Surface micro-crack grows along intergranular or transgranular region of crystal grains. But if it meets the barrier such as sessile dislocation and precipitates it loses straightness and deflects. Investigators had many difficulties in estimating fatigue life of smooth specimen because of the random distribution growth and coalescence of surface micro-cracks. The path of surface micro-crack has irregularity due to nonhomogeneous microstructure. Euclidian geometry can't quantify the shape of surface micro-crack but fractal geometry can. Therefore in this paper fractal dimension is measured at various stage of cycle ratio and estimated cycle ratio in 2024-T3 aluminium, alloy.

We investigated strength degradations from cyclic contact fatigue in self-toughened glass-ceramics. Hertzian indentation was used to induce cyclic contact load. Dynamic fatigue was also performed with changing stress rates from 0.01 to 10000 MPa/sec. After that, strength data and fracture origins were analysed. As the number of contact cycles increased or stressing rate decreased, severe strength degradation occurred by as much as 50% because of radial cracks developed from microcrack coalescence.

일차수응력부식균열 개시 모델과 거시적 현상학적인 손상역학 접근론에 기반한 유한요소 손상해석을 수행하여 Alloy 600TT 로 제작된 원전 증기발생기 전열관에 발생하는 일렬 원주방향 표면 일차수응력부식균열의 성장에 미치는 균열 간격의 영향을 고찰하였다. 기존 연구 결과와의 비교를 통해 손상해석 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 검증된 방법을 일렬 원주방향 표면 일차수응력부식균열에 적용하였다. 적용한 결과, 단일 균열에 비하여 일렬 균열의 경우 보다 빠른 합체시간과 관통시간을 보이며 균열 간격이 증가할수록 합체시간과 관통시간은 증가함을 확인하였다. 또한 일정 간격이상으로 두 균열이 떨어지면 합체 이전에 관통될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The fracture propagation mechanism and fractured rock mass failure mechanism were important research in geotechnical engineering field. Many failures and instability in geotechnical engineering were related on fractures propagation, coalescence and interaction in rock mass under the external force. Most of the current research were limited to two-dimensional for the brittleness and transparency of three-dimensional fracture materials couldn't meet the requirements of the experiment. New materials with good transparent and brittleness were developed by authors. The making method of multi fracture specimens were established and made molds that could be reused. The tension-compression ratio of the material reached above 1/6 in normal temperature. Uniaxial and biaxial loading tests of single and double fracture specimens were carried out. Four new fractures were not found in the experiment of two-dimensional fractures such as the fin shaped crack, wrapping wing crack and petal crack and anti-wing crack. The relationship between stress and strain of the specimens were studied. The specimens with the load had experienced four stages of deformation and the process of the fracture propagation was clearly seen in each stage. The expansion characteristics of the fractured specimens were more obvious than the previous research.

최근 압력용기, 고압배관, LNG Tank 및 선체등의 구조물 파괴에 대한 안전성을 보증하기 위하여, 구조부재의 표면결함에 대한 균열성장 거동을 파악하는 것이 중요한 과제중에 하나라고 인식되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 단일 및 복수표면 결함의 피로균열 성장을 바탕으로 표면에서 관통되기까지의 균열성장 수명의 추정등 실질적이고 일반적인 문제들을 해석할려고 시도하였다. 또한, 복수균열 문제에 적용하기 위하여 복수 언더컷의 합체진전현상을 검토하였으며 단일 언더컷과 복수 언더컷의 전파특성이 유사함을 밝혔다.

암석 내에 포함된 불연속면으로 인하여 암석은 압축하중 하에서 복잡한 거동을 한다. 이러한 복잡한 거동은 변형률강화(strain hardening), 변형률연화(strain softening), 부피팽창(dilatancy)등의 비선형 거동을 포함하는데, 이들은 균열의 성장, 상호작용(interaction), 연합(coalescence) 등을 통하여 발생한다(Brace et al., 1972; Kranz, 1983). 이와 같은 암석의 비선형적 거동을 설명하기 위하여 여러 형태의 균열모형이 개발된 바 있다(Costin, 1985; Nemat-Nasser ＆ Horii, 1982; Wang & Kemeny, 1993; Jeon, 1998).

The social demand urges us to use some equipments and structures in high temperature environment. By this occasion, the necessity of studying the fatigue crack growth is an important aspect of new materials. However, the present situation is rarely to accumulate the fatigue data. Especially, 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel and 304 stainless steel have been increased to be used under the severe condition of high temperature. And so, the fatigue estimation of those materials is important and appropriate. Fatigue tests have been carried out to examine the crack initiation, growth behaviour for the small fatigue crack of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel and 304 stainless steel at room temperature and 538^{\circ}C$. The remote measurement system which has many merits of checking and saving the image for detailed examination was applied to closely detect the crack length. Generally, the fatigue crack initiated in the form of multiple cracks and grew each other. And then it coalesced to become a major crack. The major crack governed the rest of the fatigue life. In the growing process, each peripheral cracks interact and grow for a certain period. After then, it coalesced and fractured. On the basis of the above experimental data for the small crack, a simulation program was developed to predict the residual life time and to estimate the integrity of machine elements and structures. At the same time, the simulation was extended to 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel. The simulation results have shown a good agreement to those of the experimental ones for both materials of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel and 304 stainless steel with small cracks. The NASCRAC has applied to compare the fatigue life with the experimental results. And so, it can be said that the simulation program is valuable tools to the industrial fields.

The fatigue life of welded joints is associated with crack initiation and propagation life. Theses cannot be easily separated, since the definition of crack initiation is vague due to the initiation of multiple cracks that are distributed randomly along the weld toes. In this paper a method involving a notch strain and fracture mechanical approach, which considers the characteristics of welded joints, e.g. welding residual stress and statistical characteristics of multiple cracks, is proposed, in an attempt to reasonably estimate these fatigue lives. The fatigue crack initiation life was evaluated statistically, e.g. the probability of failure occurrence in 2.3, 50 and $97.7\%$, in which the cyclic response of the local stress/strain hi the vicinity of the weld toes and notch factors derived by the irregular shape of the weld bead are taken into account. The fatigue crack propagation life was simulated by using Monte-Carlo method in consideration of the Ad-factor and the mechanical behavior of mutual interaction/coalescence between two adjacent cracks. The estimated total fatigue life, $(N_T)_{P50\%}$, as a sum of crack initiation and propagation life under the probability of failure occurrence in $50\%$ showed a good agreement with the experimental results. The developed technique for fatigue lift estimation enables to provide a quantitative proportion of crack initiation and propagation life in the total fatigue life due to the nominal stress range, ${\Delta}S$.

In this study, extremely low cycle fatigue tests were carried out under push-pull loading conditions using graphite cast iron (GCD). In order to clarify the fatigue fracture mechanism of GCD in an extremely low cycle fatigue regime successive observations of internal fatigue damage were performed. The results obtained are as follows. (1) The process of extremely low cycle fatigue can be classified into three stages which are composed of the generation, growth and coalescence of microvoids inside materials. (2) In an extremely low cycle fatigue regime, microvoids originate from debonding of graphite-matrix interface.
