본 연구에서는 국내 고정익항공기 개발의 일환으로 고정익항공기용 외부 연료탱크와 파일런에 대한 피로해석을 수행하였다. 구조해석을 통해 외부 연료탱크와 파일런의 피로해석 부위들을 선정하고, 선정된 부위들에서 단위하중에 대한 전달함수를 구축하였다. 연속 하중 프로파일에 대해서 각 프로파일 하중과 전달함수와의 내적을 통해 선정 부위에서의 응력 성분을 계산한 후, Von Mises 등가응력을 사용하여 각 프로파일의 대표응력(Representative Stress)을 계산하였다. 그리고, 구축된 대표 응력 그룹에 Rainflow Counting 기법을 사용하여 초기의 방대한 하중 프로파일로 부터 축소된 개별 프로파일과 그에 대한 진폭 및 평균값을 추출한 후, MMPDS(Metallic Materials Properties Development and Standardization)의 S-N 선도를 적용하여 수명싸이클을 계산하였다. 만약, 추출된 개별 프로파일들의 Stress Ratio가 선정된 S-N 선도의 Stress Ratio 범위를 벗어나는 경우 Modified Goodman 선도로부터 유도된 식을 사용하여 Stress Ratio가 해당 S-N 선도에서 요구하는 범위를 만족하도록 변환하는 과정을 거쳤다. 그리고, Miner's Rule에 의해 계산된 각 프로파일들의 손상값들을 더하여 선정 부위에서의 수명을 평가하였다. 최종적으로 수명평가를 위해 선정된 외부연료탱크와 파일런의 관심 부위에서 요구 수명을 모두 만족하는 것으로 평가되었다.

This paper presents a mooring design procedure for a floating offshore wind turbine. Offshore environmental data for Jeju are taken from KHOA (Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Administration) and used for the environmental conditions in numerical analyses. A semi-submersible-type floating wind system with a 5-MW-class wind turbine studied by the DeepCwind Consortium is applied. Catenary mooring with a studless chain is chosen as the mooring system. Design deliverables such as the nominal sizes of chain and length of the mooring line are decided by considering the long-term prediction of the breaking strength of the mooring lines where a 100-year return period is used. The designed mooring system is verified using a fatigue calculation based on rain-flow cycle counting, an S-N curve, and a Miner's damage summation of rule. The mooring tension process is obtained from time-domain motion analyses using ANSYS/AQWA.

An end beam is one of the most important structural members supporting uncovered freight under in-service loading. In general, it needs to endure over 25 years. However fatigue fracture has occurred at dynamic stress concentration location of the end beam because user's specifications demanded high speed and vehicle manufacturer made the uncovered freight car with comparatively low strength and stiffness. For durability analysis, finite element analysis is performed to evaluate the problem of uncovered freight structure and local strain. The uncovered freight car was operated on actual problematic railroad line to measure dynamic stress versus time history on the critical part from which a crack is initiated often. Rainflow cycle counting method was used to estimate fatigue damage at dangerous area under operating condition. Therefore, this study shows that analytical fatigue life at the end beam can be predicted on the basis of S-N curve and structure analysis and has a fairly good correlation with experimental fatigue life.

Because offshore structures are affected by various environmental loads, the risk of damage is high. As a result of ever-changing ocean environmental loads, damage to offshore structures is expected to differ from year to year. However, in previous studies, it was assumed that a relatively short period of load acts repeatedly during the design life of a structure. In this study, the residual life of an offshore wind turbine support structure was evaluated in consideration of the timing uncertainty of the ocean environmental load. Sampling points for the wind velocity, wave height, and wave period were generated using a central composites design, and a transfer function was constructed from the numerical analysis results. A simulation was performed using the joint probability model of ocean environmental loads. The stress time history was calculated by entering the load samples generated by the simulation into the transfer function. The damage to the structure was calculated using the rain-flow counting method, Goodman equation, Miner's rule, and S-N curve. The results confirmed that the wind speed generated at a specific time could not represent the wind speed that could occur during the design life of the structure.

The estimation of fatigue integrity is very important for aerospace structures such as engine mount strut. The reason is that the fatigue integrity is essential analysis process to establish the structural stability in aerospace field. Therefore, in this paper, the process of fatigue analysis and test was performed for engine mount strut to prove the structural fatigue integrity. First of all, the fatigue load spectrum is constructed by considering the small aircraft operating condition. Fatigue analysis is done for the cluster near the welding zone which may have F.C.L.(fracture critical location). The fatigue life of engine mount strut was estimated by the Miner's rule which is the damage summation method. Finally, Fatigue test is performed to verify the fatigue integrity. The estimation process of fatigue integrity for engine mount strut of small aircraft may help the design.

