The LCF (low cycle fatigue) behavior and the serration phenomena in the plastically deformed and non-deformed 5052 Al alloy were investigated. The plastic deformation was performed by 1 pass or 4 passes in ECAP (equal channel angular pressing) followed by annealing. Only cyclic hardening continued from the beginning until fracture at all strain amplitudes during LCF in the non-deformed alloy, which was caused by the increase in dislocation density during fatigue. Slight cyclic hardening followed by plateau until fracture was observed during LCF in the ECAPed alloy, which was caused by the slight increase in dislocation density in the beginning and then keeping constant in dislocation density afterward until fracture by forming subgrains in this stage of fatigue. The serrations on the stress-strain curves of this alloy were observed, which indicate that the dynamic strain aging (DSA) is occurring during plastic deformation. The variation in amplitudes of serration was studied by changing the strain rate in tensile or fatigue tests.

Objectives: To determine the combined effect of fatigue cyclic loading and thermocycling (CLTC) on the shear bond strength (SBS) of a resin cement to zirconia surfaces that were previously air-abraded with aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$) particles at different pressures. Materials and Methods: Seventy-two cuboid zirconia specimens were prepared and randomly assigned to 3 groups according to the air-abrasion pressures (1, 2, and 2.8 bar), and each group was further divided into 2 groups depending on aging parameters (n = 12). Panavia F 2.0 was placed on pre-conditioned zirconia surfaces, and SBS testing was performed either after 24 hours or 10,000 fatigue cycles (cyclic loading) and 5,000 thermocycles. Non-contact profilometry was used to measure surface roughness. Failure modes were evaluated under optical and scanning electron microscopy. The data were analyzed using 2-way analysis of variance and ${\chi}^2$ tests (${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: The 2.8 bar group showed significantly higher surface roughness compared to the 1 bar group (p < 0.05). The interaction between pressure and time/cycling was not significant on SBS, and pressure did not have a significant effect either. SBS was significantly higher (p = 0.006) for 24 hours storage compared to CLTC. The 2 bar-CLTC group presented significantly higher percentage of pre-test failure during fatigue compared to the other groups. Mixed-failure mode was more frequent than adhesive failure. Conclusions: CLTC significantly decreased the SBS values regardless of the air-abrasion pressure used.

The skin experiences constant physical stimuli, such as stretching. Exposure to excessive physical stimuli stresses the skin and can accelerate aging. In this study, we applied a method that allowed human fibroblasts and keratinocytes to be perfused with media to form 3D skin equivalents that were then uniaxially 10%-stretched for 12 h per day (at either 0.01 or 0.05 Hz) for up to 7 days to form wrinkled skin-on-a-chip (WSOC). There was more wrinkling seen in skin equivalents under 0.01 Hz uniaxial stretching than there was for non-stretched skin equivalents. At 0.05 Hz, the stratum corneum almost disappeared from the skin equivalents, indicating that stretching was harmful for the epidermis. At both frequencies, the production of collagen and related proteins in the skin equivalents, such as fibronectin 10 and keratin, decreased more than those in the non-stretched equivalents, indicating that the dermis also suffered from the repeated tensile stress. These results suggest that WSOCs can be used to examine skin aging and as an in vitro tool to evaluate the efficacy of anti-wrinkle cosmetics and medicines.

차량에서 스트러트 인슐레이터는 도로노면으로부터 발생하는 소음과 진동을 방지하는 역할을 한다. 대부분의 점탄성 마운트들은 고무로 되어있으며 천연고무가 주성분이다. 이러한 고무 부품들은 초기에는 제 역할을 하지만 오랜 시간 고온과 반복하중에 노출되면 성능저하가 일어난다. 고무성능 변화는 NVH를 떨어뜨리고 승차감을 저하시킨다. 본 연구에서는 차량실험을 통해 스프링 변위를 측정하였고, 재현실험에서 가속도 센서를 이용하여 운행거리와 차량연식에 따른 인슐레이터 고무성능을 가속도 값, 고무 영구 변형량, 경도를 나타내었다.

