The behavior of corner crack propagation by unidirectional plane bending fatigue was investigated in the butt welded joints of SS41 and SM50 steel plates including an edge through-thickness notch. The properties of fatigue crack propagation were inspected in the weld metal, heat-affected zone, and base metal of the welded joints. Main results obtained are as follows; (1) When a plate with an edge through-thickness notch is loaded by plane bending fatigue in indirection, the 2 variant corner cracks on the upper and lower edge of the plate are initiated and propagated respectively from the notch. (2) In case of a specimen containing a corner crack, it is more reasonable to estimate the crack propagation rate by area of fracture surface than by crack surface length. (3) The rate of fatigue crack propagation becomes faster in the following order; weld metal, heat-affected zone, and base metal. (4) The specimen including reinforcement shape is rapidly failed throughout bond due to effect of its shape when the repeated load exceeds a certain cycle.

More accurate and fast inspection method for mechanical parts and structure is required to guarantee the safety. Conventional methods using compliance method, eddy current method, ultrasonic wave, acoustic emission for non-destructive testing in mechanical parts and structure have been performed as the method of contact with objects to be inspected. With this reason these methods have been taken relatively much time, money, and manpower. In this study, in order to overcome these shortcomings, we used In-plane Electronic Speckle pattern Interferometry(In-plane ESPI) that was full-field measurement and noncontact method. We detected the cracks of the specimen at a real time and measured the length of the crack by using In-place ESPI system. Finally, we compared this results with conventional microscope method.

A volume integral equation method and a mixed volume and boundary integral equation method are presented for the solution of plane elastostatic problems in solids containing orthotropic inclusions and voids. The detailed analysis of the displacement and stress fields are developed for orthotropic cylindrical and elliptic-cylindrical inclusions and voids. The accuracy and effectiveness of the new methods are examined through comparison with results obtained from analytical and boundary integral equation methods. Through the analysis of plane elastostatic problems in unbounded isotropic matrix containing orthotropic inclusions and voids, it is established that these new methods are very accurate and effective for solving plane elastostatic and elastodynamic problems in unbounded solids containing general anisotropic inclusions and voids or cracks.

곡선거더교의 복부는 교축방향의 면내응력과 면외 휨응력을 동시에 받는 구조이므로, 직선교에 비하여 플랜지와 복부의 필릿용접이음부에서의 발생응력이 상당히 크며, 또 바닥틀이나 브레이싱을 주거더에 연결시켜주는 거셋플레이트는 구조적으로 더욱 취약한 구조가 된다. 본 연구에서는 23년간 공용된 곡선거더교에서 발생된 피로균열의 발생원인을 조사하기 위하여 실제교통 흐름 하에서의 용접부에서의 응력특성을 파악하기 위하여 일련의 현장측정을 실시하였다. 이들 현장측정으로부터 여러 가지 타입에 대한 피로균열 원인을 분석하였고, 또한 주요 균열에 대한 피로수명을 평가하였다. 또한 곡선거더교 용접이음부의 구조거동 특성을 조사하기 위하여 유한요소해석을 실시하고 이들 결과를 현장측정결과와 비교분석하였다.

Reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls with L-shaped sections are commonly used in RC buildings. The walls are often expected to sustain biaxial load and Unsymmetrical bending in an earthquake event. However, there currently exists limited experimental evidence regarding their seismic behaviour in these lateral loading directions. This paper makes experimental and numerical investigations to these walls behaviours. Experimental evidences are presented for four L-shaped wall specimens which were tested under simulated seismic load from different lateral directions. The results highlighted some distinct behaviour of L-shaped walls sustaining Unsymmetrical bending relating to their seismic performance. First, due to the Unsymmetrical bending, out-of-plane reaction forces occur for these walls, which contribute to accumulation of the out-of-plane deformations of the wall, especially when out-of-plane stiffness of the section is reduced by horizontal cracks in the cyclic load. Secondly, cracking was found to affect shear centre of the specimens loaded in the Unsymmetrical bending direction. The shear centre of these specimens distinctly differs in the flange in the positive and negative loading direction. Cracking of the flange also causes significant warping in the bottom part of the wall, which eventually lead to out-of-plane buckling failure.

A recently developed numerical method based on a mixed volume and boundary integral equation method is applied to calculate the accurate stress intensity factors at the crack tips in unbounded isotropic solids in the presence of multiple anisotropic inclusions and cracks subject to external loads. Firstly, it should be noted that this newly developed numerical method does not require the Green's function for anisotropic inclusions to solve this class of problems since only Green's function for the unbounded isotropic matrix is involved in their formulation for the analysis. Secondly, this method takes full advantage of the capabilities developed in FEM and BIEM. In this paper, a detailed analysis of the stress intensity factors are carried out for an unbounded isotropic matrix containing an orthotropic cylindrical inclusion and a crack. The accuracy and effectiveness of the new method are examined through comparison with results obtained from analytical method and volume integral equation method. It is demonstrated that this new method is very accurate and effective for solving plane elastostatic problems in unbounded solids containing anisotropic inclusions and cracks.

This study analyzed causes and status of cracks to suggest preventives for welding cracks generated on fillet welding zone of atmosphere corrosion resisting steel box girder. Penetrant testing, a sort of non-destructive testing, was conducted for inspection of crack status on welding zone. As a result of test, welding cracks were found on the point of start, center and end to fillet welding zone of 32 mm-thickness. The result of carbon equivalent composition of materials was 0.452%. According to welding specification, to preheat prevent welding crack, preheat temperature of $100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$ should be kept before welding execution. It was failed to keep preheat temperature because it had been executed on winter season and the structure of box girder had wide heat transfer area. As a result of examination of time varying preheating temperature of 32mm-thickness material, it was understood that preheat temperature of above $230^{\circ}C$ on both 130mm-long sides of welded joint can prevent welding crack.

This paper presents plastic limit loads and approximate J-integral estimates for circumferential part-through surface crack at the interface between elbows and pipes. Based on finite element limit analyses using elastic-perfectly plastic materials, plastic limit moments under in-plane bending are obtained and it is found that they are similar those for circumferential part-through surface cracks in the center of elbow. Based on present FE results, closed-form limit load solutions are proposed. Welds are not explicitly considered and all materials are assumed to be homogeneous. And the method to estimate the elastic-plastic J-integral for circumferential part-through surface cracks at the interface between elbows and straight pipes is proposed based on the reference stress approach, which was compared with corresponding solutions fur straight pipes.

A new weight function approach to determine SIF(stress intensity factor) using single-layer potential has been presented. The crack surface displacement field was represented by one boundary integral term whose kernel was modified from Kelvin's fundamental solution. The proposed method enables the calculation of SIF using only one SIF solution without any modification for the crack geometries symmetric in two-dimensional plane such as a center crack in a plate with or without an internal hole, double edge cracks, circumferential crack or radial cracks in a pipe. The application procedure to those crack problems is very simple and straightforward with only one SIF solution. The necessary information in the analysis is two reference SIFs. The analysis results using present closed-form solution were in good agreement with those of the literature.
