Purpose. The aim of this study was to evaluate biaxial flexural strength and hardness of colored monolithic zirconia after dipping in different time intervals of coloring solution. Materials and Methods. Disk shaped specimens were prepared from monolithic zirconia (Eclipse V2.0, AMS, Gimpo, Korea). Four experimental groups were categorized (n = 12) due to coloring time (PU (0s); ST (8s); OV (1 min); PS (preshade)), to evaluate biaxial flexural strength and Vickers hardness. After fracture, X-ray diffraction analysis was performed using fractured specimens. Results were analyzed with one-way ANOVA test. Results. There was no significant difference between groups in the biaxial flexural strength test. However, in the Vickers hardness test, the group with standard dipping time (ST) showed significantly higher value than the group without dipping in coloring liquid (PU)(P=.038). Also, there was no significant difference in the rest of the groups (P>.05). As a result of X-ray diffraction analysis, specific peaks of tetragonal phase were shown and the volume of monoclinic phase fraction was lower than 25%. Conclusion. Although this study has several limitations, coloring liquids had no significant effect on biaxial flexural strength. Vickers hardness was significantly different between the group to which the coloring liquid was applied and the group to which the coloring solution was not applied, but there was no significant difference between the other groups. Also, the flexural strength of monolithic zirconia corresponds to Class 5 of the minimal flexural strength standard according to the use of dental ceramics.

Stern tube bearing is a shaft device playing important roles to reduce the friction of axial rotation and to support the weight of shaft. However, because there is no domestic producer of stern tube bering, imported stern tube bearings have many practical problems including prices, delivery and after services. This is why stern tube bearing should be localization. For the purpose of development of polyurethane resin for stern tube bearings, the effect of additives on the hardness, tensile strength and elongation of the polyurethane resin were systematically investigated. For the preliminary researches, depending on the type of curing agent, MOCA type and non-MOCA type polyurethanes were synthesized. Preliminary researches concluded that MOCA type polyurethane resin has more excellent mechanical properties than non-MPCA type for stern tube bearings that Tensile strength and Hardness of non-MOCA type investigated 23 D, 4.3 Mpa. Therefore, MOCA type polyurethane was adapted as base resin of this research. Silica, calcium carbonate and graphite were selected as additives for the enhancement of mechanical properties of polyurethane resin. Effect of the type and the dosage of these additives on the hardness, tensile strength, elongation of the polyurethane resin were experimentally examined. However, addition of calcium carbonate and graphite showed only minor effect on the hardness of the resin. Polyurethane resin with silica showed relatively excellent hardness, tensile strength and improved elongation.

Fatigue strength of the spot welded lap joint is considerably influenced by corrosive environments. Particularly, the chloride and the sulfide are most injurious to strength of the spot welded lap joint. Therefore, there is a need to evaluate its effect to corrosion fatigue strength for safe life design of spot welded structures. In order to evaluate their corrosion fatigue strength, corrosion fatigue tests on the spot welded lap joints of the uncoated and the coated high strength steel sheets were conducted in air and in 10% NaCl solution. Corrosion fatigue strength of the uncoated specimens were entirely lower than the coated one in NaCl solution, but those of the coated specimens in NaCl solution were lower than in air. And stress distribution in single spon welded lap joint subjected to tension-shear load was investigated by the finite element method. Using these results, we tried to evaluate corrosion fatgue strength of the various spot welded lap joints with maximum stress $\sigma_{max}$ at edge on loading side of the spot welded lap joint. We could find that corrosion fatigue strength could be quantitatively and systematically rearranged by $\sigma_{max}$.

This paper suggests a way to improve the strength of the driveshaft, which is a vulnerable part of the drive axle system, for a 3.5-ton commercial vehicle. The driveshaft is composed of a universal joint with a spider and yoke, yoke shaft, etc. The driveshaft is developed by choosing design parameters for the spider and yoke such as the diameter and distance through the structural analysis of the driveshaft's components. Some driveshaft design cases have been made and analyzed with ANSYS; the strength of the driveshaft parts are validated from these results to propose an optimal design case. Finally, we suggest a driveshaft system that satisfies the working conditions for a 3.5-ton commercial vehicle.

The purpose of this study is to examine the change of full width half maximum(FWHM) and residual stress during fatigue process in S45C Steel, by X-ray diffraction. For S45C Steel, the relationship between the change in fatigue damage of the specimen and the FWHM, and residual stress of X-ray diffraction profiles during the fatigue processes has been investigated. The FWHM decreases in the early period of fatigue cycle. The change of FWHM is associated with cyclic work hardening. The change of the FWHM is not significant in $10{\sim}20%$ of ratio of fatigue life. The residual stress is changed with fatigue cycle increasing during the fatigue pro process.

