Field and accelerated tests are performed to assess the service life of construction sealants. Mathematical degradation models for tensile strength and elongation, that are the two major performance characteristics of sealants, are derived from the test results. Accelerated degradation test methods for assessing service life of construction sealants are developed based on the degrading performance and a numerical example is provided.

Web-based analysis programs for reliability assessment of machine tools were developed in this study. First, the reliability data analysis program was developed to search for failure rate using failure data and reliability test data of mechanical part. Second, failure mode analysis was developed through performance tests like circular movement test vibration test for machine tools. This analysis program shows correlation between failure mode and performance test result. Third, tool life was predicted by correlation between flank wear and cutting time, using the extended Taylor tool life equation in turning data and the equivalently converted equation in order to apply ball endmill data to Taylor tool life equation in milling data. All the information related to input and result data can be stored in theses programs.

사용조건에서 수명시험을 수행할 경우 시험시간이 많이 소요되므로 사용조건보다 가혹한 스트레스 조건을 추가하여 가속수명시험을 수행하면 시험시간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 수명에 영향을 미치는 스트레스를 선정하여 각 스트레스의 사용조건과 가속조건에서 시험을 수행할 경우 가속 스트레스간에 교호작용이 존재할 수 있다. 그러나 기존의 연구에서는 2가지 이상의 가속 스트레스를 부과하여 가속수명시험을 수행할 경우 교호작용을 고려하지 않은 경우와 가속 수명에 대한 모델식을 제시한 연구들이 대부분이다. 본 논문에서는 기계류 부품의 수명에 영향을 미치는 가속 스트레스를 선정한 후 교호작용을 고려한 시험계획에 따라 가속수명시험을 수행한 자료를 이용하여 가속 계수와 가속 스트레스간의 관계식을 산출하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 본 논문에서 제시한 교호작용을 고려한 가속시험방법과 가속 계수를 산출할 수 있는 모델식을 이용하여 복합적인 가속수명시험 수행시 쉽게 적용하고 결과를 산출할 수 있는 기초가 될 것으로 기대된다.

Small valves including ball valves, gate valves and butterfly valves have been adopted in the fields of steam power generation, petrochemical industry, carriers, and oil tankers. Butterfly valves have normally been applied to fields where in narrow places installing the existing valves such as gate valves and ball valves have proven difficult due to the surrounding area and the heavier of these valves. Butterfly valves are used to control the mass flow of the piping system under low pressure by rotating the circular disk installed inside. The butterfly valve is benefitted by having simpler structure in which the flow is controlled by rotating the disc circular plate along the center axis, whereas the weight of the valve is light compared to the gate valve and ball valve above-mentioned, as there is no additional bracket supporting the valve body. The manufacturing company needs to acquire the performance and life test equipment, in the case of adopting the improving factors to detect leakage and damage on the seat of the valve disc. However, small companies, which are manufacturing the industrial valves, normally sell their products without the life test, which is the reliability test and environment test, because of financial and manpower problems. Furthermore, the failure mode analysis of the products failed in the field is likewise problematic as there is no system collecting the failure data on sites for analyzing the failures of valves. The analyzing and researching process is not arranged systematically because of the financial problem. Therefore this study firstly tried to obtain information about the failure data from the sites, analyzed the failure mode based on the field data collected from the customers, and then obtained field data using measuring equipment. Secondly, we designed and manufactured the performance and life test equipment which also have the real time monitoring system with the naked eye for the butterfly valves. The concept of this equipment can also be adopted by other valves, such as the ball valve, gate valve, and various others. It can be applied to variously sized valves, ranging from 25 mm to large sized valves exceeding 3000 mm. Finally, this study carries out the life test with square wave pressure, using performance and life test equipment. The performance found out that the failures from the real time monitoring system were good. The results of this study can be expanded to the other valves like ball valves, gate valves, and control valves to find out the failure mode using the real time monitoring system for durability and performance tests.

