Recently, it is increasingly reported that the deterioration of concrete structure under marine environments is due to diffusion and penetration of chloride ions. It is very important to estimate the diffusion coefficient of chloride ion in concrete. Estimation methods of chloride diffusivity by concentration difference is time-consuming. Therefore, chloride diffusivity of concrete is mainly conducted by electrically accelerated method, which is accelerating the movement of chloride ion by potential difference. However, there has not been any proper method for field quality control to closely determine the diffusion coefficient of chloride ion through accelerated tests using potential difference. In this paper, the various test methods for determination of chloride diffusion coefficient in concrete were investigated through comparison accelerated tests. From the results of estimated diffusion coefficient of chloride ion, relationship between the ponding test and acceleration test was examined.

The conventional lead acid battery is optimized for cranking performance of engine. Recently electric devices and fuel economy technologies of battery have influenced more deep cycle of dynamic behavior of battery. I also causes to reduce battery life-time. This study proposed that aging battery model is focused for increasing of battery durability. The stress factors of battery aging consist of discharge rate, charging time, full charging time and temperature. This paper considers the electrochemical kinetics, the ionic species conservation, and electrode porosity. For prediction of battery life cycle we consider battery model containing strong impacts, corrosion of positive grid and shedding. Finally, we validated that modeling results were compared with the accelerated thermal measurement data.

In this study, a strain-controlled fatigue test of widely-used 316L stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties was conducted, in order to assess its fatigue life. Low cycle fatigue behaviors were analyzed at room temperature, as a function of the strain amplitude and strain ratio. The material was hardened during the initial few cycles, and then was softened during the long post period, until failure occurred. The fatigue life decreased with increasing strain amplitude. Masing behavior in the hysteresis loop was shown under the low strain amplitude, whereas the high strain amplitude caused non-Masing behavior and reduced the mean stress. Low cycle fatigue life prediction based on the cyclic plastic energy dissipation theory, considering Masing and non-Masing effects, showed a good correlation with the experimental results.

While the hydrogen refueling station is rapidly expanded and installed, the safety inspection of the hydrogen pressure vessel in the station should be very important. Of these, according to ASME, hydrogen embrittlement tests must be performed for hydrogen vessel that store hydrogen above a certain pressure. The main test method for hydrogen embrittlement inspection is to carry out fracture tests and fatigue fracture tests in a high pressure hydrogen atmosphere, which allows the durability limit of the pressure vessel to be measured and the endurable limit to be determined in the hydrogen atmosphere. In detail, the critical crack depth can be calculated by the stress intensity factor(K), and the service life can be determined by da/dN (fatigue growth rate). API579-1/ ASME FFS-1 part 9 exemplifies the calculation method according to the mode of crack-like flaws, but for various shapes such as plates and cylinders, there are about 55 modes according to the shape and location of the crack. Due to the fairly complex formula, it is not easily accessible. In this study, we will show you how to calculate fracture mechanics numerically via Excel and VBA. In addition, this was applied to analyze the effects of the thickness and inner diameter of the pressure vessel on the service life.

There are various method for evaluating the durability life of concrete structures due to salt damage. The best way is to perform a corrosion test for a rebar embedded in concrete specimen was exposure to marine environment. However, this method has the disadvantage that it takes a long period of time. Also, accelerated corrosion test which was complemented complements the time-consuming weakness is limited to apply because it could not reveal a correlation between long-term exposure test. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to derive a correlation coefficient between cycle drying-wetting accelerated corrosion test and long-term exposure test. Corrosion initiation time was measured in four types of concrete samples, i.e., two samples mixed with fly ash(FA) and blast furnace slag(BS), and the other two samples having two water/cement ratio(W/C = 0.6, 0.35) without admixture(OPC 60 and OPC 35). The accelerated corrosion test was carried out by two case, i.e., one is a cyclic drying-wetting method(case 1), and the other is a artificial seawater ponding test method(case 2). Whether corrosion occurs, it was measures using half-cell potential method. The results indicated that case 1 is to accelerated the corrosion of rebar about 24~36% as compared with case 2, then the corrosion of rebar embedded in concrete occurred according to the order of OPC60, FA, BS, OPC35. Correlation coefficient between accelerated corrosion test and long-term exposure test, case 1 is 4.23 to 5.42, and case 2 is 6.54 to 7.82.

