The ever-increasing cost of natural sand and the environmental impacts of extracting manufactured sand (quarry sand) calls for exploring the potential to use alternative materials as fine aggregates in concrete. Copper slag and ferrous slag are industrial by products obtained from the smelting process of copper and iron respectively. A large quantity of copper slag and ferrous slag end up being disposed as waste in landfills and this poses a serious threat to the environment. Copper slag and ferrous slag have similar physical and chemical properties as natural sand and also exhibit pozzolanic activity. This paper studies the technical feasibility of industrial by-products such as copper slag and ferrous slag to replace the fine aggregate in concrete by evaluating the workability, strength and durability characteristics of concrete. The test results indicate that the strength properties are not affected by 40% or 100% replacement of quarry sand with iron slag or copper slag. However, 40% replacement of quarry sand with iron slag or copper slag in concrete is recommended considering the durability aspects of concrete.

Air spring system in railway vehicles primarily ensure the air suspension of the vehicle body. The low natural frequency ensures a comfortable ride and an invariably good stiffness. In this paper, the characteristics and durability test was conducted in laboratory by using servo-hydraulic fatigue testing system to reliability evaluation of air spring for electric railway vehicle. The experimental results show that the characteristics and durability of domestic development productions are obtained the good results.

This rafer explains a durability test of a large train car body made of carbon/epoxy composite material. The composite car body with the length of 23m was manufactured as a sandwich structure composed of an aluminum honeycomb core and CF1263 woven fabric carbon/epoxy faces. In order to evaluate durability of the composite car body, it was excited by two 500kN capacity hydraulic actuators installed underneath the body bolster. The natural frequency of the composite car body under full weight condition was found to be 4.33Hz. Based on this result, the excitation frequency and displacement of 5Hz and ${\pm}1.0mm$, respectively, were used as inputs for the durability test. The test was conducted for $2{\times}10^6$ cycles. During the test, the nondestructive tests using X-ray radiography and dye penetration method was performed to determine the presence of the cracks. Upon completion of the test, no cracks were found.

Utilization of demolished-concrete as recycled aggregate has been researched for the purpose of substituing for insufficient natural aggregate, saving resources and protecting environment. There, however, are some problems that qualities of recycled aggregates are not only largely diverse, but also mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete decrease a little in comparison with those of natural aggregate concrete. In this study, the resistance to freezing and thawing of recycled aggregate concrete was highly different due to adhered mortar on recycled aggregate, and durability factor of concrete with NA SRA and DRA was decreased more than that of control concrete. However, durability factor of concrete with AA SRA was larger than that of control concrete.

Utilization of mine waste rocks and tailings in concrete as aggregates will help in sustainable and greener development. The literature shows the potential use of iron ore tailings as a replacement of natural fine aggregates. As natural sand reserves are depleting day by day, there is a need for substitution for sand in concrete. A comprehensive overview of the published literature on the use of iron ore waste and tailings and other industrial waste in concrete is being presented. The effect of various properties such as workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength, durability and microstructure of concrete have been presented in this paper.

This paper studies with structural and vibration analysis to evaluate the structural safety according to the types of steering wheels. This study models are two, three and four spoke types. As the number of spokes increases, the maximum equivalent stress becomes smaller but the maximum total deformation becomes a little higher. The natural frequency at three models are shown from 180 to 230Hz as the maximum deformation. The frequency responses as maximum amplitude displacement are happened at 200Hz, 500Hz and 500Hz respectively. In this study, the steering wheel with three spoke type is shown to become suitable at durability and production.

In this paper, we were performed a structural analysis and durability analysis for an integral frame with an axle according to development of the electric locomotive traction motor. In terms of the structural stability, as a result of the analysis modeling with coupling conditions of beam element and an alternative element of three-dimensional, the maximum von-Mises stress of the locking screw mounting frame were similar as 50MPa and 51MPa. Also A comparison of the natural frequency and the exciting frequency while driving of the electric locomotive No. 8200, the natural frequency is 627.05Hz~856.9Hz while the exciting frequency is not more than most 30Hz or 553Hz, 1110Hz. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the resonance.

This study analyzes flywheel through the analyses of stress, fatigue and vibration. Maximum equivalent stress is 15.271MPa at the mid round shape and maximum deformation is 0.02264mm at the outer teeth. Among the cases of nonuniform fatigue loads, 'SAE bracket history' with the severest change of load becomes most unstable but 'Sample history' becomes most stable. In case of 'Sample history' with the average stress of -$10^4$MPa and the amplitude stress of 1000 to 2900MPa, the possibility of maximum damage becomes 30%. This stress state can be 20 times greater than the damage possibility of 'SAE bracket history' or 'SAE transmission'. The range of natural frequencies becomes 200 to 820Hz and the values of these deformations are not more than 10mm. The structural result of this study can be effectively utilized with the design of flywheel by investigating prevention and durability against its damage.

In this paper, waterproofing improvement of cement mortar is researched by comparing cement mixed with natural inorganic minerals with OPC under the same condition. The result shows that cement mixed with natural inorganic minerals has less permeability and absorption compared to OPC, which can be used as important data for improvements of durability and waterproofing of concrete structures.

Utilization of demolished-concrete as recycled aggregate has been researched for the purpose of substituting for insufficient natural aggregate, saving resources and protecting environment. There, however, are some Problems not only the large difference of dualities in recycled aggregates but also a little deterioration of mechanical properties in recycled aggregate concrete in comparison with that of natural aggregate concrete. In this study, the test results of freez and thaw durability of concrete with demolished-concrete recycled aggregate(DRA) arc as follows. Improvement of crushing process is an important assignment because that adhered mortar on source-concrete recycled aggregate(SRA) and DRA highly affects thc qualifies of recycled aggregate. The compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete was not highly different in comparison with that of control concrete. But the resistance to penetration of Cl in recycled aggregate concrete was shown smaller than that of control concrete because of adhered mortar on recycled aggregate. The resistance to frcezing and thawing of recycled aggregate concrete was highly different due to adhered mortar on recycled aggregate, and durability factor of concrete with NA-SRA and DRA was more decreased than that of control concrete. On the other hand, durability factor of concrete with AA-SRA was larger than that of control concrete. It, therefore, is necessarily required that recycled aggregate including adequate entrained air should be used for satisfying the freez and thaw durability of recycled aggregate concrete.
