Recently just as in the automobile industry, shipbuilders also try to reduce material consumption and weight in order to keep operating costs as low as possible and improve the speed of production. Naturally industry is ever searching for welding techniques offering higher power, higher productivity and a better quality. Therefore it is important to have a details research based on the various welding process applied to steel and other materials, and to have the ability both to counsel interested companies and to evaluate the feasibility of implementation of this process. Submerged-arc welding (SAW) process is usually used about 20% of shipbuilding. Similar to gas metal arc welding(GMAW), SAW involves formation of an arc between a continuously-fed bare wire electrode and the work-piece. The process uses a flux to generate protective gases and slag, and to add alloying elements to the weld pool and a shielding gas is not required. Prior to welding, a thin layer of flux powder is placed on the work-piece surface. The arc moves along the joint line and as it does so, excess flux is recycled via a hopper. Remaining fused slag layers can be easily removed after welding. As the arc is completely covered by the flux layer, heat loss is extremely low. This produces a thermal efficiency as high as 60% (compared with 25% for manual metal arc). SAW process offers many advantages compared to conventional CO2 welding process. The main advantages of SAW are higher welding speed, facility of workers, less deformation and better than bead shape & strength of welded joint because there is no visible arc light, welding is spatter-free, fully-mechanized or automatic process, high travel speed, and depth of penetration and chemical composition of the deposited weld metal. However it is difficult to application of thin plate according to high heat input. So this paper has been focused on application of the field according to SAW process for thin plate in ship-structures. For this purpose, It has been decided to optimized welding condition by experiments, relationship between welding parameters and bead shapes, mechanical test such as tensile and bending. Also finite element(FE) based numerical comparison of thermal history and welding residual stress in A-grade 3.2 thickness steel of SAW been made in this study. From the result of this study, It makes substantial saving of time and manufacturing cost and raises the quality of product.

High strength 7xxx aluminum alloys have been applied to automotive bump back beam of the some limited model for light weight vehicle. The aluminum bump back beam is manufactured through extrusion, bending and welding. The residual stress given on these processes combines with the corrosive atmosphere on the road spreaded with corrosive chemicals to melt snow to occur the stress corrosion cracking. The composition of commercial 7xxx aluminum has Zn/Mg ratio about 3 and Cu over 2 wt% for better strength and stress corrosion cracking resistivity. But this composition isn't adequate for appling to the automotive bump back beam with high resistance to extrusion and bad weldability. In this study the composition of 7xxx aluminum alloy was modified to high Zn/Mg ratio and low Cu content for better extrusion and weldability. To estimate the resistivity against stress corrosion cracking of this aluminum alloy by slow strain rate test, the corrosion atmosphere and strain rate separate the stress corrosion cracking from conventional corrosion must be investigated. Using 0.6 Mol NaCl solution on slow strain rate test the stress corrosion cracking induced fracture was not observed. By adding 0.3% $H_2O_2$ and 0.6M $Na_2SO_4$ to 1M NaCl solution, the corrosion potential and current density of polarization curve moved to active potential and larger current density, and on the slow strain rate test the fracture energy in solution was lower than that in pre-exposure. These mean the stress corrosion cracking induced fracture can be estimated in this 1M NaCl + 0.3% $H_2O_2$ + 0.6M $Na_2SO_4$ solution. When the strain rate was below $2{\times}10^{-6}$, the stress corrosion cracking induced fracture start to be observed.

The grid structures with welded hollow spherical joint (WHSJ) have gained increasing popularity for use in industrial buildings with suspended cranes, and usually welded with steel tube (ST). The fatigue performance of steel tube-welded hollow spherical joint (ST-WHSJ) is however not yet well characterized, and there is little research on fatigue life prediction methods of ST-WHSJ. In this study, based on previous fatigue tests, three series of specimen fatigue data with different design parameters and stress ratios were compared, and two fatigue failure modes were revealed: failure at the weld toe of the ST and the WHSJ respectively. Then, S-N curves of nominal stress were uniformed. Furthermore, a finite element model (FEM) was validated by static test, and was introduced to assess fatigue behavior with the hot spot stress method (HSSM) and the effective notch stress method (ENSM). Both methods could provide conservative predictions, and these two methods had similar results. However, ENSM, especially when using von Mises stress, had a better fit for the series with a non- positive stress ratio. After including the welding residual stress and mean stress, analyses with the local stress method (LSM) and the critical distance method (CDM, including point method and line method) were carried out. It could be seen that the point method of CDM led to more accurate predictions than LSM, and was recommended for series with positive stress ratios.

