In this paper, finite element stamping analysis was carried out for the front lower arm to examine the applicability of solid element with damage theory to predict shear fracture phenomena induced by sheared edge as well as deformation mechanisms. Mechanical properties related to deformation and damage theory were determined from tensile test. Shear fracture was predicted by normalized Cockcroft-Latham model with initial imposition of the damage value along the sheared edge. Simulation results illustrated that the analysis with solid element and damage theory predicted edge profile, strain distribution, and forming load more accurately than the analysis with shell element. Simulation with solid element can also predict the shear fracture more exactly comparing to analysis with shell element and forming limit curve.

Fifteen concrete specimens were mixed and tested to explore the significance and limitation of appling the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber and steel fiber with end hook to concrete. Main parameters investigated were volume fraction and length of the fibers. The measured mechanical properties of fiber reinforced concrete are analyzed according to the equivalent fiber amount index explaining the adding amount and length of fibers. Test results showed that compressive strength of fiber reinforced concrete was higher than that of concrete with no fiber by $10{\sim}20%$. The normalized splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of PVA fiber reinforced concrete were similar to those of concrete with no fiber, whereas those of steel fiber reinforced concrete increased with the increase of the equivalent fiber amount index. In particular, much higher ductile behavior was observed in steel fiber reinforced concrete than in PVA reinforced concrete, indicating that the slope of descending branch of load-displacement relationship of steel fiber reinforced concrete decreased with the increase of the volume fraction and length of the fiber.

A lifetime prediction of holddown spring screw in nuclear fuel assembly was performed using fracture mechanics approach. The spring screw was designed such that it was capable of sustaining the loads imposed by the initial tensile preload and operational loads. In order to investigate the cause of failure and to predict the stress corrosion cracking life of the screw, a stress analysis of the top nozzle spring assembly was done using finite element analysis. The elastic-plastic finite element analysis showed that the local stresses at the critical regions of head-shank fillet and thread root significantly exceeded than the yield strength of the screw material, resulting in local plastic deformation. Normalized stress intensity factors for PWSCC life prediction was proposed. Primary water stress corrosion cracking life of the Inconel 600 screw was predicted by using integration of the Scott model and resulted in 1.78 years, which was fairly close to the actual service life of the holddown spring screw.

In the current study finite element forming analysis is performed to understand the final geometric accuracy limitations for the stamping of an automotive S-rail from four different steel sheets having tensile strengths of 340MPa, 440MPa, 590MPa and 780MPa. Comparisons between the analysis and the experiments for both springback and formability as measured by the amount of edge draw-in and the thickness distribution were conducted. The springback modes were classified according to a scheme proposed in the current investigation and the error was calculated using the normalized root mean square error method. While the analysis results show fairly good agreement with the experimental data for deformation and formability, the simulation accuracy is lower for predicting wall curl, camber and section twist as the UTS of steel sheet increases.

A study of the damage evolution laws for ductile materials was carried out to predict the ductile fracture behavior of a marine structural steel (EH36). We conducted proportional and non-proportional stress tests in the experiments. The existing 3-D fracture strain surface was newly calibrated using two fracture parameters: the average stress triaxiality and average normalized load angle taken from the proportional tests. Linear and non-linear damage evolution models were taken into account in this study. A damage exponent of 3.0 for the non-linear damage model was determined based on a simple optimization technique, for which proportional and non-proportional stress tests were simultaneously used. We verified the validity of the three fracture models: the newly calibrated fracture strain model, linear damage evolution model, and non-linear damage evolution model for the tensile tests of the asymmetric notch specimens. Because the stress evolution pattern for the verification tests remained at mode I in terms of the linear elastic fracture mechanics, the three models did not show significant differences in their fracture initiation predictions.

Recently the ductile cast iron is being used successfully to the parts for processing machinery vessels and gear etc. This study is mainly concerned with the heat treatment for the specimens of crank shaft which are made of ductile cast iron. The results obtained are summarized as follows. Comparing the mechanical properties of the specimens for the normalized ductile cast irons the specimen heat treated at $550^{\circ}C$ was the best for crank shaft of air-compressor. After austenizing at $910^{\circ}C$ it was observed that the higher the reheating temperature is the less tensile strength and the hardness became which was supposedly attributed to the fact that the amount of pearlite. Austenite matrix was reduced by reheating after normalizing and that as the reheating tem-perature went up the pearlite generated was less and the distance between the pearlites were widened at last made pearlite globular. In the comparsison of crank shaft for air compressor made of ductile cast iron with that made by forged steel the crank shaft made of ductile cast iron was superior in economical terms. And ductile cast iron could be practically enough if only the elonga-tion which was inferior mechanical property to forged steel could be reinforced by increasing the diameter of crank pin when designing the crank shaft.

