The objective of the present paper is to evaluate the effect of the evolution of contact surface profile caused by fretting wear on fatigue life of press-fitted shaft by means of an analytical method based on experimental data. A finite element analysis was performed to analyze the stress states of press-fitted shaft, considering the worn contact profiles of shaft. The fatigue lives of the press-fitted shaft reflecting the evolution of contact stress induced by fretting wear were evaluated by stress-life approach using fatigue notch factor. It is found that the stress concentration of contact edge in press-fitted shaft decreases rapidly at the initial stage of total fatigue life, and its location shifts from the contact edge to the inside with increasing number of fatigue cycles. Thus the change of crack nucleation position in press-fitted shaft is mainly caused by the stress change of contact edge due to the evolution of contact surface profile by fretting wear. Furthermore, the estimated fatigue lives by stress-life approach at the end of running-in period of the fretting wear process corresponded well to the experimental results. It is thus suggested that the effect of fretting wear on fatigue life in press fits is strongly related to the evolution of surface profile at the initial stage of total fatigue life.

In this paper, the characteristics of contact surface damage due to fretting in a press-fitted shaft below the fretting fatigue limit are proposed by experimental methods. A series of fatigue tests and interrupted fatigue tests of small scale press-fitted specimen were carried out by using rotating bending fatigue test machine. Macroscopic and microscopic characteristics were examined using scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical microscope or profilometer. It is found that fretting fatigue cracks were initiated even under the fretting fatigue limit on the press-fitted shafts by fretting damage. The fatigue cracks of press-fitted shafts were initiated from the edge of contact surface and propagated inward in a semi-elliptical shape. Furthermore, the fretting wear rates at the contact edge are increased rapidly at the initial stage of total fatigue life. After steep increasing, the increase of wear rate is nearly constant under the load condition below the fretting fatigue limit. It is thus suggested that the fretting wear must be considered on the fatigue life evaluation because the fatigue crack nucleation and propagation process is strongly related to the evolution of surface profile by fretting wear in the press-fitted structures.

반도체 집적도의 비약적인 발전으로 각 박막 층간의 두께는 더욱 줄어들었고 이는 각 박막 층간의 확산에 대한 문제를 간과할 수 없게 하였다. 따라서 각 층간의 확산을 방지하기위한 확산방지막의 연구에 대한 관심도는 증가하게 되었다. 또한 본 연구에서 분석을 위하여 사용된 Nanoindenter는 박막 표면에 다이아몬드 팁을 이용하여 압입을 실시하여 이때 시표의 반응에 의한 팁의 위치(Z-축)를 in-situ로 측정하여 인가력과 팁의 위치에 대한 연속 압입곡선을 측정하게 된다. 이를 통하여 박막의 hardness와 elastin modulus를 측정하게 되고, 연속 압입곡선 분석을 통하여 박막의 표면응력 변화를 측정한다. 이 논문에서는 반도체의 기판으로 사용되는 Si 기판과 금속배선 물질인 Cu와의 확산을 효과적으로 방지하기 위한 W-C-N 확산방지막을 제시하였고, 시료 증착을 위하여 rf magnetron sputter를 사용하여 동일한 증착 조건에서 질소(N)의 비율을 다르게 하여 박막내 질소 비율에 따른 확산방지막을 제작하였다. 이후 시료의 열적 안정성 측정을 위하여 상온에서 $900^{\circ}C$ 까지 질소 분위기에서 30분간 열처리 과정을 실시하여 열적 손상을 인가하였고, 고온에서 확산방지막의 열적인 안정성을 Nanoindentation 분석을 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정 결과 박막내 질소 불포함된 박막의 경우 표면 강도는 9.01 GPa에서 194.01 GPa의 급격한 변화를 보였고, 질소가 포함된 박막은 9.41 GPa에서 43.01 GPa으로 상대적으로 적은 차이를 보였다. X-ray 분석 결과에서도 박막내 질소가 포함된 박막이 고온에서도 더 안정된 특성을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

