Low temperature fatigue crack propagation ratio and characteristics of the pressure structural steel which is used for the low temperature pressure vessels. Fatigue crack properties was studied at room temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and low temperature ranges $-60^{\circ}C,\; -80^{\circ}C \;and\; -100^{\circ}C$ with stress ratio of R=0.05, 0.1, 0.3 in the logarithmic relationship between the fatigue crack propagation rate (da/dN) and stress intensity factor $\DeltaK$, in low temperature case the relationship was extend to the range of low crack propagation rate. The fractured specimens were examined by SEM tested. That results showed specimen failed at low temperature exhibit the quasi-cleavage fracture formation, however, considerable ductility proceed final fracture.

The effect of applied stress, current density and heat-treatment after welding on the time to fracture, fracture behavior was investigated by the method of constant load tensile testing under catholic charging with hydrogen in E.B. welded 250,300 Grade 18% Ni Maraging steel sheet. The main results obtained are as follows: 1. All specimen showed the characteristic delayed failure and the time to fracture showed decreasing tendency with the increase in current density and applied stress. 2. Hydrogen embitterment susceptibility of notched specimen after solution-treatment and aging after welding was more increased than that of aged smooth specimen and as welded specimen. 3. Fracture surface showed a typical intergranular fracture on the border, a dimple pattern in the center of specimen and some quasi-cleavage fracture between the intergranular and the dimple.

The statistical analysis method was applied to the evaluation of fracture toughness in the ductile-brittle transition temperature region. Because cleavage fracture in steel is of a statistical nature, fracture toughness data or values show a similar statistical trend. Using the three-parameter Weibull distribution, a fracture toughness vs. temperature curve (K-curve) was directly generated from a set of fracture toughness data at a selected temperature. Charpy V-notch impact energy was also used to obtain the K-curve by a $K_{IC}$ -CVN (Charpy V-notch energy) correlation. Furthermore, this method was applied to evaluate the neutron irradiation embrittlement of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel. Most of the fracture toughness data were within the 95% confidence limits. The prediction of a transition temperature shift by statistical analysis was compared with that from the experimental data.

This study aims to investigate the effects of the microstructures and nodule type on the fatigue characteristics of cast iron. Fatigue tests were carried out in tension-tension mode using a servo-hydraulic testing machine with load control mode operating at a frequency of 15 Hz. The tests were conducted at stress ratio R=Kmin/Kmax, of 0.1. Initial crack ${\Dalta}K$ values were highly performed with increase in tensile strength of DCI fatigue specimens. ${\Dalta}K_{th}$ region, fatigue crack propagation was primarily advanced through cell boundary and in periphery of near nodule. Fatigue crack propagation rate of D2 consisted with 2Phase(Ferrite+Pearlite) was slow due to crack closure enhanced by crack deflection and occurred crack branching. The generation of crack branch was occurred due to interaction of crack-nodule. At Threshold and Paris zone, the fractographs of the fatigue fracture surface for DCI show typical striations of a ductile fracture and isolated cleavage planes near graphite. The effect of microstructure on fatigue crack propagation of GC strongly depends on the type of flake. The generation of crack branch occurred due to interaction of crack-nodule. The fractographs of the fatigue fracture surface for GC show cleavage plane along the flake graphite.

The creep-rupture and low cycle fatigue properties of transient liquid phase bonded joints of Ni-base single crystal superalloy, CMSX-2 was investigated using MBF-80 insert metal. The (100) orientation of bonded specimen was aligned perpendicular to the joint interface. CMSX-2 was bonded at 1523K for 1.8ks in vacuum, optimum bonding condition. The creep rupture strength and rupture lives of the joints were the almost identical to ones of the base metal. SEM observation of the fracture surfaces of joints after creep rupture test revealed that the fracture surfaces classified three types of region, ductile fracture surface, cleavage fracture surface and interfacial fracture surface. The low cycle fatigue properties of the joints were also the same level as those of base metal. The elongation and reduction of area values of joints were comparable to those of base metal while fell down on creep rupture condition of high temperature.

