Purpose : This paper is a comparative analysis results of the fatigue test for dental implants and accelerated life test by using a static type loading device commonly used in Korea and a dynamic type loading device (universal-joint) recommended by FDA. Methods : Fatigue tests of dental implant is based on ISO 14801 and classified into static load test and dynamic load test. The tests were carried out on three test specimens by four load stress steps under each loading device. For analysis on failure mode such as crack, fracture and permanent deformation of test specimens, we used X-ray three-dimensional computed tomography on test specimens before and after the fatigue tests. The design of the accelerated life test was based on the analysis results of the fatigue life data obtained from the dynamic load test and the statistical analysis software (Minitab ver.15) was used to analyze the appropriate life distribution. Results : As a result of the fatigue tests and the accelerated life tests at same acceleration condition under each test method, the fatigue life under the dynamic type loading device (universal-joint) was shorter than when static type loading device was applied. Conclusion : This paper can be used as a reference when the universal-joint type loading device for implants fatigue test is applied as ISO 14801.

This paper has performed static, fatigue and nondestructive test of tilting' bolster frame for Korean tilting train. From the static test, the structural safety was investigated using Goodman diagram. After the static test, the fatigue test were conducted under tilting load conditions. The fatigue test was conducted for $10\times10^6$ cycles. During the fatigue test, the nondestructive tests using magnetic particle and liquid penetrant were performed at $6\times10^6$cycle and $10\times10^6$cycle. From the crack detection tests, it was known that there was no fatigue crack in the tilting bolster.

In this study, the fatigue characteristic of spot weld specimen was studied by using the various specimen. The specimen types were tensile shear specimen welded one spot and two spot, and cross tension. The tensile tests and fatigue tests were executed to know the mechanical properties under static and fatigue load condition. In addition, the relationship was illustrated by finite element method.

In the present study, a series of static load test and fatigue test were carried out to investigate the behavior of the CRCP. The specimens were sized to 25% of real one lane CRCP. The fatigue tests were carried out for the repetitive load as much as 16%, 39%, 40%, 48%, 59% and 78% of the max. static load for the center or corner loading. Compared the field test with laboratory test for FWD, it is an equpment useful to maintance and manage of the concrete pavements.

In this paper, static and fatigue load tests for the specimens, components and carbody were carried out to investigate the strength of welded joints in aluminum rolling stock. Tensile load test results showed that the static strength of welded joint for heat-treated alloys is reduced significantly and fatigue strengths are scattered by the welding imperfections. Component and whole carbody fatigue test results showed agreements with the design fatigue strength standards for specimens of same joint detail. Test results revealed that full penetration welding and strict management of welding procedure are crucial for securing strength of welded joint in aluminum carbody.

This paper has performed fatigue and nondestructive test of bogie frame for Korean tilting train. Before the fatigue test, static tests were carried out. From the test, the structural safety was investigated using Goodman diagram. After the static test, the fatigue test were conducted under tilting load conditions. The fatigue test was conducted for $10{\times}10^6$ cycles. During the fatigue test, the nondestructive tests using magnetic particle and liquid penetrant were performed at $6{\times}10^6$ cycle and $10{\times}10^6$cycle. From the crack detection tests, it was known that there was no fatigue crack in the bogie frame.

In this thesis, a series of loading tests are conducted in order to investigate the fracture safety of GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics) pipes under fatigue load which are widely used in the developed countries becauses of their natural of anticorrosion and lightweight etc. . Fatigue test is performed by changing number of laminates and loading cycles to examine the flexural strains, the ductility and the fatigue strength for two million repeated loading cycles. From the fatigue test results, it was found that the larger the laminates of GFRP pipes is, the larger the stiffness of GFRP pipes under the fatigue load increases. This phenomenon is true until the fatigue failure. According to the S-N curve drawn by the regression analysis on the fatigue test results, the fatigue strength of percent of the static ultimate strength increases by increasing the laminates of GFRP pipes. The fatigue strength with two million repeated leading cycles in GFRP pipes with the laminates of GFRP pipes varing 15, 25, 35 shows about 75%, 80%, 84% on the static ultimate strength, respectively.

The evaluation of joint fatigue strength of light weight materials for an electrical vehicle body has been performed through T-peel joint tests with the design parameters such as joint style, adherend type, adherend thickness, adhesive thickness, and various adhesives. Fatigue strength was evaluated through 5-Hz, tension-tension, load controlled test with the zero stress ratio. It was observed that the fatigue strength of the joint increases with the increase of the adherend thickness. With the increase of the adhesive thickness, however, the fatigue strength of the joint increases insignificantly. An aluminum-FRP adherend combination shows much higher fatigue strength than an aluminum-aluminum adherend combination. The results of fatigue tests were found to be consistent with those of static tests.

Fatigue crack initiated in welded tubular joints due to cyclic loading may produce harmful effect on the integrity of the tubular structures. To study such effect, both fatigue and static tests on nine circular tubular T-joint specimens made of carbon steel materials were carried out. The specimens were subjected to tensile loading in both fatigue and static tests. The load-displacement relation, the crack propagation and the failure mode of the specimens are all analyzed. The deterioration of the static strength of the cracked T-joints is also investigated and evaluated through an area reduction factor. Experimental results indicate that the static strength of a tubular T-joint with a surface crack seems to decrease slightly while a through crack has relatively remarkable effect on the reduction of the static strength. Additionally, experimental results also show that the toughness of the materials and the geometry of the specimens play an important role on the failure process of cracked tubular T-joints.

The stud is one of the most frequently used shear connectors which are important to the steel-concrete composite action. The static and fatigue behavior of stud in the steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) were particularly concerned in this study through the push-out tests and analysis. It was for the purpose of investigating and explaining a tendency proposed by the current existing researches that the SFRC may ameliorate the shear connector's mechanical performance, and thus contributing to the corresponding design practice. There were 20 test specimens in the tests and 8 models in the analysis. According to the test and analysis results, the SFRC had an obvious effect of restraining the concrete damage and improving the stud static performance when the compressive strength of the host concrete was relatively low. As to the fatigue aspect, the steel fibers in concrete also tended to improve the stud fatigue life, and the favorable tensile performance of SFRC may be the main reason. But such effect was found to vary with the fatigue load range. Moreover, the static and fatigue test results were compared with several design codes. Particularly, the fatigue life estimation of Eurocode 4 appeared to be less conservative than that of AASHTO, and to have higher safety redundancy than that of JSCE hybrid structure guideline.
