The exact estimation of the ductile crack growth in a thin sheet would be needed in part of the commercial transport aircraft industry fields. A 2-dimensional elastic plastic finite element analysis was carried out to simulate a stable crack extension in a thin sheet 2024 aluminium alloy. Two kinds of crack modeling were used to evaluate curves of the stable crack extension. And then CTOA(crack tip opening angle) and CTED(crack tip energy density) were calculated in order to determine whether they can be used as useful crack extension criterions in a thin sheet. Results indicate that stable crack extension behaviors were simulated well and CTED is more admirable even though CTOA also is reasonable as a criterion for a stable crack extension in a thin 2024 aluminium alloy sheet.

The present paper considers the constraint effect on J-R curves under the two-parameter $J-A_2$ controlled crack growth within a certain amount of crack extension. Since the parameter $A_2$ in $J-A_2$ three-term solution is independent of applied loading under fully plasticity or large-scale defor-mation $A_2$ is a proper constraint parameter uring crack extension. Both J and $A_2$ are used to char-acterize the resistance curves of ductile crack growth using J as the loading level and $A_2$ are used to char-acterize the resistance curves of ductile crack growth using J as the loading level and A2 as a con-straint parameter. Approach of the constraint-corrected J-R curve is proposed and a procedure of transferring the J-R curves determined from standard ASTM procedure to non-standard speci-mens or real cracked structures is outlined. The test data(e.g. initiation toughness JIC and tearing modulus $T_R$) of Joyce and Link(Engineer-ing Fracture Mechanics 1997, 57(4) : 431-446) for single-edge notched bend[SENB] specimen with from shallow to deep cracks is employed to demonstrate the efficiency of the present approach. The variation of $J_{IC}$ and $T_R$ with the constraint parameter $A_2$ is obtained and a con-straint-corrected J-R curves is constructed for the test material of HY80 steel. Comparisons show that the predicted J-R curves can very well match with the experimental data for both deep and shallow cracked specimens over a reasonably large amount of crack extension. Finally the present constraint-corrected J-R curve is used to predict the crack growth resistance curves for different fracture specimens. over a reasonably large amount of crack extension. Finally the present constraint-corrected J-R curve is used to predict the crack growth resistance curves for different fracture specimens. The constraint effects of specimen types and specimen sizes on the J-R curves can be easily obtained from the constrain-corrected J-R curves.

This paper presents a comprehensive integrity assessment of welded structural components, including uniform high- and low-cycle fatigue assessment of welded plate joints and fatigue-induced fracture assessment of welded plate joints. This study reports a series of fatigue and fracture tests of welded plate joints under three-point bending. To unify the assessment protocol for high- and low-cycle fatigue of welded plate joints, this study develops a numerical damage assessment framework for both high- and low-cycle fatigue. The calibrated damage material parameters are validated through the smooth coupon specimens. The proposed damage-based fatigue assessment approach describes, with reasonable accuracy, the total fatigue life of welded plate joints under high- and low-cycle fatigue actions. Subsequently, the study performs a tearing assessment on the ductile crack extension of the fatigue-induced crack. The tearing assessment diagram derives from the load-deformation curve of a single-edge notched bend, SE(B) specimen and successfully predicts the load-crack extension relation for the reported welded plate joints during the stable tearing process.

A method is proposed to evaluate the elastic-plastic fracture resistance curve only with load displacement records without the crack length measurement in CT specimen. This method is based on the idea that the effect of plastic deformation and the crack growth can be measured only by using a load-displacement record. If we know the reference-load curve representing the hardening of specimen, then the crack extension can be calculated by the elastic compliance determined from the load ratio. The results of this proposed method were compared to those of the elastic-plastic fracture resistance curve for the ASTM standard unloading compliance method. The experimental results for two kinds of ductile materials showed that the proposed method well simulates the material J-R curves. This method is currently applied for CT specimens. but it can be extended to the other specimen geometries.

The shape of K-R curve for an ideally brittle material is flat because the surface energy is an unvaried material property. However, the K-R curve can take on a variety of shapes when nonlinear material behavior accompanies fracture. By the way, a general metallic material is nonlinear, structural steel is such. Therefore, the J-R curve form J-integral value instead of K parameters can be used to evaluate elastic-plastic materials with flaws in terms of ductile fracture that can be significant to design. In this paper, R-curve behaviors form K and J parameter is considered for the precise assessment of fracture analysis, in case of JS-SS400 steels.

