In this study, the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) of hydrogen production process by using the Thermococcus onnurineus NA1 was conducted and advanced methodology to compensate the weakness of previous FMEA methodology was applied. To bring out more quantitative and precise FMEA result for bio-hydrogen production process, fuzzy logic and potential loss cost estimated from ASPEN Capital Cost Estimator (ACCE) was introduced. Consequently, risk for releasing the flammable gases via internal leakage of steam tube which to control the operating temperature of main reactor was caution status in FMEA result without applying the fuzzification and ACCE. Moreover, probability of the steam tube plugging caused by solid property like medium was still caution status. As to apply the fuzzy logic and potential loss cost estimated from ACCE, a couple of caution status was unexpectedly upgraded to high dangerous status since the potential loss cost of steam tube for main reactor and decrease in product gases are higher than expected.

본 연구에서는 터널 붕괴붕락의 유형 중 국부 암괴하중에 의한 숏크리트 라이닝의 파괴특성을 유한요소 해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 우선, 기존 터널 라이닝 파괴특성을 보다 체계적으로 파악하기 위하여 암반과 숏크리트체 강성비와 부착강도의 특성에 변화를 주어 총 9가지의 조건을 설정하였다. 각 조건에 대한 블록낙하실험(falling block test)환경에서 수치해석을 수행하여 파괴양상을 고찰해 보고 기존의 이론적 파괴 메카니즘과 비교/평가하여 보았다. 결과적으로, 기존 문헌에서 언급된 4가지 파괴모드(점착파괴(adhesive failure), 직접전단파괴(direct shear failure), 휨인장파괴(flexural failure) 및 휨전단파괴(punching shear failure))가 모두 구현되긴 하였으나, 점착파괴는 항상 타 파괴유형과 동반되어 나타나며, 별도의 파괴유형으로 분류하는 것은 부적절하다고 판단되었다. 또한 기존 관련 연구에서는 터널공학의 주요개념인 아칭효과에 대해 고려치 않고 단순보 개념하에서 라이닝의 파괴특성을 고찰하였으며, 굴착에 의해 부가되는 라이닝의 초기 축력을 고려치 않고 있다. 이에 대해 터널특성에 부합된 경계조건들을 고려하여 신규 라이닝 파괴모드를 재 고찰하였으며, 곡률이 있는 터널 라이닝조건에서는 크게 두 가지 파괴유형으로 분류할 수 있는 것으로 파악되었다.

Several risk assessment techniques have been presented and investigated in previous research, focusing mainly on the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA). FMEA can be employed to determine where failures can occur within industrial systems and to assess the impact of such failures. This research proposes a novel methodology for hazard analysis and risk assessments that integrates FMEA with the bow-tie model. The proposed method has been applied and evaluated in a real industrial process, illustrating the effectiveness of the proposed method. Specifically, the bowtie diagram of the critical equipment in the adopted plant in the case study was built. Safety critical barriers are identified and each of these is assigned to industrial process with an individual responsible. The detection rating to the failure mode and the values of risk priority number (RPN) are calculated. The analysis shows the high values of RPN are 500 and 490 in this process. A global corrective actions are suggested to improve the RPN measure. Further managerial insights have been provided.

FMEA(Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) is a failure analysis method for the system to identify the potential failure modes, and their effects and causes to reduce or mitigate the critical effects of the system. FMEA for railway was introduced with reliability of railway system, and this was used for identifying and analysing the possible hazards qualitatively to meet the requirements in early stage of business. In general, the overall failure data of system could be managed from design stage by FMEA, and also the countermeasures to prevent many predicted failures could be established by identification of failure modes and assement of failure effects by FMEA. Using these advantages of FMEA, the effectiveness of reliability improvement could be expected if FMEA is applied continuously in operation stage. It is essential that railway vehicles are maintained with high level of safety and reliability not to happen any failures in operation. This paper is proposed the proper FMEA for maintenance of railway vehicles compared with existing FMEA.

Purpose: To develop a risk metric for failure cause that can help determine the action priority of each failure cause in FMEA considering time sequence of cause- failure- detection. Methods: Assuming a quadratic loss function the unfulfilled mission period, a risk metric is obtained by deriving the failure time distribution. Results: The proposed risk metric has some reasonable properties for evaluating risk accompanied with a failure cause. Conclusion: The study may be applied to determining action priorities among all the failure causes in the FMEA sheet, requiring further studies for general situation of failure process.

Fracture behavior and pipe strength are very important to the integrity of energy plants, ocean structures, and so forth. The pipes of energy plants and ocean structures are subject to local wall thinning, resulting from severe erosion-corrosion damage. Recently, the effects of local wall thinning on fracture strength and fracture behavior of piping systems have been the focus of many studies. In this paper, the elasto-plastic analysis is performed by FE code ANSYS on straight pipes with wall thinning. We evaluated the failure mode, fracture strength and fracture behavior, using FE analysis. Also, the effect of the axial strain on deformations and failure modes was estimated by FE analysis.

In this paper, an analytical model is proposed to predict the shear strenth of RC beams strengthened by FRP. This predictional model is composed of two basic models-the upper bound theorem for shear failure (shear tension or shear compression criteria) and a truss model based on the lower bound theorem for diagonal tension creteria. Also, a simple flexural theory based on USD is used to explain flexural failure. The major cause of destruction of RC beams shear strengthened by FRP does not lie in FRP fracture but in the loss of load capacity incurred by rip-off failure of shear strengthening material. Since interfacial shear stree between base concrete and the FRP is a major variable in rip-off failure mode, it is carefully analyzed to derive the shear strengthening effect of FRP. The ultimate shear strength and failure mode of RC beams, using different strengthening methods, estimated in this predictional model is then compared with the result derived from destruction experiment of RC beams shear strengthened using FRP. To verify the accuracy and consistency of the analysis, the estimated results using the predictional model are compared with various other experimental results and data from previous publications. The result of this comparative analysis showed that the estimates from the predictional model are in consistency with the experimental results. Therefore, the proposed shear strength predictional model is found to predict with relative accuracy the shear strength and failure mode of RC beams shear strengthened by FRP regardless of strengthening method variable.

Since the behavior of structural members subjected to blast load shows different responses, the effect of impulse as well as peak load should be considered in the damage analysis. The threshold on P-I diagram that causes specific damage level divides the diagram into the failure zone and the non-failure zones. In this study, numerical analysis is performed based on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) techniques to generate rational P-I diagram considering material non-linearity and dual failure modes (flexure and direct shear) of RC beams. From the comparison with existing test results it is concluded that proposed numerical method is good to derive failure mode of RC beam under blast load.

일반적으로 커패시터는 빈번한 충 방전으로 시스템의 수명에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 고전압, 대전류의 HVDC 서브모듈용 필름 커패시터의 핵심 고장원인을 분석하여 커패시터의 설계 및 제조공정의 주의사항을 분석한다. 먼저 커패시터의 FMEA 수행을 통해 고장원인, 고장모드, 고장영향에 대해 분석한다. 커패시터의 고장에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 고장원인과 영향을 정량적으로 평가하기 위해 커패시터에 대한 고장나무(Fault-tree)를 제시하고 설계인자와 구동환경의 조건에 따른 고장률을 분석한다. 커패시터 고장의 핵심 원인이 커패시턴스 변화에 있음을 확인하고, 커패시터의 고장률 저감을 위해서 커패시터의 설계와 제조공정 중 온도상승, 코로나 발생, 전극팽창, 절연거리 감소를 최소화할 필요가 있음을 검증한다.
