Dependence of dynamic fracture path on loading velocity was observed from experimental results based on the three point bending fracture in cast iron. In this study, 3D and 2D numerical simulations are used to evaluate singular stress fields near crack tip and fracture mechanics parameters. Moving finite element technique, 2D and 3D Delauney automatic mesh generation and contact-noncontact evaluation is introduced into the numerical method. Dynamic fracture thoughness is decreased with increase of impact loading velocity. Fracture mode-ratio corresponds to initial kink angle of fracture path. The numerical result shows that the maximum hoop stress criterion cannot be applied to dynamic fracture of cast iron.

This paper intends to propose design information with the result or comparing the deformation capacity with different panel stiffness specimens and estimating the plastic deformation capacity, toughness and strength of welded joint connection according to the different scallop types. The test results of the beam to column unit structure are as follow: the non-scalloped and the low stiffness panel specimen have more desirable result values than the scalloped and the high stiffness one in plastic deformation. Comparing the scallop types shows very unlikely tendency as follows, second cracking occurs at the very edge of scallop in the scalloped specimen otherwise cracking occurs bond area of welded beam flange in the non-scalloped one.

The microstructure of HAZ and the mechanical properties in weldments such as hardness and toughness were studied for mild steel and AH36 grade TMCP steel, as increasing heat input with electrogas welding process. The results of this study can be summarized as follow: 1) In the HAZ of mild steel, the width of coarse grained zone was larger than that of the nomalized zone, however in the case of TMCP steel, the nomalized zone was wider than the coarse grained zone. 2) The grain size of HAZ become coarse with increasing heat input. And at the same heat input, the grain size of TMCP steel was more coarser than that of mild steel. 3) According to the change of heat input, the deviation of hardness values was not significant, and the maximum values of hardness was not in HAZ but in the weld metal. And the hardness values in root part was higher than in face part. 4) Even though the HAZ grain size of mild steel was larger than that of TMCP steel, the impact values for mild steel was higher than those for TMCP steel, and the impact values in face part was higher than those in root part.

In this paper, fracture tests were carried out in order to investigate the fracture behavior of SFRC (Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete) structures. Thirty six SFRC beams were used in this test. The relationships between loadings, strains, and mid-span deflections of the beams were observed under the three point loading system. From the test results, the effects of percentage of fiber by volume, the fiber aspect ratio and the initial crack depth ratio on the concrete fracture behavior were studied, and the stress intensity factors, the thoughness index, and the flexural strength of SFRC beams were calculated. According to the regression technique, some empirical formulae for predicting the flexural strength of SFRC beams were also suggested.

The fracture toughness of two species, Pinus rigida MILL and Pinus koraiensis S. et Z. grown in Korea, was investigated by means of single edge notch beam specimen for the six principal systems of crack propagation in wood. The values of the fracture toughness for the LR and the LT systems ($K_{IC}$LR and $K_{IC}$LT) were found to be similar to each other and about 8 times greater than those for the other systems ($K_{IC}$RL, $K_{IC}$TL and $K_{IC}$TR) in both species. The results indicate that the characteristics of fracture toughness in three principal directions of wood (L, R, T direction) are quite different from those of bending strength for the responsible direction. To predict $K_{IC}$ value based on the variation of specific gravity, the experimental values of $K_{IC}$LT and $K_{IC}$TL were compared to the predicted values by published relationship between $K_{IC}$ and specific gravity. However, there were 10 to 25% differences between the former and the latter.