반도체 집적도의 비약적인 발전으로 각 박막 층간의 두께는 더욱 줄어들었고 이는 각 박막 층간의 확산에 대한 문제를 간과할 수 없게 하였다. 따라서 각 층간의 확산을 방지하기 위하여 두께가 수십 nm size의 확산방지막의 연구에 대한 관심도는 증가하게 되었다. 본 연구에서 분석을 위하여 사용된 Nano-indentation은 박막 표면에 다이아몬드 팁을 이용하여 압입을 실시하여 이때 시표의 반응에 의한 팁의 위치(Z-축)를 in-situ로 측정하여 인가력과 팁의 위치에 대한 연속 압입곡선을 측정하게 된다. 이를 통하여 박막의 hardness와 elastic modulus를 측정하게 되고, 연속 압입곡선 분석을 통하여 박막의 표면응력 변화를 측정한다. 이 논문에서는 반도체의 기판으로 사용되는 Si기판과 금속배선 물질인 Cu와의 확산을 효과적으로 방지하기 위한 W-C-N 확산 방지막을 제시하였고, 시료 증착을 위하여 RF-magnetron sputter를 사용하여 동일한 증착조건에서 질소(N)의 비율을 다르게 하여 박막 내 질소비율에 따른 확산방지막을 제작하였다. 이후 시료의 열적 안정성 측정을 위하여 상온, $600^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$로 각각 질소 분위기에서 30분간 열처리 과정을 실시하여 열적 손상을 인가하였다. 고온에서 확산방지막의 물리적 특성을 알아보기 위해 Nano-indentation을 이용하여 분석하였고, WET-SPM을 이용하여 표면 이미지와 거칠기를 확인하였다. 그 결과 질화물질이 내화물질에 비해 고온에서 물성변화가 적게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었고, 균일도와 결정성 또한 질화물질에서 더 안정적이었다.

Fitting process carried out in automobile transmission assembly line is classified into three classes; heat fitting, press fitting, and their combined fitting. Heat fitting is a method that heats gear to a suitable range under the tempering temperature and squeezes it toward the outer diameter of shaft. Its stress depends on the yield strength of gear. Press fitting is a method that generally squeezes gear toward that of shaft at room temperature by press. Another method heats warmly gear and safely squeezes it toward that of shaft. Warm shrink fitting process for automobile transmission part is now gradually increased, but the parts (shaft/gear) assembled by this process produced dimensional changes of gear profile in both radial and circumferential directions. So that it may cause noise and vibration between gears. In order to solve these problems, we need an analysis of warm shrink fitting process, in which design parameters are involved; contact pressure according to fitting interference between outer diameter of shaft and inner diameter of gear, fitting temperature, and profile tolerance of gear. In this study, an closed form equation to predict contact pressure and fitting load was proposed in order to develop optimization technique of warm shrink fitting process and verified its reliability through the experimental results measured in the field and FEM, that is, thermal-structural coupled field analysis. Actual loads measured in the field have a good agreement with the results obtained by theoretical and finite element analysis and also the expanded amounts of the gear profile in both radial and circumferential directions are within the limit tolerances used in the field.

Creation of a stress relief groove is a fairly simple yet high-performance method. During the application of this method, it is important to consider the location and size of the groove in order to achieve better performance. Consequently, this research proposes an approach for optimizing the application of the stress relief groove method to a press-fitted assembly. In a boss design, the position and diameter of the groove are configured as design variables and the design of experiments is applied. Based on this information, a 3D model is built and analyzed using the finite element analysis software ABAQUS. Meta-models are created using back-propagation neural networks. Then, deterministic optimization results obtained from a genetic algorithm are compared with the results of the finite element analysis. The temperature sensitivity of the optimized model is analyzed, and finally, reliability-based design optimization is conducted for enhancing the design quality.

Most of materials receive force in using, therefore, the characteristics of materials must be considered in system design not to occur deformation or destruction. Mechanical properties about materials can be expressed as responsible level of material itself under the exterior operation. Main mechanical properties is strength, hardness, ductility and stiffness etc. Currently, among major measure facilities to measure such mechanical properties, advanced indentation technique has focused in industrial areas as reason of nondestructive and easy applications for mechanical tensile properties and evaluation of residual stress of materials. This study is to find the optimum experimental condition about residual stress advanced indentation technique for accurate analysis of the welded joint of steel materials through indentation load-depth curve obtained from cruciform specimen experiment. Optimum selection was applied to the welded joint of real steel materials to give non-equi-biaxial stress state and compared with general residual stress analyzing method for verification.
