By using an approach developed to determine the torque-tension relationship for bolted joints, frictional properties of several typical bolted joints were studied experimentally. The specific property by bolted joints certify that the most significant influence of materials and bearing surface condition. Experiments on thread friction shows that prevailing torque nuts with distorted threads provide benefit for preventing self-loosening of the nut. Repeated tightening-loosening generally increases frictions in a bolted joint. It was noted that the data scatter of the experimental results of frictions in a belted joint may overshadow the influence of size. speed, and contact positions. The results from the experimental investigation will help to better design bolted joints.

When a threaded fastener is tightened, the torque-tension relationship is highly sensitive to two friction components: thread friction and head friction. In this study, we carried out friction experiments and analyses to determine the optimum clamping torque setting for bolt joints. First, we measured the coefficients of thread friction and head friction under the same running conditions of the bolt clamping process for lubricated and non-lubricated bolts. We also measured axial tension through bolt clamping tests using lubricated and non-lubricated bolts attached to a strain gauge. Finally, we compared the experiment and theoretical results.

Power transmission characteristics and speed ratio-torque load-axial force relationship for a metal V-belt CVT were investigated theoretically and experimentally. In the metal V-belt CVT drive, it was found that the power was transmitted by thrust force and that band tension should be greater than compression force between the metal blocks. The experimental results for the speed ratio-torque load-axial force relationship showed good agreement with those predicted using equations developed from theoretical considerations.

In this paper, a new formula for primary and secondary thrust of metal belt CVT is proposed considering variation of band tension, block compression and active arc for each of the primary and secondary pulleys. For the secondary thrust, effective friction coefficient is introduced considering the effect of flange deflection. Nondimensional primary and secondary thrust of the metal belt CVT by the new formula agree well with the experimental results except for low torque range, $0\;<\;{\lambda}\;<\;0.2$ at speed ration i = 1.0. The new formula can be used in design of the primary and secondary thrusts control system for the metal belt CVT.

Presence of torsional loadings can significantly affect the flow of internal forces and deformation capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) columns. It increases the possibility of brittle shear failure leading to catastrophic collapse of structural members. This necessitates accurate prediction of the torsional behaviour of RC members for their safe design. However, a review of previously published studies indicates that the torsional behaviour of RC members has not been studied in as much depth as the behaviour under flexure and shear in spite of its frequent occurrence in bridge columns. Very few analytical models are available to predict the response of RC members under torsional loads. Softened truss model (STM) developed in the University of Houston is one of them, which is widely used for this purpose. The present study shows that STM prediction is not sufficiently accurate particularly in the post cracking region when compared to test results. An improved analytical model for RC square columns subjected to torsion with and without axial compression is developed. Since concrete is weak in tension, its contribution to torsional capacity of RC members was neglected in the original STM. The present investigation revealed that, disregard to tensile strength of concrete is the main reason behind the discrepancies in the STM predictions. The existing STM is extended in this paper to include the effect of tension stiffening for better prediction of behaviour of square RC columns under torsion. Three different tension stiffening models comprising a linear, a quadratic and an exponential relationship have been considered in this study. The predictions of these models are validated through comparison with test data on local and global behaviour. It was observed that tension stiffening has significant influence on torsional behaviour of square RC members. The exponential and parabolic tension stiffening models were found to yield the most accurate predictions.

By using an experimental approach recently developed to determine the torque-tension relationship for bearing frictional characteristics of several typical bolted joints were studied. The experimental approach allows the direct determination of the bearing friction between the nut and its bearing surface. Detailed friction studies were made on the influences of the size and shape of the hole, the use of a slot in a bolted joint, contact area and position, and other factors such as turning speed, coating, and the use of wax on the bearing surface. The contact area and position of the washer have a marginal effect on the bearing friction. The organic coating on the nuts reduces the bearing friction significantly. Nuts with organic coating over a washer with zinc finish provide the smallest and the most consistent bearing friction. The results from the experimental investigation will be helpful for the better design of bolted joints bearing friction. The results from the experimental investigation Will be helpful for the better design of bolted joints.

본 연구의 목적은 니켈 티타늄 전동파일의 피로 파절에 파일의 단면 형태가 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 6 종의 ProFile (Dentsply), Mtwo (VDW), K3 (SybronEndo), Heroshaper (MicroMega), NRT (Mani), Alpha system (KOMET) 니켈-티타늄 전동 파일(ISO 30 size/.04 taper)을 각 10개씩 실험군으로 배정하고 실험을 진행하였다. 니켈 티타늄 전동파일에 반복적인 장력과 압축력을 재현시킬 수 있는 피로파절 실험기(Denbotix)와 연결된 토크 조절 전동모터(Aseptico)에 각 군의 파일을 연결하여 300rpm 속도로 만곡도가 60도이고 5mm의 반경을 가진 인공 금속 근관 내를 6 mm pecking depth로 작동시켰다. 각 파일의 파절시간을 측정하고 통계 분석하여 유의성을 분석하였으며, 각 군의 파절된 모든 파일의 파절면을 주사전자현미경을 이용한 fractographic analysis를 통해 파절 역학을 규명하였다. 또한 각 군에서 3개의 사용하지 않은 새 파일을 clear resin에 매몰하고tip에서부터 3mm 지점을 횡절단하여 Image-Pro Plus (Imagej 1.34n, NIH) 소프트웨어로 절단면의 단면적을 측정하고 단면적의 크기와 피로 파절과의 상관성도 평가하였다. 실험 결과 NRT와 ProFile이 다른 실험군에 비해서 유의성 있게 높은 피로 파절 저항성을 보였다(P < .05). 또한 파일의 단면적은 피로파절 저항성과 통계학적인 유의성은 보이지 않았다. Fractographic analysis 결과 모든 시편에서 파절면은 ductile fracture와 brittle fracture가 혼재된 양상으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 니켈 티타늄 전동 파일의 단면적의 크기는 피로파절 저항과는 상관성이 적었다.
