In this paper, crack detection method using eigen value analysis is presented. Three methods are used: theoretical analysis, finite element method with the cracked beam elements and finite element method with three dimensional continuum elements. Finite element formulation of the cracked beam element is introduced. Additional term about stress intensity factor based on fracture mechanics theory is added to flexibility matrix of original beam to model the crack. As using calculated stiffness matrix of cracked beam element and mass matrix, natural frequencies are calculated by eigen value analysis. In the case of using continuum elements, the natural frequencies could be calculated by using EDISON CASAD solver. Several cases of crack are simulated to obtain natural frequencies corresponding the crack. The surface of natural frequency is plotted as changing with crack location and depth. Inverse analysis method is used to find crack location and depth from the natural frequencies of experimental data, which are referred by another papers. Predicted results are similar with the true crack location and depth.

In this study, the harmless crack size(a_hml) according to the residual stress depth was evaluated using the fatigue limit of SCM440 steel by quenching-tempering(QT) and induction hardening(IH), and threshold stress intensity factor of QT steel. Because the residual stress increased rapidly as the crack depth increased, a_hml was determined at the depth of all the crack aspect ratio(As) regardless of Type I-III, and a_hml also increased according to the residual stress depth. a_hml was minimal at As=1.0 and maximal at As=0.1, but was almost similar on each Type. a_hml was small the dependence on As.

With the increasing number of aging buildings across Korea, emerging maintenance technologies have surged. One such technology is the non-contact detection of concrete cracks via thermal images. This study aims to develop a technique that can accurately predict the depth of a crack by analyzing the temperature difference between the crack part and the normal part in the thermal image of the concrete. The research obtained temperature data through thermal imaging experiments and constructed a big data set including outdoor variables such as air temperature, illumination, and humidity that can influence temperature differences. Based on the collected data, the team designed an algorithm for learning and predicting the crack depth using machine learning. Initially, standardized crack specimens were used in experiments, and the big data was updated by specimens similar to actual cracks. Finally, a crack depth prediction technology was implemented using five regression analysis algorithms for approximately 24,000 data points. To confirm the practicality of the development technique, crack simulators with various shapes were added to the study.

현장에서 콘크리트 구조물의 균열 깊이를 추정하기 위한 자기 보정 표면파 투과 측정과 측정된 투과 함수의 차단주파수를 이용하는 기존의 방법은 측정 조건에 따른 투과 함수의 변동성이 매우 커서 실제로 적용하기가 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 차단주파수와 같이 특정 주파수를 선정하여 균열 깊이를 추정하는 방법 대신에 측정된 자기 보정 표면파 투과 함수 자체를 균열 깊이 추정에 이용하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 다양한 균열 깊이에서 측정된 자기 보정 표면파 투과 함수를 주성분 분석법을 이용하여 차원을 축소한 후, 축소된 투과 함수를 인공신경망의 입력으로 사용하여 이로부터 균열 깊이를 추정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 한편, 제안된 방법의 유효성을 판단하기 위하여 서로 다른 균열 깊이를 가진 5개의 실험체에 대하여 실험적인 연구를 수행하였으며, 실험 결과 제안된 방법이 콘크리트 구조물이 균열 질이 평가에 매우 유효한 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

The object of study is analysis to joint crack behavior of cracked joint concrete pavement. In the new constructing concrete pavement, joint crack behavior was compared general joint depth D/4 with joint depth D/3 and D/5 that it's environmental effects changed temperature and humidity. After joint saw cutting joint section was predicted crack at joint depth D/5 test section from the result for monitoring development of crack. In the setting of data logger system of the joint section, it's data compared see with the naked eye. In the research, development of crack at the joint section should effect to joint saw timing latter than joint depth. This performance could be the minimum of deterioration to the early curing. In this research, At new constructing of joint concrete pavement of highway, the monitoring system be setting after finished paving and joint sawing. The system and see with the naked eye could be analysis to pavement behaviors from collecting data at the test section. This system could be monitoring shot term and long term. In this report, joint section of crack behavior analysis used to collected data during a month after paving and joint sawing.

Depths of the vertical cracks in the concrete were determined by the time of flight of the ultrasonic waves. The ultrasonic waves are diffracted at the crack tip, and the arrival time of ultrasonic waves are dependent on the crack depth and speration distance between transmitting and receiving ultrasonic transducers. The vertical cracks with 0.2-2mm width and 10-100mm depth were examined by multi-layered ultrasonic transducers. It was found that the time of flight of ultrasonic waves were proportional to the depth of vertical cracks. The depth of vertical cracks in the range of 20-100mm depth could be determined by the transient time of the diffracted ultrasonic waves

This study evaluated the fatigue limit depending on microcracks using 0.57 wt.% carbon steel with different Vickers hardness. The fatigue limit was almost constant up to a certain limit regardless of the carbon content. However, the fatigue limit decreased rapidly as the size of the crack increased. As the crack aspect ratio was smaller, the fatigue limit of the depth (point A) a lot decreased. The fatigue limit ratio of the depth decreased significantly because the crack propagation in the depth direction was fast as the crack aspect ratio became smaller. On the other hand, the fatigue limit ratio of surface cracks increased as the crack aspect ratio decreased.

Using the fatigue limit (△σ_unsm) and residual stress (σ_r) of the UNSM smooth specimen, the harmless maximum crack depth (α_hml) according to the crack aspect ratio (As) was evaluated. α_hml evaluated the reliability in the relationship between the minimum crack depth (α_NDI1, α_NDI2) detectable by nondestructive inspection(NDI) and the crack depth (α₂₅, α₅₀) that reduces the fatigue limit by 25% and 50%. All α_hml was determined by the crack depth. The α_hml of 80N UNSM with high σ_r and high △σ_unsm was found to be large. σ_r in the depth direction had a much effect on α_hml. Since α_hml>α₅₀(As=0.6-0.1) and α_hml>α₂₅, α₂₅ and α₅₀(some range) can secure the safety and reliability. Since α_hml<α₅₀ (As=1. 0-0. 6), it cannot be made harmless by UNSM. So safety and reliability cannot be secured. α_NDI1 and α_NDI2 are larger than α₂₅, α₂₅ cannot be detected by NDI. α_NDI1 and α_NDI2 are smaller than α₅₀, α₂₅ can detected by NDI.

In this paper, the effect of open crack on the dynamic behavior of simply supported Timoshenko beam with a moving mass was studied. The influences of the depth and the position of the crack on the beam were studied on the dynamic behavior of the simply supported beam system by numerical methods. The equation of motion is derived by using Lagrange's equation. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. The crack is modeled as a rotational spring. This flexibility matrix defines the relationship between the displacements and forces on the crack section and is derived by applying fundamental fracture mechanics theory. As the depth of the crack increases, the mid-span deflection of the Timoshenko beam with a moving mass is increased.

It is well known that the analytical vibration characteristic of a cracked beam depends largely on the crack model. In the forward analysis, an improved and simplified approach in modeling discrete open cracks in beams is presented. The effective length of the crack zone on both sides of a crack with stiffness reduction is formulated in terms of the crack depth. Both free and forced vibrations of cracked beams are studied in this paper and the results from the proposed modified crack model and other existing models are compared. The modified crack model gives very accurate predictions in the modal frequencies and time responses of the beams particularly with overlaps in the effective lengths with reduced stiffness. In the inverse analysis, the response sensitivity with respect to damage parameters (the location and depth of crack, etc.) is derived. And the dynamic response sensitivity is used to update the damage parameters. The identified results from both numerical simulations and experiment work illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
