Crack closure and growth behavior of physically short fatigue cracks under random loading are Investigated by performing narrow- and wide-band random loading tests for various stress ratios. Artificially prepared two-dimensional, short through-thickness cracks are used. The closure behavior of short cracks under random loading is discussed, comparing with that of short cracks under constant-amplitude loading and also that of long cracks under random loading. Irrespective of random loading spectrum or block length, the crack opening load of short cracks is much lower under random loading than under constant-amplitude loading corresponding to the largest load cycle in a random load history, contrary to the behavior of long cracks that the crack opening load under random loading is nearly the same as or slightly higher than constant-amplitude results. This result indicates that the largest load cycle in a random load history has an effect to enhance crack opening of short cracks.

The fatigue growth behavior of short cracks were studied various load ratios. Computer-aided unloading elastic compliance method was employed to measure the closure and the length of short cracks. In the dc/dN-$\Delta$K relationships. the decreasing behavior of the growth rate of short cracks is due to the decrease of crack opening ratio with increasing crack length. Irrespective of load ratio. the growth rate of short cracks can be well decribed in terms of the effective stress intensity factor range $\Delta$K$_{eff}$, which is calculated on the base of crack closure. dc/dN-$\Delta$K$_{eff}$ relationships of short cracks are found to coincide well with the corresponding long crack relationships. accordingly. the growth rate of short cracks can be predicted using that of long cracks.ort cracks can be predicted using that of long cracks.cks.

A reinforced concrete water tank is a typical functional liquid storage structure and cracks are the greatest threat to the liquid storage structure. Tanks are readily cracked due to seismic activity, thereby leading to the leakage of the stored liquid and a loss of function. In order to study the effect of cracks on liquid storage tanks, self-healing and leakage tests for bending cracks and through cracks in the walls of a reinforced concrete water tank were conducted. Material performance tests were also performed. The self-healing performance of bending cracks in a lentic environment and through cracks in a lotic environment were tested, thereby the self-healing width of bending micro-cracks in the lentic environment in the short term were determined. The through cracks had the capacity for self-healing in the lotic environment was found. The leakage characteristics of the bending cracks and through cracks were tested with the actual water head on the crack. The effects on liquid leakage of the width of bending cracks, the depth of the compression zone, and the acting head were determined. The relationships between the leakage rate and time with the height of the water head were analyzed. Based on the tests, the relationships between the crack characteristics and self-healing as well as the leakage were obtained. Thereby the references for water tank structure design and grading earthquake damage were provided.

Computer aided unloading elastic compliance method was employed to measure the closure and the length of short cracks. The most significant factor that influences the fatigue growth behavior of short cracks is the crack closure Phenomenon. dc/dN-$\Delta$ $K_{eff}$ relationships of short cracks are found to coincide well with the corresponding long crack relationships. Non-propagating behavior of short cracks at notch root can be predicted from the crack opening SIF of short cracks, $K_{op}$ , and the growth equation of long cracks in Region I and II.n Region I and II.I.

This paper describes an analysis of the stress intensity factor (SIF) of the presented cracks in LNG piping. The stress analysis used the Finite Element Method. The stress Intensity factor calculated Raju & Newmann equation and ASME Section XI method. The cracks in the flanges are found to be influenced by temperature, but the cracks of the piping are found not to be influenced by temperature. If the cracks shape in the flanges and the cracks shape of the piping are same each other, the cracks in the flange will be dangerous more than the cracks of the piping.

Accurate stress intensity factor analyses and crack growth rate of surface -cracked components in inhomogeneous materials are needed fur reliable prediction of their fatigue life and fracture strengths. This paper describes an automated stress intensity factor analysis of three-dimensional (3D) cracks in inhomogeneous materials. 3D finite element method (FEM) was used to obtain the stress intensity factor fur subsurface cracks and surface cracks existing in inhomogeneous materials. To examine accuracy and efficiency of the present system, the stress intensity factor for a semi-elliptical surface crack in a plate subjected to uniform tension is calculated, and compared with Raju-Newman's solutions. Then the system is applied to analyze cladding effect of subsurface cracks in inhomogeneous materials. The results were compared with those surface cracks in homogeneous materials. It is clearly demonstrated from these analyses that the stress intensity factors for subsurface cracks are less than those of surface cracks. Also, this system is applied to analyze cladding effect of surface cracks in inhomogeneous materials.

Edge cracks in cold rolling always influence to the quality of productions, while the "V" shaped cracks were propagated by passing the roll gap. We set up the sizes and shapes of initial cracks in simulation according to the references from real productions. Different to in hot rolling, the cracks in cold rolling couldn't be reduced from propagation automatically after generated, even if these could be reduced by changing the process parameters. In this paper, we described the affections of process parameters on the propagation of edge cracks, such as reduction ratio and tension. We predicted that the dependence of the cracks propagations of changing of process conditions and expected to gain the smaller edge cracks. By raising the reduction ratio, the cracks were propagated increasingly in both transverse and rolling directions. And as tension raise, the cracks became propagated in both directions in which transverse direction was less effectively.

For the case that center crack is surrounded by four small cracks which are symmetrically distributed around center crack, the same values of normalized stress intensity factor of center crack according to the position of the tip of small cracks are located on the smooth curve. And the stress intensity factor according to any position of small cracks can be sufficiently obtained from this curve. The plastic zones between distributed cracks are also investigated by changing the positions of nearly small cracks. The occurrence of plastic zone due to the interaction between center crack and small cracks are analyzed by finite element method. The mechanical behavior at the vicinity of crack tips is investigated by plastic areas. The changes of plastic zones according to positions of distributed cracks are drawn schematically. The safety of materials is also analyzed.

This paper proposes a method that automatically extracts characteristics of cracks such as length, thickness and direction, etc., from a concrete surface image with image processing techniques. This paper, first, uses the closing morphologic operation to adjust the effect of light extending over the whole concrete surface image. After applying the high-pass filtering operation to sharpen boundaries of cracks, we classify intensity values of the image into 8 groups and remove intensity values belong to the highest frequency group among them for the removal of background. Then, we binarize the preprocessed image. The auxiliary lines used to measure cracks of concrete surface are removed from the binarized image with position information extracted by the histogram operation. Then, cracks broken by the removal of background are extended to reconstruct an original crack with the $5{\times}5$ masking operation. We remove unnecessary information by applying three types of noise removal operations successively and extracts areas of cracks from the binarized image. At last, the opening morphologic operation is applied to compensate extracted cracks and characteristics of cracks are measured on the compensated ones. Experiments using real images of concrete surface showed that the proposed method extracts cracks well and precisely measures characteristics of cracks.
