode potential was decreased by increasing the load stress, and the average relative current was somewhat increased by increasing the load stress. The corrosion rate was less in welded zone than base metal, and the corrosion rate was decreased by increasing the load stress.

This study is on the constant-current stress corrosion test, related to the load stress, in both the welded and non-welded zones of high tensile strength steel that is used for natural gas transmission. The surface corrosion pattern of the welded zone of API 5L-X65 specimens for natural gas transmission showed general corrosion and narrow pitting, and the pitting was increased with load stress. Initially, the average relative electrode potential and the average relative current of the high tensile strength steel, used for natural gas transmission specimens, were decreased rapidly, and the average relative electrode potential was higher and the average relative current was lower in welded zone, compared to base metal. The average relative electrode potential was decreased with load stress, and the average relative current was somewhat increased by increasing the load stress. The corrosion rate was less in welded zone, compared to base metal, and the corrosion rate was decreased by increasing the load stress.

본 연구에서는 피로 손상된 용접이음의 피로수명 향상을 위한 방법으로 햄머피닝 처리법의 적용성을 검토하기 위하여 면외거셋 필렛 용접이음과 하중비전달형 리브 필렛 용접이음의 피로실험을 실시하였다. 본 실험에서는 면외거셋과 리브를 필렛 용접한 후 햄머피닝 처리를 하지 않은 용접그대로의 시험편, 용접후 햄머피닝 처리한 시험편, 그리고 용접그대로 시험편의 피로수명의 50% 시점에 햄머피닝 처리를 한 시험편의 피로실험을 실시하였다. 그리고 햄머피닝 처리에 의한 면외거셋과 리브 용접토우부의 형상 및 표면응력의 변화를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 햄머피닝처리에 의해 30~83MPa의 압축잔류응력이 도입 되었으며, 이로 인하여 강구조물의 제작시 용접후에 햄머피닝 처리를 실시하면 피로수명을 크게 향상 시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 이를 공용기간이 예상 피로수명의 50% 이하인 강구조물의 용접이음에 적용하여도 최소 1.3배 이상의 피로수명과 피로한계 향상효과를 기대할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this work is to find an appropriate welding approach for rotor assembly of a marine turbocharger. The friction welding and laser welding of dissimilar materials, IN713LC and SCM440 were investigated. The quality of the welded joints obtained from two welding processes was evaluated by microstructure observation, micro-hardness and tensile tests. The friction welded joint indicated a good bonding structure in the weld interface. On the other hand, the laser welded joint showed the weld defects and non-welded area in the weld interface.