Automobile markets are so fierce in the world market that every major manufacturer assure the buyer of the car by give a provocative warranty plan for their cars. For instance Hyundai motor company offer 10 years and 100,000 miles of warranty whichever comes first. But in order for this effort to be successful every critical component such as window switch has to be proven to be reliable in an adverse environment. Therefore, in this article reliability assessment criteria for window switch are established in terms of basic performance test, environment test and life test.

In the industry, the use of lightweight bearings is increasing to minimize motor power loss, and in particular, the application of next-generation systems such as robots and drones is increasing. Bearing manufacturers are producing lightweight bearings by changing the bearing material, but related researches is insufficient. In this paper, life test and structural analysis were performed for lightweight bearings, and shape parameters and scale parameters were derived based on the life test results. It was confirmed that the shape parameter was 2.52 and the scale parameter was 164 hours. As a result of calculating the dynamic load rating based on the B₁₀ life, it was confirmed that the dynamic load rating of the lightweight bearing was 7% compared to the formula suggested by ISO 281. The reason is that the material of the retainer, which is a major failure part, is a polyamide 66 series that reacts sensitively to heat, so It is judged to show a lot of difference from the ISO 281 calculation formula.

The hydraulic servo actuator has always operated very precisely with high frequency and small displacement, and is used continuously for a long time. The hydraulic servo actuator of the test equipment used in the accelerated life test in order to guarantee the service life of the automotive parts failed earlier than the products before finishing the test. This study performed an analysis on the cause of the failure of the hydraulic servo actuator used in the test equipment, changed the design of the actuator to solve the root cause of the main failure mode, and developed the improved servo actuator. Based on above process, this study established a better performances and longer lifetime of the servo actuator after testing.

사람과 전자기기들은 우리 주변의 환경 속, 특히 병원의 자기 공명 영상(Magnetic resonance imaging, MRI) 장비 또는 군용으로 사용되는 전자기 펄스(Electromagnetic pulse, EMP) 장비, 그리고 수많은 전자파를 만들어 내는 장치들에 노출되는 경우가 잦아졌다. 이러한 전자파는 사람과 전자기기에 유해하고, 이를 차폐하기 위해 사용되는 것 중에 하나가 핑거 스트립이다. 핑거 스트립은 열전도성이 좋기 때문에 전자파를 흡수하여 열로 변환한다. 이 특징을 효과적으로 이용하여 전자파 차폐가 필요한 실내의 특수 문짝에 핑거 스트립을 설치해서, 전자파로부터 사람과 전자기기들을 보호한다. 본 연구에서는 핑거 스트립의 주 고장모드에 영향을 주는 가속인자로 하중을 선택하여 가속수명시험을 실시한다. 가속수명시험의 결과로부터 핑거 스트립의 실사용조건 수명을 예측하며, 동일한 조건에서 실시한 수명 시험 결과와 비교하여 가속수명시험의 유효성을 평가하고자 하였다.

The creep life fraction can be evaluated by the degree of grain deformation since the grain of Cr-Mo base metal deforms in the direction of stress. The grain deformation method using image processing technique is developed for life assessment of in-service high-temperature components. The new assessment model of grain deformation method is presented to apply to in-service components and is verified by interrupted creep test for ex-serviced material of 1Cr-0.5Mo steel. The proposed model, which is irrespective of stress direction, is to evaluate mean of the absolute deviation for the measured ratios which are diametrical maximum to minimum dimensions for grains.

Korea Institute of Construction Materials founded Seosan Outdoor Exposure Test Site 2005 at Korea, which is a part of Worldwide Exposure Network (WEN). To evaluate the test site along with other exposure test sites, three different types of paints have been under real time weathering conditions at three major weathering test facilities around the world. Using these test specimens several spectroscopic experiments along with physical tests have been performed. Also acceleration tests have been performed using the same paints. The correlation of weathered paints among three different test facilities and accelerated test results has been compared. From the results the reliability of Seosan Weathering Test Facility and reasonable life time prediction tests are discussed.
