The deterioration of a shunting locomotive was characterized for the lifetime assessment. The locomotive has been used for shunting works in steel making processes, and in this investigation, various types of technical evaluation methods for the locomotive parts were employed to assess the current deterioration status and to provide important clue for lifetime prediction. Unlike other rolling stocks in railway applications, the diesel shunting locomotive is composed of major components such as diesel engine, transmission, gear box, brake system, electronic devices, etc., which cover more than 70 percent of the total price of the locomotive. Therefore, in this paper, each part of major components in the diesel locomotive was analyzed in terms of the degree of deterioration. The lift-cycle-cost (LCC) analysis was performed based on the maintenance and repair history as compared with economical cost to provide the cost-effective prediction, i.e., to assess either repair for reuse or putting the locomotive out of service based on cost-effective calculation.

An integrated fatigue strength assessment system was computerized. The system developed consists of 9 modules: user interface, cycle counting, load history construction, data searching, fatigue properties estimation, fatigue data analysis, true stress and strain analysis, expert system for crack initiation life prediction, fatigue crack initiation and propagation life prediction. Fatigue strength database also was included in this system. The fatigue expert system helps a beginner to predict a fatigue crack initiation life in fatigue strength assessment. The expert system module in this system is developed on the personal computer by using C language and UNiK, an expert system developing tool. To evaluate the system, the results of test under variable loading of SAE and failure data from a field were analyzed. The evaluation show that the system provided fatigue life prediction within 3-scatter band and gave reasonable predictions. To get more accurate predictions of fatigue life without fatigue properties, we recommend utilizing the system along with the fatigue strength database.

레일마모는 열차의 주행안전 및 승차감에 미치는 영향이 크고, 소음 진동의 주요원인으로 작용한다. 또한 레일마모가 발생할 경우 궤도구조의 파괴를 촉진시킴으로써 차량 및 궤도유지보수비를 크게 증가시킨다. 따라서 현장에서 발생하는 마모 원인을 체계적으로 분석함으로써 마모를 저감할 수 있도록 차량운행 조건과 선로선형 및 궤도구조를 설계하는 것은 중요한 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 궤도의 효율적인 유지관리를 위해 궤도를 구성하고 있는 레일, 체결구, 침목, 도상 등의 요소를 고려하여 레일 궤도의 생애주기 거동 및 유지관리 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 축적된 진단/검측 데이터로부터 궤도 구성품의 건전도를 평가할 수 있는 방법을 정립하고 잔존수명을 예측하여 효율적 유지관리를 실현할 수 있는 기법 개발을 위하여 지하철 레일단면마모데이터를 이용한 구간 특성에 따른 시간-마모량의 확률적 분포 변화와 다중회귀 분석을 수행하였다.

The objectives of this study were to assess physical habitat suitability of fish species for different life cycle stages and to suggest appropriate ecological stream flows in a Bokha downstream reach. A dominant species of Zacco platypus was selected as the study fish of which three stages of spawning, juvenile and adult in life cycle were considered into assessment. The stream hydraulic environment was calibrated with HEC-RAS before the PHABSIM simulation. The hydraulics of flow velocity and depth were used to estimate Weighted Usable Area (WUA) by multiplying respective habitat suitability indices with stream area. Overall the WUAs tend to be great in gentle slopes with relatively shallow water depth regions. Maximum WUAs, ie, candidate for ecological flow rates were 1 m³/s, 7 m³/s and 8 m³/s for the respective spawning, juvenile and adult stages of Zacco platypus. Since the ecological flow rates for juvenile and adult stages appeared to be is greater than the abundant flow rate (3.67 m³/s) for the study reach, additional water supply may be needed but should be cautious to avoid the spawning period of Apr through May from the stream water management perspective.

