In this paper, resonance durability analysis is performed for the fatigue life assessment considering vibration effect of a vehicle system. In the resonance durability analysis, the frequency response and the dynamic load on frequency domain are used. Multi-body dynamic analysis, finite element analysis, and fatigue life prediction method are applied for the virtual durability assessment. To obtain the frequency response and the dynamic load history, the computer simulations running over typical pothole and Belgian road are carried out by utilizing vehicle dynamic model. The durability estimations on the rear suspension system of the passenger car are performed by using the resonance durability analysis technique and compared with the quasi-static durability analysis. The study shows that the fatigue life considering resonant frequency of vehicle system can be effectively estimated in early design stage.

During the development of vehicles, durability tests are time consuming and costly. Recently, automobile companies have attempted to develop their own durability evaluation procedures by modifying and complementing . In this paper, we propose an integrated computer-aided engineering (CAE) method to evaluate the durability of a torsion beam axle (TBA). We compare this method with the standardized durability evaluation method used by an actual automobile company in order to determine the feasibility of this method. We compare the results with the test result data to enable us to estimate the reliability of the analysis results. In this study, we analyze the processes and results of the quasi-static fatigue analysis, and found improved methods and problems. Furthermore, we perform a thorough test using the requirements of the actual company. Based on the results, the structural analysis process in the quasi-static fatigue analysis method was superseded by the multi-body dynamics analysis process. Generally, this method is referred to as the resonance-fatigue analysis method.

The purpose of this raper is to assess the benefits of frequency domain fatigue analysis and compare it with more conventional time domain techniques. The multi-body dynamic analysis, FE analysis and fatigue life prediction technique are applied for the frequency domain fatigue analysis. To obtain the dynamic load history used in the frequency domain fatigue analysis, the computer simulations running over typical road Profiles are carried out by utilizing vehicle dynamic model. The fatigue life estimation for the rear suspension system of small-sized passenger car is performed by using resonance durability analysis technique, and the estimation results are compared with the conventional quasi-static durability analysis results. For the pothole simulation, the percent changes, of the fatigue life between the two durability analysis techniques don't exceed 10%. But for the Belgian road simulation because of the resonance effect, the fatigue life using the resonance durability analysis technique are much smaller estimated than the quasi-static durability analysis results.

The gaseous fuel injection(GFI) type of LPG fuel-supply system is more advantageous than liquefied fuel injection(LFI) from the viewpoint of durability and cost reduction. However, compared with LFI types of LPG fuel-supply systems, in the GFI systems it is difficult to achieve precision fuel metering because of the compressible characteristic of the gaseous fuel. In this study, a Helmholtz resonator is proposed as an appropriate system for precision fuel metering in GFI systems, and the effects of the Helmholtz resonator on the fuel metering are simulated by the commercial flow-network-analysis package Flowmaster.

The vehicle system is exposed to random source in service. Therefore, it is important to consider dynamic effect of the system. But, fatigue analysis is traditionally performed by using time signal of loading. To obtain dynamic effect of resonance, we carried out resonance durability analysis with frequency response and the dynamic load on frequency domain. The study shows that the damage considering resonant frequency of fuel tank system can be effectively estimated.

This study investigates life, damage and durability through the analyses of fatigue load and vibration on disk brake models of A, B and C. Maximum equivalent stress is happened at the inside of disk brake on these models. As there are A, B and C models by order of life, model A has the most stable strength on fatigue analysis, The deformations at 3 kinds of models become nearly same on natural frequency analysis. The maximum total deformation and equivalent stress is shown at 1617Hz by harmonic vibration analysis on these models. As there are A, B and C models by order of deformation and stress, model A becomes lowest and safest. This study result can be effectively utilized with the design of brake disk in order to improve durability and prevention against its fatigue damage and vibration.

This study analyzes structural analysis with fatigue and natural frequency on ATV knuckle. The maximum equivalent stresses are happened at the end of knuckle in case of model 1, 2 and 3. As these stresses are below the allowable stress, these models can be stable structurally. The fatigue damage possibility at model 1 becomes more than model 2 and 3. Model 2 or 3 has more durability than model 1 at fatigue. As the resonances are happened at the frequency more than 2000 Hz in case of model 1, 2 and 3, there is no resonance possibilities at real driving. Prevention against damage and durability prediction on automotive chassis parts can be effectively improved by applying this study result on knuckle and improving structural strength.

Diesel engines are widely used as power supplies for isolated islands as well as emergency power supplies for large-capacity power plants because of their rapid response to operation, high reliability, and good durability. However, diesel engines are also vulnerable to damage or degradation of reliability when high levels of vibration are generated in them. This paper shows experiments and analysis for the determination of the causes of high-vibration phenomena in large-scale diesel engines, which have experienced various power decreases over several years because of the high levels of vibration. The main cause of the vibration is identified as the resonance created by the torsional vibration of its crank axis, and the appropriate countermeasures that were designed worked well when applied in field tests.

현재 대부분 사용되는 지하매설물용 뒤채움재는 다짐공법을 많이 사용하고 있으며, 실제로 이러한 방법은 부적절한 다짐으로 인해 침하 및 내구성 저하로 인해 파손을 초래하는 경우가 많다. 이러한 문제를 해결 할 수 있는 하나의 대안으로 유동성 뒤채움재를 이용할 수 있다. 유동성 뒤채움재는 초기 유동성, 시간에 따른 자기 강도 발현 무다짐공법 적용 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장발생토사, 정수장슬러지 및 폐타이어분말 등 재활용 재료를 이용한 유동성 뒤채움재의 기본물성을 평가하였다. 각각의 재활용재료에 대한 입도 및 비중을 평가하였고, 최적배합설계를 결정하였으며, 모형 시험과 유한요소 해석을 위한 기본 물성값을 위해 일축압축시험, 삼축압축시험, 공진주시험 등을 수행하였다. 최적배합설계를 산정하는 과정에서 수행한 실험중 대표적인 시험으로 자가수평능력 및 자기다짐등에 필요한 유동성을 판단하는 Flow시험(ASTM D 6133) 결과 기준으로 정한 20cm이상의 값을 얻을 수 있었으며 일축압축강도의 경우 시공 후 유지 보수가 용이한 강도인 $3.0kg/cm^2{\sim}5.6kg/cm^2$이하로 설계하였으며 28일재령 일축압축강도 결과 $3.15{\sim}3.74kg/cm^2$라는 유지보수에 적당한 결과값을 나타내었다. 이 배합이 현장에서 사용이 가능하다는 것으로 판단하고 현장모형시험과 유한요소해석를 통하여 현장에서 사용하였을 때 관의 변형과 관에 작용하는 하중변화를 확인하고 현장모형시험과 유한요소해석 간의 상관관계를 규명하였다. 현장 모형 시험은 현장과 비슷하게 제작된 모형을 이용하였으며 최대한 현장과 비슷한 조건에서 뒤채움재를 타설과정 중과 타설이 완료된 상태에서 7일 양생 후 하중재하와 같이 두가지 경우에서 수직 수평토압, 관의 수직 수평변위, 관의 종단변형을 측정하였다. 유한요소해석 프로그램은 Midas GTS를 이용하여 실시하였으며 관의 변형률, 유효응력을 측정하여 규명하였다.
