본 논문에서는 API X80 강의 대변형 비선형 거동을 모사하기 위해 비선형 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 고강도 강재의 거동을 모사하기 위해 GTN(Gurson-Tvergaad-Needleman) 모델을 사용하였으며, 비선형 해석을 위해 범용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS와 User Subroutine의 사용자 재료모델(UMAT)을 연계하여 사용하였다. 해석결과와 인장실험의 결과와의 비교를 통해 GTN 모델에서 사용되는 재료모델 상수를 도출하였고, 도출된 값들은 개발된 사용자 재료모델과 함께 API X80 강의 각종 실험을 모사하고 대변형 상황의 강재 파이프의 거동을 분석하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

We simulated large deformation and inelastic behavior of API-X80 steel linepipes using nonlinear finite element method. Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman(GTN) model is employed for the development of the constitutive model of the steel. The GTN model is implemented in the form of the user-supplied material subroutine(UMAT) for the commercial software of ABAQUS. To calibrate the model parameters, we simulated the behavior of the uniaxial tension test using ABAQUS equipped with the developed GTN model. Using the set of the model parameters, we were able to capture the characteristics of the plastic buckling of API-X80 steel linepipes.

The behavior of the load bearing capacity of a pipeline with unequal wall thickness was evaluated using finite element analyses. Pipelines with a wall thickness ratio of 1.22-1.89 were adopted to investigate plastic collapse under tensile, internal pressure, or bending stress. A parametric study showed that the tensile strength and moment of a pipeline with a wall thickness ratio less than 1.5 were not influenced by the wall thickness ratio and taper angle; however, those of a pipeline with a wall thickness ratio more than 1.5 decreased considerably at a low taper angle. The failure pressure of a pipeline with unequal wall thickness was not influenced by the wall thickness ratio and taper angle.

API X-80강재의 수소유기균열(HIC)현상을 비파괴적으로 평가하는 장치를 구축하고 금상학적 평가를 수행하였다. 시편은 열간 압연된 API X-80강재이며 평균입도는 약 $1.76-1.99{\mu}m$ 이었다. 압연재의 금상학적 집합조직은 (110)극점은 ND방향에 평행, (100)극점은 TD방향으로 약 $30^{\circ}$, TD방향으로부터 RD방향으로 약 $45^{\circ}$ 기울어져 있으며, (211)면은 RD방향에 수직인 면으로부터 TD방향으로 약 $35^{\circ}$ 기울어져서 있었다. Pin-on-disk형 마모시험기를 이용한 상온 평균 마찰계수는 0.745였으며 마모손실은 0.0196 mm/min 이었다. 3축 제어 초음파 비파괴 검사 장비는 표면으로부터 약 3mm 깊이의 1 mm 크기의 모의 균열을 탐촉자가 10 mm 접근하면 검출이 가능하였다.

Acoustic microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were applied to non-destructively evaluate the hydrogen-induced cracking of API X-80 steels and to find the initiation time of the crack. The API X-80 steel had the average grain size of about $4-10{\mu}m$. The hardness was reduced from 240 to 202 [Hv] after exposing in HIC environment for 2-days. Friction coefficient and wear loss were 0.745 and 0.392 mm, respectively. Empirical equation of corrosion potential and corrosion rate of the steel with HIC time in $5%NaCl-0.5%CH_3COOH$ at $25^{\circ}C$ were $Eh\;(up)=0.06^*t[day]+0.2951$, $Eh(down)=0.376^*t[day]+0.5938$, respectively. HIC grew with micro-size after 1-day exposure. The HIC tended to propagate on the surface with Al, Si, Ti, and Mn.

The effect of strain aging on tensile behavior and properties of API X60, X70, and X80 pipeline steels was investigated in this study. The API X60, X70, and X80 pipeline steels were fabricated by varying alloying elements and thermomechanical processing conditions. Although all the steels exhibited complex microstructure consisting of polygonal ferrite (PF), acicular ferrite, granular bainite (GB), bainitic ferrite (BF), and secondary phases, they had different fractions of microstructures depending on the alloying elements and thermomechanical processing conditions. The tensile test results revealed that yielding behavior steadily changed from continuous-type to discontinuous-type as aging temperature increases after 1% pre-strain. After pre-strain and thermal aging treatment in all the steels, the yield and tensile strengths, and yield ratio were increased, while the uniform elongation and work hardening exponent were decreased. In the case of the X80 steel, particularly, the decrease in uniform elongation was relatively small due to many mobile dislocations in PF, and the increase in yield ratio was the lowest because a large amount of harder microstructures such as GB, BF, and coarse secondary phases effectively enhanced work hardening.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the thickness eccentricity on the collapse pressure of a subsea pipeline subjected to external pressure. The collapse behavior of the subsea pipeline containing initial imperfection was evaluated using elastic-plastic finite element (FE) analyses. API 5L X65 and API 5L X80 Pipelines with the thickness eccentricity values between 4~16% were adopted to investigate the plastic collapse under hydrostatic pressure. A parametric study was shown that the plastic collapse pressure decreased when either the thickness eccentricity or the ratio of diameter to thickness increased.

This study aimed at investigating quasi-static and dynamic torsional deformation behavior of three API X70 and X80 linepipe steels. Quasi-static and dynamic torsional tests were conducted on these steels. having different grain sizes and volume fractions of acicular ferrite and polygonal ferrite, using a torsional Kolsky bar. The test data were then compared via microstructures and adiabatic shear band formation,. The dynamic torsional test results indicated that the steels rolled in the single phase region had higher maximum shear stress than the steel rolled in the two phase region, because the microstructures of the steel rolled in the single phase region were composed mainly of acicular ferrites. In the X80 steel rolled in the single phase region, the increased dynamic torsional properties could be explained by a decrease in the overall effective grain size due to the presence of acicular ferrite having smaller effective grain size. The possibility of adiabatic shear band formation was analyzed from the energy required for void initiation and variation in effective grain size.