최근 교량의 노후화에 따른 유지관리 활동이 교통체증, 환경오염, 막대한 비용의 소모로 인하여 어려움을 겪으면서 조립식교량 공법을 이용하는 모듈러 교량 연구가 진행 중이다. 본 연구는 모듈러 교량과 관련된 연구의 일환으로 연결부를 가지는 1방향 모듈러 슬래브를 대상으로 반복하중 재하시 단면2차모멘트의 변화를 분석하고 콘크리트구조기준의 유효단면2차모멘트 식과 비교하였다. 반복하중 재하 실험을 위하여 일체형, 모듈러 실험체 각각 1개씩을 제작하였다. 실험결과, 모듈러 실험체는 일체형 실험체의 비슷한 휨 성능을 가지고 있었으나, 극한 변위는 20% 부족한 모습을 보였다. 반복하중 재하 실험에서는 모듈러 실험체는 일체형 실험체와는 상이한 처짐 거동을 보였고 단면2차모멘트의 변화가 상이하였다. 또한 콘크리트구조기준의 유효단면2차모멘트 계산식은 모듈러 슬래브의 단면2차모멘트를 적절히 반영하지 못하고 있음을 확인하였고, 실험값을 기반으로 하중과 균열모멘트의 비율을 새로운 값인 4.53을 구하였다.

If there is a water flow with a range of temperature inside a pipe, the wanner water tends to float on top of the cooler water because it is lighter, resulting in the upper portion of the pipe being hotter than the lower portion. Under these conditions, such thermal stratification can play an important role in the aging of nuclear power plant piping because of the stress caused by the temperature difference and the cyclic temperature changes. This stress can limit the lifetime of the piping, even leading to penetrating cracks. Investigated in this study is the effect of thermal stratification on the structural integrity of the pressurizer surge line, which is reported to be one of the pipes most severely affected. Finite element models of the surge line are developed using several element types available in a general purpose structural analysis program and stress analyses are performed to determine the response characteristics for the various types of top-to-bottom temperature differentials due to thermal stratification. Fatigue analyses are also performed and an allowable environmental correction factor is suggested.

XLPE 절연 전력케이블의 제조과정에서 발생하는 가교부산물을 제거할 목적으로 14주기노화를 실시한다. 이 과정에서 가교부산물이 제거되는 효과도 있지만 열에 의한 구조적 결함도 생기게 되며, 이들 모두가 뇌충격파괴전압에 영향을 준다. 22.9kV 트리억제형(TR CNCV-W) 케이블에 대하여 14주기노화 전과 후의 파괴전압을 분석하였으며, 전반적으로 노화과정이 파괴전압을 감소시키는 결과를 보였으나 60 $mm^2$ 케이블은 상승효과와 감소효과가 비슷하게 작용하는 것으로 나타났다.

In-service reinforced concrete structures are simultaneously subjected to a combination of multi-deterioration environmental actions and mechanical loads. The combination of two or more deteriorative actions in environments can potentially accelerate the degradation and aging of concrete materials and structures. This paper reviews the coupling and synergistic mechanisms among various deteriorative driving forces (e.g. chloride salts- and carbonation-induced reinforcement corrosion, cyclic freeze-thaw action, alkali-silica reaction, and sulfate attack). In addition, the effects of mechanical loads on detrimental environmental factors are discussed, focusing on the transport properties and damage evolution in concrete. Recommendations for advancing current testing methods and predictive modeling on assessing the long-term durability of concrete with consideration of the coupling effects are provided.

Cyclic voltammetric behavior of symmetric (dimethyl, diheptyl, dioctyl, dibenzyl) and asymmetric (methyloctyl, methyldodecyl, methylbenzyl) viologens was investigated in homogeneous aqueous solution and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar media. In SDS-free 0.1 M NaCl solutions, the reduction potential is less negative as the chain length of alkyl substituent is longer. This is due to the stabilization of the reduced cationic radical and neutral form of viologen by adsorption on electrode surface. The adsorbed species show the "aging-effect". With the exceptions of methyldodecyl viologen and methylbenzyl viologen, the viologens show strong tendency of conproportionation reaction between viologen dications and neutral forms. In cases of methyldodecyl viologen and methylbenzyl viologen, the conproportionation reaction is kinetically disfavored, though it is thermodynamically favorable. SDS micelles dissolve the adsorbed species and the viologens exhibit two reversible redox processes in SDS micellar solutions. The reduction potentials of viologens in SDS micellar solutions depend little on the length of alkyl chain. Benzyl-substituted viologens are more easily reduced than the alkyl substituted viologens, presumably due to electron-withdrawing character of benzyl group.
