The compact tension specimen geometry has been widely used for measuring fatigue crack growth rates at elevated temperature when the fatigue load is under tension/tension condition. However, most of the elevated temperature components which have significant crack growth life experience fatigue load under tension/compression conditions. Thus test techniques are required since the compact tension specimen cannot be used for tension/compression loading. In this paper, a simplified test procedure for measureing fatigue crack growth rates is proposed, which employs a round bar specimen with a small surface crack. Fatigue crack growth rates under tension/ tension loading conditions at elevated temperature were measured according to the proposed procedure and compared with those previously measured by C/(T) specimens. Since both the measured crack growth rates were comparable, the fatigue crack growth rates under tension/ compression load can be reliably measured by the proposed procedure. For monitoring crack depth. DC electric potential method is employed and an optimal probe location and current input conditions were proposed.

The hat shaped section members, spot welded strength resisting structures are the most energy absorbing ones of automobile components during the front-end collision. Under the static axial collapse load in velocity of 10mm/min and quasi-static collapse load in velocity of 1000mm/min, the collapse characteristics of the hat shaped section and double hat shaped section member have been analyzed by axial collapse tests with respect to the variations of spot weld pitches on the flanges. In addition, the quasi-static collapse simulations have been implemented in the same condition to the experiment's using FEM package, LS-DYNA3D. The simulated results have been verified in comparison with these from the quasi-static axial collapse tests. With the computational approaches the optimal energy absorbing structures can be suggested. Simulations are so helpful that the optimized data be supplied in designing vehicles in advance.

In sheet metal forming process using press and draw die some defect can be made because of the high pressure of air pocket between draw die and the product. The purpose of this study is to develop a program to decide an optimal combination of air vent hole size and number to prevent those defect on product. The air inside air pocket is considered as ideal gas and the compression and expansion is assumed as isentropic process. The mass flow is computed in two flow condition: unchocked and chocked condition. The present computation obtains required cross-sectional area of air vent hole for not exceeding the user specified pressure such as the pressure for yielding strength of the product or the pressure for unchocked flow. To validate the program the present results are compared with the results of other researchers and commercial CFD code.

최근 미국과 일본을 중심으로 높은 공극과 압축성이라는 장점을 지닌 압축성 섬유여재 여과에 대한 다양한 기술이 개발되면서 이를 이용한 집약적 하 폐수 처리에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 다양한 유입수질의 하수에 대하여 압축성 섬유여재 여과의 적용성을 검토하고자 하며, 해당 유입수에 대한 최적의 운전조건을 도출하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 예비 실험으로서 추적자 시험을 진행하였으며, 이를 통하여 다양한 압축률 및 여과율에서의 여과 양상을 검토하였다. 그 결과 높은 압축률에서 높이에 따라 다른 공극률이 적용되어 이론적인 결과값과의 뚜렷한 차이를 관찰할 수 있었다. 하수처리장의 침사지 유출수를 대상으로 다양한 압축률 조건에서 압축성 섬유여재 여과의 TSS 제거 및 제거 입자크기분포를 살펴본 결과, 압축률 30%가 최적의 운전조건으로서 제거효율 70% 이상을 나타냈으며, 작은 크기의 입자 제거율 증대를 위해 최소 15% 이상의 압축률이 요구되었다. 또한 여과 유출수 농도의 주요 영향인자인 $10{\mu}m$ 이하 입자의 제거 효율을 증대시키기 위해서는 응집과 같은 추가 공정이 필요하다고 판단되었다. 모델링 결과를 통하여 압축률이 증가할수록 여과 초기에 입자 크기에 따른 TSS 제거효율이 두드러지게 나타남을 관찰하였고, 유입수의 입자크기분포에서 가장 큰 비율을 차지하는 $10{\mu}m$ 크기 입자를 대상으로 높이에 따른 모델링 결과 높이 150-300 mm 여재층이 해당 입자 크기에 대하여 가장 활발한 여과 작용을 나타내었다.

본 논문은 기존의 스파크 점화 방식이 아닌 bulk combustion 방식을 도입하여 별도의 점화장치 없이 상용 단기통 디젤기관에 유입되는 흡입공기를 가열 및 제어하여 흡기관에 분사되는 가솔린연료의 압축착화성을 향상시킴으로서 기관작동을 가능하게 하였다. 제동열효율의 최대값은 공기-연료비가 35부근에서 나타나며, 35이상의 영역에서는 급격히 감소하고 흡입공기 가열온도가 올라갈수록 제동열효율은 증가한다. 따라서 공기-연료비를 감소시키면서 흡입공기의 가열온도를 상승시키는 방식이 열효율 측면에서 효과적이라는 것을 알 수 있다.