절연체의 수명과 직접적인 관련이 있는 전기트리의 개시특성을 연구하는데 있어서, 전기트리의 개시시간이 매우 길기 때문에 실험적으로 절연재료의 수명을 구하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서. 본 논문에서는 Weibull 해석을 이용하여, 일반적으로 사용되는 가속시험법에 의하여 얻어진 전기트리 개시전계를 사용하여 일정전압 인가시에 전기트리 개시시간을 추정하는 방법을 이론적으로 고찰하여 실험에 적용하였다. 또한 기계적 스트레스에 의한 전기트리 개시특성을 평가하기 위하여 기계적 스트레스를 모의한 XLPE 시료에 대하여 이러한 기계적 스트레스가 전기트리 개시전계 및 개시시간 특성에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 기계적 스트레스가 전기트리 개시전계 뿐만 아니라 개시시간을 현저하게 감소시켰으며, XLPE의 장기적인 신뢰성을 보증하기 위해서는 이러한 기계적 스트레스를 완화시키는 것이 매우 중요하다.

The objective of this paper is to introduce the standard of evaluation methods and fatigue test for linear motion rolling bearing. In particular, attention well be given to the list of evaluation and fatigue results in this paper. The life of a linear motion rolling bearing is given by the length of distance covered between the connection parts before the first evidence of fatigue develops in the material of one of the raceways of rolling elements. The main factors that contribute to fatigue failures include: Number of load cycles experienced; Range of stress experienced in each load cycle; Mean stress experienced in each toad cycle; Presence of local stress concentrations.

The residual stresses and. distortions of structures by welding exert negative effect on the safety of railroad structures. This investigation performs a thermal elasto-plastic analysis using finite element techniques to evaluate residual stresses in butted-welded joint. Considering this initial residual stresses, local stress and strain at the critical location (weld toe) during the loading were analyzed by elastic plastic finite element analysis. Fatigue crack initiation life and fatigue crack propagation life of butt-welded specimen were predicted by local strain approach and Neuber's role and Paris law. It is demonstrated that fatigue life estimates by local strain approach closely approximate the experimental results.

자동차 차체부품에 적용되는 플라스틱 소재는 강도와 내마모성, 내충격성의 충분한 물성확보가 필요하며, 이에 플라스틱 소재의 기계적 특성 향상을 위해 유리 섬유가 다량 함유된 복합소재적용이 증가하고 있다. 반면 플라스틱이 고강도화함에 따라 제품 성형을 위한 사출 금형을 손상시키는 사례가 빈번하게 발생하고, 소재의 유동성 저하에 따른 사출 불량이 증가하고 있어 고강성 플라스틱 복합소재에 대응하는 고경도, 고내마모 특성이 부여된 사출 금형의 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 특히 사출 금형에 사용되는 소재는 기존 소재에 비해 우수한 내마모성과 함께 고광택을 유지하는 것이 더욱 중요해졌으며, 이에 따라 유럽, 일본과 국내 연구진에 의해 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서도 일본에서 개발되어 국내에도 소개된 래디칼 질화는 기존 질화법에 표면의 화합물 층만을 제어하는 것으로 다소의 표면 광택 효과는 있으나, 플라스틱 사출에 그대로 적용하기에는 무리가 따르므로 그 용도가 극히 제한적이다. 본 연구에서 적용한 나노 질화기술은 0.1torr 이하의 고진공에서 고밀도의 플라즈마 에너지를 발생시키는 방법으로 화합물층이 없는 나노 크기의 질화층을 소재 표면에 형성시키는 기술로서, 처리 후에도 표면의 색상 및 광택의 변화가 없는 것을 특징으로 한다. 또한 표면 경도 및 피로 특성을 향상시킴으로써 금형의 내구 수명을 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 KP4 금형 소재를 사용하여 플라즈마 이온 질화 시험 조건에 따른 소재의 경도 및 내마모 특성을 파악하고, 미세 조직 분석 및 XRD 분석 등을 통해 내마모 특성 향상에 대한 기본 특성을 평가하였다. 또한 인장시험을 통해 인장강도, 항복강도 및 연신율을 파악하고, 이를 토대로 고주기 피로시험을 실시함으로써 S-N curve를 얻고, 이를 통해 피로 강도 및 피로 수명에 미치는 나노 질화 처리의 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 플라즈마 이온 질화 시험은 질소와 수소 비율($N_2:H_2$), 진공도, Screen bias voltage, Bias voltage를 변화시켰으며, 챔버 온도는 $400^{\circ}C$로 고정하였으며, 처리시간도 3시간으로 고정하였다. 질소와 수소의 비율은 3:1일 때 최고의 내마모 특성을 보였으며, 진공도는 내마모 특성에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다. KP4의 초기 경도값은 약 302 Hv인 반면 최적의 나노 질화처리를 거친 시편에서는 800Hv 이상의 Vickers 경도값을 보였다. SEM 미세조직 분석과 EPMA를 통한 성분 분석을 시행한 결과 표층으로부터 약 $1.5{\mu}m$의 나노질화층을 확인할 수 있었다.
