재료의 피로 파괴과정은 균열의 발생과 전파 및 성장의 과정을 거쳐 마침내 결정적 균열의 크기가 일정한도를 넘어서면 재료의 파괴가 일어난다. 이 때까지의 시간, 즉 피로 수명이 역정규분포를 따를 때 재료의 수명과 스트레스 수준과 관계를 나타 내는 S-N곡선에 대한 대수선형모형(log-linear model)을 제시하고, 이 모형하에서 피로수명시험에 대한 통계적 최적시험설계방법을 찾는다. 통계적 최적여부에 대한 판단기준으로 설계 스트레스 수준하의 특정 시점에서의 신뢰도에 대한 최우추정량의 점근분산을 최소화하는 방법을 사용하였다.

산업의 발달과 더불어 수송기기를 포함한 각종 구조물의 경량화에 따라 피로파괴에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 과거에는 피로균열생성과 피로균열전파를 구분하지 않는 S-N (stress-cycles to failure) 피로 개념을 이용하여 구조재의 피로 거동을 이해하고자 하였다. 그러나 최근에는 모든 구조물에는 균열이 존재한다는 가정에서 시작된 파괴역학(fracture mechanics)에 기초한 피로균열성장 개념을 이용하여 피로에 대한 저항성이 큰 구조재를 개발하고 있으며, 구조물의 피로수명을 예측하고 있다. 본 발표에서는 미세조직, 인장특성, 용접이나 부식 환경 등이 금속의 피로 및 피로균열성장(fatigue crack propagation)에 미치는 영향에 대한 논하고자 한다.

Studies on visual fatigues were activated after VDTs were rapidly introduced into the office works in 1980s. Various measurement methods and its measures were developed from those studies. Early studies frequently used simple measures such as near point of accommodation, near point of vergence, and CFF. Current researches focus on dark focus, dark vergence, and VEP which have a good relevance to the visual fatigues. In spite of the merit they also have some limits and disagreements. This survey summarizes the measures, measurement methods and relevant researches. Finally several topics are proposed for the future researches in Korea.

Most of the ship structures and offshore structures are constructed through the welding and they are always subjected to variable loads. In this study, fatigue and stress concentration of the various types of welding connections due to the variable loads are investigated by using numerical approach, and comparisons between numerical analysis and experiments are performed. Fillet weld, full penetration weld and partial penetration weld characteristics are studied by using parameters such as penetration length, welding leg length, size and penetration angle. Based on this study, it is suggested that the fillet welding can be replaced with the penetration welding in some cases. The results of this study can be used as guidelines for actual welding problems in the shipyards.

The $Sr_{0.7}Bi_{2.3}Ta_2O_9$(SBT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode(Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si) using RF magnetron sputtering method. The structural and electric properties of SBT capacitors were influenced with annealing atmosphere. In the XRD pattern, the SBT thin films in all annealing atmosphere had (105) orientation. In the SEM images, Bi-layered perovskite phase was crystallized in all annealing atmosphere and grains largely grew in oxygen annealing atmosphere. The maximum remanent polarization and the coercive electric field in oxygen annealing atmosphere are $12.40{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 48kV/cm respectively. The dielectric constant and leakage current density annealing in oxygen atmosphere are 340 and $6.81{\times}10^{-10}A/cm^2$ respectively. The fatigue characteristics of SBT capacitors did not change up to $10^{10}$ switching cycles.

This paper presents a mooring design procedure for a floating offshore wind turbine. Offshore environmental data for Jeju are taken from KHOA (Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Administration) and used for the environmental conditions in numerical analyses. A semi-submersible-type floating wind system with a 5-MW-class wind turbine studied by the DeepCwind Consortium is applied. Catenary mooring with a studless chain is chosen as the mooring system. Design deliverables such as the nominal sizes of chain and length of the mooring line are decided by considering the long-term prediction of the breaking strength of the mooring lines where a 100-year return period is used. The designed mooring system is verified using a fatigue calculation based on rain-flow cycle counting, an S-N curve, and a Miner's damage summation of rule. The mooring tension process is obtained from time-domain motion analyses using ANSYS/AQWA.

