Any pre-existed delamination defect present during manufacturing or induce during service loading conditions in the wingskin adherend invariably shows a greater loss of structural integrity of the spar wingskin joint (SWJ). In the present study, inter-laminar delamination propagation at the critical location of the SWJ has been carried out using contact and multi-point constraint finite elements available with commercial FE software (ANSYS APDL). Strain energy release rates (SERR) based on virtual crack closure technique have been computed for evaluation of the opening (Mode-I), sliding (Mode-II) and cross sliding (Mode-III) modes of delamination by sequential release of multi point constraint elements. The variations of different modes of SERR are observed to be significant by considering varied delamination lengths, material properties of adherends and radius of curvature of the SWJ panel. The SERR rates are seen to be much different at the two pre-embedded delamination ends. This shows dissimilar delamination propagation rates. The maximum is seen to occur in the delamination front in the unstiffened region of the wingskin. The curvature geometry and material anisotropy of SWJ adherends significantly influences the SERR values. Increase in the SERR values are observed with decrease in the radius of curvature of wingskin panel, keeping its width unchanged. SWJs made with flat FRP composite adherends have superior resistance to delamination damage propagation than curved composite laminated SWJ panels. SWJ made with Boron/Epoxy (B/E) material shows greater resistance to the delamination propagation.

The tensile and fracture toughness tests have been conducted to investigate the degradations of mechanical properties induced mainly by neutron irradiations in Zr-2.5Nb CANDU pressure tube materials operated in Wolsung Unit-1. the tests were performed at room, 150, 200, 250, 300 $\^{C}$ for the irradiated and unirradiated specimens in hot cell. The specimens were directly machined from the tube retaining original curvature using specially designed electric discharge machine(EDM). From the tensile tests of the irradiated specimens, it was found that tensile strength was increased and total elongation was decreased compared to those of the unirradiated ones. The active voltages in the fracture toughness tests for the irradiated showed the discontinuous abrupt increases caused by crack jumping in lower temperature. In the crack resistance curves we found the stable crack growth in the unirradiated, whereas the unstable and three crack growth stages in the irradiated specimens due to the accumulated irradiation defects. The various fracture characteristic values in the irradiated are remarkably lower than those of the unirradiated. Through the fractography, we found in the irradiated that smaller dimple and shorter fissures than the unirradiated, and that the fractured surface had three regions that were flat, transition and slant/shear area. These can explain the difference in the crack growth characteristic values of the irradiated and the unirradiated ones.

In this study, a progressive process was performed to fabricate the inner fin of a high-efficiency heat exchanger. A forming simulation was also carried out on the concavo-convex of the inner fin, forming a simulation based on elastic-plastic finite element method. The forming analysis where the speed of the press descended and ascended was set to five seconds showed that the effective stress was at a maximum of about 69 MPa in the curved portion where the bending occurred. Therefore, the die was designed based on the simulation results, and the inner fin die was installed on the 400-ton capacity press. After that, the inner fin fabrication experiment was conducted under the same condition as the simulation. Crack was not found from the curved portion of the concavo-convex of the inner fin. The profile of the concavo-convex of the prepared inner fin measured 6.7~6.8 mm in depth, 2.65~2.7 mm in width, and 0.3 mm in thickness.

교통수요의 증가에 따른 교통혼잡을 피하기 위하여 고가도로와 고속도로, 경전철 등이 활발히 건설되고 있으며, 이에 따라 접속부 등과 같은 곡률반경이 작은 곡선교 구간의 발생이 증가하고 있다. 초기에는 직선형의 주형을 연결하여 곡선을 이루는 방법을 사용하였으나, 공사비의 증가와 미관성 측면에서 용이하지 않아 강재를 사용한 곡선주형이 개발되어 적용되고 있다. 강재의 특성상 기하학적인 형상을 구현하는데 상대적으로 손쉽기 때문에 대부분의 곡선교에서는 강재를 이용한 강박스 거더교를 주로 사용하고 있다. 그러나 강박스 거더교는 초기 공사비가 고가이고, 도장과 같은 지속적인 유지관리가 필요한 문제점을 가지고 있다. 최근에는 I형 강재 플레이트 거더를 사용하는 방법이 활발히 연구되고 있으나 곡선 I형상의 특성상 개단면이고 얇은 플레이트를 사용하기 때문에 비틀림 강성이 매우 작아 안전성에 문제가 있는 것으로 지적되고 있다. 이러한 곡선강교의 대안으로 경제성과 안전성이 확보되는 프리캐스트 PSC 곡선거더가 제시되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 프리캐스트 PSC 곡선거더를 효율적으로 제작할 수 있는 스마트 몰드 시스템을 개발하고 이를 적용한 2주형 40m 실물교량의 정적 휨 파괴 실험을 통하여 안전성을 확인하고자 한다. 제작단계에서 단일 거더는 곡률반경에 의해 거더의 전도에 대한 안정성이 문제가 있으나 가로보로 연결된 멀티거더는 하중분배가 적절히 이루어지며 안정성이 확보되는 것으로 나타났다. 정적구조 실험결과에서는 균열하중(1,400 kN)이 설계하중(450 kN)의 약 3배 이상 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 허용처짐량에 해당하는 하중은 설계하중의 4배인 1,800 kN에서 발생하여 사용성과 안전성이 모두 확보되는 것으로 나타났다.

