The waterhammer occur when the pumps are started or stopped for the operation or tripped due to the power failure, and the hydraulic transients take place as a result of the sudden change in velocity. Several times, the field tests of the waterhammer were carried out for Pangyo booster pumping station. Pangyo pumping station was installed with the booster pumps of 6 sets and the in-line pumps of 2 sets. The in-line pumps are additionally needed to the surge suppression device so that the pumping station acquire the safety and reliability for the pressure surge.

To study mechanical properties of fiberglass reinforced wood-based composite (FRWC), fiberglass with a diameter of $20{\mu}m$ was selected to prepare test specimens. Mechanical properties of fiberglass reinforced wood-based composite were determined by three-point-bending test while its microstructure was characterizes by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that mechanical properties of fiberglass reinforced wood-based composite were superior to that of the wood fiberboard based on the contrasting mechanical curves and the analysis of fracture mechanism. It is believed that the material design with this "sandwich" structure brings a unique buffering capacity of fiberglass into play in the composites. So the specimen did not produce a sudden fracture failure at high level of applied loads because it had a bearing ability. The SEM analysis showed that the working strength of PVAc adhesive was high; under a bearing force, it could properly transfer a load. In addition, glass fiber mesh and wood fiber board combined well.

Pneumatic cylinders are classified into rod-type pneumatic cylinders and rodless pneumatic cylinders depending on the presence of the rod. Rodless cylinders have a constant area and have no deflection. Rodless cylinders are widely used in automatic systems requiring high-speed performance and high-precision transportation. However, the research of the pneumatic cylinder has been focused on the structure and life characteristics. In this research, aging characteristics and shape parameter analysis which are related to the lifetime were investigated. By conducting the lifetime tests with two different materials for the transfer plate, the failure mode and lifetime characteristics were analyzed. By the Anderson-Darling (A-D) verification based on the complete data set, the analysis results of lifetime distribution, shape parameter, and scale parameter were provided.

In order to use PUR/CuO Composites as the sealing materials for ships equipment, this research has been performed. PUR/CuO composites are produced by using ultrasonic waves. The increase of CuO leads to increase in the tensile strength and shore hardness. The cumulative wear volume shows a tendency to increase in proportional to sliding distance. As the CuO particles of these composites indicated, the friction coefficient was slightly increased. The major failure mechanisms were lapping layers, deformation of matrix, plowing, debonding of particles and microcracking by scanning electric microscopy photograph of the wear tested surface.

In this study, a neural network based diagnostic system of a rotating spindle system supported by ball bearings was introduced. In order to create actual failure situations, two exemplary abnormal status were made. Out of several possible data source locations, ten measurement spots were chosen. In order to discriminate multiple abnormal status, a neural network system was introduced using back propagation algorithm updating connecting weight between each nodes. In order to find the optimal structure of the neural network system reducing the information sources, magnitude of the weight of the network was referred. Hinton diagram was used to visually inspect the least sensitive weight connecting between input and hidden layers. Number of input node was reduced from 10 to 7 and prediction rate was increased to 100%.

The technology of preventive maintenance and corrective maintenance is widely applied to ships in order to maintain the good voyageable condition. One of the most important fields of marine engineering is to seek the maximum availability and to solve the stochastic maintenance problem such that the cost for corrective maintenance is minimized. Accordingly, for the purpose of making the most suitable maintenance schedule which minimizes the expected cost function, this paper suggests the method to grasp the failure characteristics by the ship's maintenance data that are collected from the past. And, suggests the method to estimate the optimal maintenance interval by using the dynamic programming and the cumulative hazard rate function attained from the maintenance data.

Eco-robot for collecting recycling products is the machine which collects non-industrial wastes such as cans, PET bottles and etc. to reuse them as recycling resources. This eco-robot is operated in the condition that it should compress and hold various products without knowing their geometric shapes and material properties. For this reason reliability problems like malfunction or failure. comes to emerge, but the reliability test conditions to assess its performance and durability have not been founded yet. Therefore in this research failure mechanism of the eco-robot was analyzed and life test equipment which can reproduce actual usage conditions was developed. The compression levels in the life test were determined by measuring the crushing force acting on test products and Furthermore the test specimens which have equivalent shape and material properties with those of cans and PET bottles were proposed by simulating the deformation characteristics so that the actual compression conditions were set up in the test.

토목 및 건설, 건축 등의 현장에서 많이 사용되는 가설기기들은 기계의 자체적인 기계고장 뿐만 아니라 야외 현장의 환경에 따른 기후의 변화에도 고장이 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 고장들을 사후약방문의 형식으로 고장이 발생하는 경우에만 수리 후 사용한다면 시간적/경제적으로 많은 손실이 있을 것이다. 그러나 가설기기들의 종류별 기기적 특징을 미리 시스템화하여 발생할 수 있는 고장을 사전에 방지하고 예방한다면 불필요한 손실을 미연에 막을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가설기기들과 관련된 각종 빅 데이터를 이용하여 피로도를 예측하여 고장이 발생하기 전에 사전에 예방할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

Learning from the failure of mechanical systems is a necessity, given that it is the understanding of how and why things fail that generates effective redesign. This subsequently enables the technology that surrounds us to become more reliable, safer, and more economical by extending component life and minimizing the wasteful decisions made to replace systems that am either sound for continued operation could be easily repaired. Considerations for cost-effective decision making, so as to promote healthy machinery, equipment, and structures, are discussed in terms of learning from failure analysis, improving via reliability engineering, and achieving longevity through integrated diagnostics.