The aim of this study is to examine a feasibility to substitute Ti for Ta in reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAFM) steel by comparing a Ti-added RAFM steel with a conventional Ta-added RAFM steel. The microstructures and mechanical properties of Ta-, and Ti-added RAFM steels were investigated and a relationship between microstructures and mechanical properties was considered based on quantitative analysis of precipitates in two RAFM steels. Ta-, and Ti-added RAFM steels were normalized at $1000{\sim}1040^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and tempered at $750^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. Both RAFM steels had very similar microstructures, that is, typical tempered martensite with relatively coarse $M_{23}C_6$ carbides at boundaries of grain and lath, and fine MX precipitates inside laths. The MX precipitates were identified as TaC in Ta-added RAFM steel and TiC or (Ti, W)C in Ti-added RAFM steel, respectively. It is believed that these RAFM steels show similar tensile and Charpy impact properties due to similar microstructures. Precipitate hardening and brittle fracture strength calculated with quantitative analysis of precipitates elucidated well the similar behaviors on the tensile and Charpy impact properties of Ta-, and Ti-added RAFM steels.

이 연구에서는 상부 2점 집중하중을 받는 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 휨 거동을 부분 프리스트레싱 비와 긴장재의 유효 프리스트레스에 따라 평가하였다. 절건비중 1,770 $kg/m^3$의 경량 콘크리트 설계강도는 35 MPa이었으며, 항복강도 383 MPa의 일반 이형철근과 인장강도 2,040 MPa의 3연선을 각각 주 인장철근과 프리스트레싱 긴장재로 사용하였다. 실험 결과, 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 휨 내력은 부분 프리스트레싱 비의 증가와 함께 증가하지만 긴장재의 유효 프리스트레스에는 거의 영향을 받지 않았다. 동일 휨 보강지수에서 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 무차원 휨 내력은 Harajli and Naaman 및 Bennet에 의해 실험된 프리텐션 보통중량 콘크리트 보와 비슷한 수준이었다. 한편 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 변위 연성비는 부분 프리스트레싱 비의 감소와 함께 그리고 유효 프리스트레스의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 하중-변위 관계는 비선형 2차원 해석모델에 의해 적절하게 평가될 수 있었다. 또한 프리텐션 경량 콘크리트 보의 휨 균열 내력 및 최대 휨 내력은 각각 탄성이론 및 ACI 318-08의 등가응력블록과 긴장재의 응력평가 식을 이용하여 안전측에서 예측될 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 원형 터널을 대상으로 Terzaghi 토압공식과 지반조사 자료결과를 이용한 방법 그리고 Dilatnacy 효과를 고려한 방법을 유한요소해석을 통해 검토하여 각 방법들을 비교하고 지반의 거동을 분석하였다. Terzaghi 토압공식의 경우, 이완하중이 과도하게 산정되어 과다설계를 유발할 수 있으며 지반조사 자료결과를 이용한 방법은 공학적인 토압계수가 적용되지 않을 경우 실제 현장과 상이한 거동을 보여 예상치 못한 문제가 발생할 수 있다. Dilatancy 효과를 고려한 방법의 경우, 팽창각을 통한 강도증진효과와 상대밀도를 모두 고려할 수 있으며 그로 인해 각 방법 중 가장 합리적으로 이완하중이 산정되는 것으로 타났다. 현장지반조사 결과를 이용한 유한 요소해석 결과, 터널 상부지반이 저토피일때 터널 천단부에서 인장응력이 작용하는 것으로 나타나 실제 현장 지반 거동과는 달랐다. 딜리턴시를 고려한 지반 해석방법의 경우, 지반의 이완하중이 합리적으로 나타났다. 그러나, 현장 계측결과와의 비교 등을 통해 추가적인 검증이 필요하다고 판단되며 추가 연구를 통해 정규화시킨다면 터널 설계 시 이완하중을 합리적으로 산정하여 안전하고 경제적인 설계가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
