The Durability cycle is very important for the success of vehicle testing to evaluate Retarder. The purpose of this study is to develop the durability mode on performance evaluation of retarder. Commercial vehicles are equipped with an auxiliary braking device in order to increase safety. A typical device for retarder depends heavily on imports. Domestic development has now become an urgent task. But, No state has an evaluation method for performance evaluation of the auxiliary braking device. We presented the durability test mode for the performance evaluation of the retarder was verified experimentally.

In this study, durability performance of blended cement mortars is evaluated when various mineral admixtures are used with the cement. A comprehensive evaluation of the effects of mineral admixtures on the mortar performance was made. The properties of fresh and hardened blended mortars investigated include slump flow and compressive strength. The durability characteristics of cement materials incorporating the mineral admixtures under various physical and chemical causes of deterioration was investigated. The laboratory test results indicate that mechanical and durability properties of blended cement mortars have superior performance rather than ordinary cement mortars.

In this paper, the quantitative evaluation method is presented for the durability performance of mountain tunnel concrete linings experiencing freezing and thawing during winter season. To analyze the freeze-thaw characteristics of lining, the freezing time of the concrete lining was measured by the outside temperature. The heat flow analysis was conducted based on the freezing time measured through the indoor experiment, and based on this, the energy required to freeze the concrete lining by the temperature of the outside air could be analyzed. In addition, the temperature change during the winter season was measured through an instrument installed on the actual tunnel concrete lining, and based on the results of indoor and field experiments, criteria for freeze-thaw environment evaluation and progress evaluation were prepared. Also, an equation using the freezing index was proposed through regression analysis.

Durability performance evaluation technology using Virtual Testing Method is a new concept of a vehicle design, which can reduce the automotive components design period and cost. In this paper, the fatigue life of an aluminum knuckle of a passenger car is evaluated using virtual testing method. The flexible multibody dynamic model of a front half car module is generated and solved with service loads which are measured from Belgian roads. Using a multibody dynamic analysis software, the flexible multibody dynamic simulation of a half car model is carried out and the dynamic stress profile of an aluminum knuckle is acquired. The stress profile is exported to a fatigue analysis software and durability performance of an aluminum knuckle is evaluated.

The evaluation of durability performance in Virtual Testing Laboratory(VTL) is a new concept of vehicle design, which can reduce the automotive design period and cost. In this study, the multibody dynamics model of a car is built with a reverse engineering design. Hard points and masses of components are measured by a surface scanning device and imported into CAD system. In order to simulate the non-linear dynamic behavior of force elements such as dampers and bushes, components and materials are tested with specialized test equipments. An optimized numerical model for the damping behavior is used and the hysteresis of bush rubber is considered in the simulation. Loads of components are calculated in VTL and used in the evaluation of durability performance. In order to verify simulation results, loads of components in the vehicle are measured and durability tests are performed.

The purpose of this study is to introduce the standard of the durability and evaluation method for paper shredder. The major evaluation criteria include shredding capability, shredding blade (or cutter) hardness and edge roughness, and durability. Due to the difficulties in assessing the durability directly, performance deterioration of the shredder was assessed by measuring the torque variation along with the variation in shredded chip size and load, thereby proposing the indirect method of assessing the paper shredder durability.

Recently, interest in maintenance has been increasing due to the enlargement and aging of infra structures. Therefore, a new paradigm is required to secure and improve the durability of structures differentiated from the past. Accordingly, research on smart concrete incorporating the concept of self-healing into concrete is being actively conducted. In this study, the crack healing performance and durability performance of self-healing concrete applied with a hydrogel containing biomineral-forming microorganisms were evaluated. As a result of evaluating the dispersion of the hydrogel in concrete, it was confirmed that the hydrogel was well distributed in concrete matrix with a dispersion coefficient of 0.35 to 0.46. The crack healing performance evaluation was verified by a water permeability test, and showed a recovery rate of 95% or more at the age of 28 days, confirming the applicability of self-healing concrete. The durability performance of self-healing concrete was evaluated in terms of resistance to penetration of chloride ion and freezing and thawing. Regardless of the mixing of the hydrogel, the same level of durability performance was shown for various compressive strength level. Therefore, it was confirmed that the microbial admixture did not affect concrete durability. In the future, long-term crack healing performance and durability verification studies should be supplemented.

고분자 전해질 연료전지(PEMFC) 성능과 가격인하를 위해 고분자막의 두께가 얇아지는 추세에서 내구성을 향상시키는 연구가 더욱 중요하게 되었다. 고분자막의 내구성 평가에서 기계적 내구성 평가시간이 화학적 내구성 평가시간보다 2배 이상 소요되므로 내구성 평가 조건을 잘 선택하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기계적 내구 평가 프로토콜(Wet/Dry)에서 유입가스 종류와 유량에 차이가 있을 때 기계적 내구 평가시간이 얼마나 변하는지 확인하고자 하였다. 2,000 mL/min 유량에서 질소를 사용했을 때 평가시간이 공기를 사용했을 때보다 1.25배 증가했다. 공기 사용시 전극 Pt의 열화속도가 증가하는 것이 주 요인이었다. 유량이 800 mL/min 으로 감소하면 공기와 질소 평가시간이 각각 1.5배, 1.2배 증가했다.

Durability performance evaluation of automotive components is very important and time consuming task. In this paper, to reduce vehicle component development time and cost virtual testing simulation technology is used to evaluate durability performance of a passenger car front aluminum sub-frame. Multibody dynamics based vehicle model and virtual test simulation model of a half car road simulator are validated by comparisons between rig test results and simulation results. Durability life prediction of the sub-frame is carried out using the model with road load data of proving ground which can evaluate accelerated durability life. We found that the durability performance of the sub-frame is sufficient and it can be predicted within short time compared to rig test time.

2019년 개정된 시설물 안전과 유지관리 세부지침을 보면, 기존의 안전성 중심의 시설물 평가에서 내구성과 사용성을 추가한 성능평가로 확대된 바 있다. 이러한 확대는 전 세계적으로 이슈화되고 있는 시설물의 고령화와 시설 이용측면을 반영한 점이기는 하나 실제로 이러한 시설물 평가가 유지관리와 관계된 보수보강과 연계되기 때문에 각 세부성능 간의 상관관계 및 목표 성능의 선정과 연계된 성능보강시 우선순위 결정 등 많은 후속연구가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 국내 도로시설에 설치된 옹벽을 중심으로 기존의 시설물 평가이력에 대한 분석을 통해 우선적으로 개정된 성능평가에서 적절한 목표 성능을 제시하였다. 또한, 실제 2개의 옹벽에 대해 평가를 수행하고 목표성능의 적절성 여부를 검토하였다. 그리고, 안전성과 내구성만으로 구성된 옹벽의 성능평가에 사용성 부분을 추가할 수 있는 세부 지표를 제시하였다.
