In this study, retardation behavior of fatigue crack under single overloading of the mixed mode state was experimentally investigated. To produce single overload in the mixed mode I+II state, the compact tension shear (CTS) specimen and loading device were used. The propagation tests for fatigue crack were performed under mode I and mixed-mode loading overloading afterwards. We examined the observed deformation aspects, the variation of fatigue life and crack propagation rate, and the aspects of retardation behavior from tests. The retardation effect of mixed-mode single overload on fatigue crack propagation behavior was smaller than that of mode I single overload. Also the loading modes of variable and constant amplitude loads have influence on the retardation behavior of fatigue cracks.

Fatigue crack propagation of duplex stainless steel weldments was studied to develop further phenomenological understanding of the influences of welding heat cycle accompanying microstructural changes. Fatigue tests were carried out under constant amplitude of load in air at room temperature. The results showed that the crack propagation rate was different in base metal, heat affected zone and welding line. The crack propagation behavior in each part of duplex stainless steel was strongly dependent on phase ratio(.gamma../.alpha.) and several factors of microstructure also affected this propagation behavior. The fractographic feature in each part of steel were discussed on crack propagation behaviors.

본 연구에서는 정4각단면덕트 입구영역에서 층류맥동유동(laminar pulsating flows)의 유동특성을 이론 및 실험적으로 규명하기 위하여, 이론적 방법으로 덕트 입 구영역에서의 층류맥동유동에 대한 운동량방정식을 유도한 후 비선형인 대류항을 선형 화 시켜서 라플라스변환으로 속도분포식의 해를 구하였고, 실험적인 방법으로는 시험 덕트 크기는 횡단면의 가로*세로가 40mm*40mm이고, 길이가 4000mm인 정4각단면덕트 입구영역에서 송풍기에 의한 공기흡입유동으로 층류진동유동을 발생하며 이들 두유동 을 합성시켜 발생한 층류맥동유동에 대하여 열선유속계의 열선신호로부터 얻어진 속도 파형을 고찰하여 덕트내의 맥동유동에 대한 임계레이놀즈수를 결정하고 속도분포를 측 정하였다. 그리고 이론적으로 얻어진 속도분포식과 열선유속계로 측정한 속도분포를 비교검토하여 정확성을 검증하고, 이들 해석결과로 부터 층류맥동유동의 입구길이(en- trance lenght)식을 결정하여 제안하였다.

Because of the severe service environment of the large marine vessel, the fatigue strength and its evaluation play an important role in design and maintenance of marine crankshaft. The aim of this work is to investigate the probability distribution of fatigue lives in crank throw forged steel and to develop the methodology for estimation of the probabilistic design fatigue strength. Detailed studies were performed on the constant amplitude axial loading fatigue test. The experiments were controlled by stress ratio of -1 and 15Hz frequency for each stress level. The considerable variability of fatigue life was observed in each stress level under rigidly controlled constant fatigue testing conditions. The fatigue life of crank throw forged steel was well followed the log-normal and Weibull distribution. In addition, it can be used for the estimation of probabilistic design fatigue strength by using the proposed methodology.

The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of welding residual stresses on the fatigue crack growth behavior of cracks located transverse to the weld bead. For this purpose, G. T. A (Gas Tungsten Arc) welding was performed on hte Al alloy 1100-O plate and the same initial crack is made on HAZ(Heat Affected Zone), weld metal and base meta respectively. Specimens were used CT(Compact Tension) specimens. Initial welding residual stresses were measured by using strai gage sectioning method. All specimens were tested under constant amplitude load with stress ratio R=0.1, It is possible to predict fatigue crack growth behaviors and the fatigue life, using numerical analysis together with distribution of initial residual stress and the values of C and m obtained from $da/dN-{\Delta}K$

Polycarbonate (PC) polymer is an engineering plastic which has large tensile strength and impact resistance and is wildly used as functional parts like micro mold. Direct machining of PC materials produces lots of burrs and rough surface due to large ductility and weak heat resistance and hence it is very difficult to machine PC materials using cutting tool to make micro-parts. In this study, elliptical vibration cutting (EVC) or 2-dimensional vibration cutting was performed to minimize the size of micro V-grooves on PC material. From the experimental results, it was observed that as the cutting depth and pattern size become smaller, the better machining quality was obtained, which is attributed to the positive effect of EVC that is dependent on the ratio of vibration amplitude to cutting depth. As the height of V-groove becomes less than $1.8{\mu}m$, however, the machining quality becomes lower as the pattern size decreases.

In this paper, flow-induced flutter instability of cantilever carbon nanotubes conveying fluid and modelled as a thin-walled beam is investigated. Non-classical effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia are incorporated in this study. The governing equations and the associated boundary conditions are derived through Hamilton's principle. Numerical analysis is performed by using extend Galerkin method which enables us to obtain more exact solutions compared with conventional Galerkin method. Cantilevered carbon nanotubes are damped with decaying amplitude for flow velocity below a certain critical value, however, beyond this critical flow velocity, flutter instability may occur. Variations of critical flow velocity with both radius ratio and length of carbon nanotubes are investigated and pertinent conclusion is outlined.

Ground motion scaling techniques are actively debated in the earthquake engineering community. Considerations such as what amplitude, over what period range and to what target spectrum are amongst the questions of practical importance. In this paper, the effect of various ground motion scaling approaches are explored using three reinforced concrete prototypical building models of 8, 12 and 20 stories designed to respond nonlinearly under a design level earthquake event in the seismically active Southern California region. Twenty-one recorded earthquake motions are selected using a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and subsequently scaled using four different strategies. These motions are subsequently compared to spectrally compatible motions. The nonlinear response of a planar frameidealized building is evaluated in terms of plasticity distribution, floor level acceleration and uncorrelated acceleration amplification ratio distributions; and interstory drift distributions. The most pronounced response variability observed in association with the scaling method is the extent of higher mode participation in the nonlinear demands.

In micro electrochemical machining (micro ECM), machining conditions have been determined to maintain a small side gap and to machine a workpiece stably However, machining speed is slow. To improve machining speed while maintaining the form accuracy, the paper investigates machining parameters such as pulse amplitude, duty ratio, pulse on-time, and the electrolyte's temperature and concentration. The experiment in this study shows that the electrolyte's concentration is the key factor that can reduce machining time while maintaining the form accuracy Micro square columns were fabricated to confirm the machining parameters' effects.

This paper presents the wideband vibration system of an electromagnetic vibration energy harvester that obtained electric power for wireless sensor applications from the ever-change vibrations of bridge. It is a system with two degree of freedom vibrations that are composed of two mass and two spring respectively. One system is housing mass and spring, the other is the magnetic mass and spring that is the vibration system construction's element of electromagnetic vibration energy harvester. In other words, it is called dynamic vibration absorber. This paper show that the ratio of housing mass to magnetic mass decides the bandwidth and the size of amplitude of magnetic mass in electromagnetic vibration energy harvester. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of energy in electromagnetic vibration energy harvester for wireless sensor applications.