This paper introduces a modified Karagozian & Case concrete model (K&C model) for the numerical analysis of a steel-fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) structure subjected to projectile impact. The original K&C model was calibrated to consider the effects of steel fibers accurately by modifying the strength surfaces and input parameters. Single element tests were then conducted and compared with uniaxial and triaxial compressive data to verify the modified model. With the application of a dynamic increase factor, the finite element model of the SFRC structure subjected to projectile impact was constructed. Thereafter, the applicability of the modified material model was examined by comparisons with the experimental results.

An improved numerical model for non-linear analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs subjected to blast loading is proposed. This approach considers a strain rate dependent orthotropic constitutive model that directly determines the stress state using the stress-strain relation acquired from the data obtained using the biaxial strength envelope. Moreover, the bond-slip between concrete and reinforcing steel is gradually enlarged after the occurrence of cracks and is concentrated in the plastic hinge region. The bond-slip model is introduced to consider the crack direction of the concrete under a biaxial stress state. Correlation studies between the numerical analysis and the experimental results were performed to evaluate the analytical model. The results show that the proposed model can effectively be used in dynamic analyses of reinforced concrete slab members subjected to explosive loading. Moreover, it was determined that it is important to consider biaxial behavior in the material model and the bond-slip effect.

We could say that the concrete filled steel tube structure is superior in the vlew of various structure properties as to promote improvement of structural capacity to dtmonstrate heterogeneous material properties interdependently. The compressive strength is increased by putting to tri axial stress because lateral expansion of concrete 1s confined by the steel tube, when concrete conflned by steel tube fall under centric axial load. Also, it have an advantage that decreasr of load carrying capacity 1s small, not occuring section deficiency due to protect falling piienornonon by co~nprrssion fallurc of concrete. So this study investigated for structural behaviors yroprrtiex of concwir. confined by steel tube throughout a series of experlmerit with kcy parxncter, such as diameter-to-thickness(D / t) ratio, strength of concrete as a study on properties of structural behaviors of confined concrete confined by circular steel tube( tri axial stress). Frorn the expcrment results, the obtained results, are surnrnarised as foliow. (1) The restraint effect of concrete by steel tube was presented significantly as the D /t ratio of steel tube and the strength of filled concrete decrease, and the confined concrete by circular steel tube was increased respectively twice as much as 4-7 in deformation capacity at the ultimate strength ,compared with those of non-confined concrete, so expected to increase flexible effect of concrete. (2) The emprical formula to predict the ultimate capacity of confined concrete by steel tube and concrete filled steel tube column using restraint coefficient of concrete were proposed.

The tensile and dielctric strength of the epoxied resin with bi-directional woven glass fibers with a laminate of two layers(G-10) are studied, and the test parameter is the angle between fiber orientation and the tensile axis. The obtained results may be summaried as follows: 1) when the angle between fiber orientation and tensile axis was varied from 0$^{\circ}$ to 45$^{\circ}$ the yield and fracture stresses have a tendency to decrease with increase in the angle. Especially, the decrease rates in the yield and fracture stresses are changed remarkably in the range of 0$^{\circ}$ to 15$^{\circ}$. 2) The fracture strain has showed the maximum value when the angle between fiber orientation and tensile axis is 45$^{\circ}$, and showed the rapid rate of change from 15$^{\circ}$ to 45$^{\circ}$. 3) For the sample with same angle between fiber orientation and tensile axis the maximum dielectric strength under compressive stress is decreased with increase in tensile stress, when the compressive stress is increased as a parameter of tensile stress. 4) When the angle between fiber orientation and tensile axis is 45$^{\circ}$, the dielectric strength showed the worst value, as the mechanical strength did.

In the shear failure mechanism of a beam, beam and arch actions always exist simultaneously. According to the shear span to depth ratio, the proportion between these two actions is varied and the contribution of these actions to shear capacity is changed. Moreover, the current codes provide recommendations based on experimental results of normal strength concrete, so the application range of concrete strength must be extended. Based on this mechanism and new requirement, a simplified analytical equation for shear capacity prediction of reinforced high strength concrete beams without stirrups is proposed. To reflect the change in the contribution between these actions, stress variation in the longitudinal reinforcement along the span is considered by use of the Jenq and Shah Model. Dowel action with horizontal splitting failure and shear friction between cracks are also taken into account. ize effect is included to derive a more precise equation. Regression analysis is performed to determine each variable and simplify the equation. And, the formula derived from theoretical approaches is evaluated by comparison with numerous experimental data, which are in broad range of concrete strength(especially in high strength concrete), shear span to depth ratio, geometrical size and longitudinal steel ratio. It is shown that the proposed equation is more accurate and simpler than other empirical equations, so a wide range of a/d can be considered in one equation.