대형 용접 구조물에 대한 피로설계 수명의 예측은 일반적으로 Palmgren Miner과 등가손상도 방법 또는 선형누적손상도 방법을 사용한다. 또한 용접 구조물에서 피로 균열이 발생되면 잔존 수명은 S-N 곡선과 선형 파괴역학에 기초하여 예측되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 면외거셋 용접이음의 3차원 피로균열 진전거동과 피로수명을 예측하기 위하여 피로 시험을 실시하였다. 면외거셋 용접이음의 3차원 피로균열진전해석은 NX NASTRAN 및 FRANC3D를 이용하여 유한요소 해석을 실시하였다. 면외거셋 용접이음의 균열 형상비, 초기균열 크기 및 응력비에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 피로균열진전 해석을 실시하였다. 또한 초기균열크기, 균열 형상비와 응력비의 변화에 따른 3차원 피로균열진전 해석 결과와 피로시험결과를 비교하였다. 피로균열진전 해석결과, 피로균열 진전속도와 응력확대계수와의 관계에서 피로시험과 유사하게 나타남을 확인하였으며, 면외거셋 용접이음의 피로수명을 추정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In terms of saving costs, energy and materials, the weight of cars has been gradually reduced by optimizing design of structure, which also gives us good performance. In compliance with this, it should satisfy the lifetime of cars for 25 years under the operation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the strength of fatigue using date from strain gauges attached carbody and bogie frame. This dynamic stress can be evaluated using S-N curve based on stress amplitude. Modified S-N curve by CORTON-DOLAN is used for more conservative and substantial evaluation. In addition, !he loadings itself of carbody and bogie frame are considered by calculating the rate of the differences which are occurred between empty car and fuiiy occupied car with passengers. Rainflow cycle counting method is applied to arrange the stress data for the modified S-N curve to predict lifetime of the materials. Conclusively the cumulative damages are not only calculated by Miner's Rule, but the safety factors are also determined by Goodman diagram.

본 연구는 트랙터 변속기의 성능평가, 내구성 향상 및 최적 설계 등을 위한 기초 연구로써 로타리 작업에 따른 78 kW급 농업용 트랙터의 엔진 토크를 CAN 통신을 이용하여 수집하고, 등가 토크를 분석하였다. 신뢰성 높은 트랙터 개발을 위해서는 실제 농작업 환경에서 발생하는 부하를 등가 토크로 변환하여, 분석하는 것이 필요하다. 등가 토크는 대표적인 누적 손상법인 Palmgren-Miner 식으로 작업 및 선회구간에 대하여 계산되었으며, 각각 229.2, 136.7 Nm로 나타났다. 로타리 작업구간에서 최대 및 평균 토크는 각각 336.0, 234.4 Nm로 나타났으며, 선회구간의 최대 및 평균 토크는 288.0, 134.6 Nm로 나타났다. 로타리 작업구간에서의 엔진 토크는 PTO를 통해 토양을 경운하기 때문에 선회구간보다 높게 나타났다. 엔진의 최대 및 정격 토크는 각각 387.0, 323.0 Nm로, 로타리 작업 및 선회구간의 등가 토크보다 각각 183%, 136% 높게 나타났다. 국내 트랙터 회사는 일반적으로 엔진의 정격 토크를 기준으로 변속기를 설계하기 때문에, 실제 작업 토크와 다소 차이가 있다. 그러므로 최적 설계를 위해 실제 작업 토크를 고려하는 것이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper predicts the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with a precast strip of ultra-high performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). In the first phase, ultimate load capacity of preloaded and strengthened RC beams by UHPFRC was predicted by using various analytical models available in the literature. RC beams were preloaded under static loading approximately to 70%, 80% and 90% of ultimate load of control beams. The models such as modified Kaar and sectional analysis predicted the ultimate load in close agreement to the corresponding experimental observations. In the second phase, the famous fatigue life models such as Papakonstantinou model and Ferrier model were employed to predict the number of cycles to failure and the corresponding deflection. The models were used to predict the life of the (i) strengthened RC beams after subjecting them to different pre-loadings (70%, 80% and 90% of ultimate load) under static loading and (ii) strengthened RC beams after subjecting them to different preloading cycles under fatigue loading. In both the cases precast UHPFRC strip of 10 mm thickness is attached on the tension face. It is found that both the models predicted the number of cycles to failure and the corresponding deflection very close to the experimental values. It can be concluded that the models are found to be robust and reliable for cement based strengthening systems also. Further, the Wang model which is based on Palmgren-Miner's rule is employed to predict the no. of cycles to failure and it is found that the predicted values are in very good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations.

Purpose: A chisel mounted on working implement, such as agricultural machinery used in irregular farming conditions, is subjected to highly variable fatigue loading during work. To ensure the safety of the chisel on a working implement for the duration of its service life, fatigue testing must be performed with the proper fatigue test load conditions. In this study, working loads for a chisel were developed by reconstructing loads from strain gage data collected during field tests and used to conduct fatigue tests on the chisel component. Methods: FE analysis with nCode software was utilized to select the proper quantity and locations of strain gages for load measurements. A fatigue test was performed to experimentally verify the fatigue strength of the chisel and to evaluate the validity of the load history developed with the load reconstruction technique. Results: A strain history for the chisel was obtained from data collected during field tests. The data was filtered for the 14-16 km/h speed range, connected, and merged. The chisel load history was developed using the load reconstruction technique. The resulting load history was expressed as a load spectrum using the rain-flow counting method. Conclusions: A fatigue test was conducted on a chisel under a constant load condition with an equivalent load amplitude and number of cycles, as calculated by Miner's Rule for linear damage accumulation. During the fatigue test, there were no cracks at any position. It is concluded that the fatigue test method proposed in this study can be utilized successfully as a durability evaluation method for the chisel.