Three kinds of STS304-Zr alloys were fabricated by varying the Zr content, and their microstructure and fracture properties were analyzed. Moreover, we performed heat treatment to improve their properties and studied their microstructure and fracture properties. The microstructure of the STS304-Zr alloys before and after the heat treatment process consisted of ${\alpha}-Fe$ and intermetallics: Zr(Cr, Ni, Fe)2 and Zr6Fe23. The volume fraction of the intermetallics increased with an increasing Zr content. The 11Zr specimen exhibited the lowest hardness and fine dimples and cleavage facets in a fractured surface. The 15Zr specimen had high hardness and fine cleavage facets. The 19Zr specimen had the highest hardness and large cleavage facets. After the heat treatment process, the intermetallics were spheroidized and their volume fraction increased. In addition, the specimens after the heat treatment process, the Laves phase (Zr(Cr, Ni, Fe) 2) decreased, the Zr6Fe23 phase increased and the Ni concentration in the intermetallics decreased. The hardness of all the specimens after the heat treatment process decreased because of the dislocations and residual stresses in ${\alpha}-Fe$, and the fine lamellar shaped eutectic microstructures changed into large ${\alpha}-Fe$ and spheroidized intermetallics. The cleavage facet size increased because of the decomposition of the fine lamellar-shaped eutectic microstructures and the increase in spheroidized intermetallics.

보철물의 실패는 파절로 인해 다수 발생하게 되지만 파절 발생시 그 원인을 파악하는 것은 어렵다. 보철물의 실패를 예방하고 예후를 예측하기 위해 보철물의 원인을 분석하는 것이 중요하며, 원인을 밝히기 위해 파절면 분석을 시행하게 된다. 파절면 분석은 파절면 뿐 아니라 주위 환경(응력 상황)에 대한 분석이 동반되며, 이를 이용하여 균열 진행, 파절 양상, 파절 원인 등을 파악하게 된다. 이 연구의 목적은 임상적으로 기능 후 파절된 임플란트 고정체의 파절면 분석을 시행하여 파절 기전 및 파절 원인(하중 양상)을 밝히는 것이다. 파절된 임플란트 고정체는 3년간 강릉-원주 대학교에 임플란트 고정체의 파절을 주소로 내원한 환자를 대상으로 수집하였다. 먼저 임상 및 방사선 사진 분석을 하였으며, 시편 세척 과정을 거쳐 주사 전자 현미경을 이용한 파절면 분석을 시행하였다. 임플란트 파절면 분석 시 피로 줄무늬, 벽개 파절 등의 파절 지표를 통해 피로 파절로 인해 파절이 발생되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Friction stir welding results in low distortion and high joint strength compared with other welding procedures, and is able to join all aluminium alloys that are not considered as virtually weldable with classical liquid state techniques. The comparative study on high cycle fatigue properties between A16005-T6 friction stir welds and MIG weld joints have been performed and fracture mechanisms for the fatigue specimens were investigated. Although mechanical properties are lower than the corresponding base material, FSW joints of A16005-T6 become higher at tensile and fatigue strength in comparison with the traditional fusion weld(MIG). The fracture surfaces of FSW and MIG fatigue specimens cleary show different aspects of the fracture morphology. MIG weldments were characterized by voids and cleavage(brittle fracture) but FSW specimens showed the presence of ductile fracture surface.

In this study, we investigate the feasibility of in-situ crack propagation by using a double cleavage drilled compression (DCDC) specimen showing a slow crack velocity down to 0.03 mm/s under 0.01 mm/s of displacement control. Finite element analysis predicted that the DCDC specimens would show at least 4.3 fold delayed crack initiation time than conventional tensile fracture specimens under a constant loading speed. Using DCDC specimens, we were able to observe the in-situ crack propagation process in a particle reinforced transparent polymer composite. Our results confirmed that the DCDC specimen would be a good candidate for the in-situ observation of the behavior of particle reinforced composites with slow crack velocity, such as the self-healing process of micro-particle reinforced composites.

Construction of welding structure is greatly dependent upon welding heat cycle. Fracture toughness is decreased remarkablely due to coarse grained HAZ and inequal residual stress of three dimensions to originate in welding. Post weld heat treatment(PWHT) is carried out to increase the fracture toughness of HAZ and to remove the residual stress. There occur some problem such as toughness decrement and stress relief cracking(SRC) in the coarse grained HAZ subject to the effect of tempering treatment. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of heat inputs affecting cooling rate and PWHT under the no stress on fracture toughness were evaluated by crack opening displacement (COD), SEM and micro-hardness test. Experimental results are as follows; 1. Fracture toughness of weld HAZ is dependent upon weld heat cycle and it is decreased with increment of heat input, but the degree of improvement of fracture toughness after PWHT was linearly increased with heat input. 2. Hardness of the parent metal is not changed, but the softening of coarse grained HAZ is remarkable due to PWHT. 3. Fracture surface of as-weld show the perfect brittle fracture with the cleavage fracture, but after PWHT they appear the ductile fracture surface with dimple.
