In this study, the development purpose is to replace steel Tie Rod of commercial vehicle to the carbon composite by a braiding process. CFRP tie rod was designed to meet the performance requirements of existing products by designing the cross section of the core for braiding weaving and the structural design of the joint between the core and the carbon fiber. The specimens were fabricated by braiding method and applied to structural analysis through test evaluation. The manufacturing process proceeded from braiding to infusion through post-curing process. The test evaluation of the final product was satisfactorily carried out by sequentially performing tensile test, torsion test, compression test and fatigue test. In addition, the weight of CFRP tie rod could be reduced by about 37% compared to existing products.

We have investigated on the development of 2-2 type piezocomposites that have better piezoelectric activity and lower acoustic impedance than those of conventional piezoceramics. In this study, we have investigated the piezoelectric and acoustic properties of 2-2 type piezocomposites sensor which was fabricated using dice-and-fill technique for the different volume fraction of PZT. The specific acoustic impedance of 2-2 type piezocomposites decreased linearly when PZT volume fraction was decreased. The resonance characteristics measured by an impedance analyzer(HP4194A) were similar to the analysis of finite element method (FEM). The resonance characteristics and the electromechanical coupling factor were the best when the volume fraction PZT was 0.6. It also showed the highest result from the standpoint of sensitivity, bandwidth and ring-down property and so on at the same condition. The specific characteristics show that the 2-2 type piezocomposites turned out to be superior to the ultrasonic sensor composed by single phase PZT.

The extended tangent stiffness matrices and force-deformation relations of the elastic catenary element were initially derived through the addition of the unstrained length of cables to unknown nodal 'displacements. A beam-column element was then introduced to model the deck and pylon of cable-stayed bridges. The conventional geometric nonlinear analysis, initial force method, and TCUD method were summarized, with an effective method combining two methods presented to determine the initial shapes of cable-stayed bridges with dead loads. In this combined method, TCUD method was applied to eliminate vertical and horizontal displacements at cable-supported points of decks and on top of pylons, respectively. The initial force method was also adopted to eliminate horizontal and vertical displacements of decks and pylons. Finally, the accuracy and validity of the proposed combined method were demonstrated through numerical examples.

재료의 피로문제에 대해서는 꽤 오래 전부터 많은 연구가 이루어져왔고, 피로의 현상파악에서부 터 피로이론의 구명, 나아가서는 실제문제로서의 피로설계, 피로수명예측 등에 기여한 업적은 아 주 크다 하겠다. 그러나 종래의 피로문제연구의 방향이, S-N 곡선에서 얻어지는 피로한계강도 (더 정확한 표현으론 피로파괴한계강동)에 바탕을 두고, 정력확적인 설계관례인 안전계수의 도입 을 빌려, 피로강도를 실용화할려는 선에서 이루어져 왔다고 보겠다. 재료의 피로한계강도란, 그 정의로 미루어, 다분히 정적으로는 극한강도 또는 피로강도의 개념에 견주어 질 수 있는 공칭응 력으로써 탄성학적으로 해석될 수도 없고, 다만 탄역성이론의 개념을 바탕으로 근사해석례만이 허용되고 있을 뿐이다. 재료에는 소위 평활재이건 절결재이건 간에 또 검출여부에 관계없이, 내외 부에 대소각종의 결함이나 역학적 불연속부가 잠재해있음은 이미 공지의 사실이며, 이들 결합, 불 연속부등이 외하중하에서 응분의 응력집중원이 되어 재료를 전반적인 파괴로 몰고 갈 수 있다 함 도, 또한 이러한 역학적거동이 피로파괴에 까지 확장해석될 수 있을 것이란 것도 이미 잘 알려져 있는 터이라 하겠다. 재료내외부의 제결합을 응력집중이 극대인 crack로 대체해서 외하중하에서 의 응력장거동을 해석한 선형탄성파괴역학(LEFM)은, 바로 이러한 실제재료의 강도설계에 보다 큰 정확성을 부여한 방법론적 학문이라 하겠고, 나아가서는 재료의 파괴기구를 파헤치는데 진일 보적인 역학적인 수법이라 하겠다. 취성파괴, 연성파괴에 바탕을 둔 파괴역학(LEFM)을 피로파괴 에 적용시키는 데는 상당한 문제점들을 수반할 것임은 충분히 인지되나, 제한된 경계조건하에서 의 적용 예는 종래의 어떤 방법에 의한 것 보다도 피로강도설계, 안전사용 피로수명예측 등에 획기적인 진전을 보여주고 있다. 파괴역학은 crack 재의 강도학이고, 더 구체적으로 음력학대계수 (stress intensity factor) K 또는 이와 연연되는 parameter 인 strain energy release rate(G), crack-tip plactic zone size r$_{p}$,.rho., crack-tip opening displacement .phi., strain intensity 등을 쓰는 재료강도학이기 때문에, 이 수법을 피로파괴에 적용시킴은, 종래의 공칭응력으로 피로 문제를 다루던 방법과는 판이하다 하겠다. 본고에선 파괴역학의 관점에서 피로구열의 안정성장을 논하고, 과거 10여년간의 피로 crack문제에 대한 연구방법, 실험방법 등을 소개하는 방향으로 고 를 진행시켜 나가겠다.

