In this paper, the embedded crack approach that crack is modeled by discontinuous line inside finite element is applied for localized progressive fracture analyses. The algorithm for progressive fracture analyses of concrete structure are enhanced by introducing nonlinear softening curve and unloading algorithm of tension-softening curve which can simulate localized fracture of concrete. The failure analysis results ar compared with existing test results for varification.

In this paper, we present a 2D multi-scale coupling computation procedure for localized failure. When modeling the behavior of a structure by a multi-scale method, the macro-scale is used to describe the homogenized response of the structure, and the micro-scale to describe the details of the behavior on the smaller scale of the material where some inelastic mechanisms, like damage or plasticity, can be defined. The micro-scale mesh is defined for each multi-scale element in a way to fit entirely inside it. The two scales are coupled by imposing the constraint on the displacement field over their interface. An embedded discontinuity is implemented in the macro-scale element to capture the softening behavior happening on the micro-scale. The computation is performed using the operator split solution procedure on both scales.

To simulate the large-scale failure evolution with current computational facilities, a simple approach, that catches the essential feature of failure mechanisms, must be available so that the routine use of failure analysis is feasible. Based on the previous research results, a simple analysis procedure is described in this paper for failure simulation. In this procedure, the evolution of localization is represented by a moving surface of discontinuity, and the transition between continuous and discontinuous failure modes are described via the moving jump forms of conservation laws. As a result, local plasticity and damage models, that are formulated based on thermodynamic restrictions, are still valid without invoking higher order terms, and simple integration schemes can be designed for the rate forms of constitutive models. To resolve localized large deformations and subsequent cracking, an efficient structural solution scheme is given for Static and dynamic problems.

Fiber-reinforced composites are extensively used in electronic, ship and aerospace applications due to their high strength and high toughess. In these applications, they are often subjected to localized heat damage due to various sources. In order to ensure their reliability, it is important to predict their residual properties using nondestructive evaluation thchniques. Fabric fiber composite specimens were manufactured with six layers of the glass-fiber prepreg and the carbon-fiber prepreg, respectively. The specimens were subjected to a localized heat damage using a heated copper tip with a diameter of 10mm at 35$0^{\circ}C$(CFRP) and 30$0^{\circ}C$(GFRP), respectively. The specimens were then subjected to tension tests while acoustic emission (AE) activities of specimens were collected. The AE activity of all specimens showed three types of distinct frequency regions. Those are matrix cracking, failure of the fiber/matrix interface and fiber breakage.

Primary localized laryngeal amyloidosis is an uncommon disorder of unknown cause that occurs in the absence of systemic amyloidosis or associated disease. There is a risk of either missing concomitant systemic amyloidosis or exhaustively investigating for this when it is not present through failure to appreciate the nature of the disease. We present 2 cases of primary localized laryngeal amyloidosis in supraglottic region. Biopsy of the mass of patients revealed findings consistent with amyloidosis, which were Congo red reaction with a apple green birefringence in polarized light fluorescence microscopy. An extensive workup for systemic amyloidosis was negative. All of two cases were treated by vaporization via $CO_2$ LASER using "Swiftlase Flshscan" for creating a wide, shallow char-free treatment site by precisely controlling ablation depth without causing residual thermal damage to tissue. The postoperative recovery of all cases was uneventful with good vocal quality and no aspiration. At the present time, the patients have no evidence of disease, recurrence and complication.

The strain localization of concrete is a phenomenon such that the deformation of concrete is localized in finite region along with softening behavior. The objective of this paper is to develope a consistent algorithm for the finite element modeling of localized zone in the analysis of the strain-localization in concrete. For modeling of the localized zone in concrete under strain localization, a general Drucker-Prager failure criterion which can consider nonlinear strain softening behavior of concrete after peak-stress is introduce. The return-mapping algorithm is used for the integration of the elasto-plastic rate equation and the consistent tangent modulus is derived. Using finite element program implemented with the developed algorithms, strain localization behaviors for the different sizes of concrete specimen under compression are simulated.

The wavelet transform is a popular tool for studying intermittent and localized phenomena in signals. In this study the wavelet transform of cutting force signals was conducted for the detection of a tool failure in turning process. We used the Daubechies wavelet analyzing function to detect a sudden change in cutting signal level. A preliminary stepped workpiece which had intentionally a hard condition was cut by the inserted cermet tool and a tool dynamometer obtained cutting force signals. From the results of the wavelet transform, the obtained signals were divided into approximation terms and detailed terms. At tool failure, the approximation signals were suddenly increased and the detailed signals were extremely oscillated just before tool failure.

The object of this work is to establish an electrochemical noise(EN) measurement technique combined with a direct current potential drop(DCPD) method for monitoring of localized corrosion cracking of nickel-based alloy, and to analyze its mechanism. The electrochemical current and potential noises were measured under various conditions of applied stress to a compact tension specimen in a simulated primary water chemistry of a pressurized water reactor. The amplitude and frequency of the EN signals were evaluated in both time and frequency domains based on a shot noise theory, and then quantitatively analyzed using statistical Weibull distribution function. From the spectral analysis, the effect of the current application in DCPD was found to be effectively excluded from the EN signals generated from the localized corrosion cracking. With the aid of a microstructural analysis, the relationship between EN signals and the localized corrosion cracking mechanism was investigated by comparing the shape parameter of Weibull distribution of a mean time-to-failure.

Many human lives and properties have been damaged by the annually occurring natural disasters. Among them, a typhoon accompanying a gale and a localized torrential downpour induce a first order damages. In this study, states, scales and other characteristics of slope failure induced by the typhoon Rusa, which damaged the whole Korea peninsular on August 30th for 3 days, were analyzed. In addition, permanent measures for slope failure are conducted to prepare natural disasters. Since the key factor on the slope failure is considered to be a rainfall. The characteristics of domestic rainfall and typhoon are investigated, and then failure forms and some characteristics of slope failure are analyzed. By comparing with the data of existing slopes, the hazard of slope failure is examined. There fundamental results could be applied to the future measures of slope failure.

본 논문은 미세 CMOS 공정의 PMOS 트랜지스터에 높은 전류가 인가될 때 발생하는 기생 PNP 바이폴라 트랜지스터의 스냅백과 breakdown 동작에 초점을 맞춘다. $0.13\;{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용해 제작한 다양한 I/O 구조를 분석함으로써 PMOSFET의 ESD 손상 현상의 원인을 규명하였다. 즉, 인접한 다이오드로부터 PMOSFET의 바디로 전하가 주입됨으로써 PMOSFET의 기생 PNP 트랜지스터가 부분적으로 turn-on되는 현상이 발생하여 ESD에 대한 저항성을 저하시킨다. 2차원 소자 시뮬레이션을 통해 레이아웃의 기하학적 변수의 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 기반으로 새로운 PMOSFET ESD 손상을 방지하는 설계 방법을 제안한다.