The object of this study is to investigate influences of supplied lubricant quantities on spur gear's pitting life. Pitting is a sort of contact fatigue failures and made by a repetitive load. Basically, pitting is difficult to predict its life by an analysis due to many factors to be considered about tribology problems. In this paper, pitting life was proved by experiment using two roller machine. For a contact fatigue test, operating circumstances should be considered. During the test, temperature and lubricant quantities are considered and to investigate an influence of lubricant quantities, a comparison between optimally enough and not enough lubricant quantity was implemented.

This study derives load characteristics and analyzes the safety of plowshares operating in dry fields. We mounted a three-blade, reversible plow on a 23.7 kW tractor and measured the plow's tractive force as well as the torque from the engine output shaft on the rear axle under various working speeds (L4, M1, M2, M3). We chose a Korean test site of Seomyeon, Chuncheon with sandy soil texture, as determined using the USDA method. We constructed the load spectrum for torque and tractive force using measured data and derived the fatigue life of the plowshare from a stress-cycle (S-N) curve of the plow material. Our results show that the M3 gear maximizes the driving shaft torque loads and, applying the tractive force load spectrum, creates a cumulative damage sum of $4.14{\times}10^{-5}$. Considering sampling time, we estimate a fatigue life of 805 hours while using the M3 gear. When using the other working speeds, however, all of the stress levels fell within the endurance limits and, therefore, our model predicts infinite plowshare lifetimes. For this analysis, we used a yield strength of 1,079 MPa for the plowshare and static safety factors, analyzed using the maximum stress, between 6.83 and 8.63 under each working speed.

Objectives: To compare the flexural cyclic fatigue resistance and the length of the fractured segments (FLs) of recently introduced M-Pro rotary files with that of RaCe rotary files in curved canals and to evaluate the fracture surface by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Materials and Methods: Thirty-six endodontic files with the same tip size and taper (size 25, 0.06 taper) were used. The samples were classified into 2 groups (n = 18): the M-Pro group (M-Pro IMD) and the RaCe group (FKG). A custom-made simulated canal model was fabricated to evaluate the total number of cycles to failure and the FL. SEM was used to examine the fracture surfaces of the fragmented segments. The data were statistically analyzed and comparisons between the 2 groups for normally distributed numerical variables were carried out using the independent Student's t-test. A p value less than 0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. Results: The M-Pro group showed significantly higher resistance to flexural cyclic fatigue than the RaCe group (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the FLs between the 2 groups (p ≥ 0.05). Conclusions: Thermal treatment of nickel-titanium instruments can improve the flexural cyclic fatigue resistance of rotary endodontic files, and the M-Pro rotary system seems to be a promising rotary endodontic file.

To check technical improvement in the soundness and strength of 12% Cr steel rotor, a 25 tons of rotor with 65 tons of ingot was made in real size and was cut to pieces to take test samples, and the various mechanical tests such as impact, tensile, creep, and fatigue were carried out. The strengths are compared with those of 1% Cr-Mo-V rotor of same size. Microstructures of the samples are examined and reviewed. The results can be summarized as follows. 1) Fracture appearance transition temperatures are 80.deg. C at the center part and 60.deg. C near surface of 12% Cr rotor, and 8.deg. C near surface of 1% Cr-Mo-V rotor. 2) Comparative rapid softening occurs at higher temperatures above 600.deg. C for 12% Cr steel and 550.deg. C for 1% Cr-Mo-V steel in tension tests. 3) Fatigue crack propagation rate of 12% Cr steel is almost same as that of 1% Cr-Mo-V steel at the same corresponding surface part of the rotors. The crack growth rate of center part of 12% Cr rotor is faster than near surface part of the rotor, and the crack growth rate at the load condition of R=0.04 is slower than that of the load condition of R=0.5 for both 12% Cr steel and 1% Cr-Mo-V steel. 4) Crack growth rate of radial direction near surface of 12% Cr rotor is faster than that of transverse direction at the same part because of the difference in residual stresses. 5) Both creep and fatigue strengths of 12% Cr steel are superior to those of 1% Cr-Mo-V steel and the difference is thought the effect of climb and glide controlled creep by solid solution of alloying elements and dispersion of carbides.