Acoustic Emission (AE) technique was applied to stress corrosion cracking of Inconel 600 to investigate the AE capability of detecting crack growth and to obtain the relation between AE characteristics and crack mechanism. The specimens were heat-treated in two conditions (600$^{\circ}C$ for 30 hrs or 700 $^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr) and undergone CERT at two extension rates ( 2.5${\times}$10$^{-5}$ or 1.25${\times}$10$^{－4}$(mm/s)). It was found that the AE peak amplitude from plastic deformation was generally smaller than about 48dB (0.25mV), while Intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) and ductile fracture produced higher values of 49 to 70dB (0.3mV to 3mV). The slopes of cumulative amplitude distribution (b-values) were linearly dependent on IGSCC susceptibility and the higher the susceptibility, the smaller the b-value. The monitoring of combined AE parameters such as event rate, amplitude, count and energy can provide effective means to clearly identify the transition from crack initiation and small crack growth to rapid growth of dominant cracks.

본 연구에서는 인코넬600 합금을 열처리 상태 및 변형속도 등이 서로 다른 SCC 발생 조건하에서 정변형 속도 시험법으로 인장시켜 그때 발생되는 AE신호와 균열 거동을 비교하므로서 SCC 발생 및 진전을 AE로서 적절히 탐지할 수 있는가를 연구하였고, AE로 탐지 가능한 초기의 최소 균열 크기를 측정하므로서 비파괴시험법으로서의 적용성을 평가하고자 하였다 실험 결과, IGSCC에서 발생되는 AE amplitude 준위는 연성파괴 및 기계적인 변형에서 발생되는 것들보다 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 이것은 AE amplitude준위가 AE발생원을 식별할 수 있는 중요한 변수가 될 수 있음을 의미한다. IGSCC 미소균열의 성장 및 주균열의 형성으로부터 주균열의 성장으로 전환되는 시점을 AE로 적절히 감시할 수 있음을 보였으며, AE로 탐지 가능한 최소 균열 크기는 길이 $200{\sim}400{\mu}m$, 깊이 $100{\mu}m$ 이하의 균열인 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 AE기술은 입계 응력 부식 균열의 진전을 조기 탐지할 수 있는 유용한 방법으로 평가되며 비파괴시험법으로서의 실제 적용 가능성도 높을 것으로 판단된다.

노후 항공기는 일반적으로 다중손상(MSD)이라고 하는 폭넓게 분포된 피로손상을 내포하고 있다. 2024-T3 알루미늄합금과 같은 연성재료에 있어서 다중손상은 전통적인 파괴역학에서 예측할 수 있는 것보다 낮은 운용수명을 예측하게 만드는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중손상을 갖는 평판 구조물을 모델링한 Fastener Hole을 갖는 2024-T3 알루미늄합금 판재로 제작된 Hole/Slot type M(T) 시편에 예입압입을 적용한 후 피로시험을 수행하여 피로균열 성장지연에 의한 운용수명 증가에 대한 효과를 연구하였다. 예비압입을 적용한 시편은 파단에 이르는 사이클수가 최소 10배에서 최대 40배까지 증가하였으며, 일정진폭 하중의 최대값을 증가시킴에 따라서 그 효과가 감소함을 보여주었다. 또한, 압입에 의한 균열성장지연 메커니즘은 균열진전경로가 압입자국에 들어서면서 균열성장률이 감소하기 시작하며 압입자국의 중심을 지나면서 최소균열성장률 상태로 일정한 시간동안 균열성장이 정체됨으로써 피로수명이 연장됨을 밝혔다.

Some materials exhibit a rising K-R curve, while the K-R curve for other materials is flat. The shape of the K-R curve depends on material behavior and, to a lesser extent, on the configuration of the cracked structure. The K-R curve for an ideally brittle material is flat because the surface energy is an invariant material property. However, the K-R curve can take on a variety of shapes when nonlinear material behavior accompanies fracture. Five different hot-rolled thin plates are tested to investigate K-R curve behavior. A special experimental apparatus is used to prevent specimens from buckling.