These Study are for the development of the reliability assessment test code and test equipment and test procedures of the heavy sluice gate hydraulic cylinder. Because there is no reliability test code for the heavy sluice gate hydraulic cylinder inside and outside of the country, the modified reliability test code is made reference for the related existing standards like as ISO, JIS, MIL, TUV, DIN, KS and etc. In this study, the novel method is proposed to evaluate efficiency of the heavy sluice gate hydraulic cylinder on the loading conditions and established the conditions of the acceleration life test to reduce the testing time and cycles. The testing equipments for life test, lode operating test, high and low temperature test and salt spray test have been established for 8 month, and the reliability tests are accomplished. The test results of the heavy sluice gate hydraulic cylinder which is produced and tested initially in Korea are satisfied the durability life cycle on the using conditions.

The objective of this study is to estimate the feasibility of X-ray diffraction method application for fatigue life assessment of the high-temperature pipeline steel such as main steam pipe, reheater pipe and header etc. in power plant. In this study, X-ray diffraction tests using various types of specimen simulated low cycle fatigue damage were performed in order to analyze fatigue properties when fatigue damage conditions become various stages such as 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 of fatigue life, respectively. As a result of X-ray diffraction tests for specimens simulated fatigue damages, we conformed that the variation of the full width at half maximum intensity decreased in proportion to the increase of fatigue life ratio.

This paper outlines research to study two aspects of Cryptooridium. First, specific antigenic determinants were identified and followed through the growth cycle of C. parvum to investigate antigenic sharing of molecular epitopes among the different life cycle stages. Secondly, the importance of passive immune protective mechanisms in cryptosporidial infection was assessed by following the course of infection in neonatal mice which have been subjected to treatments using either monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) or hyperimmune bovine colostrum.

가스터빈엔진의 고온 부품은 초내열 합금 재료를 이용하며, 냉각설계 적용으로 형상이 복잡하여 정밀 주조 과정을 거치게 된다. 터빈 부품에 주로 적용이 되는 일방향 응고 및 단결정 재료는 제조 과정에서 결정립 성장 방향이 설계와 다르게 섭동을 가지게 되며, 이는 각 방향에 대한 재료 상수의 섭동을 유발하여 응력 분포의 변화와 함께 피로 수명에 큰 산포를 야기하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 일방향 응고 재료 노즐에 대하여 결정립 성장 방향의 섭동에 대한 구조 건전성의 영향을 저주기 피로 수명을 통해 확인하여, 향후 제작 허용값에 대한 제안 및 좀 더 정교한 통계적 접근이 필요함을 확인하고자 한다. 이를 위해 복합 열전달 해석을 통해 금속 온도 분포를 계산하고 이를 근거로 구조 해석 및 저주기 피로 수명을 계산하였다.

Generally, the analysis of railroad wear data is most effective method for the efficient railway maintenance. The wear of railway track affects loss of rough ride, noise or vibration of train and traveling safety. Moreover as the track is worn away, this promotes destruction of structural mechanism of rail track which can bring about increasing of rail track maintenance cost drastically. For this reason, it is very important and interested research subject to design railway track structure and to analyse train movement mechanism based on systematic analysis of the reasons causing rail wear possible in real field. In this research, for the efficient maintenance, Life Cycle Performance of rail track and maintenance characteristics are computed considering some track components such as track type, contracting type, sleeper type and roadbed type. Time - Wear probabilistic distribution relationship as well as multiple regression analysis based on time, curvature and wear data are computed to predict the service life remainder of railway track and to be adapted to safety assessment.

Low cycle fatigue behaviors of SA508-3 low-alloy steel were investigated in room-temperature air, high-temperature air and in light water reactor (LWR) water environments. The fatigue mean curve and design curve for the low-alloy steel are developed based on the fatigue data in room-temperature and high-temperature air. The environmental fatigue model for low-alloy steel is developed by the environmental fatigue correction factor (F_en) methodology based on the fatigue data in LWR water environments with the consideration of effects of strain rate, temperature, and dissolved oxygen concentration on the fatigue life.
