Pipelines are used by large heavy industries to deliver various types of fluids. Since this is important to maintain the performance of large systems, it is necessary to accurately predict remaining life of the corroded pipeline. However, predicting the remaining life is difficult due to uncertainties in the associated variables, such as geometries, material properties, corrosion rate, etc. In this paper, a statistical method for predicting corrosion remaining life is proposed using Bayesian inference. To accomplish this, pipeline failure probability was calculated using prior information about pipeline failure pressure according to elapsed time, and the given experimental data based on Bayes' rule. The corrosion remaining life was calculated as the elapsed time with 10 % failure probability. Using 10 and 50 samples generated from random variables affecting the corrosion of the pipe, the pipeline failure probability was estimated, after which the estimated remaining useful life was compared with the assumed true remaining useful life.

A series of test was performed by measuring the failure strength and the failure mode of fiber reinforced composite laminates joint containing two holes in Series or Parallel. $[0^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}]_s$ laminate with W/d(Side distance ratio) 4.0 and E/d(Edge distance ratio) 3.0 has the full bearing strength and are preferable in case of the good efficiency in two series hole. Comparisons were made between testing results and predicting values of the FEM model. Good agreements were fecund between them except the case of $E/d=2{\sim}3$. In the case of $G_h{\geq}3.0d$ and $G_v{\geq}3.0d$ since the interaction coefficients between two parallel holes and between two series holes were small, holes can be treated as independent. The Acoustic Emission(AE) and SEM method were utilized to find out the initial defects, damage and the fracture mechanism.

This study investigates the bending stress, shear stress and deformation energy happening at the inner fiber structure when the bending moment is applied to he specimen with flat shape composed of carbon fiber. As CFRP is composed of innumerable fibers with multi-axes, the stress under bending condition can be effectively distributed. Theses stresses is shown to increase again at the starting point as this angle of $60^{\circ}$. Therefore, the condition at the stacking angle of $60^{\circ}$ is seen to become most adequate under the state where the bending stress happens. On the basis of this study result, the damage property by the bending at the plate due to stacking angle was examined through the analytic approach. it is thought that this study can be devoted to the safe design for damage prevention and durabilty improvement. Also, the esthetic sense can be shown as the designed factor of shape with flat plate is grafted onto the convergence technique.

In this paper, a lightweight design of the spar cap of 2MW wind turbine blade was carried out using the ply reduction ratio (PRR) and CFRP with a trade-off study. The spar cap is one of the most critical factor in determining the mechanical performance of the blade. Tsai-Wu and Puck fracture theory were used to determine the fracture. As a result, the CFRP composite material could be lighter in terms of weight by about 30% than GFRP composite material under the same conditions. Based on the analytical results, we derive the optimal value of the laminate thickness of the composite material and present the structural performance improvement and the lightweight design result.

A fracture or breakage of the concrete armor units in the primary cover layer of breakwaters is studied by using the reliability analysis which may be defined as the structural stability. The reliability function can be derived as a function of the angle of rotation that represents the rocking of armor units quantitatively. The relative influences of all of random variables related to the material and geometric properties on the fracture of armor units is analyzed in detail. In addition, the probability of failure for the fracture of individual armor unit can be evaluated as a function of the incident wave height. Finally, Bernoulli random process and the allowable fracture ratio may be introduced together in this paper, by which the probability of failure of a breakwater due to the fracture of armer units can be obtained straightforwardly. It is found that the probability of failure of a breakwater due to the fracture of armor units may be varied with the several allowable fracture ratios. Therefore, it should be necessary to consider the structural stability as well as the hydraulic stability for the design of breakwaters with multi-leg slender concrete armor units of large size under wave action in deep water.

In this paper, an integrated probabilistic strength analysis was conducted to predict the reliability of a composite pressure vessel under inner pressure loading condition. As a probabilistic strength analysis, the probabilistic progressive failure model consisting of progressive failure model and Monte Carlo simulation was incorporated with a commercial FEA code, ABAQUS Standard, to perform the probabilistic failure analysis of composite structure which has a complex shape and boundary conditions. As design random variables, the laminar strengths of each direction were considered. Finally, from probabilistic strength analysis, the scattering of burst pressure could be explained and the reliability of composite pressure vessel could be obtained for each component. In case of composite structures in mass production, the effects of uncertainties in material and manufacturing on the performance of composite structures would apparently become larger. So, the probabilistic strength analysis is essential for the structural design of composite structures in mass production.

항만을 새로 건설할 때에는 여러 가지 고려해야 할 중요한 사항이 있다. 이 가운데 항내정온도는 가장 기본적이며 필수적으로 고려해야 할 사항이다. 항의 입구에서 전파되어 오는 입사파로 인해 발생하는 항만 내부의 동요가 너무 크면 하역 작업이 어려워지고 정박되어 있는 선박이 파손될 우려가 있다. 따라서, 항내의 동요에 대하여 가능한 한 정확하게 예측하여 항내 동요가 가장 적은 즉 항내측이 가장 정온한 항만의 형상을 선택해야 한다. (중략)

최근 철도 차량은 안전성, 정시성, 대량 수송성이 우수하여 수송수요가 증가하고 있으며, 열차운행 횟수의 증가와 차량의 고속화로 운행조건이 가혹해짐에 따라 이에 대한 절대적인 안전성과 높은 신뢰성이 요구되고 있다. 철도차량과 같이 반복하중이 연속적으로 작용하는 구조물의 설계에 있어서는 구조물의 사용 환경이나 재료의 피로특성을 최우선의 고려사항으로 간주해야 한다. 실제로 철도차량의 대차 프레임은 맞대기 용접으로 제작되어 있으며, 용접부에서 파손이 발생하고 있다.(중략)

벨로우즈는 형상자체가 가지는 유연성으로 인하여 배관시스템에서 발생하는 변형을 흡수하여 시스템의 파손을 방지하기 위해 주로 사용한다. 특히 자동차, 항공기, 선박의 파이프 배관시스템 설계시 열, 고압에 의한 변형 방지, 배기계의 진동 흡수 등을 위해 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 또한 벨로우즈는 파이프라인에는 모든 경우에 사용이 가능하고, 설치와 유지보수가 간단하다는 이점이 있다.(중략)

해상에 시설된 가두리 그물의 경우 강한 흐름이나 파랑에 의하여 그 형상이 변형되며, 이것은 가두리 그물의 저항이 증가되는 것을 방지하고 양식시설의 손실 또는 파손을 방지해 준다. 그러나 가두리 그물의 변형으로 그 용적이 감소되어 가두리 그물 안에 들어 있는 양식어류의 수를 제약할 뿐만 아니라 급격한 용적의 감소는 어체 손상과 유영 행동 등에 영향을 주어 양식 어류 폐사의 원인이 된다. (중략)
