The stud is one of the most frequently used shear connectors which are important to the steel-concrete composite action. The static and fatigue behavior of stud in the steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) were particularly concerned in this study through the push-out tests and analysis. It was for the purpose of investigating and explaining a tendency proposed by the current existing researches that the SFRC may ameliorate the shear connector's mechanical performance, and thus contributing to the corresponding design practice. There were 20 test specimens in the tests and 8 models in the analysis. According to the test and analysis results, the SFRC had an obvious effect of restraining the concrete damage and improving the stud static performance when the compressive strength of the host concrete was relatively low. As to the fatigue aspect, the steel fibers in concrete also tended to improve the stud fatigue life, and the favorable tensile performance of SFRC may be the main reason. But such effect was found to vary with the fatigue load range. Moreover, the static and fatigue test results were compared with several design codes. Particularly, the fatigue life estimation of Eurocode 4 appeared to be less conservative than that of AASHTO, and to have higher safety redundancy than that of JSCE hybrid structure guideline.

In this study, strain-controlled low cycle fatigue test for hot rolled STS304 steel was carried out at $400^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$, respectively. High temperature fatigue test was done using an electric furnace attached on the hydraulic fatigue test machine. The results of this study show that STS304 hot rolled steel has excellent static strength and fatigue characteristics. The hysteresis loop at half life was obtained in order to calculate the elastic and plastic strain. Also, Relationship between strain amplitude and fatigue life was examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of STS304 steel by Coffin-Manson equation.

A testing system was developed to improve the reliability of printhead and several printheads were tested. We developed a thermally driven monolithic inkjet printhead comprising dome-shaped ink chambers, thin film nozzle guides, and omega-shaped heaters integrated on the top surface of each chamber. To perform a fatigue test of an inkjet printhead, the testing system automatically detects a heating failure using a Wheatstone bridge circuit. Various models were designed and tested to develop a more reliable printhead. Two design parameters of the width of reinforcing layer and heater were investigated in the test. Specially., the reinforcing layer was introduced to improve the fatigue life of printhead. The life-span of heater with a reinforcing layer was longer than that without a reinforcing layer. The wider the heater was, the longer the life of printhead was.

To investigate the effect of nitriding layer on both fatigue crack initiation and fatigue life, turbine rotor steel ( IC.- 1Mo-0.25V steel) specimens were nitrided by the nitemper method and then put to a rotary bending fatigue test at room and elevated temperatures. In nitriding, temperature and time were controlled to obtain a different nitrided thickness. Microstructure analysis, micro-Victors hardness test, and scanning electron microscope observation were carried out for evaluating experiments. In results, the fatigue cracks of nitrided specimens were initiated at inclusion near the interface between nitrided layer and substrate, which showed fish-eye type appearance in fractograph. The fatigue life of nitrided specimens at every temperature was prolonged compared to that of the non-nitrided. However, there was not observable improvement in fatigue characteristics with the increase of a nitrided thickness.

The effect of weld improvement on the corroded fatigue life of welded structures was investigated. Toe grinding, TIG dressing and weld profiling were used as the geometric improvement methods. Fatigue tests under the corroded condition in artificial seawater were carried out to investigate the corrosion fatigue behavior of API 2W Gr.50T steel plate produced by POSCO. The test results in weld improved conditions were compared with those in as-welded condition. The test results were also compared with the design curves in UK DEn Class F. Corroded fatigue life of weld improved specimens was longer than that of as-welded specimen. Especially, the corroded fatigue life exceeded the mean SN curve in air of UK DEn Class F.

The catenary wires are damaged by periodic running of train as well as repeated stress. The wires are also degraded by atmosphere corrosion at fields. Corrosion of wires increased surface roughness and deteriorated mechanical properties by providing fatigue crack initiation sited resulting in a bad effect on service life of the wires. Fatigue test of catenary wires performed to estimate service lifetime. Also, simulation to analyze stress on catenary wires was conducted through modelling the finite elements for dynamic behaviors of wires. Fatigue life of catenary wires was estimated with fatigue and simulation tests.

Fretting is a kind of surface degradation mechanism observed in mechanical components and structures. The fretting damage decreases into 50-70% of the plain fatigue strength. The connecting rod for automobile has been used in special environments and various loading conditions. Failure of connecting rod in automotive engine may cause catastrophic situation. In this study, we investigated the fatigue characteristic of connecting rod material for an automobile. Fatigue life is defined as the number of cyclic stress to failure by regular cyclic stress. Fatigue life of C70S6 specimen was obtained from 134,000 to 147,000 cycles. Fatigue limit showed 432MPa by normal fatigue test. The other hands, it was 96MPa in the case of fretting fatigue test. It was extremely lower than that of a normal fatigue test. From observation of fracture surface, it was confirmed that the fatigue crack was initiated at the boundary of a specimen and bridge pad.

교량, 도로, 공항 및 해양구조물 등은 반복하중을 받게 되는 대표적 토목구조물이다. 특히 공항이나 도로포장체는 휨에 의한 인장에 의해 파괴되기 때문에 사용재료의 특성에 기초한 피로수명의 고찰은 매우 중요하다. 따라서, 이 논문에서는 포장 콘크리트의 피로수명을 주요 실험변수에 따라 실험하고 실험방법에 따라 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 피로실험은 쪼갬인장 피로실험 ($\phi150mm{\times}75mm$)과 휨인장 피로실험 ($150mm{\times}150mm{\times}550mm$) 방법을 적용하여 하중재하 속도(1, 5, 10, 20Hz), 하중재하 형상(사각파, 정현파, 삼각파). 시험체의 습윤조건(건조상태 습윤상태) 및 양생기간(28일, 56일)을 주요 실험변수로 하여 수행하였다. 실험결과 하중재하 속도가 느릴수록 피로수명은 현저히 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 하중재하 속도가 빠를수록 피로수명은 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 하중재하 형상에 따라서는 정현파를 기준하여 사각파에서는 피로수명의 급격한 감소를 나타냈으며 삼각파에서는 피로수명이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다 또한, 시험체의 습윤조건에 따라서는 건조상태에 비하여 습윤상태에서는 피로수명이 감소하였으며, 양생기간에 따라서는 재령 28일에서 56일로 증가함에 따라 피로수명이 증가함을 나타내었다.
