The purpose of this study is to examine the fracture toughness of the welded pipe from the viewpoint of FATT for the S38 and S42 steels used widely as the pipe material. Post weld heat treatment(PW HT) was carried out like following conditions: temperature of 67$0^{\circ}C$, I hour of holding time and cooling in furnace. Fracture toughness was obtained by measuring the crack opening displacement(COD) of the notched specimens over the range of temperature from -14$0^{\circ}C$ to -$25^{\circ}C$. Hardness values at fusion line near around were the highest and the microstructures at welded zone were coarsened. Regardless of the pipe materials, COD and temperature curves of the as-welds were moved toward higher temperature compared with those of the parents. However, COD and temperature curves of the PWHT specimens were positioned at lower temperature compared with those of the as-welds. The more heat input causes to decrease the COD values at the constant temperature. It was verified through the recrystallization treatment that PWHT was attributed to move toward lower temperature region considerably due to the improved plastic deformation at the same applied COD value of 0.3mm and softening effect. In case of the weldment of S38 steel, cleavage fracture was observed at -105$^{\circ}C$ unlike the structural steels, in which brittle fracture mode was generally shown at - 196$^{\circ}C$.

Different microstructures in the weld zone of a metal structure such as a fusion zone or heat affected zone are formed as compared to the parent material. Thus, the mechanical properties in the weld zone are different from those in the parent material. As the basic data for reliably understanding the structural characteristics of welded PCHE prototype made of SUS316L, the mechanical properties in the weld zone and parent material for a SUS316L plate are measured using an the instrumented indentation technique in this study.

스테인리스 강판은 동적기계구조물을 제작하기 위한 구조용 재료로 널리 사용된다. 또한 이들을 일체화 시키는 방법으로 가스용접을 많이 사용하게 되는데 가스용접에는 다양한 종류에 의해 구조물을 일체화 시킨다. 따라서 부재와 부재를 연결하는 용접부에 대한 응력분포 및 피로강도평가는 구조물의 건전성 및 수명을 연구하는데 매우 중요한 요소가 된다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 피로시험에 의해서 얻어지는 ${\Delta}P-N_f$ 관계를 유한요소해석법에 의해서 최대주응력으로 ${\Delta}{\sigma}-N_f$ 관계로 나타내어 피로설계기준을 정하였고, 이 결과를 이용해서 확률론적 통계해석기법을 적용해서 가속식을 추정하여 임의의 목표수명을 예측할 수 있는 신뢰성설계기술기법을 제시하고자 하였다.

The assessment of fatigue property is one of the most indispensable factors to design mechanical structures or parts. For accurately assessing fatigue property, it is necessary to precisely identify the loading condition and material property of the objective structure. However, there are many kind of problems in conducting predictive activity for a design concerned with variable factor such as fatigue phenomenons and environments. Therefore, most of the fatigue problems have been assessed from exiting experiment data and prediction method. In this study, expert system is developed for simply conducting performance assessment of weldments based on Finite element Analysis carrying out performance improvement and safety assessment of welded structures.

Tube hydroforming provides a number of advantages over conventional stamping process, including fewer secondary operation, weight reduction, assembly simplification, adaptability to forming of complex structural components and improved structural strength and stiffness. It can produce wide range of products such as subframe, engine cradle, and exhaust manifold. In this study, the effect of the heat treatment conditions such as post seam annealing (PSA) and bright annealing (BA) on the ovality and hydro-formability of steel tubes has been investigated. Hydroformabilities have been estimated by the bulging heights obtained at various processing parameters such as internal pressure, axial feeding and heat treatment conditions. The ovality and forming height are strongly influenced by material properties after heat treatments.

