Considering the shape of a valve plate in design is important for reducing the pulsation phenomenon, which is a negative factor in pump performance. The purpose of this study is to propose an optimized method for a valve-plate V-type notch of a piston pump by modeling and simulation. The method uses $SimulationX^{(R)}$, a commercial hydraulic analysis program, and to provide data for the designing of the notch. The opening areas are determined by performing kinematic analysis of the notch part where the opening area changes rapidly. After applying the result analysis, the main effects on maximum pressure pulsation and maximum backflow according to the notch design factors are analyzed by using the full factorial method of experimental design. The optimized solutions are derived for the notch design variables, based on the analyzed data.

Many papers have shown limit loads of v-notched tension specimens in plane stress by the elastic-plastic finite element method. But they are always higher than the theoretical maximum loads. The present approach tries to find the reasons and formulates correction factor applicable to any notch shape using virtual work principle with triangular elements. The corrected limit loads are in good agreement with theoretical upper bound solutions and they are little influenced by mesh size and specimen length, which make the computing time save.

티타늄 합금은 높은 내부식성, 우수한 피로 수명과 무게비에 비해 높은 강도를 가진다는 우수성으로 인해 항공기 부품과 화학 공업 분야등에 다양하게 사용되고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 Ti-3Al-2.5V 합금 TIG 용접부에 대하여 용접부 인성과 기계적 성질에 영향을 주는 가장 중요한 인자인 용접 입열에 대한 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 이에 입열조건에 대한 용접부에 대한 강도, 충격 인성과 노치 인성을 평가하였으며 적정 입열 조건에서 강도와 인성이 우수한 용접부를 얻을 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper, bidirectional LLC-LC resonant DC-DC converter with notch filters in the primary side of resonant circuits is proposed. Even if resonant capacitors are used on the primary and secondary sides, the proposed converter can operate with the high gain characteristics of the LLC resonant converter without mutual coupling of resonant capacitors, regardless of the direction of power flow. In addition, by applying notch filters, the proposed converter can operate with a wider gain control range and can cope with overload and short circuit. The analysis and operating characteristics of the proposed bidirectional LLC-LC resonant converter are investigated. A 3.3 kW prototyped bidirectional LLC-LC resonant converter connected to 750 V_DC buses is designed and tested to verify the validity and applicability of this proposed converter.

The study investigated effects of residual stresses and Charpy impact energy on brittle fractures of the butt weld between the valve and the piping, and of the valve body in nuclear power plants via a linear elastic fracture mechanics approach in the ASME B&PV Code, Sec.XI and finite element analysis. Weld residual stress in a butt weld between close check valve and piping, and residual stress in the valve due to casting process were assumed to be proportional to yield strength of base metal. Operating stresses in the butt weld and the valve body were calculated using approximate engineering formulae and finite element analysis, respectively. Applied stress intensity factors were calculated by assuming postulated cracks with specific sizes and then by substituting the residual stresses and the operating stresses into engineering formulae presented in the ASME B&PV Code, Sec.III. Plane strain fracture toughness was derived by using a correlation between Charpy V-notch impact energy and fracture toughness. Structural integrity of the weld and the body against brittle fracture was assessed by using the applied stress intensity factors, plane strain fracture toughness and the linear elastic fracture mechanics approach. As a result, it was identified that the structural integrity was maintained with decreasing the residual stress levels and increasing the Charpy V-notch impact energy.

The mobile camera module is a device to be inserted in the digital device for camera feature. The mobile camera module is being shaken by vibrations such as handshake during the exposure time. The clarity is compromised by these vibrations, thus the vibration is considered as an external disturbance. Moreover the use of mobile camera module has been being expanded for automotive vibration should be considered. These external disturbances can cause image blurring, thus optical image stabilization should be applied for image compensation. The compensator is fulfilled mechanically by movable lens group or image sensor that adjusts the optical path to the camera movement. Open loop control is useful for well-defined systems like compliant mechanism. Notch filter and lead compensator are designed and applied to improve the stability and bandwidth. The final level of image compensating is confirmed by image processing with MATLAB and CODE V to verify the better performance.

ZnAl-LDH(layered double hydroxide) modified with oleic acid(SO-ZnAl LDH) was synthesized and added to the flame retardant ABS compounds containing brominated epoxy resin(BER) and antimony trioxide(${Sb_2}{O_3}$). Flame retardant ABS compounds were manufactured by using a twin-screw co-rotating extruder and subsequently injection molded into several specimen for flame retardancy and mechanical properties. The XRD patterns of ABS nanocomposites showed no peaks. The thermal stability of ABS nanocomposites was enhanced by the addition of SO-ZnAl LDH as shown in TGA results. However, these nanocomposites showed no rating in the UL 94 vertical test at 1.6 mm thickness. Only ABS nanocomposites with additional BER more than 1.5 wt% showed UL 94 V0 rating. Notched Izod impact strength, tensile modulus, and elongation at break of flame retardant ABS nanocomposites increased with the proportion of So-ZnAl LDH whereas their melt index decreased.

This study was performed to study the possibility of TMCP's application for side shell plating curved structures through mechanical property testing to understand if the rules and regulations of DNV and the quality standard of IACS after line heating for TMCP steel and normalizing DH32 material steel could be satisfied. Experimental results showed that TMCP's strength was measured to YS = 385 MPa, 18% higher than the required 315 MPa and TS = 525 MPa, complying with the required range of between 440 and 570 MPa. The minus 20 degree impact test for the Charpy V-Notch complied with the required standard and in addition the hardness test satisfied the requirement of 'Hv10 = 130 ~ 320' by reaching an average of T : 216 and L : 275 respectively.

Considering for plants and structure under extreme conditions is required for the successful design, especially temperature and pressure. The ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) for the materials under extreme condition needs to be considered. In this study, A-grade mild steel for the LNG carrier and offshore plant was examined by performing low-temperature Charpy V-notch (CVN) impact tests to investigate DBTT and the fracture toughness. The absorbed energy decreased gradually with the experimental temperature, which showed an upper-shelf energy region, lower shelf energy region, and transition temperature indicating DBTT. In addition, the fracture surface morphologies of the mild steels indicated ductile fractures at the upper-shelf energy level, with wide and large-sized dimples, whereas a brittle fracture surface, where was observed at the lower-shelf energy level, with both large and small cleavage facets. Based on the experimental results, ductile brittle transition temperature was estimated in about $-60^{\circ}C$.

This paper describes an experimental study to examine collapse causes of the lifting cable due to brittle failure of an fitting anchor under the lifting works. Also, in this study an collapse mechanism that was obtained from stress analysis was compared with an actual collapse procedure. Fractographical analysis as well as chemical component test, tension test and Charpy V-Notch impact test for the fractured steel members were carried out. And then, its results were compared with that of normal steel members. Circumferential surface flaws were developed at internal facets of the fitting anchor before tensile stress occurred. Hence, a higher stress than nominal stress was occurred at flaws by stress concentration at the crack tip. Also, stress intensity factor of members increased by crack size of the potential flaws. Because the stress intensity factor at the crack tip was greater than critical values(fracture toughness), brittle fracture occurred under the lifting works. It is judged that the main collapse of the lifting cable is due to brittle fracture of the fitting anchor.
