This paper presents ductile fracture simulation of full-scale cracked pipe for nuclear piping materials using the cohesive zone model (CZM). The main objective of this study is to investigate the applicability of CZM to predict ductile fracture of cracked pipes with various crack shapes and under quasi-static/dynamic loadings. The transferability of the traction-separation (T-S) curve from a small-scale specimen to a full-scale pipe is demonstrated by simulating small- and full-scale tests. T-S curves are calibrated by comparing experimental data of compact tension specimens with finite element analysis results. The calibrated T-S curves are utilized to predict the fracture behavior of cracked pipes. Three types of full-scale pipe tests are considered: pipe with circumferential through-wall crack under quasistatic/dynamic loadings, and with 360° internal surface crack under quasi-static loading. Computational results using the calibrated T-S curves show a good agreement with experimental data, demonstrating the transferability of the T-S curves from small-scale specimen.

In the study, we have developed a straightening system for 304 micro wires that are normally used in the medical and semi-conductor fields. To apply heat to the micro wires, we introduced the direct wire heating method which generates the thermal energy by the electrical resistance of the wire itself. To avoid the deterioration of the wire surface by the environment, such as the oxidation or the hydration, the $N_2$ gas was filled in the glass pipe in which the straightening process was being performed. A precision tension meter was also attached to control the tension of the wire during the heating and straightening process. In order to control the straightening process, several experimental investigations with varying the tension, the feeding velocity and the temperature (current) was carried out. As a result of experiments, we obtained the optimal processing conditions satisfying the straightness requirement of the micro wires.

Due to increase in demand of stable and long pipelines in natural gas industry, wide range of researches are being performed on automation welding to improved welding quality with respect to weld process parameters in real time measurement. In particular, the coupling between the pipe manufacturing process and location of the weld seam, the measured size of the gap that exists in the weld position and the weld angle depending on whether the movement of molten weld. This is due to absence of controlling welding penetration position, depending on the required size of the angle of the setting. In addition, the optimum welding conditions must be considered while selecting, the correlation between these variables and the systematic correlation has not yet been identified. Therefore, in most welded pipe root-pass weld solely depends on the experience of workers in relation to secure a stable weld quality. In this study, automation welding system is implemented to select a suitable root-pass STT (Surface Tension Transfer) welding method using the optimal welding conditions. To successfully accomplish this objective, there were various welding conditions used for welding experiment to confirm that the assessment required for construction through the pipe and automatic welding process is proposed to optimize this plan.

최근 들어 인천대교 등 다수의 사장교가 공용 또는 시공 중에 있으며 이러한 시점에서 국내 사장교의 기술력을 살펴본다면 시공기술은 눈에 띄게 발전하였지만 설계기술은 아직 국외 의존도가 매우 높은 실정이다. 사장교 핵심설계요소들 중 케이블 정착구조는 강력한 케이블 장력의 작용으로 국부적인 응력집중현상이 발생하므로 안전성 확보를 위해서는 반드시 국부상세해석에 의한 설계가 요구된다. 하지만 명확한 설계기준이나 이론적 설계 없이 유한요소해석에만 의존하여 설계하는 실정이며 정착구조의 이론적 기본메커니즘을 이해하지 못한 채 유한요소해석 결과에만 의존, 엔지니어의 판단력이 흐려지는 부작용을 가져오고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 케이블 정착구조 가이드 파이프앵커 형식 중 정착강관의 기존 이론적인 설계절차를 나타내고 추가적으로 고려해야 할 사항들을 국내외 설계기준에 따라 정리하고 보완 설계절차를 제시하였다.

It is of often important to accurately predict the flow-induced vibration or dynamic instability of a pipeline conveying internal high speed flow in advance, which requires a very accurate solution method. In this study, first the dynamic equations for the axial and transverse vibrations of a pipeline are reduced from a set of pipe-dynamic equations derived in the previous study and then the spectral element model is formulated. The accuracy of the spectral element method (SEM) is then verified by comparing its results with the results obtained by finite element method (FEM). It is shown that the present spectral element model provides very accurate solutions by using an extremely small number of degrees-of-freedom when compared with FEM. The dynamics of a sample pipeline is investigated with varying the axial tension and the speed of internal flow.

