The Vickers hardness test is a common method used to characterize the hardness of ceramic materials. However, the hardness is not a deterministic value, but is a random variable. The objective of this paper is to investigate the statistical properties of the bending strength and a set of Vickers hardness values in single $ZrO_2$ and composite $ZrO_2/SiC$ with a SiC additive. In this work, we compare the characteristic value and variation with the results based on Weibull statistical analysis. The probability distributions of the bending strength and Vickers hardness agreed relatively well with the Weibull distribution. We evaluate the scale parameter and shape parameter in asreceived $ZrO_2$ and $ZrO_2/SiC$ composite ceramics, as well as in their heat treated ceramics.

본 논문은 XLPE 절연재료의 보이드에 따른 방전빈도를 와이블 함수로 조사하였으며, 또한 방전빈도와 결함에 대한 상관관계를 와이블 해석을 이용한 진단시스템을 제안하고 있다. 인가전압은 교류 60[Hz]를 방전개시전압을 기점으로 1[1kV]씩 승압하였으며, 전하량이 512[pC]이상이 발생하면 검출한도를 초과하므로 실험을 멈추었다. 그 결과 보이드 시료에서 큰 형태파라메터값을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

A Weibull statistical analysis of the mechanical properties of SiC ceramics was carried out by immersion in acidic and alkaline solutions. The heat treatment was carried out at 1373 K. The corrosion of SiC was carried out in acidic and alkaline solutions under KSL1607. The bending strength of corroded crack-healed specimens decreased 47% and 70% compared to those of uncorroded specimens in acidic and alkaline solutions, respectively. The corrosion of SiC ceramics is faster in alkaline solution than in acid solution. The scale and shape parameters were evaluated for the as-received and corroded materials, respectively. The shape parameter of the as-received material corroded in acidic and alkaline solutions was significantly more apparent in the acidic solution. Further, the heat-treated material was large in acidic solution but small in alkaline solution. The shape parameters of the as-received and heat-treated materials were smaller in both acidic and alkaline solutions.

짧은 시간의 주행 실험과 랜덤 응답 해석을 통한 차체의 피로수명을 해석하는 방법을 제시하 였다. 주파수 영역에서 다축 응력을 폰 미제스 응력으로 변환시키고 응력 진폭의 확률 분포를 와이블 분포를 고려하여 처리함으로써 더욱 신뢰도가 큰 해석이 되도록 하였다. 여기에 제시된 해석 과정은 일반적으로 적용 가능한 것이므로, 양산 전 단계의 차체 피로 설계에 좋은 참고가 될 것이다.

This paper is concerned with the stochastic nature of elevated temperature tensile strength and creep rupture time in 18Cr-8Ni stainless steels. The Weibull statistical analysis using the NRIM data sheet has been performed to investigate the effects of variability of the elevated temperature tensile strength and creep rupture time on the testing temperature. From those investigations, the distributions of temperature tensile strength and creep rupture time were well followed in 2-parameter Weibull. The shape parameter and scale parameter for the Weibull distribution of tensile strength were decreased with increasing the testing temperature. For the creep rupture time, generally, the shape parameter were decreased with increasing the testing temperature.

In this study, the effects of shot peening (SP) on the Vickers hardness of $ZrO_2$ were studied. The size of the shot balls were ${\phi}180{\mu}m$ and ${\phi}300{\mu}m$. The Vickers hardness was measured using an indentation load of 98 N and 294 N. The Vickers hardness was evaluated using Weibull statistical analysis. The scale parameters were significantly evident from the indentation load of 98 N and the shot ball of ${\phi}180 {\mu}m$. Generally, the shape parameters were also evident from the small short ball (180sp). Thus, it is shown that the introduction of a compressive residual stress by SP is an effective technique for increasing the mechanical properties of $ZrO_2$.

The Vickers test can be used for all types of materials, and it has one of the widest scales among hardness tests. The hardness may be considered as a probability variable when evaluating the mechanical properties of materials. In this study, we investigate the statistical properties of the bending strength and Vickers hardness in $ZrO_2$ monolithic and $ZrO_2/SiC$ composites depending on the amount of $TiO_2$ additives. The bending strength and Vickers hardness were found to agree well with the Weibull probability distribution. We evaluate the scale parameter and shape parameter in as-received $ZrO_2$ and $ZrO_2/SiC/TiO_2$ ceramics, as well as their heat treated ceramics. We also evaluate the parameters in accordance with the increase in in the indentation load.

for many years already, testing laboratories, research institutes and manufactures try to find a reliable water tree accelerated ageing test that is able to show whether a polymer Medium Voltage cable os susceptible to water treeing or not. Test on laboratory samples, model cable designs, and fell size cable are presented. Apart form aging, another important aspect of any accelerated aging test is the right choice of th preconditioning method. THTS paper is the analysis of weibull distribution method after an accelerated aging test of MV(Medium Cable) cable.
