The leading-cab (high energy absorption area) of rolling stock directly is impacted on the frontal crash unlike other cabs. Thus, leading-cab has a structurally complex shape to solve getting concentrated loads. However, in order to enhance structural performance and to achieve the weight reduction of cab, changing the sizes and adjusting the distance of members do not take an effective result. Therefore, in design phase, to find the material arrangement which helps structural capacity be better should be done. This research applies the topology optimization to concept design of protective shell frame on strategy of crush energy absorption with considering pressure and vertical loads acting on the principal part of leading-cab. In this research, topology optimization method focuses on structural design, and which yields optimal material arrangement under given loads and boundary conditions using density method which has the density of material as design variables. Finally, this research presents optimal material arrangement and structure of protective shell frame on given loads with applying topology optimization.

본 연구에서는 현재 국내 목조건축에서 벽구성 재료로 많이 사용되고 있는 수입 OSB(배향성 스트랜드보드)를 국산 합판으로 대체하기 위해 OSB와 국산 합판의 못 접합부 전단성능을 비교 검토하였다. 주부재(잣나무)와 측면부재(OSB 합판)의 섬유 방향성(평행 직각)에 따른 전단성능은 합판에서 현저하였다. 결과, OSB와 합판 모두 현행 국내 기준인 못 접합부 기준 허용전단내력을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 표면층에 MLH(열대산 활잡목)를 사용하고 7ply 구성한 합판(P-4 type)은 OSB보다 섬유방향에 관계없이 큰 전단성능을 나타냈다. 전반적으로 측면부재로서 합판을 사용할 경우 주부재에 대하여 섬유방향을 직교되도록 구성할 경우, 평행방향 구성보다 큰 전단성능을 발휘할 수 있음이 확인되었다.

Although performance based assessment procedures are mainly developed for reinforced concrete and steel buildings, URM (Unreinforced Masonry) buildings occupy significant portion of buildings in earthquake prone areas of the world as well as in IRAN. Variability of material properties, non-engineered nature of the construction and difficulties in structural analysis of masonry walls make analysis of URM buildings challenging. Despite sophisticated finite element models satisfy the modeling requirements, extensive experimental data for definition of material behavior and high computational resources are needed. Recently, nonlinear equivalent frame models which are developed assigning lumped plastic hinges to isotropic and homogenous equivalent frame elements are used for nonlinear modeling of URM buildings. The equivalent frame models are not novel for the analysis of masonry structures, but the actual potentialities have not yet been completely studied, particularly for non-linear applications. In the present paper an effective tool for the non-linear static analysis of 2D masonry walls is presented. The work presented in this study is about performance assessment of unreinforced brick masonry buildings through nonlinear equivalent frame modeling technique. Reliability of the proposed models is tested with a reversed cyclic experiment conducted on a full scale, two-story URM building at the University of Pavia. The pushover curves were found to provide good agreement with the experimental backbone curves. Furthermore, the results of analysis show that EFM (Equivalent Frame Model) with Dolce RO (rigid offset zone) and shell element have good agreement with finite element software and experimental results.

This paper describes a finite element analysis (FEA) of the body frame of a subsea robot, Crabster200 (CR200). CR200 has six legs for mobility instead of screw type propellers, which distinguishes it from previous underwater robots such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Another distinguishing characteristic is the body frame, which is made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP). This body frame is designed as a rib cage structure in order to disperse the applied external loads and reduce the weight. The frame should be strong enough to support many devices for exploration and operation underwater. For a reasonable FEA, we carried out specimen tests. Using the obtained material properties, we performed a modal analysis and FEA for CR200 with a ready posture. Finally, this paper presents the FEA results for the CFRP body frame and the compares the characteristics of CFRP with conventional material, aluminum.

