In this study, for the evaluation of the static and fatigue joining strength of the joint, the geometry of the cross-tension specimen was adopted. The specimens were produced with optimal joining force and fatigue life of the clinch joint specimens was evaluated. The material selected for use in this study was cold rolled mild steel (SPCC) with a thickness of 0.8 mm. The maximum tensile load was 708 N for the specimen with single point. The fatigue endurance limit (=42.6 N) per point approached to 6% of the maximum tensile strength at a load ratio of 0.1, suggesting that the joints are vulnerable to cross-tension loading during fatigue. Compared to equivalent stress and maximum principal stress, the SWT fatigue parameter and equivalent strain can properly predict the current experimental fatigue life. The SWT parameter can be expressed as $SWT=2497.5N^{-0.552)_f$.

Evaluation of rolling contact fatigue damage as well as material development for roll of rolling mill is being studied until quite recently. In this paper, a focus has been imposed on evaluating the rolling contact fatigue damage. In order for this, the accumulating process of rolling contact damage using the ferritic, pearlitic and bainitic DCI has been analyzed by X-ray diffraction technique. The main finds are; 1) The graphite in DCI is considered to be a cause of interfering in the redistribution of stress. Eventually, it results in the branching of crack. 2) The evaluation of rolling contact fatigue damage can be estimated in terms of the change of residual stress and/or a half-value breadth on surface during rolling contact.

Evaluation of fatigue strength on the spot welded part is very important for strength design of spot welded steel structures. In this paper, we could get the life cycle of the spot welded part using the lethargy coefficient obtained through the quasi-static tensile shear test for the specimen welded by current 10kA. The reliability evaluation of the life cycle is completed by comparing the life cycle calculated under the constant loading rate with the life cycle obtained by dynamic fatigue test. And then the result calculated by the lethargy coefficient is verified through the lift cycle calculated using the dynamic final tensile stress formula under the increased loading speed. This way can make save the time and cost in processing of predicting the life cycle of a structure.

fatigue life and nondestructive evaluation were examined experimentally using surface crack specimen and compact tension specimen of 5083 aluminium alloy. Acoustic emission signals emanated during failure of aluminum alloys has been the subject of numerous investigations. Possible sources of AE during deformation have been suggested as the dislocations, fracture of brittle particles and debonding of these particles from the alloy matrix. Fatigue life and penetration behavior of long surface crack can be evaluated quantitatively using K values proposed by authors. The influence of stress ratio on the frequency characteristics of AE signals were investigated.

This study was carried out to evaluate structural stability of the suspended plastic pedal used in vehicles and to predict its fatigue life with the results obtained from finite element analysis. And also shape optimization was performed to reduce its weight. Structural analysis of the suspended plastic pedal was based on the evaluation tests such as static test, stiffness test, and fatigue test in the actual field, which were frequently carried out in the companies manufacturing plastic pedals. The evaluation for the plastic pedal was carried out by structural and fatigue analyses using a commercial FEA program and according to it, maximum stress and strain and fatigue life of the pedal satisfied all the requirements in the evaluation tests. The results of structural analysis of the suspended plastic pedal were used in the fatigue analysis. Fatigue test was performed to verify validity of the theoretical fatigue life of the plastic pedal. And the life by theoretical calculation was in good agreement with that by the experiment. Object function for optimizing shape of the plastic pedal is its volume, and total volume of the plastic pedal was reduced to about 11.7% through shape optimization.

본 논문은 국내에서 개발중인 모노레일 대차 프레임에 대해 구조 안전성 및 피로강도를 평가하였다. 현재 모노레일 대차 프레임에 대한 평가기준은 없는 실정이며, 이에 구조 안전성 및 피로강도 평가는 유럽규격인 UIC 615-4 기준을 적용하여 수행하였다. 이때, 설계된 대차 프레임에 대해 각 하중조건에서의 변위 및 Von-Mises 응력 결과를 통해 구조 안전성을 평가하였다. 그리고 피로강도는 UIC 615-4 기준의 규정에 따라 조합 주 운용하중조건에 의해 평가되고, 일괄처리 기능을 갖는 winLIFE v3.1을 이용한 피로해석 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 설계된 대차 프레임은 구조적 안전성 및 피로강도를 만족하였으며, 일괄처리 기능을 갖는 피로해석은 조합하중을 이용한 기존 피로해석보다 더 효율적임을 확인하였다.