To overcome many defects such as the high product cost, large energy consumption, and big space capacity in conventional mechanical machining, the miniaturization of machine tool and micro factory systems has been envisioned recently. The object of this paper is to research the effect of dynamic characteristic parameters in bolted-joint beams, which is widely applied to the joining of mechanical structures in order to identify structural system characteristics and to predict dynamic behavior according to scale-down from macro to micro system as the development of micro/meso-scale machine tool and micro factories. Modal parameters such as the natural frequency, damping ratio, and mode shape from modal testing and dynamic characteristics from finite element analysis are extracted with all 12 test beam models by materials, by size, and by joining condition, and then the results obtained by both methods are compared.

In this paper, new method was proposed to classify lung tissues such as Broncho vascular, Emphysema, Ground Glass Reticular, Ground Glass, Honeycomb, Normal for early lung disease detection. 459 Statistical features was extraced from joint histogram matrix based on multi resolution analysis, volumetric LBP, and CT intensity, then dominant features was selected by using adaboost learning. Accuracy of proposed features and 3D AMFM was 90.1% and 85.3%, respectively. Proposed joint histogram based features shows better classification result than 3D AMFM in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

Most of the mechanical structures use bolting or spot welding for the whole structure. In recent years, bolting & rivets are used rather than the welding due to reassembly and repair. Analysis of bolted joints is so complicate that many conditions must be considered such as pre-load and contact, etc.. Bolted joint analysis is done by theoretical, experimental & numerical methods. However, numerical analysis in the bolted joint is used because the contact and stress in the joints are changed due to the pre-load. In this study, we analysis the slip and the deformation of the contact area in the joint depending on the pre-load and find the optimized bolting condition.

In the grinding process, generally, the exciting forces with high frequency can be generated due to the wheel wear and the grinding process. As the grinding speed increases, the precise investigation about the wheel dynamic characteristics is required. Conventionally the wheel-spindle has been considered with lumped model in dynamic modeling. With this lumped model, the significant mode resulted from the shell mode of wheel can be readily ignored. This paper suggests the new analysis model which includes the shell mode of wheel in modeling the wheel-spindle assembly. Furthermore, based on the suggested model, the effects of the bolt tightening force and the taper tightening force on the dynamic properties are investigated by the finite element modal analysis and the experimental method. As a result of investigation, the shell mode vibration of wheel affects the dynamic characteristics of the spindle assembly. Also, the vibration modes of the spindle assembly are significantly affected by the joint tightening forces.

We investigated the structure of inductive coupler and its magnetic coupling to increase the transmission coefficient for power line communication. A Rogowski coil, which is an air-cored inductive coupler, and a magnetic cored coupler were fabricated to analyze the transmission coefficient for different coupler parameters. This paper proposes the impedance matching method using lumped elements and an impedance transformer to increase the transmission coefficient. In the experiment, the transmission coefficient of the proposed system was increased in both narrowband and broadband cases, and a trade-off between the transmission coefficient and the bandwidth was shown. This method will be useful for the further study of impedance matching with the load variation.

Acoustic resonance characteristics were analyzed and their effect on the refrigerating capability were experimentally verified on a fabricated Hofler-type thermoacoustic refrigerating system. Factors governing the overall resonance are the resonator composed of a cavity and two pipes, the loudspeaker driving the resonator, and rear side impedance characteristics of speaker housing. All these are coupled with electric constants of the speaker to exhibit electric resonance. Also the 'wall-effect' within the resonator causes attenuation to reduce the sharpness of the resonance. Analysis and experiments showed housing and the wall-effect of the resonator reduce the sharpness of resonance. Maintaining the accuracy of the resonance is, therefore, very important for efficient refrigeration.
