Most of mechanically jointed aircraft structures are always encountered the fretting damages on the contact surfaces between two jointed structural members or at the edges of fastener holes. The partial slip and contact stresses associated with fretting contact can lead to severe reduction in service lifetime of aircraft structures. Thus a critical need exists for predicting fretting crack initiation in mechanically jointed aircraft structures, which requires characterizing both the near-surface mechanics and intimate relationship with fretting parameters. In this point of view, a series of fretting fatigue specimen tests for 2024-T351 Al-alloy, have been conducted to validate a mechanics-based model for predicting fretting fatigue life. And included in this investigaion were elasto-plastic contact stress analyses using commercial FEA code to quantify the stress and strain fields in subsurface to evaluate the fretting fatigue crack initiation.

Uninterrupted power supply has become indispensable during the maintenance task of active electric power lines as a result of today's highly information-oriented society and increasing demand of electric utilities. The maintenance task has the risk of electric shock and the danger of falling from high place. Therefore it is necessary to realize an autonomous robot system. In order to realize these tasks autonomously, the three dimensional position of target object such as electric line and the stand of insulator must be recognized accurately and rapidly. The approaching of an insulator and the wrenching of a nut task is selected as the typical task of the maintenance of active electric power distribution lines in this paper. Image recognition by multilayer neural network and optimal target position calculation method are newly proposed in order to recognize the center 3 dimensional position of the bolt hole in the stand of insulator. By the proposed image recognition method, it is proved that the center 3 dimensional position of the bolt hole can be recognized rapidly and accurately without regard to the pose of the stand of insulator. Finally the approaching and wrenching task is automatically realized using 6-link electro-hydraulic manipulators.

대표적인 대형 베어링인 일체형 볼 베어링과 와기어 레이스형 볼 또는 로울러 베어링의 마찰 특성을 비성형 유한요소 프로그램인 MARC를 사용하여 상호간의 마찰형상에 대한 접촉응력과 마찰력 특성을 비교 해석하였다. 특히 와이어 레이스식 슬루잉 링 베어링은 우수한 마찰특성 때문에 건설기계, 하역기계, 광산기계나 탱크와 같은 국방무기 등에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 접촉면의 변형에 따른 일체형의 볼 베어링은 마찰력과 기울기면에서 와이어 레이스식 베어링에 비하여 크고, 같은 와이어 레이스식 베어링에서는 마찰력의 경우 볼 타입이 로울러 탕입에 비하여 약간 크게 나타났다. 이들의 계산결과를 종합하면 와이어 레이스식 베어링이 일체형 베어링에 비하여 마찰특성이 우수하고, 특히 와이어 레이스 베어링중에서 로울러 타입은 마찰 토오크면에서 균일하기 때문에 베어링을 사용한 제어기능 설계에서 특히 우수한 결과를 제공할 수 있다. 유한요소 해석결과는 기존의 실험결과와 잘 일치하고 있어서 슬루잉 링 베어링의 최적설계에 유한요소 해석의 유용함을 확인하였다. 또한 상부 구조물과 하부 구조물을 연결하기 위한 체결볼트의 구멍은 하중조건에 따라서 구조적 불안정성을 야기할 수 있음도 확인하였다.

In study, Structural stability was considered when applying the high strength strut method with improved general strut method. considered whether there is sufficient stiffness to so as not buckling to the maximum hypothetical earth pressure. also structure stability of the strut component was reviewed. The high strength strut method is a technique used in place of the general strut method. high strength prefabricated Strut method is a technique that has bolt holes drilled in the upper flange at regular intervals. As a result of the buckling analysis, it was considered that the safety factor increased by about 5 %. also Since the stress generated is below the allowable stress, it is judged that structural stability of the strut is ensured. In particular, the safety factor of axial compressive stress increases about 16 % with use of high strength steel when applying the high strength prefabricated strut method. the high strength strut method is construction method may shorten the construction period and there is no expense to purchase additional materials.

In the present study the newly developed CAD/CAM system is applied to the process of the molding design, machining for mini-sized and precise processive die, and the production of press-stamped parts. When the design of a die was completed by means of CAD, wire cut NC data were generated with the aid of a design drawing in the CAD system and then inputed into the wire cut machine, and with the aid of a hole chart which had been made for this purpose, all the data were classified into the categories of CNC milling, jig boring, jig grinding, and machine center, and then developing a program of generating NC data, errors in process were reduced and programming time was shortened. The program was developed by using Autolisp language which was built-in the CAD, and realizing the intergation of designing a die, generating and processing NC data directly by a designer, designing time and machinery processing time were shorted. And the traditionally required working time for design. NC program required 6 days of work becomes 4 days of work by using the developed CAD/CAM system so that the efficiency shows 150% of the reduction working time. The prpgram of the design of the automation a progressive die mold was developed in the PC-Class Autocad system, therefore development expense could be reduced, and the integration of the CAD/CAM of the progressive die mold with the standard DB being built could be realized.

This study mainly treats a new type of the bracing friction damper system, which is able to minimize structural damage under earthquake loads. The slotted bolt holes are placed on the shear faying surfaces with an intention to dissipate considerable amount of friction energy. The superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) wire strands are installed crossly between two plates for the purpose of enhancing recentering force that are able to reduce permanent deformation occurring at the friction damper system. The smart recentering friction damper system proposed in this study can be expected to reduce repair cost as compared to the conventional damper system because the proposed system mitigates the inter-story drift of the entire frame structure. The response mechanism of the proposed damper system is firstly investigated in this study, and then numerical analyses are performed on the component spring models calibrated to the experimental results. Based on the numerical analysis results, the seismic performance of the recentering friction damper system with respect to recentering capability and energy dissipation are investigated before suggesting optimal design methodology. Finally, nonlinear dynamic analyses are conducted by using the frame models designed with the proposed damper systems so as to verify superior performance to the existing damper systems.
