In the field of design of mechanical structure and expectation of life time, characteristic of fatigue limit comes out to he the most important problem. In this paper, in order to get fatigue limit, (I) investigate the aspects of economy, time and confidence comparing two methods: the method by fracture probability introducing statistical conception and the staircase method. And (II) examine the experience approaching fatigue limit and coaxing effect. The value of fatigue limit by staircase method in very effective in view of practical use, and coaxing comes out by the same material effect as restraining crack progress, not as strengthening the tip of crack alone.

This study described computer aided die design system for cold forging of non-axisymmetric parts such as gears and splines. To design the cold forging die, an integrated approach based on a rule-base system and commercial F. E. code were adopted. This system is implemented on the personal computer and its environment is a commercial CAD package named as Auto CAD. The system includes four modules. In the initial data input module, variables which are necessary to design of die are inputted by user and die material are selected from the database according to the variables. In the analysis and redesign module, stress distribution acting on the designed die is analyzed by commercial FEM code NISA II with elastic mode. If die failure predicted, the designed die would modified in four ways to prevent die failure in both states of stress free and pressurizing. The developed system provides useful date and powerful capabilities for die design of non-axisymmetric parts.

Response time of actuator in a hydraulic system may be important and necessary to avoid failures and to improve the efficiency of operation. Flow restricting devices can result in a decrease in the peak pressure, but may change the response time. The response time has an important effect on both operator and operator perceived smoothness. The response time should correspond to how fast a system responds to a given disturbance at the system boundary, Occasionally the appropriate response time is not easily determined. This study is on the characteristics of response time in the hydraulic system.

In this study, estimate of Mechanical Properties depending on Injected direction in Polymer for Automobile Application. The used materials is polyamid(nylon6), polypropylene(PP) of a simple component and its mixed, reinforced glass fiber(15%) in polyamid. One side direction of a simple component is highest strength and the two sides direction of multicomponent appear lowest strength. This is caused by effects of weldline, imperfect fusion and impregnation of multicomponent. To improve mechanical properties, it is necessary to minimize of weldline, compatibility, perfect fusion and impregnation in multicomponent polymer.

This paper proposes an efficient method for improving the performance of polynomial adaline using the dimension reduction of independent variables. The adaptive principal component analysis is applied for reducing the dimension by extracting efficiently the features of the given independent variables. It can be solved the problems due to high dimensional input data in the polynomial adaline that the principal component analysis converts input data into set of statistically independent features. The proposed polynomial adaline has been applied to classify the patterns. The simulation results shows that the proposed polynomial adaline has better performances of the classification for test patterns, in comparison with those using the conventional polynomial adaline. Also, it is affected less by the scope of the smoothing factor.

In this study, an exact solution of governing differential equation for the bending problem of partially loaded orthotropic rectangular plates is presented and also its computer program is developed. The method requires that two opposite edges be clamped or simply supported, or one edge clamped and the other simply supported. Any combination of boundary conditions could exist along the other edges. The plate could he subjected to uniform, partially uniform, and line loads. The solution for the deflection of rectangular plate is expressed as a Levy type single Fourier series and the loads arc expressed as a corresponding series. The advantage of the solution is that it overcomes the limitations of the previous Navier's and Levy's methods (limitation of boundary condition and loading conditions of plate), it is easy to program on a computer and it becomes fast to solve the bending problem with computer program. Calculations are presented for isotropic and orthotropic plates with different loading and boundary conditions. Comparisons are made for the isotropic plate with various boundary conditions between the result of this paper and the result of Navier, Levy and Szilard. The deflections were in excellent agreement.

The purpose of this study was to predict the future urban activities effectively and rationally. For the purpose, a simulation model, based on SD, was built by integrating economic activities, land use and traffic of a city and by dividing Daegu Metropolitan City into seven districts and one county. To identify the effect of the development of a new city in the Dalsung County area, the future population and traffic volume of the city were predicted, using the model. The results are summarized as follows. The future population according to the development of a new city in the Dalsung County area was predicted, and the effects before and after the development twenty years later were compared. The future population of the Dalsung County was found to have slightly increased, whereas that of the adjoining Dalsuh Metropolitan District was found to has slightly decreased. For the other districts, there were no changes of the future population. It was found, therefore, that the development of a new city would have no effect on other districts. Then, the traffic volume according to the development of a new city in the Dalsung County area was also predicted. It was found that in the initial stage the traffic volume would increase with the increase in population of Dalsung County. It was predicted that particularly,. the traffic volume for the purpose of business would greatly increase. The traffic volume of Dalsuh Metropolitan District showed a slight decrease, whereas for the other districts, there were no changes of the traffic volume.

This paper intends to investigate such effects through experiments. The contents of the investigation are effects of position of repeated loading and unloading, passing frequency. For the purpose of the investigation an experimental load-deflection system is developed and the system is possible to measure deflection of the wall and earth pressure due to different size of strip loading and cyclic loading. The findings from the experiments are as follows: 1. As repeated loading approaches to the wall, the measured horizontal residual earth pressure agrees well with Rowe's empirical formula, while as the loading is far from the wall the earth pressure consists with Boussinesq's and Spangler's formulas. Also it is found that below 0.6m depth from ground surface the effects of repeated loading can be nearly neglected. 2. From comparison analyses of earth pressure theories and experimental results, a reagression equation is suggested herein, and earth pressure at any depth and maximum earth pressure due to cyclic loading can be estimated from the equation.

In this study, the initial number of bacteria before ozone sterilizing shows 290 per $1m{\ell}$ in RUN 1 and RUN 2 equally, but the removal rate shows more than 50% in RUN 1, and 100% in RUN 2 respectively when ozone injection amount is $0.28mg/{\ell}$. It is regarded as a satisfactory result that E-coli concentration without ozone contact is 890, rapid removal effect of E-coli is observed in $0.28mg/{\ell}$ of ozone, and E-coli is removed perfectly in $0.84mg/{\ell}$ of ozone. It is thought that an excellent efficiency is obtained for vibrio alginolyticus because the initial number of bacteria before ozone contact is positive, but it is altered to negative after ozone contact. CODcr shows the tendency which is somewhat reduced as the ozone injection is increased, but the general effect is appeared not so much, and it is thought that the tendency is caused by the reason that sea water contains much salt which is estimated as a component of CODcr, therefore it is regarded that ozone contact has not an important effect on salinity. It is thought that the frequency of changing salt water in the fish preserve of a sliced raw fish restaurant can be reduced to under the standard because NTU of 7 days after sea water injection is 0.70 in the experiment of turbidity, hut more than 50% of turbidity removal efficiency is appeared at $0.28mg/{\ell}$ of ozone injection, and it shows 70% at $0.84mg/{\ell}$ of ozone injection in RUN 1 and RUN 2 commonly.

The objective of this paper is to clarify the combined effect of heat conduction, air temperature and thermal radiation on the person seated on the floor under operation of floor heating system. Experiments were conducted for summer seasons under 8 kinds of condition: combinations of air temperature $20^{\circ}C$, $22.5^{\circ}C$ and floor temperature $20^{\circ}C$, $22.5^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, $35^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ under still air. Japanese and Koreans were adopted as subjects. To evaluate the effect of conduction operative temperature modified by heat conduction was derived from the human heat balance equation. New weighting coefficients were estimated from the modified operative temperature and modified mean skin temperature. As for thermal sensation the modified operative temperature more significantly correlated to that sensation each heat transfer processes. As the floor temperature is higher, the human conduction heat gain from floor increase and the dry heat from the human body decrease.
