An integral equation representation of cracks was presented, which differs from well-known "dislocation layer" representation. In this new representation, an integral equation representation of cracks was developed and coupled to the direct boundary-element method for treatment of cracks in plane finite bodies. The method was developed for in-plane (modes I and II) loadings only. In this paper, the method is formulated and applied to mode III problems involving smooth or kinked cracks in finite region. The results are compared to exact solutions where available and the method is shown to be very accurate despite of its simplicity.implicity.

The corrosion rate, behavior of corrosion fatigue and characteristic of cathodic protection for SB41 were investigated by corrosion and corrosion control tests in seawater at laboratory and coast. The main result obtained are as the following; 1) The corrosion rate of base metal (BM) is about 28-37 mg/dm super(2) day in seawater of coast. 2) The correlation between the stress intensity factor range $\Delta$K and crack propagation rate da/dN for weldment follows paris' rule in seawater : da/dN=C($\Delta$K) super(m) where m is the slope of the correlation, and is 2.02 for BM and 1.75 for heat affected zone (HAZ) respectively. 3) The corrosion sensitivity of HAZ is more sensitive than that of BM under the low region of $\Delta$K. 4) With increase of bared surace area of cathode, cathodic protection potential is increased sharply.

This article employs Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) for determination of fracture parameters of concrete: critical stress intensity factor ($K_{Ic}^s$) and the critical crack tip opening displacement ($CTOD_c$). LSSVM that is firmly based on the theory of statistical learning theory uses regression technique. The results are compared with a widely used Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Models of LSSVM have been developed for prediction of $K_{Ic}^s$ and $CTOD_c$, and then a sensitivity analysis has been performed to investigate the importance of the input parameters. Equations have been also developed for determination of $K_{Ic}^s$ and $CTOD_c$. The developed LSSVM also gives error bar. The results show that the developed model of LSSVM is very predictable in order to determine fracture parameters of concrete.

A standard method for the evalution of the fracture toughness of the high polymer materials has not been fully developed in comparison with that for metallic materials, and has not yet established. In this paper, fracture toughness tests using polycarbonate specimens were carried out. The fracture thughness tests using polycabonate specimens were carried out. The fracture toughness of commercial polycarbonate were dependent on the specimen thickness. The specimen thickness is necessary above 8mm to obtain the valid $K_{IC}$. A cumulative counts were slightly dependent on specimen thickness.

A fiber reinforced grouts were made using ordinary cement mortar and high effective water reducing agent (naphthalene sulfonate) were made by addition polypropylene fiber and carbon fiber. The physical properties of the grouts were investigated through the observation of the microstructure and the application of fracture mechanics. When the polypropylene fiber and carbon fiber were added respectively with 0.03 wt% to the grouts the compressive strength, flexural strength and Young's modulus were about 60∼63 MPa, 12.2∼12.4 MPa, 4.2∼4.8 GPa and 63∼68 MPa, 12.2∼12.6 MPa, 4.8∼5.1 GPa, and critical stress intensity were about 0.77∼0.82 MNm-1.5, and 0.80∼0.87 MNm-1.5 respectively, It can be considered that the strength improvement of fiber reinforced grouts (FRG) may be due to the removal of macropores and the increase of various fracture toughness, polymer fibril bridging and fiber bridging.

This paper presents the influence of the loading rate on the room temperature fracture toughness of a brittle Al2O3 and a SiC whisker reinforced Al2O3 composite. Dynamic fracture toughness tests were conduced using compressive fatigue pre-cracked notched round bars loaded in tension to produce a stress intensity rate K1=106 MPa√m/sec. The experimental results show that for each loading rate the fracture toughness values obtained for the ceramic matrix composite are higher than the corresponding values for the single phase alumina. In addition, both the reinforced and unreinforced ceramic are singnificantly tougher under dynamic loading than static loading. This dynamic and quasi-static fracture initiation behaviro can be interpreted by identifying quantitatively the mode of fractuer initiation as a function of loading rate.

A theoretical model for the evaluation of small surface fatigue crack initiated from a pit-type surface flaw is presented. The low frequency scattering model is developed based on the reciprocity principle for the elastic wave scattering. The effect of the flaw on the surface wave reflection from the crack is taken into account approximately by means of the stress intensity factor of cracks on a through thickness hole. The reflection coefficient of surface wave is derived for the prediction of small surface crack depth. Calculated results for pits with different sizes are illustrated.

The purpose of a fatigue crack arrest desing is to prvent a fatigue fracture of machine and structure resulted from unstable crack growth. In all cases of load transfer to second elements such as stringers, doublers or flangers, crack arrest is possible; arrest occuring when the fatigue crack reaches the second element. In the present work, the possibility of crack arrest and the design criterion of fatigue crack arrest in the variable thickness plates are examined numericaiiy by using fatigue crack arrest thresthod $\Delta$K$_{th}$of SA-508 reactor vessel steel and stress intensity factor which was obtained in the previous work as a result of 3-dimensional finite element analysis for CT type variable thickness plates having discontinuous interface.e.

This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element method analysis of repairing plate with bonded composite patch subjected to tensile load. The effect of the corrosion on the damage of the adhesive (FM73) in the length of two horizontal cracks on the both sides is presented. The obtained results show that the crack on the left side creates a very extensive area of the damaged zone and gives values of the stress intensity factor (SIF) higher than that on the right side. We can conclude that the left crack is more harmful (dangerous) than that on the right side.
