In this study, two models due to the configuration of caliper cylinder among the parts of automotive brake system are studied by structural and fatigue analysis. As the maximum equivalent stress at model 2 becomes 1.5 times lower than model 1, model 2 can endure load higher than model 1. In case of fatigue damage analysis on model 1 and 2, model 1 has the damage area more than model 2. Fatigue damage at model 1 happen more than model 2. These study results can be effectively utilized with the design on caliper cylinder by anticipating prevention against its damage and investigating durability.

This study was analyed V-bending in order to analyze the spring-back phenomenon in the roll forming process. The material of forming sheet used in the roll forming process is high tension steel and the product name of sheet material is POSTEN 60. The most important variable is the number of roll passes (3-Pass, 4-Pass, 5-Pass, 6-Pass and 10-Pass) and other roll forming process variables were fixed. To determine the characteristics of the tension and compression, the forming sheet was analyzed by dividing the layer (Upper and Bottom) in the thickness direction from the center line. The results of FEM simulation analysis was derived to von-mises stress equivalent strain, and the spring-back value was calculated according to the final forming shape. The more number of the roll pass, von-mises stress and equivalent strain value of forming sheet were lowed. Also, spring-back values tended to decrease. The results of this study can be utilized for prediction and trend of spring-back value in the roll forming process applied to high tension steel sheet. So, development time and cost of the roll forming process is expected to be reduced.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze affecting ratios of strength safety in carbon fiber layer thickness of a composite fuel tank for FEV vehicles. To investigate affecting ratios by FEM modeling, the equivalent von Mises stress has been computed on the aluminum liner and carbon fiber layers of composite fuel tanks in hoop and helical directions respectively. According to the FEM results, the affecting ratios of an aluminum liner on the equivalent stress are 77.5% in hoop direction, 18.11% in $70^{\circ}C$ winded helical direction and 4.39% in $12^{\circ}C$ winded helical direction. These trends on the strength safety of carbon fiber layers have been shown as those of an aluminum liner even though the layer thickness ratio of $12^{\circ}C$ inclined carbon fiber is very high of 42% compared with that of hoop layer thickness. Thus, the computed results show that the strength safety of a carbon fiber fuel tank is more influenced by the winding angle rather than the fiber thickness of carbon fiber layers.

This paper concentrates on the analysis of deflection of the reinforced concrete flexural members under monotonic loading. Concrete is treated as an orthotropic nonlinear material. The concept of equivalent strain and crack strain are used to establish independent stress-strain relationships in the directions of orthotropy. Steel is modeled as an elstoplastic material, and von Mises failure criterion is applied. The finite element computer program for the nonlinear analysis of the deflection of RC flexural members under monotonic loading is developed. The accuracy and reliability of the numerical procedure is demonstrated by the FEM analysis and experiments of the under reinforced concrete beams over the entire loading range up to failure.

Research about the geometry design of lead pin was carried based on the normal or shear stress of the interface between a lead pin and a PCB in terms of delamination failure. The taguchi method with four design factors of three levels and FEA(Finite element Analysis) are carried under $20^{\circ}$ bending and 50 ${\mu}m$ tension of lead pin. The contact width, d2, between head round and copper pad in PCB is the highest affection factor among design factors by analysis of contribution analysis. Equivalent von Mises stress of 18.7% reduction design is obtained by the parameter design of the taguchi method. Maximum normal stress occurred at contact position between solder outer surface and a Cu pad in PCB. Also, maximum shear stress happened at contact position between solder outer surface and SR layer of PCB. From these calculated results, delamination of the PGA package may be occurred from outer interface of solder to inner interface of solder.

In this study, three treatment options to replace two posterior missing teeth were investigated using three dimensional finite element analysis: two wide(${\phi}5.0mm$) implants(the experimental model I), two standard(${\phi}3.75mm$) implants(the experimental model II), and three standard(${\phi}3.75mm$) implants(the experimental model III). Two kinds of load case were applied ; 1) perpendicular on occlusal surface(axial load), parallel on occlusal surface(lateral load). 2) perpendicular on occlusal surface(3mm lateral to central point). The results obtained from this study were as follows; value of Von-mises stress (equivalent stress) was smallest in the two wide implant among the three experimental models. It was reported that the diameter is the efficient factor than osseointegrated surface area.

