Rolling stock structures such as bogie frame and car body play an important role for the support of vehicle leading. In general, more than 25 years' durability is needed for them. A lot of study has been carried out for the prediction of the fatigue life of the bogie frame and car body in experimental and theoretical domains. One of the new methods is a probabilistic fatigue lift evaluation. The objective of this paper is to estimate the fatigue lift of the bogie frame of an electric car, which was developed by the Korea Railroad Research Institute (KRRI). We used two approaches. In the first approach probabilistic distribution of S-N curve and limit state function of the equivalent stress of the measured stress spectra are used. In the second approach, limit state function is also used. And load spectra measured by strain gauges are approximated by the two-parameter Weibull distribution. Other probabilistic variables are represented by log-normal and normal distributions. Finally, reliability index and structural integrity of the bogie frame are estimated.

소재시험편(素材試驗片)과 맞대기 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)을 대상(對象)으로 피로시험(疲勞試驗)을 행(行)하여 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)-피로수명(疲勞壽命)(S-N)선도(線圖), 소성변형율(塑性變形率)-하중반복회수(荷重反復回數)(${\varepsilon}_p$-N)선도(線圖), 초기균열발생시(初期龜裂發生時)의 소성변형율(塑性變形率)-피로수명(疲勞壽命)(${\varepsilon}_p-N_c$)선도(線圖) 및 균열성장율(龜裂成長率)-응력확대계수변동범위(應力擴大係數變動範圍)(da/dN-${\Delta}K$)선도(線圖)를 그려서 강구조물(鋼構造物) 용접부(鎔接部)에서의 여러가지 피로거동(疲勞擧動)을 검토(檢討)하였다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)에서 얻어진 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 하중반복회수(荷重反復回數) $2{\times}10^6$ cycle에서의 피로강도(疲勞强度)는 용접부(鎔接部)가 소재부(素材部)의 약(約) 60%였으며 강복응력(降伏應力)에 대한 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 비(比)는 소재부(素材部)와 용접부(鎔接部)가 각각(各各) 0.72, 0.65로 나타났다. 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)의 S-N 선도(線圖)는 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 완만(緩慢)한 구간(區間)과 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 큰 구간(區間)으로 분류(分類)되어 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)이 작을 수록 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 커지는 현상(現象)을 보였다. 두 구간(區間)으로 구분(區分)되지 않은 S-N 선도(線圖)에 의한 피로강도(疲勞强度)에 비(比)해 $2{\times}10^6$ cycle에서의 피로강도(疲勞强度)가 약(約) 83%에 해당(該當)하였다. 이는 낮은 응력(應力)에서 용접부(鎔接部) 내부결함(內部缺陷)의 영향(影響)이 크게 작용(作用)하는 때문이 아닌가 생각된다. 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)의 경우(境遇) 소재시험편(素材試驗片)에 비(比)해, 또 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)이 클수록 초기균열발생(初期龜裂發生)이 빠르고 균열발생직전(龜裂發生直前)의 소성변형율(塑性變形率)의 증가(增加)가 급격(急激)한 것을 알 수 있었다. 소재시험편(素材試驗片)에서 ${\varepsilon}_p-N_c$ 관계식(關係式)의 상수(常數) ${\alpha}$값이 0.42 로 Manson, Coffin의 연구결과(硏究結果)와 거의 일치(一致)하였고 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)에서는 이 값이 0.28 로 이들의 연구결과(硏究結果)와 큰 차이(差異)를 나타내었는데, 이는 피로(疲勞)에 의한 용접부(鎔接部) 소성변형(塑性變形)의 급격(急激)한 변화(變化)와 내부결함(內部缺陷)의 영향(影響)이 작용(作用)했기 때문이 아닌가 생각된다. 이와 같은 결과(結果)로 볼 때 기존(旣存)의 강구조물(鋼構造物) 및 향후(向後) 신설(新設)될 강구조물(鋼構造物) 용접부(鎔接部)의 품질(品質) 및 피로(疲勞)에 대한 안전성(安全性)에 적절(適切)한 대책(對策)이 요망(要望)되며, 이 분야(分野)에 관한 더 많은 연구(硏究)가 행(行)해져야 되리라고 사료(思料)된다.

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.

