The research for the fatigue analysis is regarded greatly as important in aerospace field. Moreover, a study on the fatigue characteristic is very actively progressing. In this study, the fatigue life estimation was performed for Flaperon Joint which has FCL(fatigue critical location) of tilt-rotor UAV. The Flaperon Joint should be taken the various loads by several missions profiles of UAV. The fatigue load spectrum of Flaperon Joint is generated by the standard mission segment for the tilt-rotor UAV, and this spectrum is used for the fatigue test and analysis. The in-house fatigue analysis program is applied to calculate the fatigue life based on Stress-Life(S-N) method. The S-N curve is generated from the S-N data of Mil-Handbook by second order polynomial regression method. Moreover, the coefficient of determination is used to ensure how accuracy it has. In addition, the Goodman equation is used to consider the mean stress effect for evaluating more accurate fatigue life. Finally, the result of fatigue analysis is verified by comparing with the fatigue test result for the Flaperon Joint.

Acceleration time history used in the seismic analysis of nuclear power plant structures should envelop a target power spectral density (PSD) function in addition to the design response spectrum in order to have sufficient energy at each frequency for the purpose of ensuring adequate load. The safety for complex long-span highway bridges cannot be over-emphasize. An alternative method to improve the seismic capacity is to ensure the minimum PSD function of the applied seismic load. This study proposes a technical scheme to obtain the reference power spectral density function by using artificial earthquakes which are compatible with the highway bridge design spectrum.

Recently it is used seismic analysis like single mode spectrum analysis, multi mode spectrum analysis and time history analysis in Korea. Because bridges are not special form of them but regular and simple form of them in our country, we must develope seismic analysis program of bridge based on single nude spectrum analysis. The program developed by this study reduces a Quantity and a time of calculation compared to SAP90 and gives accurate answers without errors. In the case of commercial program if we look for seismic load(P/sub e/(x)), we must increase the number of node and the larger the number of node the more a quantity and a time of calculation. But this program is exactly solved with basic node compared to commercial program.

The load interaction effect can be best illustrated by the phenomenon of overload retardation. Some prediction methods for retardation are reviewed and the problems discussed in the present paper. The so-called under-load effect much of the retardation disappears if a very low level minimum stress follows the overload, is also of importance for a prediction model to work properly under random load spectrum. The concept of Interactive Zone (IZ) fully considering reversed plasticity during unloading was discussed. This IZ concept can be combined with existing models to derive some improved models that can naturally take account of the under-load effect. Some simulations by IZ improved models for test under complex load sequences including multiple overloads and both over/under loads are compared with test results. It is seen that the improvement by IZ concept greatly enhanced the ability of existing models to accommodate complex load interaction effects.

The purpose of this study is concerned with identification of floral type of commercially available honeys and pollen loads. Ikuse's technique was applied to identify the pollen species of honey and pollen loads. Among six kinds of commercially available honeys in Taegu, Korea i.e. Robinia Honey, Brassica Honey, Castanea Honey, Rhododendron Honey, Lespedeza Honey and Multipant Honey, all honeys contained pollens, which were coincident with their trade names given by the apirists, except Lespedeza Honey. The trade name of imported honeys were not given by the plant, from which pollen material and nectar were collected. Among four kinds of these products, pollen was not identified in Clover Honey. A spectrum of honey products added by pollen loads was, of course, wider than simple honey products. The pollen load showed spectrum of pollens including not only those which are specialized for wind pollination, eq. Pinus species and Gramineae, but also contained for insect pollination, eq. rose and leguminous plants.

This study was intended to investigate the characteristics of loads acting on the transmission of agricultural tractors during plowing, rotavating and transporting operations. A survey was conducted to determine working speeds and transmission gears most frequently used for each operations. The transmission loads were measured at the input shaft of the transmission gear box during each operations. Time histories of the measured torque loads were converted into a load spectrum and analyzed with respect to the S-N curve of the shaft material to estimate the partial damages on the transmission. Finally, comparison of the relative damages and severeness of each operation was presented and discussed.

This paper analyze spectrum of vibration-frequencies to reduce noise level of distribution transformer. Using loading back method on same condition of a real load to grasp the effect of core and winding which are caused by the transformer vibration. we were measured the vibration-frequency by varing applied voltage and load current of a transformer. The major cause of a transformer vibration is occured by the harmonic effects, and was identified that the vibration is less influenced by the coil. As the result of this paper, comparing the transformer with some isolated material with the general transformer the transformer with some isolated material could reduce spectral amplitude of vibration-frequencies.

The spent fuel handling tool is used to handle the refuel bundle and treated by hoist rope on the bridge crane. The new developed handling tool of NPP(Nuclear Power Plant) should be conformed the structural stability under earthquake condition.

Acceleration time history (ATH) used in the seismic analysis should envelop a target power spectral density (PSD) function in addition to the design response spectrum in order to have sufficient energy at each frequency for the purpose of ensuring adequate load. Even though design regulations require the ATH used in seismic analysis to meet a target PSD function, the reason that ATHs meet to a target PSD function is not described. Thus, artificial ATHs for high PSD function and artificial ATHs for low PSD function are generated. And then elastic and inelastic single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems are loaded with these artificial time histories as the earthquake load. As a result, linear response and inelastic response of SDOF systems are affected by PSD function.

The diagnosis of mechanical load and of power transmission system failures is usually carried out through mechanical signals such as vibration signals, acoustic emissions, motor speed envelope. If the mechanical load comes from an electrical machine the mechanical failures could be detected previously. Mechanical rotor imbalances and rotor eccentricities are reflected in electric, electromagnetic and mechanical quantities. Therefore, many surveillance schemes apply to the Fourier spectrum of a line current in order to monitor the motor condition. Due to the interaction of the currents and voltages, both these current harmonics are also reflected by a single harmonic component in the frequency spectrum of the electric power. Motor Current Signature Analysis is the usuful technique to assess machine electrical condition.