공용 중 강교량의 피로 평가에 활용할 수 있는 현장계측 데이터에는 대표적으로 변형률 계측과 Brigde Weight-In-motion (BWIM)이 있다. AASHTO The Manual For Bridge Evaluation에 따라, 대상 교량에서 계측된 데이터로부터 피로 상세에 가해지는 유효응력범위 및 반복응력 횟수를 추정할 수 있다. 추정된 유효응력범위와 반복응력 횟수를 통해 피로 손상 누적에 의한 신뢰도분석을 수행할 수 있다. 하지만 현장계측 데이터로부터 유효응력범위 및 응력범위 반복횟수를 추정하는 절차가 평가규정에 구체적으로 제시되어 있지 않고, 계측 데이터의 종류 또는 처리방법에 따른 피로 평가결과의 차이를 정량적으로 비교한 연구는 아직 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 공용 중 교량에서 동시에 계측한 변형률계 및 BWIM 데이터를 활용하여 피로 신뢰도평가를 수행하여, 활용되는 현장계측 데이터의 종류에 따른 평가결과의 차이에 대해 정량적으로 검토하였다. 이때, BWIM 데이터를 활용한 피로 신뢰도평가 시 구조해석모델의 정밀성이 평가결과에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해 평가 대상 교량의 뼈대요소 해석모델과 Shell-Solid 해석모델을 구축하였다. 또한, BWIM 데이터로부터 유효응력범위와 반복응력 횟수를 추정하기 위한 두 종류의 데이터 처리 방법을 정의하였으며, 이로 인한 피로 신뢰도 차이 역시 검토하였다.

A fatigue test was used to evaluate the fatigue life of an actual structure. The loaded state and the constraint condition of an actual structure must be same as the specimen in order to apply the test results to an actual structure by the specimen. The loaded state and constraint conditions can't be same as the specimen in the actual structure which is complicated. In order to reduce these differences, an actual structure test with a lot of frequencies is need to get a fatigue life curve. Therefore, ten sets of accelerated test units which attached unbalanced mass were composed in this study. Acceleration history about the vibration of an actual structure was acquired. Rainflow counting was used on acceleration history, and the life curve return formula was assumed. The return formula that damage satisfied `1' was acquired in a feedback process by the Miner's rule, which was the linear cumulative damage theory. A conservative fatigue life curve was determined with a return formula to have been presumed by each set. The fatigue life of regular rpm condition was calculated by these conservative fatigue life curves.

The failure probability of wheel beyond 10$\^$7/ cycles is achieved by the strengths-stress interference model for the evaluation of fatigue strength and reliability in the wheel, From plane bending fatigue test results, the fatigue life (N$\_$f/) for the smooth and 200㎛ holed specimens can be represented as $\sigma$$\_$a/ = 1326N$\_$f/$\^$-0.10/ and $\sigma$$\_$a/ = 2894N$\_$f/$\^$-0.18/. Respectively, fatigue strength of the wheel at beyond 10$\^$7/cycles was about 332 MPa. And, the fatigue strength for the specimen with a micro hole (d=200㎛) which simulated an inclusion on the wheel surface was about 235 MPa. Thus, a micro hole (d=200㎛) caused about 30% reduction of fatigue strength of the specimen. The failure probabilities for the smooth and micro-holed specimens, derived from the strength-stress interference model, are 0.0148% and 13.05%, respectively. The current finding suggests that at least 200 ㎛ sized inclusion, which might be produced during manufacturing process, will cause a critical effect on integrity of the railway vehicle.