Low cycle fatigue behaviors of SA508-3 low-alloy steel were investigated in room-temperature air, high-temperature air and in light water reactor (LWR) water environments. The fatigue mean curve and design curve for the low-alloy steel are developed based on the fatigue data in room-temperature and high-temperature air. The environmental fatigue model for low-alloy steel is developed by the environmental fatigue correction factor (F_en) methodology based on the fatigue data in LWR water environments with the consideration of effects of strain rate, temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration on the fatigue life.

Ti-50.9at%Ni wires were welded using pulsed YAG laser. The laser welded wires were tested for investigating the shape memo교 effect and the ability of super elasticity. The fatigue properties of the welded wires were investigated using the rotary bending fatigue tester specially designed for wires. Moreover, the effect of defocusing distance during laser welding on the static and fatigue properties was investigated. The shape memory effect and super elasticity of the laser welded wires were approximately identical with that of base metal at the test temperature below 353K. However, the welded wires were broken within elastic limit at the test temperature above 353k. Under the cyclic bending loading conditions, the welded wires could be useful only below the elastic limit, while the base metal had sufficient fatigue life even the stress induced M-phase region. The fatigue strength of the welded wires was about half of that of the base metal. The deterioration of the static and fatigue properties in the welded wires was proven to be from the large difference of the transformation behavior between the base metal and welded part that is caused by vaporization of Ni-content at the welded part during the welding process. The defocusing distance below 3mm acted more largely on lowering the strength of the welded wires than that of 6mm or 8mm.

In the present study, the residual stresses can have a significant on the life of structural engineering components. Residual stresses are created by the surface treatment such as shot peening or deep rolling. The objective of this experimental investigation is to study the influence of friction and wear characteristics due to residual stress under dry sliding condition. Friction and wear data were obtained with a specially designed tribometer. Test specimens were made of SUP9 (leaf spring material) after they were created residual stress by shot peening treatment. Residual stress profiles were measured at surface by means of the X­ray diffraction. Sliding tests were carried out different contact pressure and same sliding velocity 0.035 m/s (50 rpm). Leaf spring assembly test used to strain gauge sticked on leaf spring specimen in order to measure interleaf friction of leaf spring. Therefore, we were obtained hysteresis curve. As the residual stresses of surfaces increased, coefficient of friction and wear volume are decreased, but the residual stresses of surfaces are high, and consequently wear volume do not decreased. Coefficient of friction obtained from leaf spring assembly test is lower than that obtained from sliding test. From the results, structural engineering components reduce coefficient of friction and resistant wear in order to have residual stresses themselves.

The creep constants which are used to the reference stress equations of creep damage were obtained to type 316LN stainless steel, and their determining methods were described in detail. Typical Kachanov and Rabotnov(K-R) creep damage model was modified into the damage equations with reference stress concepts, and the modified equations were applied practically to type 316LN stainless steel. In order to determine the reference stress value, a series of high-temperature tensile tests and creep tests were accomplished at $550^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$. By using the experimental creep data, the creep constants used in reference stress equations could be obtained to type 316LN stainless steel, and a creep curve on rupture strain was predicted. The reference stress concept on creep damage can be utilized easily as a design tool to predict creep life because the process, which is quantified by the measurement of voids or micro cracks during creep, is omitted.

Magnesium alloys become popular research topic in last decade due to its light weight and relatively high strength-to-weight ratio in the energy aspiration age. Almost all structure materials are supposed to suspend stress. Magnesium is quite sensitive to corrosive environment, and also sensitive to environmental assisted cracking. However, so far we have the limited knowledge about the environmental sensitive cracking of magnesium alloys. The corrosion fatigue (CF) test was conducted. Many factors' effects, like grain size, texture, heat treatment, loading frequency, stress ratio, strain rate, chemical composition of environment, pH value, relative humidity were investigated. The results showed that all these factors had obvious influence on the crack initiation and propagation. Especially the dependence of CF life on pH value and frequency is quite different to the other traditional structural metallic materials. In order to interpret the results, the electrochemistry tests by polarization dynamic curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were conducted with and without stress. The corrosion of magnesium alloys was also studied by in-situ observation in environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). The corrosion rate changed with the wetting time during the initial corrosion process. The pre-charging of hydrogen caused crack initiated at $\beta$ phase, and with the increase of wetting time the crack propagated, implying that hydrogen produced by corrosion reaction participated in the process.