록볼트는 주변 지반의 지보 기능을 유리하게 활용하기 위한 부재로서 일반적으로 소요의 강도 이상을 가진 강재로 된 이형봉강을 활용하고 있다. 그러나, 부식성 요소가 많은 지하수 조건에서는 강재의 부식으로 인한 록볼트의 파괴로 터널 및 사면안정의 보수, 보강 및 유지관리 문제가 많이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하고 영구적으로 사용가능한 터널 지보재로 활용하기 위한 실질적인 거동을 모사하여 GFRP 록볼트의 거동에 대한 실험적 평가를 실시하였다. 이 연구는 GFRP 록볼트의 인장성능 평가시험 및 전단성능 평가시험을 통해 도출된 GFRP 록볼트의 구조적 특성을 바탕으로 구조해석을 통한 사면안정해석을 실시하여 안전율을 평가하였다. 실험 결과 기존에 사용하던 강재 록볼트의 대체 재료로서 충분히 터널 지반의 안정성을 확보 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The paper presents the cost optimization of composite floor trusses composed from a reinforced concrete slab of constant depth and steel trusses consisting of hot rolled channel sections. The optimization was performed by the nonlinear programming approach, NLP. Accordingly, a NLP optimization model for composite floor trusses was developed. An accurate objective function of the manufacturing material, power and labour costs was proposed to be defined for the optimization. Alongside the costs, the objective function also considers the fabrication times, and the electrical power and material consumption. Composite trusses were optimized according to Eurocode 4 for the conditions of both the ultimate and the serviceability limit states. A numerical example of the optimization of the composite truss system presented at the end of the paper demonstrates the applicability of the proposed approach.

The spacer grid is one of the main structural components in a fuel assembly. It supports fuel rods, guides cooling water and maintains geometry from external impact load and cyclic stress by the vibration of nuclear fuel rod, it is necessary to have sufficient strength against dynamic external load and fatigue strength. In this study, the mechanical properties and fatigue characteristics of laser beam welded zircaloy thin sheet are examined. The material used in this study is a zirconium alloy with 0.66 mm of thickness. The fatigue strength under cyclic load was evaluated at stress ratio R=0.1. S-N curves are presented with statistical testing method recommend by JSME- S002 and compared with S-N curves at R.T. and $315^{\circ}C$. As a result of the experimental approach, the design guide of fatigue strength is proposed and the results obtained from this study are expected to be useful data for spacer gird design.

Plastic mechanism analysis of structures subjected to large deformation has long been used in order to determine collapse mechanisms of steel structures, and the energy absorbed in plastic deformation during such collapses. In this paper the technique is applied to vehicle roof structures that undergo large plastic deformation as a result of rollover crashes. The components of such roof structures are typically steel spot-welded hat-type sections. Ten different deformation mechanisms are defined from investigations of real-world rollover crashes, and an analytical technique to determine the plastic collapse load and energy absorption of such mechanisms is determined. The procedure is presented in a generic manner, such that it may be applied to any vehicle structure undergoing a rollover induced collapse. The procedure is applied to an exemplar vehicle, in order to demonstrate its application in determining the energy absorbed in the deformation of the identified collapse mechanisms. The procedure will be useful to forensic crash reconstructionists, in order to accurately determine the initial travel velocity of a vehicle that has undergone a rollover and for which the post-crash vehicle deformation is known. It may also be used to perform analytical studies of the collapse resistance of vehicle roof structures for optimisation purposes, which is also demonstrated with an analysis of the effect of varying the geometric and material properties of the roof structure components of the exemplar vehicle.

Recently, use of Continuous Welded rail(CWR) is increased for structural, economical reason but new problem is caused accordingly and phenomenon that give threat in traveling by ship stability of train is led. According as rail is prolonged, excessive relative displacement and longitudinal force can happen to rail by temperature change and external force. Specially, buckling or fracture of rail can happen in railroad bridges because relative displacement by bridge and properties of matter difference between rail grows and additional axial force happens to rail by behavior of bridge. According to several study, longitudinal force of rail in bridge is influenced with ballast resistance, elongation length, boundary condition, stiffness of framework. Non-linear behavior of ballast acts by the most important factor in interaction between rail and bridge. Therefore, must consider stiffness of bridge construction with non-linear characteristic of ballast and stiffness of base for accuracy with longitudinal force calculation and analyze. In this study, perform material non-linear analysis for longitudinal force of CWR and three dimensional buckling analysis to decide buckling force.