Glass is one of brittle materials. Generally, brittle material is weak for tensile stress but strong for compression stress. Laser breaking of glass used this brittle characteristics. Laser breaking of glass was simulated to optimize breaking condition by using commercial FEM code MARC which is applicable to thermo-mechanical coupling analysis. Various shapes of heat sources were applied to the analysis and the distance between heating and cooling source were varied for each simulation. The shapes of heat sources were circle, single and double ellipse and the distance was varied from 0mm to 30mm. Moving heat sources were designed on the basis of experimental condition. As a result, double elliptic shape of heat source was the most suitable among them in laser breaking of glass. And it should be useful to determine optimal condition of laser breaking for glass.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of the modified distraction osteogenesis (DO) method with the concept of overdistraction and compression stimulation which have been previously suggested by the authors in 2002 and to explore the optimal distraction-compression ratio and appropriate latency period for the compression force application during consolidation. The experimental specimens were assessed with radiography, histologic findings, and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) after the conventional DO method and the modified DO technique had been applied on rat mandibles. Total 60 rats were used for the study. In experimental group of 54 adult rats, mandibular osteotomies between the first and second molar areas were performed and customized external distractors were applied. The surgeries on 6 rats of control group also were done with same osteotomy technique and DO device application. Final amount of distraction was set-up as 2 mm on both groups. But, in a experimental group of 54 rats, distraction osteogenesis with a compression force were performed with the different distraction-compression ratio and variant latency periods for compression. The three ratio-subgroups were made as distraction 4 mm group with compression 2 mm, distraction 3 mm group with compression 1 mm, and distraction 2.5 mm group with compression 0.5 mm. In addition, The three subgroups with 3, 7, 11 days latency period prior compression were allocated on each ratio-subgroups. Total 9 subgroups consisted of 6 rats on each subgroup. In control group of 6 rats, conventional distraction technique were routinely performed. The rats of control groups were sacrificed on postoperative 3, 6 weeks after 2 mm distraction. The rats in the experimental groups also were sacrificed on the same euthanasia days of control groups to compare the wound healing. Final available specimens were 55 rats except 5 due to osteomyelitis, device dislodgement. Distraction-compression combined group on 6 weeks generally had showed increased bone mineral density than the same period group of conventional distraction technique on the DEXA study. More matured lamellar bone state and extended trabecular pattern in the combined group than those of control group were also observed in the histologic findings on 6 weeks. In the distraction-compression combined groups, the bone density of 2.5 mm distraction subgroups with 0.5 mm compression showed the highest value on the DEXA study among various force ratio groups. In the distraction-compression combined groups, the bone density of 3 day latency period subgroups showed the highest value on the DEXA study among various latency period groups for the compression application. From this study, we could deduce that 1/5 force ratio for the compression versus distraction, 3 day latency period prior compression application would be the most effective condition if modified distraction osteogenesis technique might be applicable. The modified DO method with a compression force may improve the quality of bone regenerate and shorten total treatment period in comparison with conventional DO technique clinically.

A study to investigate the influence of combustion chamber shape, especially piston top face configuration, on the combustion stability is presented with CFD analysis and single cylinder GDI engine test. Initial configuration of the piston bowl was designed with CFD analysis and further parametric studies of the design factors on the piston top face were carried out through the single cylinder GDI engine test. It was found that both the geometry of piston top face and the compression ratio have great influences on the combustion stability. Of interest is that the design factors of the GDI piston to prevent mixture diffusion out of the piston bowl have important roles for the stable combustion at the stratified mixture condition. Also the relationship between spray impingement and flow pattern in a GDI piston bowl should be considered to design an optimal bowl configuration for stable stratified combustion.

Aluminum engine piston is manufactured by thixoforging according to forming variables. It is very important to find effects of forming variables on final products in thixoferging. In order to find the effects, however, many researchers and industrial technicians have depended upon too many types of experiments. In this study, the process parameters which have influences on thixofurging process of aluminum automotive engine piston are found by a statistical method and the correlation equations between the process parameters and quality of product are approximated through the surface response analysis. Forming variables such as initial solid fraction, die temperature, and compression holding time are considered fur manufacturing aluminum engine piston by thixofurging. Hardness and microstructure are inspected so that optimal forming condition is found by the statistical approach.

Desiccant based air conditioning system offers a promising alternative to conventional one using vapour compression refrigeration for energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction. It is a heat driven cycle which has high potential for the use of low grade heat source such as the waste heat from the cogeneration plant or the solar thermal energy. In this study, the cooling performance of a desiccant cooling system incorporating a regenerative evaporative cooler was characterized in various operation conditions through numerical simulation. The cooling capacity and COP were evaluated at various outdoor conditions, regeneration temperatures, and supply flow rates. Based on the performance characteristics, the optimal control scheme was discussed to minimize the cooling cost at part load condition.
