The structural test technique and equipment for strength test of astronautical structures, such as rocket, were presented in this paper. Structural strength tests of the fin assembly with fin and fin frame in the scientific sound rocket were performed with load levels of 100% limit load and 150% ultimate load of design lift force. Safety factors in each part of the fin assembly were calculated at these two load levels and the stiffnesses based on the measured deflection of fin assembly and strains on fin and fin frame were evaluated at these two load level. As the result of structural test, the fin assembly was estimated to be safe.

Since the inner barrel assembly of the Advanced Power Reactor 1400 reactor vessel is a new design feature introduced instead of CEA(control element assembly) shroud assembly, the inner barrel assembly can be a significant object of structural integrity assessment. This paper covers the structural responses of top plate, which is a component of the inner barrel assembly, against the deterministic hydraulic load induced by pump pulsation and the random hydraulic load induced by turbulence of coolant. The top plate responds to the deterministic hydraulic load more than to the random hydraulic load and shows enough structural integrity. The results of this paper will be important basis for the selection of instruments and measurement location.

The block assembly process takes more than half of the total shipbuilding processes. Therefore, it is very important to have a practically useful block assembly process planning system which can build plans of maximum efficiency with minimum man-hours required. However, the process plans are often not readily executable in the assembly shops due to severe imbalance of workloads. This problem arises because the process planning is done on block by block basis in current practice without paying any attention to the load distribution among the assembly shops. this paper presents the development of an automated hull block assembly process planning system which results in the most effective use of production resources and also produces plans that enable efficient time management. If the load balance of assembly shops is to be considered at the time of process planning, the task becomes complicated because of the increased computational complexity. To solve this problem, a new approach is adopted in this research in which the load balancing function and process planning function are iterated alternately providing to each other contexts for subsequent improvement. The result of case study with the data supplied from the shipyard shows that the system developed in this research is very effective and useful.

The top and bottom nozzles of PWR fuel assembly are connected by guide thimbles and an instrumentation tube that are connected with spacer grids. The fuel rods are inserted into the each cell of spacer grids. The loads acting on the fuel assembly are transmitted to the guide thimbles through the flow plate of top nozzle The axial loads applied to the fuel assembly are not equally distributed among the guide thimble due to the geometry of the top nozzle flow plate and spacer grid. In this study, the load concentration factors for the $17\times17$ fuel assembly were calculated. The analytical model fur the calculation of the load concentration factor of top nozzle flow plate was developed using ANSYS 5.6. The finite element analyses were performed using the model composed of top nozzle, guide thimble, and spacer grid. And, the analysis results were compared with the test results.

This paper presents a production scheduling model in a block assembly shop in shipbuilding industry. In a block assembly shop, the most important performance criterion is load leveling, which balances manpower and work area utilization through the planning horizon. The problem is formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming(MINLP) problem of which objective function is to optimize load leveling. The developed MINLP problem can not be solvable due to computational complexity. The MINLP problem is decomposed into two stage mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problems to obtain a good solution, but the decomposed MILP problems are still computationally intractable because of combinatorial complexity. Therfore, a heuristic method using linear programming is proposed to solve two stage MILP problems sequentially. The proposed heuristic generates a good production schedule within a reasonable computation time, and it is easily applicable for establishing the production schedule in a block assembly shop in shipbuilding industry.

This paper describes a scheduling problem of the panel block assembly shop in a shipbuilding industry. Because the shipbuilding is a labor intensive industry the most important consideration in a panel block assembly shop is the workload balancing. which balances man-hour weight and welding length and so on. It should be determined assembly schedule and workstation considering a daily load balancing and a workstation load balancing simultaneously. To solve the problem we develop a hybrid genetic algorithm. Hybrid genetic algorithm proposed in this paper consists of two phases. The first phase uses the heuristic method to find a initial feasible solution which provides a useful information about optimal solution. The second phase proposes the genetic algorithm to derive the optimal solution with the initial population consisting of feasible solutions based on the initial solution. Finally we carried out computational experiments for this load balancing problem which indicate that developed method is effective for finding good solutions.

The objective of the current study is to characterize the long-term stability and efficacy of a structural adhesive assembly under static load. An apparatus was designed to be used in the Instron tensile test machine that would allow for real time modeling of the failure characteristics of an assembly utilizing a moisture- cure adhesive which was bonded to concrete. A regression model was developed that followed a linear - natural log function which was used to predict the expected life of the assembly. Evaluations at different curing times confirmed the structure was more robust with longer cure durations prior to loading. Finally, the results show that under the conditions the assembly was tested, there was only a small amount of inelastic creep and the regression models demonstrated the potential for a stable structure lasting several decades.

The purpose of this paper is to present the development processes of the assembly line tester of power transmission for lift truck. Because power transmission is most important part of lift truck, all assembled powertrain parts must be inspected for operational defects, pressures and RPM. Developed assembly line tester is designed to take about 25 minutes for inspecting each assembled power transmission and located it at the end of assembled line. The assembly line no-load tester consists of three parts: (1) the driving hardware part; for installing and operating the transmission. (2) control PCB part; send data from sensors to a computer and control driving part, (3) operation software of no-load tester; for an automatic inspection or manual inspection, for database management and printing transcripts.

Fuel assembly's mechanical characterization test facility (FAMeCT) in KAERI was constructed with upgraded functional features such as increased loading capacity, underwater vibration testing and severe earthquake simulation for extended fuel design guideline. This facility is designed and developed to provide out-pile fuel data for accident analysis model and fuel licensing. Functional tests of FAMeCT were performed to confirm functionality, structural integrity, and validity of newly-built fuel assembly mechanical test facility. Test program includes signal check of data acquisition system, load delivering capacity using real-sized fuel assemblies and a standard loading cylindrical rigid specimen. Fuel assembly's lateral bending test was carried out up to 30 mm of pull-out displacement. Limit case axial compression loading test up to 33 kN was performed to check structural integrity of UCPS (Upper Core Plate Simulator) support frame. Test results show that all test equipment and measurement system have acceptable range of alignment, signal to noise ratio, load carrying capacity limit without loss of integrity. This paper introduces newly constructed fuel assembly's mechanical test facility and summarizes results of functional test for the mechanical test equipment and data acquisition system.

This paper describes the analysis of state when load applies to McPherson strut assembly. Strut assembly except knuckle-arm are created with 3 dimensional modeling program. Stress and structural strength on this model are analyzed by analysis program as load applies on the lower part of assembly modeling. When McPherson suspension is applied with 3000N at Z direction, maximum stress at spring becomes 433MPa and the cycle of minimum life is 4321. The designed modeling suspension at this study has no possibility with resonance.
