In this study, the failure prediction of composite laminates under flexural loading is investigated. A FEA(finite element analysis) using 2D strain-based interactive failure theory. A pregressive failure analysis was applied to FEA for stiffness degradation with failure mode each layer. A three-point bending test based on the ASTM D790 are performed for cross-ply $[0/90]_8$ and quasi-isotropic $[0/{\pm}45/90]_{2s}$ laminated composites. The accuracy of the applied failure theory is verified with the experimental results and other failure criteria such as maximum strain, maximum stress and Tsai-Wu theories.

자동차용 Alloy Wheel은 차량의 수직하중이나 가로 방향 하중, 구동, 제동토크 등 주행 시에 발생하는 여러 형태의 응력을 받으면서 사용되므로 이러한 응력을 견딜 수 있는 강성은 물론 차량 부품으로서의 요구 수명도 만족하여야 한다. 알루미늄 휠은 개발 후 규격에 준하는 내구성 평가를 위하여 반경 방향 부하 내구시험과 굽힘모멘트 내구시험과 주행 중 요철이나 벽돌 등에 의한 노면으로부터 갑작스런 하중에 대한 내충격성 평가를 위한 충격시험이 실행되고 있다. 이러한 시험은 많은 시간이 소요되고 있으며, 또한 시험 중 불합격 판정이 날 경우 또다시 처음의 공정을 모두 거쳐 다시 시험을 하게 된다. 3 Piece와 같은 알루미늄 휠은 여러 공정에 의한 생산되어지기 때문에 많은 시간적, 물질적 손실이 일어나고 있다. 따라서 자동차용 알루미늄 휠의 요구조건을 충분히 만족시키며 소비자의 요구에 맞는 품질과 시간을 충족시켜 기업경쟁력 확보는 물론 원가절감에 의한 기업 경쟁력 향상을 위하여 설계 단계서부터 시험조건을 고려한 내구성 해석에 의한 알루미늄 휠의 시험횟수를 단축하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 3 Piece 알루미늄 휠의 축(shaft)하중에 의한 내구성 평가에 대하여 CAE시스템을 이용하여 보다 빠르고 정확한 결과를 산출함으로서 설계시간의 단축은 물론 다양한 형상의 제품들을 설계단계에서부터 생산에 이르기까지의 해석활용법을 수립하고자 하였다.

In this study, a low-velocity impact test was performed to obtain the dynamic properties of solid propellants. The dynamic behavior of the solid propellant was examined by measuring the force and displacement of the impactor during the low-velocity impact test. The bending displacement was calculated by compensating for the local displacement caused by the low-velocity impact test in the form of three point bending and the shear displacement caused by using a short and thick solid propellant specimen. Stress and strain were calculated using compensated displacements and measured force, and dynamic properties of solid propellants were obtained from the stress-strain curve and compared with static bending test. The dynamic properties of solid propellant under the low-velocity impact loading at various operating temperature conditions such as room temperature(20 ℃), high temperature(63 ℃), and low temperature(-32 ℃) were compared and investigated.

Shot-peening effects on the fatigue behavior of bearing steel were investigated under the high cyclic loading. Hourglass shape specimens were made of bearing steel(JIS-SUJ2) for rotary bending fatigue tests. Two kinds of treatments were performed : a heat treatment and a shot-peened surface treatment after the heat treatment. The fracture surfaces of specimens were classified into two types of fracture mode : the surface fracture mode induced by a surface defect and the internal fracture mode induced by a nonmetallic inclusion. Inclusion depth and shape affected considerably the fatigue life. Shot-peening treatment improved much the fatigue life of the bearing steel under low and high levels of cyclic loads. Probabilistic-stress-life (P-S-N) curves were suggested for the reliable fatigue life estimation of the improved bearing steel.

The bending strength characteristics and local deformation behaviors of honeycomb sandwich composites were investigated using three-point bending experiment and finite element simulation with a real model of honeycomb core. Two kinds of cell sizes of honeycomb core, two kinds of skin layer thicknesses, perfect bonding specimen as well as initial delamination specimen were used for analysis of stress and deformation behaviors of honeycomb sandwich beams. Various failure modes such as skin layer yielding, interfacial delamination, core shear deformation and local buckling were considered. Its simulation results were very comparable to the experimental ones. Consequently, cell size of honeycomb core and skin layer thickness had dominant effects on the bending strength and deformation behaviors of honeycomb sandwich composites. Specimens of large core cell size and thin skin layer showed that bending strength decreased by $30\~68\%$.

In this study, the bending analysis of composite laminates using the classical laminated theory is investigated. A piece-wise linear incremental approach is employed to describe the nonlinear mechanical behavior of the composite laminates, and a 2D strain-based interactive failure theory is employed to predict the ultimate flexural loads. The 3-point bending tests are performed for cross-ply and quasi-isotropic laminates. The analysis results with the failure theory are verified by comparing the analysis findings to the experimental outcome.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the slenderness ratio effect on buckling characteristics of thin cylindrical structures subjecting the shear loads in detail. To do this, the buckling strength evaluations were carried out with using the evaluation formulae proposed by J. Okada. From the results of the buckling strength evaluations, the three types of staled cylindrical test specimen, which have L/R=3.1, 1.6, and 1.0, are determined for the numerical analyses and tests. From results, target slenderness ratio over L/R=3 results in dominant bending buckling mode, smaller slenderness ratio under L/R=1 results in dominant shear buckling mode, and near L/R=1.6 region shows the mixed buckling mode which has the bending and shear buckling mode simultaneously. Most results of buckling characteristics obtained by the numerical analyses and the evaluation formulae we in good agreement with those of tests.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the important Parameters of the Pedicle screw by estimating the mechanical characteristics of screws under static and dynamic loads. Methodology for estimating Parameters under static load was proposed. It was also shown that the fatigue life of the one-level system could be increased by changing the shape of screws. Load parameters of the single pedicle screw were friction force. bending moment. and holding force. The test results of the one-level system could be inferred from teat results of the sin91e screw under bending force Fatigue life of the one-level system with flexible rod was longer than that of the upper Part test without rod . Considering the drop of flexibility of the rod due to muscles and ligament, fatigue life of the one-level system could be estimated b? that of the single screw.

This paper presents an experimental approach to design a bending-type actuator by using a shape memory alloy wire (SMA), composite strip, and spring. The SMA wire is attached to two edges of the bent strip to apply pre-stress to the SMA wire. The spring is used to provide recovery force right after actuation of the SMA wire. To investigate thermo-mechanical characteristics of the SMA wire, a series of DSC tests have been conducted and tensile tests under various levels of pre-stress and input power have been performed. Based on the measured properties of the SMA wire, bending-type actuators are designed and tested for different combination of strip, number of springs, and input power. It has been found that a bending-type actuator with a proper combination shows fast actuation performance and low power consumption.

Gears are the most commonly used parts in automotive and industrial applications. One of most common modes of gear failures is tooth breakage, which is usually produced by the bending fatigue failure. It is important to manufacture the gears which can withstand the applied stresses in view of safety and economic requirement. This paper deals with bending fatigue strength for cold forged bevel gear. Especially, to compare fatigue characteristics for manufacturing processes difference, bending fatigue tests of bevel gears made by three different processes respectively. Results indicate that the fatigue strength of bevel gear is improved by cold forging process. Intergranular fracture is found on fatigue fracture surface, and dimples are observed on final fracture surface. The fatigue failure cannot be considered as a deterministic quantity, but must be characterized statistically. This study proposes a method to estimate bending fatigue lift of the bevel gear using the probability-load-life and Weibull analysis.