Rotating bogie frame will be used in the bogie for the Light Rail Train being developed. In development of the bogie, analyzed were the structural strength and fatigue characteristics of the rotating bogie frame. Defined load cases were applied for the analysis. No part of the rotating bogie frame is subjected to stress beyond the fatigue endurance limits of the material used when grinding the weldment of the lower plate link bend. It is concluded that the rotating bogie frame is considered safe in the view of the structural strength.

To ensure that fire induced collapse of a building is prevented it is important to understand the sequence of events that can lead to this event. In this paper, the initiation of collapse mechanisms of generic a multi-storey steel frame subjected to vertical and horizontal travelling fires are analysed computationally by tracking the formation of plastic hinges in the frame and generation of fire induced loads. Both uniform and travelling fires are considered. In total 58 different cases are analysed using finite element software LS-DYNA. For the frame examined with a simple and generic structural arrangement and higher applied fire protection to the columns, the results indicate that collapse mechanisms for singe floor and multiple floor fires can be each split into two main groups. For single floor fires (taking place in the upper floors of the frame (Group S1)), collapse is initiated by the pull-in of external columns when heated beams in end bays go into catenary action. For single floor fires occurring on the lower floors(Group S2), failure is initiated (i.e. ultimate strain of the material is exceeded) after the local beam collapse. Failure in both groups for single floor fires is governed by the generation of high loads due to restrained thermal expansion and the loss of material strength. For multiple floor fires with a low number of fire floors (1 to 3) - Group M1, failure is dominated by the loss of material strength and collapse is mainly initiated by the pull-in of external columns. For the cases with a larger number of fire floors (5 to 10) - Group M2, failure is dominated by thermal expansion and collapse is mainly initiated by swaying of the frame to the side of fire origin. The results show that for the investigated frame initiation of collapse mechanisms are affected by the fire type, the number of fire floors, and the location of the fire floor. The findings of this study could be of use to designers of buildings when developing fire protection strategies for steel framed buildings where the potential for a multifloor fire exists.

A kart is a vehicle without the suspension system and the differential gear. The kart frame as an elastic body plays the role of a spring. By the cornering of a kart, rolling, pitching and twisting motions are induced in the kart frame. Also the slip or noncontact of the wheel and a permanent deformation of the kart frame can be induced. In order to examine closely this phenomenon, measurement on height-displacements with various sensors and tracking system and analysis on the kart frame twisting characteristics with the rolling and pitching angle are needed. According to the measurement result, while driving in a curve at high speed the kart frame is quite twisted. Analysis on the measurement results shows that a kart used primarily in high speed requires a frame with low torsional stiffness and a frame material with high tensile strength and large elongation.

The design of injection molded prlymeric parts has been done empirically, since it requires profound knowledge about the moldability and causal effects on the properties of the parts. This study shows CAE approach for the design of the seat frame of fiber-reinforced composite material in order to realize the concept os rationsl design for the productivity and quality of mold making. The knowledge-based CAE system is constructed by adding the knowledge-basw module for the design evaluation and appropriate CAE programs for mold design analysis in order to provied designers, at the initial design stage, with comprehensive process knowledge for the performance analysis and the design evaluation. A knowledge-based CAE system is a new tool which enables the concurrent design with integrated and balanced design decisions at the initial design stage of injection molding.

We have investigated thermal stability of the mechanical and thermal conductive properties of Cu/STS/Cu 3 layered clad metal lead frame material for a LED device package at different temperatures ranging from RT to $200^{\circ}C$. The fabricated Cu/STS/Cu clad metal has a good thermal stability for the mechanical tensile strength and thermal conductivity of the over 50 $Kg/mm^2$ to the $150^{\circ}C$ and 270 $W/m{\cdot}K$ to the $200^{\circ}C$, respectively. This clad metal lead frame material at a high temperature of $150^{\circ}C$ shows a reinforced mechanical tensile strength by 1.5 times to conventional pure copper lead frame materials and also a comparable thermal conductivity to typical copper alloy lead frame materials.