A solar power generator is usually installed outdoors and it is exposed to extreme environments such as snow weight and wind loading. The solar tracker structure should be designed to have sufficient stiffness and strength against such loads. In this paper, simulations are performed by varying the parameters such as wind directions, wind speeds and the pose of the solar panel to evaluate the effects of extreme wind on solar tracker. As the effects of wind load, maximum displacement and maximum equivalent stress in the solar tracker are calculated. Finite element stress analysis is carried out by using the pressure distribution that is obtained by prior wind load analysis due to the flow around the solar tracker. The stress analysis of solar tracker to check and/or improve structural robustness provides some useful instructions for structural design or revision of solar tracker.

In this study, the safest model can be selected by the simulation result of structural safety analysis according to the shape of impact bar affected at side door of automobile. The open sectional model of semicircle type has the lowest deformation and stress among 4 kinds of models. As the weight of this model has 30% in comparison with other models, it becomes most economical and stable. As the open sectional model of cap type the highest deformation and stress among 4 kinds of models, it becomes weakest. The closed models with circular and rectangular types has the stress far lower than cap type. The maximum deformation is shown at the center part of impact bar but the maximum stress occurs at the joint part between impact bar and frame.

Restoration of severly damaged teeth after endodontic treatment had been an interest to many dentists, and it is a fact that there have been lots of studies about it. In these days, although we have used Para-Post, pins, threaded steel post, cast gold post and core, and so on, as a method of restoration frequently, it has been in controversy with the influence of them on the teeth and surrounding periodontal tissue. In this study, we assume that the crown of the upper incisor have severly damaged, so, after the root canal therapy, 4 types of restoration had been carried out; 1) coronal-radicular amalgam restoration, 2) after setting up the Para-Post, restore with composite resin core only, 3) after setting up the Para-Post; restore with amalgam core, then cover with the PPM crown 4) after setting up the Para-Post, restore with composite core, then cover with the PPM crown. After restoration, in order to observe the concentration of stress at internal portion of the teeth and the sourrounding periodontal tissue, developing a 2-dimensional finite element model of labiopalatal section, then loading forces from 3 direction - direction of 45 degrees from lingual side near the incisal edge, horizontal direction from labial height of contour, vertical direction at the incisal edge-were applied. The analyzed results were as follows: 1. Stress of the normal central incisor was concentrated on the dentin aroundpulp chamber, labiocervical portion of a tooth and root apex, but with the alveolar bone, in the case of load from the direction of 45 degrees from lingual side near the incisal edge showed remarkable concentration of stress: 2. Coronal-radicular amalgam technique -showed less concentration of stress on the root and surrounding periodontal tissue than the restoration with the Para-Post. 3. The von Mises equivalent stress on the Para-Post showed maximum value at root-core junction rather than both ends and model with PPM restoration with amalgam core showed the least concentration of stress. Only the force from horizontal direction showed large shear stress on internal portion of the root, root apex and alveolar bone. 4. PPM crown with composite core rarely showed the concentration of stress on root and periodontal tissue. 5. As for alveolar bone, remarkable shear stress was concentrated on labial and palatal side by horizontal load.

This paper investigates the mechanical behavior of full-scale offshore fish cages under hydrodynamic loads. To simulate different cases, different materials were used in the fish cage and analyzed under different flow velocities. The cage system is studied in two parts: net cage and floating collar. Analyses were performed with the ANSYS Workbench program, which allows the Finite Element Method (FEM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method to be used together. Firstly, the fish cage was designed, and adjusted for FSI: Fluid (Fluent) analysis. Secondly, mesh structures were created, and hydrodynamic loads acting on the cage elements were calculated. Finally, the hydrodynamic loads were transferred to the mechanical model and applied as a pressure on the geometry. In this study, the equivalent (von Mises) stress, equivalent strain, and total deformation values of cage elements under hydrodynamic loads were investigated. The data obtained from the analyses were presented as figures and tables. As a result, it has been shown that it is appropriate to use all the materials examined for the net cage and the floating collar.
