This paper describes the result of endurance test of the brake system of the Korean EMU on the Sangju test track. The purpose of the test is to prove the endurance of brake system. Test conditions are more severe than actual operation on the commercial line. As of October, test result is good without severe problems. 100,000km of test operation will be continued by the end of this year to check the endurance of the brake system.

A military vehicle is driven at different usage modes with the army application and servicing conditions. For practical durability validation, DT(Development Test) on a new military vehicle should be run up to the durability target kilometers on test courses in the specified proving ground. Driving velocities with test courses at the endurance mode of DT are established definitely. However, OT(Operational Test) and initial endurance test of production car can't be performed only in the DT courses due to the development period limit. Therefore, this paper focuses on the method to analyze the relative road damages between the endurance test in DT and other endurance test. Road load acquisition tests on KLTV(Korean Light Tactical Vehicle) were implemented at 15 driving modes in off-road and cross-country courses of two tests. Wheel accelerations were processed through band-pass filter, and then the main frequency and maximum power of the signals were computed by PSD analysis. Finally, using the proving ground optimization based on RDS(Relative Damage Spectrum) characterization, the damage factors between off-roads of test courses were determined.

This paper propose the test method for a performance of the myoelectric hand prosthesis(MHP) controlled according to the myoelectric signal generated in the human muscle. The MHP consists of a mechanical hand, a surface myoelectric sensor(SMES) for a measuring myoelectric signal, a control system and a charging battery. The two commercialized MHP is tested for the grip endurance property. The test results is not difference a noise and a grip force. The proposed test method is proved the reliability of MHP by the endurance test.

All of the Korean high speed train windows have been imported from abroad up to now. In this paper, the air pressure endurance test device for high speed train windows was studied and developed. This test device can create air pressure variation similar to train running real condition and carry out pressure endurance test according to international standard. Henceforward, this test device will be useful for domestic production of high speed train windows.

Purpose : Patients with Parkionson's disease have a temporal and spatial restriction for their's exercise treatment. The aim of this study is to verify the effectiveness of e-exercise program on balance, gait, and endurance ability in people with Parkinson's disease. Methods : Eighteen participants, with Parkinson's disease that ranged from stage to on the Hoehn & Yahr scale, were assigned to two group. Two group were divided into on-line group that exercised in home by computer video, and off-line group that exercised in clinical center. Exercise program that included 3 sections (warm-up, main exercise, cool down)-5 parts(stretch, strength, balance, gait, stretch) was used to train for participants. We used the functional reach test for balance ability, timed up and go test for gait ability, 6 minute walking test for endurance ability. Wilkoxon sign lank tests were used to assess the difference of balance, gait, and endurance ability in pre-and post test each groups. Mann-whitney tests were used to assess the difference of balance, gait, and endurance ability between groups. Results : Wilkoxon sign lank tests revealed that both group were improved the balance, gait and endurance agility by e-exercise program intervention. Mann-whitney tests showed that there were no differences between groups in the variation of balance, gait, endurance ability. Conclusion : We believe that exercise program with on-line(e-exercise program) is an effective intervention for people with Parkinson's disease and is no different than off-line exercise group in the variation of balance, gait, endurance ability.

The equipment in ships and railway vehicles are continuously exposed to vibration, and its durability is very important. Therefore, consumers require the verification of the performance of equipment via standardized tests under the given environments to improve and stabilize the performance. In this study, a durability improvement and stabilization plan was proposed, which included the exploratory vibration test, variable frequency test and endurance test for the electrical equipment according to the vibration environment. It is expected that this study results will improve the technological competitive power of the ship and railway-related manufacturers and contribute to the equipment development and export.

The CFT(Cornering Fatigue test) and RFT(Radial Fatigue Test) are tests for evaluating the endurance of the disc and rim region of the wheel. In recent, automobile wheel safety standards have been revised and the applied load and target life criteria are different from existing conditions. The verification evaluation of all wheels requires a lot of time and cost. In this study, the endurance severity of each test was compared through strain-life approach by selecting 4 steel and 8 aluminum wheels.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of plantar flexor on muscle fatigue and endurance when two different sport tapes are applied. Design: Cross-sectional design. Methods: Fifty-one healthy adults were randomly assigned to dynamic taping group (n=17), kinesio taping group (n=17), and control group (n=17). The dynamic taping group used the dynamic tape. The kinesio tape group used the kinesio tape, and the control group doesn't used tape. Every group performed heel rise test and sEMG for every during pre-test and post-test. To evaluate plantar flexor endurance, the number of times was measured during the heel rise test. Results: The number of heel rises increased significantly in the post-test in dynamic taping group compared to the pre-test, and In comparison between groups, the number of heel rises significantly increased in dynamic taping group compared to kinesio taping group and control group. PEF value was significantly increased in the post-test compared to the pre-test in dynamic taping group, and there was a significant difference between the three groups according to the taping application. Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that dynamic taping was effective in musclular fatigue and endurance on plantar flexor in healthy adults. Based on these results, it is suggested that the application of dynamic tape can be suggested as one of the intervention methods for muscle endurance and muscle fatigue.

A new endurance test-pattern generation on NAND-flash memory is proposed to improve test cost. We mainly focus on the correlation between the data-pattern and the device error-rate during endurance testing. The novelty is the development of testing method using quasi-random pattern based on device architectures in order to increase the test efficiency during time-consuming endurance testing. It has been proven by the experiments using the commercial 32 nm NAND flash-memory. Using the proposed method, the error-rate increases up to 18.6% compared to that of the conventional method which uses pseudo-random pattern. Endurance testing time using the proposed quasi-random pattern is faster than that of using the conventional pseudo-random pattern since it is possible to reach the target error rate quickly using the proposed one. Accordingly, the proposed method provides more low-cost testing solutions compared to the previous pseudo-random testing patterns.

In Europe, it is necessary to fulfil the type certification criteria by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) when developing an aircraft engine. According to type certification criteria, a 150 hours endurance test should be performed to verify the stability of the engine structure under the engine's operating limit conditions. The type certification criteria for the 150 hour endurance test are specified in JAR-E, which is the EASA type certification. Currently, the Arriel 2L2 engine is being developed in cooperation with a foreign manufacturer, and a 150 hours endurance test was performed. In this study, a 150 hours endurance test procedure is conducted in consideration of the operation characteristics of the currently developed engine.
