In this study, an aluminum electric motor car with a modular front end made of composite materials is numerically evaluated applying the standard specifications for the urban EMU(Electric Multiple Unit) train. Structural analyses under compressive load, torsional load and free vibration satisfy the standard specifications, but analysis under normal load doesn't. By the way, the aluminum bodyshell of the car except the modular front end is almost same to that of the Korean standard EMU, which satisfy the standard specifications. It is presumed that the stiffness of the modular front end made of composite materials haves some influence on the strength of the aluminum bodyshell.

Form the application of long rail system the non-ballast steel plate bridges, fatigue strength increase and rail noise reduction can be expected. This is mainly form the reduction of the rail impact at the rail joint locations which already made to behave together from welds. In the high speed rail, application of long rail system is essential because without long rail system, the required serviceability level can not be achieved. But even with this long rail systems, the thermal expansion from the girder can not be absorbed in the normal bearing systems, and these expansion cause between girder and rail. Also unexpected rail buckling and fracture through rail thermal tension may happen. It was found through numerical analysis and field measurement that these problems can be avoided by semi-fixed bearing system. In this study, the benefits of non-ballast plate bridge through long rail system, especially at the point of girder stability, girder stiffness increase and bearing maintenance will be reviewed.

Hydraulic excavators have been popular devices in construction fields because of their multi-workings and economic efficiency. The mathematical models of excavators have many nonlinearities because of opening characteristics and dead zone of main control valve(MCV), oil temperature variation, etc. The objective of this paper is to develop a simulator for hydraulic excavator using AMESim. Components and their circuits are expressed graphically. Also, parameters and nonlinear characteristics are considered in a text style. From the simulation results, fixed spring stiffness of MCV can not obtain the satisfactory accuracy of spool displacement under whole P-Q diagrams. Closed loop type MCV containing a proportional gain, is proposed in this paper that can reduce displacement error. The ability of closed loop MCV is verified through comparing with normal type MCV using AMESim simulator. The excavator simulator can be used to forecast the attachment behaviors when components, mechanical attachments and hydraulic circuits change, or other control algorithms are applied. The simulator could be a kind of development platform for new excavators.

This paper presents the theoretical development and qualitiative evaluation of a new concept in the mathematical modeling of dynamicstructures. We use both test data and analytical approximations to identify the parameters of an incomplete model. The model has the capability of prodicting the response of the points of interest on the structure over the frequency range of interest and can be used to predict the changes in natural frequencies and normal modes due to structural changes. The theory was tested by running simulated tests on a relatively simple structure, identifying the parameters of the incomplete model, and using this model to predict the effects on frequency and mode shapes of several mass and stiffness changes. The conditions of the test were varied by selecting different numbers of points of meansurement, varying the frequency range, and by including assumed measurement error. It is recommended that the theroetical development be continued and that applications to more complex structures be carried out in order todevelop a better understanding of the limitations and capabilites of the method. A successful, more definitive evaluation could lead to immediate practical applications.

The stress intensity factor has been calculated theoretically for the cracked plate subjected to remote normal stress and reinforced with a plate by symmetric seam welding. The singular integral equation was derived based on displacement compatibility condition between the cracked plate and the reinforcement plate, and solved by means of Erdogan and Gupta's method. The results from the derived equation for stress intensity factor were compared with FEM solutions and seems to be reasonable. The reinforcement effect gets better as welding line is closer to the crack and the stiffness ratio of the cracked plate and the reinforcement plate becomes larger.

Free vibration analysis of plates and shells is carried out by using isogeometric approach. For this purpose, an isogeometric shell element based on Reissner-Mindlin (RM) shell theory is developed. Non-uniform rational B-spline surface (NURBS) definition is introduced to represent the geometry of shell and it is also used to derive all terms required in the isogeometric element formulation. New anchor positions are proposed to calculate the shell normal vector. Gauss integration rule is used for the formation of stiffness and mass matrices. The proposed shell element is then used to examine vibrational behaviours of plate and shell structures. From numerical results, it is found to be that reliable natural frequencies and associated mode shapes can be predicted by the present isogeometric RM shell element.

The solution of the elliptic partial differential equation has interface singularity at the points which are either the intersections of interfaces or the intersections of interfaces with the boundary of the domain. The singularities that arises in the elliptic interface problems are very complex. In this article we propose an exponentially accurate nonconforming spectral element method for these problems based on [7, 18]. A geometric mesh is used in the neighbourhood of the singularities and the auxiliary map of the form z = ln ξ is introduced to remove the singularities. The method is essentially a least-squares method and the solution can be obtained by solving the normal equations using the preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCGM) without computing the mass and stiffness matrices. Numerical examples are presented to show the exponential accuracy of the method.

Aluminum based metal matrix composites(MMCs) are well known for their high specific strength, stiffness and hardness. They are gaining further importance because of their high wear resistance. In this study, Al/Saffil-20%, Al/Saffil-5%/Al2O3(particle type)-15% and Al/Saffil-5%/SiC(particle type)-15% hybird MMCs' wear behavior were characterized by the pin-on-disk test under various normal load The superior wear resistance was exhibited at Al/Saffil-5%/SiC(particle type)-15% MMCs. And this MMCs' predominant wear mechanism is subsurface cracking in the low load wear regime. Others(Al/Saffil-20%, Al/Saffil-5%/Al2O3(particle type)-15%) showed the similar wear resistance with each other at the same test condition. In the low load & room temperature condition, the wear resistance was improved due to the high hardness of the ceramic reinforcements. As the test load increased, the wear properties were governed by the wear properties of matrix.

In this study, an elastic network model is established in order to find dominant factors which reflect thermostability of protein structures. The connections in the elastic network model are selected with respect to the free energy between alpha-carbons, which is representatives of residues in the elastic network model. We carried out normal mode analysis and compared eigenvalues of the stiffness matrix from the elastic network model. In most cases, thermophilic proteins are observed to have higher values of lowest natural frequency than mesophiles and psychrophiles have. As a result, the thermophiles are calculated to be stiffer than other proteins in view of dynamic vibration.

When low sliding velocities in the boundary lubrication range are operating, irregular movements frequently occur which are a result of the stick-slip phenomenon. Such slide motions are undesirable in precision machine tools, particularly with feed back systems used in numerical and adaptive control machine tools. Accordingly, this paper reports analytical and experimental studies in the stick-slip characteristic of machine tool feeding system. The main conclusions of this study are as follows; The tendency towards stick-slip effects may be reduced by; 1). Reducing the drop in friction coefficient in the Stribeck curve(on the rising part of the friction characteristic at higher sliding speeds, the system is stable all the time) 2). Reducing the transition velocity by the use of a higher viscosity lubricating oil. 3). Increasing the stiffness(Damping)and reducing normal load(Sliding mass) Therefore, the Critical velocity is decided from the above conclusions and in designing of machine tool, feed rates(sliding velocity)must be design the more than critical velocity.
