This study aimed to analyze the fatigue of forklifts in industrial settings by assessing their stress levels during operation. Strain gauges were affixed to the dynamic components of the forklifts to gather real-time data and enhance the reliability of the analysis. Although monitoring structural loads in harsh testing environments can be challenging, the affixed strain gauges on the dynamic components can provide more precise results and improve the interpretation of data. By creating testing modes that simulate forklift usage environments and performing experiments with selected cargo and driving modes, a comparison of the damage severity of forklift parts under different driving conditions was done. These results can be utilized to forecast the lifespan of forklift parts under extreme driving conditions and assist in the design and optimization of new parts in the future.

Electrical damages to critical parts in rotating machinery have caused many machinery failures and hours of costly downtime. The problem of shaft currents generated in non-electrical machines has puzzled both users and manufacturers of these machines. The main solution for preventing electromagnetic type damage is to demagnetize all of the machinery parts, however this is costly and time consuming. Therefore a thorough investigation into the causes and physical characteristics of electromagnetic shaft currents is needed. In this paper, the self excitation theory was developed far a simple model, an axial flux Faraday disk machine surrounded by a long solenoid. Experimental tests were conducted to investigate the physical characteristics on an electromagnetic self excitation rig. The theory showed that the directions of both the shaft rotation and the coil turns should be identical if self excitation is to occur. From the tests, the electromagnetic type shaft current had both AC and DC components occurred at all vibration frequencies. This could point to a way to detect small instabilities or natural frequency locations by monitoring shaft currents.

Electrical damages to critical parts in rotation machinery have caused may machinery failures and hours of costly downtime. The problem of shaft currents generated in non-electrical machines have puzzled both users and manufacturers of these machines. The main solution for preventing electro- magnetic type damage is to demagnetize all of the machinery parts, however this is costly and time consuming. Therefore a thorough investigation into the causes and physical characteristics of electro- magnetic shaft currents is needed. In this paper, the self excitation theory was developed for a simple model, and axial flux Faraday disk machine surrounded by a long solenoid. Experimental tests were conducted to investigate the physical characteristics on an electromagnetic self excitation rig. The theory showed that the directions of both the shaft rotation and the coil turns should e identical if self excitation is to occur.

The optical elements made of plastics are normally produced by mass production such as injection molding with use of precision dies and molds. It costs to prepare the dies and molds, and it is only justified to prepare such expensive dies and molds when the parts are massively produced. On the other hand, it is too expensive and inefficient when precision plastic parts are needed only in small quantities, such as a case of trial manufacturing of new products. An ultra-precision diamond cutting is one of promising processes to produce the precision plastic parts in such cases. But it is commonly believed that an ultra-precision cutting of plastics for optical components is very difficult, because they are thermo-plastic material. In the present research, an ultra-precision diamond cutting of polycarbonate (PC), that is one of typical optical materials, was tried by using elliptical vibration cutting method. It is experimentally proved that good optical surfaces were obtained by using elliptical vibration cutting in cases of grooving and flat surfaces. The maximum surface roughness of less than 60 nm in peak to valley value is acquired.

열간성형된 보론강판은 고강도특성이 필요한 자동차 부품에 널리 적용되고 있으며, 최근에는 샤시 부품에도 점차로 적용되고 있다. 샤시 부품으로 적용되기 위해서 고강도 특성뿐만 아니라 내피로특성이 동시에 요구되고 있어, 본 연구에서 열간성형된 보론강판의 저주기 피로특성을 연구하였다. 저주기 피로시험결과, 총변형률 진폭이 낮은 영역에서는 열간성형된 보론강의 피로수명이 현저히 높았지만, 높은 총변형률 진폭에서는 열간성형된 보론강의 마르텐사이트 조직특성인 낮은 연성과 파괴인성으로 인해서 보론강 원소재의 피로수명이 더 높음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) has been used to convert thermal energy to mechanical energy or electricity. The available thermal energy could be waste heat, solar energy, geothermal energy, and so on. However, these kinds of thermal energies cannot be provided continuously. Hence, the ORC can be operated at the off-design point. In this case, the performance of the ORC could be worse because the components of the ORC system designed based on a design point can be mismatched with the output power obtained at the off-design point. In order to improve the performance at the off-design point, a few components were replaced including generator, bearing, load bank, shaft, pump and so on. Experiments were performed on the same facility without including other losses in the experiment. The experimental results were compared with the results obtained with the previous model, and they showed that the system efficiency of the ORC was greatly affected by the losses occurred on the components.

Development of highly efficient and energy-saving tractors has been one of the issues in agricultural machinery. For design of such tractors, measurement and analysis of load on major power transmission parts of the tractors are the most important pre-requisite tasks. Objective of this study was to perform pre-processing procedures before effective analysis of load data of agricultural tractors (30, 75, and 82 kW) during major field operations such as plow tillage, rotary tillage, baling, bale wrapping, and to select the suitable pre-processing method for the analysis. A load measurement systems, equipped in the tractors, were consisted of strain-gauge, encoder, hydraulic pressure, and radar speed sensors to measure torque and rotational speed levels of transmission input shaft, PTO shaft, and driving axle shafts, pressure of the hydraulic inlet line, and travel speed, respectively. The entire sensor data were collected at a 200-Hz rate. Plow tillage, rotary tillage, baling, wrapping, and loader operations were selected as major field operations of agricultural tractors. Same or different farm works and driving levels were set differently for each of the load measuring experiment. Before load data analysis, pre-processing procedures such as outlier removal, low-pass filtering, and data division were performed. Data beyond the scope of the measuring range of the sensors and the operating range of the power transmission parts were removed. Considering engine and PTO rotational speeds, frequency components greater than 90, 60, and 60 Hz cut off frequencies were low-pass filtered for plow tillage, rotary tillage, and baler operations, respectively. Measured load data were divided into five parts: driving, working, implement up, implement down, and turning. Results of the study would provide useful information for load characteristics of tractors on major field operations.

Nickel base Alloy X-750, which is used as fastener parts in light-water reactor (LWR), has experienced many failures by environmentally assisted cracking (EAC). In order to improve the reliability of passive components for nuclear power plants (NPP's), it is necessary to study the failure mechanism and to predict crack growth behavior by developing a probabilistic failure model. In this study, The Bayesian inference was employed to reduce the uncertainties contained in EAC modeling parameters that have been established from experiments with Alloy X-750. Corrosion fatigue crack growth rate model (FCGR) was developed by fitting into Paris' Law of measured data from the several fatigue tests conducted either in constant load or constant ΔK mode. These parameters characterizing the corrosion fatigue crack growth behavior of X-750 were successfully updated to reduce the uncertainty in the model by using the Bayesian inference method. It is demonstrated that probabilistic failure models for passive components can be developed by updating a laboratory model with field-inspection data, when crack growth rates (CGRs) are low and multiple inspections can be made prior to the component failure.
