Recently, a lot of work and interest have been devoted to the development of multiaxial fatigue parameters for fretting fatigue life prediction. In this study, the fretting fatigue lift and critical location ware estimated and evaluated through the multiaxial fatigue theories in a cylinder-on-flat contact configuration far Cr-Mo steel, SCM420, the material commonly is used in gears of the automobile and rollers of the conveyor. The strain-life curve was obtained from fatigue test for SCM420. The Fretting fatigue life and critical location were estimated through stress distributions, SWT-parameters and FS-parameters obtained from FEA. This paper showed possibility of applying multiaxial fatigue theories to fretting fatigue lift prediction comparing predicted life with experimental results.

This study considers the buckling of orthotropic cylindrical thin shells with material nonhomogeneity in the thickness direction, under torsion, which is a power function of time. The dynamic stability and compatibility equations are obtained first. Applying Galerkin's method then applying Ritz type variational method to these equations and taking the large values of loading parameters into consideration, analytic solutions are obtained for critical parameter values. Using those results, the effects of the periodic and power variations of Young's moduli and density, ratio of Young's moduli variations, loading parameters variations and the power of time in the torsional load expression variations are studied via pertinent computations. It is concluded that all these factors contribute to appreciable effects on the critical parameters of the problem in question.

Presented in this dissertation is a new method of identifying the critical speed of rotor-bearing systems without actually reaching at the critical speed itself. Using the method, it is possible to calculate the critical speed by measuring a series of rotor responses at much lower rotating speeds away from and without reaching at the critical speed of the system. In the course of the procedures illustrated, not only the critical speed but also the damping ratio and the eccentricity of the system can be identified at the same time. Test rotor was tested on the Rotor Dynamics Test Facility at the Korea Institute of Machinery ＆ Materials. Korea, and the theory has been confirmed experimentally. The method can be adopted to monitor changes of the dynamic characteristics of critical rotating machinery before and after overhauls, repairs, exchanges of various parts, or to detect trends or direction of subtle changes in the dynamic characteristic parameters over a long periods of time.

Delayed hydride cracking (DHC) is an important failure mechanism for Zircaloy tubes in the demanding environment of nuclear reactors. The threshold stress intensity factor, $K_{IH}$, and critical hydride length, $l_C$, are important parameters to evaluate DHC. Theoretical models of them are developed for Zircaloy tubes undergoing non-homogenous temperature loading, with new stress distributions ahead of the crack tip and thermal stresses involved. A new stress distribution in the plastic zone ahead of the crack tip is proposed according to the fracture mechanics theory of second-order estimate of plastic zone size. The developed models with fewer fitting parameters are validated with the experimental results for $K_{IH}$ and $l_C$. The research results for radial cracking cases indicate that a better agreement for $K_{IH}$ can be achieved; the negative axial thermal stresses can lessen $K_{IH}$ and enlarge the critical hydride length, so its effect should be considered in the safety evaluation and constraint design for fuel rods; the critical hydride length $l_C$ changes slightly in a certain range of stress intensity factors, which interprets the phenomenon that the DHC velocity varies slowly in the steady crack growth stage. Besides, the sensitivity analysis of model parameters demonstrates that an increase in yield strength of zircaloy will result in a decrease in the critical hydride length $l_C$, and $K_{IH}$ will firstly decrease and then have a trend to increase with the yield strength of Zircaloy; higher fracture strength of hydrided zircaloy will lead to very high values of threshold stress intensity factor and critical hydride length at higher temperatures, which might be the main mechanism of crack arrest for some Zircaloy materials.

The hunting is the natural characteristics of the railway wheelset which is originated from the contact between the conical type wheel profile and rail. The critical speed of rolling-stock is called when the hunting is occurred, and it is closely connected with vehicle stability. The parameters which influence the hunting motion are like wheel profile, primary spring property and wheelset dimension, etc. The studies for these parameters are reported diversely. In this study, we aim to analyze the influence of parameters on hunting with the change of wheel profile produced by wheel wear and material property produce by aging of primary spring. For this, we made a dynamic model for wheelset and vehicle. Using these models, we analyzed the critical speed with the variations of the parameters like as wheel profile and primary spring property and we show the results.

Critical too-Phase flow rates of subcooled water through Short Pipes (L 140039n) with small diameters (D$\leq$7.15 min) have been experimentally investigated for wide ranges of subcooling (0~199$^{\circ}C$) and pressure (0.5~2.0 MPa). To examine the effects of various parameters (i.e., the location of flashing inception, the degree of subcooling, the stagnation temperature and pressure, and the pipe size) on the critical two-phase flow rates of subcooled water through short pipes with small diameters, a total of 135 runs were made for various combinations of test parameters using four different L/D test sections. Experimental results that show effect of various parameters on subcooled critical two phase flow rates are presented in the form of graphs such as the dimensionless mass flux ( $G^{*}$) versus the dimensionless subcooling ( $T_{sub}$$^{*}$) curve. An empirical correlation expressed in terms of a dimensionless subcooling is also obtained for subcooled two-phase flow rates through present test sections. Comparisons between the mass fluxes calculated by present correlation and a total of 755 selected experimental data points of 9 different investigators show that the agreement is fairly good except for very low subcooling data obtained from small L/D (less than 10) orifices.s.s.s.

SFRC보의 휨 거동에 대한 이론적인 해석이 제시되었다. Critical region내의 곡률변화와 균열 양상이 고려되었으며 이를 위해 SFRC의 압축응력-변형도와 특히 SFRC의 인장 최대하중 후 응력-균열 열림관계(stress-crack opening relationship)로 표현된 인장 constitutive모델이 비선형 휨 해석에 이용되었다. 제시된 모델의 해석치는 실험치와 비교할 때 만족스러웠으며 이 모델을 이용, SFRC보의 휨 거동에 미치는 여러 영향들과 위험 단면(critical section)의 거동이 고찰되었다. 또한 단순 관찰과 통계적인 접근을 통해 SFRC보의 휨 거동에 큰 영향을 미치는 변수(parameters)들을 찾아내었다.

One of the most important factors for a proper design of a slender compression member may be the exact determination of the elastic critical load of that member. In the cases of non-prismatic compression member, however, there are times when the exact critical load becomes impossible to determinate if one relies on the neutral equilibrium method or energy principle. Here in this paper, the approximate critical loads of symmetrically or non-symmetrically tapered members are computed by finite element method. The two parameters considered in this numerical analysis are the taper parameter, $\alpha$ and the sectional property parameters, m. The computed results for each sectional property parameter, m are presented in an algebraic equation which agrees with those by F.E.M The algebraic equation can be easily used by structural engineers, who are engaged in structural analysis and design of non-prismatic compression member.

The development of railway vehicles involves the proper selection of design parameters not only to achieve high speed but also to reduce the vibration of the train. In this study an analytical model of a freight car is developed to find the critical speed. The freight car can generate the snake motion of the lateral and yawing motion of the car body, the bogie, and the wheelset. Numerical analysis for the nonlinear equation motions with 17 degrees of freedom showed the running stability and critical speed due to the snake motion. Also, the vibration modes of the freight car was calculated using ADAMS/RAIL, which showed that the critical speed have the yawing modes of the car body and the bogie. Finally this paper shows that the snake motion of the vehicle can be controlled with the modifications of the design parameters.