강 구조물의 대형화에 기인하여 대형 해양구조물, 선박, 교량 및 고층 구조물에서의 극후판의 사용이 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 이런 경향은 앞으로도 계속될 것으로 생각된다. 그러나, 극후판을 사용하여 구조물을 시공할 때, 층상균열의 발생이 보고되고 있으며 이것은 극후판의 두께방향 중심부를 따라 분포하는 황, 인등의 불순 개재물 및 용접에 기인하여 발생하는 구속 잔류응력에 의하여 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 연속 주조공법에 의하여 제조되는 극후판의 제조공정의 특성상, 층상균열의 발생은 회피하기가 현실적으로 어려우며, 따라서, 본 논문에서는 강구조물의 층상균열 발생의 감소 방안으로서, 금속학적 측면보다는 용접강도 측면에서 유한요소법에 기초한 전산 프로그램을 사용하여 최적 개선부형상 및 용접순서를 선정하고자 한다.

This study investigates the appropriate range of reverse bending load for the CTOD test of thick weld by observing improvement of pre-crack shape and determination of the limit applicable load. In order to do it, the effect of the amount of the reverse bending load on the maximum deviation of the pre-crack length was investigated by the extensive tests, and the variation of plastic zone size in way of the crack tip under reverse bending load were evaluated by FEA. With the results obtained by the experiments and FEA, the proper range of reverse bending load was suggested. The effectiveness of the reverse bending method was verified by examining the pre-crack straightness after CTOD tests of thick weld specimens with various thickness and strength.

The microstructure and bond strength were investigated on the SiC/SiC and SiC/mild steel joints brazed by Ag-5at%Ti alloy. Ag-5at%Ti-2at%Fe and -5at%Fe brazing alloys were also used to see the effects of Fe addition on the bond strength of SiC/SiC brazed joints. Brazing temperature and brazing gap were selected and examined as brazing variables. The microstructure of SiC/SiC brazed joints was affected by Fe addition to the Ag-5at%Ti alloy, but the bond strength was not. Increasing brazing temperature also changed the microstructure of $Ti_5Si_3$ reaction layer and brazing alloy matrix of the SiC/SiC and SiC/mild steel joints, but not the bond strength. Brazing gap had a great effects on the bond strength. Decreasing brazing gap from 0.2 mm to 0.1 mm in SiC/SiC brazing increased the bond strength from 187 MPa to 263 MPa and, in SiC/mild steel brazing, from 189 MPa to 212 MPa. It was concluded that the most important parameter on the bond strength in SiC/SiC and SiC/mild steel brazing was the relative ratio between brazing gap and specimen size.

In the past, cold crack was commonly observed in the HAZ(heat affected zone) of high-strength steels. Applying to TMCP(thermo-mechanical controlled process) and HSLA(high strength low alloy) steels, cold crack tends to increase the occurrence in the weld metal. It is generally understood that cold crack occurs when the following factors are present simultaneously : diffusible hydrogen in the weld metal, a susceptible microstructure and residual stress. In particular, many studies investigated the microstructural effect on the cold crack in HAZ and the cold crack in weld metals starts to receive the special attendance in modern times. The purpose of the study is to review the effect of weld microstructures (grain boundary ferrite, Widm$\ddot{a}$nstatten ferrite, acicular ferrite, bainite and martensite) on cold crack in the weld metals. Among various microstructures of weld metals, acicular ferrite produced the greatest resistance to the cold crack due to the fine interlocking nature and high-angle grain boundary of the microstructure.

최근 국외의 원자로 상부헤드 CRDM 관통노즐에 일차수 응력부식균열로 인한 냉각수 누출사고가 발생하였다. 일차수응력부식균열은 부식에 민감한 재료, 인장 잔류 응력 및 부식 환경 등의 3 가지 요인의 상호작용에 의해 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있기 때문에 응력 부식 균열 발생 및 균열 진전을 억제하기 위해서는 용접에 의한 잔류응력에 대한 정확한 예측이 선행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 국내 Westinghouse 형 원자로 상부 헤드 관통노즐(CRDM)을 대상으로 노즐의 두께 및 형상 비($r_o/t$)에 따른 노즐 잔류응력 분포 특성에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 국내에 현존하는 원자로 상부헤드 관통노즐의 실제크기($r_o$=51.6, t=16.9 mm)를 기준으로 노즐의 두께 및 형상 비($r_o/t$=2, 3, 4)의 변수를 정립하였으며 정중앙 및 최외곽에 위치한 노즐을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다.

가압경수로형 원자로의 원자로압력용기 상부헤드에는 많은 제어봉구동장치(CRDM) 노즐이 분포한다. 최근 10 여 년 동안 제어봉구동장치 alloy 600 CRDM 노즐에서 균열 발생 사례가 증가하고 있으며, 이는 용접과 연관성이 매우 깊은 것으로 알려져 있다. CRDM 노즐에서 발생하는 축 및 원주방향 균열은 유럽과 미국의 원자력 발전소에서 발견되었으며, 사고의 원인은 용접 잔류응력 및 작용하중에 기인하는 일차수응력부식균열(PWSCC)임이 확인되었다. 이러한 이유로 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 통해 한국형 원자로의 CRDM 관통 노즐 용접부를 대상으로 용접 잔류응력을 예측하였으며, 특히, 관통노즐의 위치와 형상, 용접부 필렛 형상 및 인접노즐 용접에 의한 영향을 분석하였다.