It is important to calculate the exact crack opening area in the cracked pipe subjected to axial force and bending moment. Among many solutions for obtaining the crack opening displacement, Paris-Tada's expression, which is derived from energy method, is open used in fracture analysis for piping crack problems because of its simplicity. But Paris-Tada's equation has conservativeness when radius over thickness ratio(R/t) is ten or less, for it is based on the stress intensity factor solution having a compliance function derived from a simple shell theory. In this paper we derived a new expression using a different stress intensity factor solution which is able to consider the variation of compliance through wall thickness in a cracked pipe. Conservativeness of both equations was examined and compared to finite element analysis results. Conservativeness of the new equation is decreased when R/t > 10 and increased slightly when R/t < 10 compared with Paris-Tada's. But Both equations were highly conservative when R/t < 10 compared with finite element analysis results.

Filament winding method is widely used for composite fabrications using low viscosity liquid for-mation and processing asymmetrical structures of pressure vessel pipe rocket motor case etc. The filament winding method is affected by several parameters such as pot life of process time viscosi-ty of resin filament winding temperature and schedules curing condition and post curing condi-tion of resin. To develope high functional composite materials the rotation(5, 15, 20, 30rpm) of the winding machine was controlled by D.C motor. And the wiper to give proper tension was equipped between strand and resin bath. The resin is hooked by the design wiper. The adequate cure schedule was found by DSC. NOL ring test is carried out to investigate the basic physical properties such as design technology. The void contents in filament winding is generally higher than that of the prepreg laminated plate. These high contents of void can make a crack in resin in spite of low deformation. These problem was solved by giving tension in processing. To improve the characteristics of fiber volume fraction void contents resin/fiber bonding the winding speedc is changed under constant tension. It was found that resin impregnation was not different from in fiber contents void contents at the range of 0.5~1kg tension but it was found that resin was not impregnated at the above of 1.5kg tension. In burst test a pure PE liner was failed at a nozzle part under the $14kg/\textrm{cm}^2$ pressure but a pressure vessel of CNG was failed at a cylinder part under the $200kg/\textrm{cm}^2$ pressure.

본 연구는 변형률 기반 설계를 위해 개발된 X80 라인파이프의 인장 변형성능을 검증하기 위해 금속의 비선형 거동을 해석할 수 있는 대표적 경험적인 모델인 GTN (Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman) 모델을 이용한 비선형 유한요소 해석기법을 제시한다. GTN 모델은 재하과정중 금속 내부에서 발생하는 공극의 생성, 성장, 합체에 대한 모델링을 통해 재료의 손상거동을 묘사하는데, 본 연구에서는 GTN 모델에 대한 사용자 정의 재료모델을 작성하고 상용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS에 연동시켜 강재의 비선형 손상거동을 해석하였다. 비선형 손상해석을 위한 모재와 용접용 재료의 재료상수는 원형봉과 전두께 시편에 대한 인장시험 결과를 수치모사하여 결정하였으며, 결정된 재료상수를 이용하여 SENT (Single Edge Notch Tension) 시험과 CWPT (Curved Wide Plate Test)를 수치모사하였다. 수치해석 결과로부터 인장 변형성능을 산정하고 이를 시험결과 및 기존의 경험공식과 비교한 결과 본 연구에서 개발한 수치기법이 X80 라인파이프 부재의 인장 변형성능을 신뢰도 높게 평가하는 것을 확인하였으며, 결과적으로 변형률 기반 설계에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

부식된 관로의 상태를 평가하기 위해서 수행하는 직접평가 중 인장 실험을 수행하였다. 부식된 관로에서 절삭 가공하여 인장 시편을 취득하면, 관로의 관경에 따라 곡률이 변화하고 실제 평평한 시편의 거동과 달라질 수 있어 이를 확인하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 시편의 전 영역이 평평한 경우, 곡률이 있는 경우 그리고 시편에 곡률이 존재하면서 그립 부분만 평평하게 가공한 경우에 대해서 부식이 없는 경우와 부식이 존재하는 경우(두께 대비 25, 50 %의 단일 부식)로 나누어 해석을 진행하였다. 부식이 존재하게 되면 응력 집중이 단면 감소부에서 확실하게 나타나 그립의 가공 여부가 시편의 인장거동에 영향을 거의 주지 않는다는 것을 해석을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 실제 부식이 있는 시편에 대하여 3D 스캔을 진행하고 이를 반영한 해석 모델을 만들어 실험 결과와 비교 분석하였다.