최근 보강토 공법은 구조적으로 안정성이 우수하고 경제성이 뛰어나 콘크리트 옹벽을 대체하는 공법으로 많이 사용되고 있으며, 옹벽뿐만 아니라 기초, 사면, 도로 등에 그 적용 범위가 다양하다. 그러나, 우수와 같은 침투수로 인해 전면 벽에서 충분한 안정성을 확보하지 못하여 붕괴, 배부름 현상 등의 피해가 발생할 수 있고, 특히 곡선부에서는 응력집중 현상에 의해 전면 벽의 균열 등의 문제가 추가적으로 일어날 수 있다. 이는 보강토 옹벽 곡선부에 대한 정확한 설계 기준이 미흡하고 부실시공을 하는데 원인이 있다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 보강토 옹벽의 피해사례를 통해 문제점을 파악하고 유한요소 수치해석을 통해 보강토 옹벽 설계를 위한 기초 연구로서, 옹벽의 형상(볼록형, 오목형)에 따른 직선부와 곡선부의 거동을 비교 분석하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes with use of short-curved stems versus standard-length single wedged stems over a minimum follow-up period of five years. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of primary total hip arthroplasties performed using the Fitmore^® stem (127 hips, 122 patients) and the M/L taper^® stem (195 hips, 187 patients) between October 2012 and June 2014 was conducted. The clinical and radiographic outcomes were obtained for evaluation over a minimum follow-up period of five years. Results: In both the Fitmore^® and M/L taper^® groups, the mean Harris hip score improved from 52.4 and 48.9 preoperatively to 93.3 and 94.5 at the final follow-up, respectively (P=0.980). The mean Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index scores also improved from 73.3 and 76.8 preoperatively to 22.9 and 25.6 at the final follow-up, respectively (P=0.465). Fifteen hips (Fitmore^®: 14 hips; M/L taper^®: one hip, P<0.001) developed intraoperative cracks and were treated simultaneously with cerclage wiring. Radiography showed a radiolucent line in 24 hips in the Fitmore^® group and 12 hips in the M/L taper^® group (P=0.125). Cortical hypertrophy was detected in 29 hips (Fitmore^® group: 28 hips; M/L taper^® group: one hip, P<0.001). Conclusion: Similarly favorable clinical and radiographic outcomes were achieved with use of both short-curved stems and standard-length single wedged stems. However, higher cortical hypertrophy and a higher rate of femoral crack were observed with use of Fitmore^® stems.

The localization of manufacturing technique development is actualizing for low cost with supplies of display devices. We need more high cutting technique because consumers want flat glasses of various sizes. Recently, most general two methods are normal wheel cutting and laser cutting, but both of them have some faults. First, the wheel cutting has cracks and sharp edges of sections. Second, it is easy for laser cutting to cut curved lines. however, it has thermal damage and low traverse speed. I suggest a new cutting method by high-wave frequency vibration wheel cutting(HFVC), which is good for quality improvement. Vertical cracks and crack depth is observed, after HFVC. When the average of the crack depth is $30{\mu}m$ and the average of the wallner liner depth is $200{\mu}m$, it has the most high quality of the sections in this experiment. As a result, when we consider between the normal wheel cutting method and the HFVC method, the latter has low cracks and good quality.

The pipes have been laid underground while the industry is developing. We have to take maintenance procedure when the pipes are cracked or ruptured. It is very difficult jop to check pipe's crack because the pipes are narrow and laid underground. Using in-pipe robot, we can check the conditions of inner section of pipes, therefore, we designed a crawler type robot to search cracked pipe. In this paper, we have made a special focus on the control of the robot using differential drive algorithm to move in curved section of pipes. The detailed design of the robot with experimental result show the effectiveness of the robot in pipe maintenance.

Ultrasonic machining is effective for machining of extreme hard and brittle materials, including glass, ceramic, carbide, graphite. The major machining principle involves the direct hammering as well as the impact of abrasive panicles on the workpiece. Also, it involve cavitation erosion. The general workpiece is flat side. This study attempted micro hole machining of a curved surface of glass tube. Ultrasonic machining is fault of the slow machining speed. An experiment does and got 16 seconds validity machining time as increasing the processing speed. Moreover, entrance crack and surface roughness was similar both machining speed is slow and fast. Several micro hole of glass tube machined using one micro tool, but tool wear is infinitesimal.

The purpose of this study is to develop of unbonded tendon model considering time-dependent behavior. In this paper, a numerical model for unbanded tendon is proposed based on the finite element method, which can represent straight or curved unbonded tendon behavior. This model and time-dependent material model are used to investigate the time-dependent behaviors of unbonded prestressed concrete structures. A computer program, named RCAHEST(Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology), for the analysis of concrete structures was used. The material nonlinearities are taken into account by comprising the tension, compression, and shear models of cracked concrete and models for reinforcements and tendons in the concrete. The smeared crack approach is incorporated. It accounts for the aging, creep and shrinkage of concrete and the stress relaxation of prestressing steel. The proposed unbonded tendon model and numerical method for time-dependent behavior of unbonded prestressed concrete structures is verified by comparison with reliable experimental results.
