Fatigue life prediction of mechanical components is necessary to develop new products, which is very expensive and time-consuming. This paper reviews technologies proposed for computation of dynamic stress in mechanical components. The methods based on multibody dynamics are considering more real operational conditions than other methods. The technology for fatigue life prediction without the prototype for experiment results in cost and time saving. This technology can be applied to design of various mechanical components like carbody.

The need for remanufacturing ships and various mechanical components continues to increase along with environmental problems. Research on remanufacturing is being carried out in various fields, but research on cleaning is quite insufficient. In particular, there is no research on the cleaning-ability of diverse mechanical components. In order to increase the life cycle of mechanical components, remanufacturing must be considered from the step of design. Particularly, it is also very important to evaluate the degree of easiness in cleaning to remove various pollutants generated by long-term use quickly as well as easily. In this study, the degree of easiness in cleaning is defined as cleaning-ability. In fact, remanufacturing components can be easily done only when cleaning-ability is set high from the step of design. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cleaning-ability of ships and various mechanical components. The details of easiness in cleaning are cleaning and drying identification, accessibility to cleaning tools, convenience in cleaning, and convenience in drying. This study presents a quantitative procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability, derived various factors influencing each of the details of easiness and their ranges, and gave scores to the factors according to their ranges. The weight was also calculated for the details of easiness in cleaning and the factors. Lastly, this researcher suggests a scoring procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability quantitatively and the total weight of cleaning-ability.

There are many uncertain parameters associated with vibration components. Their physical parameters, the machining quality of vibration components, and the applied load acting on them are all uncertain. As a result, the natural frequency and the fatigue limits are also uncertain variables. In this paper, we express these parameters of vibration components and the frequency zone of resonance through interval models; this way, the robust reliability of the vibration components is defined. The robust reliability model measures and assesses the reliability of vibration components. The robust reliability of a cantilever beam is evaluated as an example. The results show that this method is reasonable for robust reliability analysis of vibration components because it does not require a large amount of failure data, it avoids the evaluation of the probability density function, and the computation is simple.

The remaining life estimation for the aged components in power plants as well as chemical plants are very important because mechanical properties of the components are degraded with in-service exposure time in high temperatures. Since it is difficult to take specimens from the operating components to evaluate mechanical properties of components, nondestructive techniques are needed to evaluate the degradation. In this study, test materials with several different degradation levels were prepared by isothermal aging heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$. The DC potential drop method and destructive methods such as tensile and fracture toughness were used in order to evaluate the degradation of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steels. In this result, we can see that tensile strength and fracture toughness can be calculated from resistivity and it is possible to evaluate material degradation using DC potential drop method, non-destructive method.

This study employed the perturbation method, the Edgeworth series, the reliability optimization, the reliability sensitivity technique and the robust design to present a practical and effective approach for the robust reliability design of vehicle components with arbitrary distribution parameters on the condition of known first four moments of original random variables. The theoretical formulae of the robust reliability design for vehicle components with arbitrary distribution parameters are obtained. The reliability sensitivity is added to the reliability optimization design model and the robust reliability design is described as a multi-objection optimization. On the condition of known first four moments of original random variables, the respective program can be used to obtain the robust reliability design parameters of vehicle components with arbitrary distribution parameters accurately and quickly.

A nuclear Power Plant is composed of a number of mechanical components. Maintaining the integrity of these components is one of the most critical issues in nuclear industry. In order to evaluate the integrity of these mechanical components, a lot of data are required including inspection data, geometrical data, material properties, etc. Therefore, an effective database system is essential to manage the integrity of nuclear power plant. For this purpose, an internet based virtual reality environment and web database system was proposed. The developed virtual reality environment provides realistic geometrical configurations of mechanical components using VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language). The virtual reality environment was linked with the web database, which can manage the required data for the integrity evaluation. The proposed system is able to share the information regarding the integrity evaluation through internet, and thus, will be suitable for an integrated system for the maintenance of mechanical components.

Power electronic converters generate the harmonic voltage and current, and these harmonics have the harmful effects on the various components. For example, passive components such as capacitor and inductor, transformer, motor and other components are mainly affected in the power electronic system. Thus, the design and manufacturing of the power converters, which have the harmonic-free or mitigation strategies, are required. In particular, the lifetime and durability of these components are main requirement for enhancing the overall stability of the system. So, in this paper, the harmonics-related problems to the neighbouring components and mitigation research trends are presented.

According to the rapid development of science technologies, a life and development cycle of products are getting shorter and structures and functions become more complex so that the reliability requirement of customers is getting greater for components in the products. However, most domestic mechanical components are manufactured by small and medium-sized companies, who are manufacturing in poor economic and technical condition. Because of this, assessment technologies and equipment to predict and guarantee the reliability are very weak. For this reason, it is the fact that many customers neglect the domestic mechanical components which fail to win the reliability. Korean government has been trying to eliminate the problem by establishing 18 reliability assessment centers in 2000 and performing R-Mark certification promotion and constructions of the foundation for reliability assessment to rebuild the reliability on the domestic components and materials. Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials has been designated as a supervising organization for reliability assessment in the machinery filed for 5 years. In this paper, we would like to introduce effective and systematized 12 steps of reliability substantiation test on mechanical components with know-how we achieved during the period.

For one decades, mobile devices components were made with plastic material, but environmental problems have recently replaced them with metal materials such as aluminum. Generally, aluminum components are mostly produced through cutting, but this process has limitations such as productivity and chip recycling. For this reason, many researches are conducted to improve productivity by replacing with the forging press process for manufacturing mobile device components. After forging process, the flash is remained and it is necessary to eliminate the flash from the final shape of components. In this paper, one-sided clearance for blanking aluminum material wes selected for parameter affected to the dimensional precision. Because the clearance is the most important parameter in blanking process. Deriving the clearance of blanking process for high dimensional precision, five level of one-sided clearance is selected and CAE is used to analyze the dimensional precision for each case.
