Stress tests were conducted in the carbody of the railroad car to check the structural strength of the body of the railroad car. The objective of this study was to evaluate safety of the carbody of a railroad car under the maximal strength. The carbody of rolling stock is a principal structure that supports major equipment of the underframe and the freight. Therefore, the strength evaluation of this structure is important. This study was carried out to analyze the structure of carbody and evaluate safety under maximum vertical load, compressive load, and torsional load. Accordingly, stress tests were conducted on the carbody to measure the stress on each of their parts. Before the load test, a structural-analysis program was used for the stress distribution analysis of the body structure.

For the slender and flexible cable supported bridges, identification of all the flutter derivatives for the vertical, lateral and torsional motions is essential for its stability investigation. In all, eighteen flutter derivatives may have to be considered, the identification of which using a three degree-of-freedom elastic suspension system has been a challenging task. In this paper, a system identification technique, known as covariance-driven stochastic subspace identification (COV-SSI) technique, has been utilized to extract the flutter derivatives for a typical bridge deck. This method identifies the stochastic state-space model from the covariances of the output-only (stochastic) data. All the eighteen flutter derivatives have been simultaneously extracted from the output response data obtained from wind tunnel test on a 3-DOF elastically suspended bridge deck section-model. Simplicity in model suspension and measurements of only output responses are additional motivating factors for adopting COV-SSI technique. The identified discrete values of flutter derivatives have been approximated by rational functions.

This paper describes a method for developing a multi-degree-of freedom aero-elasto-plastic model of a base-isolated mid-rise building. The horizontal stiffness of isolators is modeled by several tension springs and the vertical support is performed by air pressure from a compressor. A lead damper and a steel damper are modeled by a U-shaped lead line and an aluminum line. With this model, the frequency ratio of torsional vibration to sway vibration, and plastic displacements of isolation materials can be changed easily when needed. The results of isolation material tests and free vibration tests show that this model provides the object performance. The peak displacement factors are about 4.5 regardless of wind speed in wind tunnel tests, but their gust response factor decreases with increment of wind speed.

Medium and high speed marine diesel engines have been widely used as prime mover in small car ferries and fishing vessels with reduction gear. These propulsion shafting system should be installed and matched the elastic coupling between engine and reduction gear to isolate the vibratory torque. In this paper, the elastic dynamic characteristics of coupling with rubber type circular segments is confirmed by the theoretical analysis using the FEM and the hydraulic exciting test at shop. And its adaptation is investigated in the torsional vibration test in factory shop.

Recently, many high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) bearing wall structures of multiple occupancy have been constructed, which have the irregularities of weak (or soft) story and torsion at the lower stories simultaneously. The study compared the eccentricity of such a building predicted by design codes, EC 8, IBC 2000 and UBC 97, and by the test results through a series of shaking table tests of 1:12 model. Based on the comparison of the predicted eccentricity and the test result, the conclusions are drawn as follow: Accidental torsion due to the uncertainty on the properties of structure can be reasonably predicted by using the dynamic analysis with the center of mass being shifted by 5 percent of the dimension of the building perpendicular to the direction of the excitations than by using equivalent lateral force procedure

Medium and high speed marine diesel engines with reduction gear have been widely used as prime mover in small car ferries and fishing vessels. The elastic coupling should be installed and complemented the propulsion shafting system to isolate the vibratory torque between engine and reduction gear. In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of elastic coupling with rubber type circular segments is confirmed by theoretical analysis using the FEM and the hydraulic excitation test at shop. Further adaptation was investigated with the torsional vibration test at diesel engine factory shop.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the damping behavior of a flexible joint. The slip at a structrual joint is selected at the tips of two identical cantilever beams adjoining each other. Both the direction of normal force and its magnitude varies due to the global deformation of the structure from mode to mode in the friction model. The friction dependent on vibration displacements resultsin the same functional behavior of the hysteretic material damping. Linearized energy loss factors are obtained as functions of both linear and torsional spring stiffness for their groups of symmetric and anti-symmetric modes, respectively. Experimental measurements as made for comparisons with analytical estimations by controlling the magnitude of fastening torque in the fastener, Hi-Lite. Trends on damping levelsmeasured in a very common vibration test method make an excellent agreement on the estimated damping levels.

Excessive vibration magnitude results in serious damage and economic losses in the turbine and generator system. Therefore, it is of importance to evaluate the accurate dynamic characteristics of the system in advance. In this paper, rotordynamic characteristics of both the shrunk-fit disc and welded drum rotors have been investigated to ensure an excellent running behavior of the system in which low-pressure(LP) turbines of a nuclear power plant were retrofitted to improve thermal efficiency and reliability. Analysis shows that the welded drum rotor has good torsional characteristics rather than the shrunk-fit disc rotor. In addition, verification testing of field test was performed to confirm the retrofit. Test results are good agreement with analysis ones.

The following will describe a method of evaluating the SLAP lesion in the recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. We have named it the biceps load test. The biceps load test is performed with the patient in the supine position and the arm to be examined is abducted 90/sup°/, and the forearm is in the supinated position. First, the anterior apprehension test is performed. When the patient become apprehensive, the patient is allowed active flexion of the elbow, while the examiner resists elbow flexion. If the apprehension is relieved or diminished, the test is negative. If aggravated or unchanged, the test is positive. A prospective study was performed, in which 75 patients who were diagnosed as having recurrent unilateral anterior instability of the shoulder underwent the biceps load test and arthroscopic examination. The biceps load test showed negative results in 64 of these patients, of which the superior labral-biceps complex was intact'in 63 cases and only I shoulder revealed a type n SLAP lesion. E]even patients with a positive test were confirmed to have type n SLAP lesions. A positive biceps load test represents an unstable SLAP lesion in a patient with recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. The biceps load test is a reliable test for evaluating the SLAP lesion in the recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder(sensitivity: ,9] .7%, specificity: 100%, positive predictive value: 1.00 and negative predictive value: 0.98). Biceps contraction increases the torsional rigidity ?of the glenohumeral joint and long head of biceps tendan act as internal rotator of the shoulder in the abducted and externally rotated position. These stabilize the shoulder in abduction and external rotation position in the biceps load test.

직접전단시험은 측방변위 구속형의 일면·단순전단시험과 측방변위 비구속형의 비들림 전단시험으로 대별된다. 현재까지도 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 직접전단시험은 시험기 및 시험방법과 결과의 해석 등에 몇 가지의 문제점이 있었으며, 특히 사질토에서는 강도가 과대하게 평가되는 등의 지적이 있었다. 또한 시험기구상의 제약으로부터 전단과정 중 진행성 파괴를 일으키는 점, 공시체내의 전단변형량과 전단응력이 일정하지 않기 때문에 전단변형량을 정의할 수 없는 점 등이 있다. 한편 단순전단시험은 직접전단시험의 장점을 그대로 가지면서, 공시체에 일정한 전단변형을 전달할 수 있기 때문에 전단에 대한 응력-변형량 관계를 얻을 수 있는 이상적인 시험법이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 단순전단시험은 그 구조상, 시험기제작이 어려운 점 등 아직도 실용적인 시험기의 완성에는 도달하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 간이 전단시험방법 및 시험기의 문제점을 개선한 개량형 일면전단 시험기의 제작과 일본 지반공학회 토질시험법의 기준화과정에서 얻은 시험결과를 바탕으로 시험기의 개요와 시험법의 개선, 정압조건의 시험결과에 대해 서술하였다.
