In recent years, many research works have been carried out in order to obtain a more controlled durability and long-term performance of concrete structures in chloride containing environments. In particular, the development of new procedures for probability-based durability analysis/design has proved to be very valuable. Although there is still a lack of relevant data, this approach has been successfully applied to some new concrete structures. In this paper, the equation used for modelling of the chloride penetration was based on Fick's Second Law of Diffusion in combination with a time dependent diffusion coefficient. The probability analysis of the durability performance was performed by use of a Monte Carlo Simulation. The procedure was applied to an example based on limited data gathered in this country. The influences of each parameter on the durability of concrete structures are studied and some comments for durability design are given. The new procedure may be very useful in designing an important concrete structures in chloride containing environments. Also it may help to predict the service life of concrete structures under a given probability of failure.

In this study, an extensive literature review has been conducted on the material characterization of UHPC and its potential for large-scale field applicability. The successful production of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) depends on its material ingredients and mixture proportioning, which leads to denser and relatively more homogenous particle packing. A database was compiled from various research and field studies around the world on the mechanical and durability performance of UHPC. It is shown that UHPC provides a viable and long-term solution for improved sustainable construction owing to its ultrahigh strength properties, improved fatigue behavior and very low porosity, leading to excellent resistance against aggressive environments. The literature review revealed that the curing regimes and fiber dosage are the main factors that control the mechanical and durability properties of UHPC. Currently, the applications of UHPC in construction are very limited due to its higher initial cost, lack of contractor experience and the absence of widely accepted design provisions. However, sustained research progress in producing UHPC using locally available materials under normal curing conditions should reduce its material cost. Current challenges regarding the implementation of UHPC in full-scale structures are highlighted. This study strives to assist engineers, consultants, contractors and other construction industry stakeholders to better understand the unique characteristics and capabilities of UHPC, which should demystify this resilient and sustainable construction material.

Generally, the high performance concrete of drying cracking and autogenous shrinkage are tend to be increased. In the previous study, it was found that the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent was more effective than the separtely using method of that. This study is to investigated the durability of high performance concrete using expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent. Test results showed that the high performance concrete using expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent had very good not only the durability performance such as salt injury, carbonation, resistance to freezing-thawing and permeability but also the resistance to shrinkage.

Nanotechnology, the science of manipulating matter at the nanoscale, offers remarkable opportunities for innovation across various fields. Nanomaterials, which form the cornerstone of advanced materials, drive forward new ideas and groundbreaking applications. In the textile industry, traditional antibacterial and antifungal garments are typically treated with chemical compounds to inhibit bacterial growth. However, these treatments often lack durability, losing effectiveness after multiple washes. To address this limitation, the application of green nanotechnology in developing high-performance textiles emerges as a promising solution. This study explores the integration of nanocomposites into the polymer layers of footballs to enhance their stability and performance. By embedding nanoparticles within the polymer matrix, the durability and resilience of the footballs are significantly improved, leading to better control and performance on the field. This innovative approach not only extends the lifespan of the footballs but also provides economic advantages by reducing the frequency of replacements. Additionally, the enhanced stability contributes to a more consistent and reliable playing experience, promoting improved safety and performance for athletes.

The evaluation of durability performance in Virtual Testing Laboratory(VTL) is a new concept of vehicle design, which can reduce the automotive design period and cost. In this study, the multibody dynamics model of a car is built with a reverse engineering design. Hard points and masses of components are measured by a surface scanning device and imported into CAD system. In order to simulate the non-linear dynamic behavior of force elements such as dampers and bushes, components and materials are tested with specialized test equipments. An optimized numerical model for the damping behavior is used and the hysteresis of bush rubber is considered in the simulation. Loads of components are calculated in VTL and used in the evaluation of durability performance. In order to verify simulation results, loads of components in the vehicle are measured and durability tests are performed.

본 연구는 자연형 경관석 GFRC를 대상으로 성능기준을 설정하기 위해 국내 외 성능관련 문헌 및 사례 등의 고찰을 통해 요구성능인 재료성능, 구조안전성능, 내구성능, 경관성능의 항목을 40인의 전문가 설문을 통해 선정하였고, 검증된 항목 및 성능기준을 제안하였다. 전문가 설문을 통해 요구 성능 중 재료성능(유리섬유 함유율, 기건비중), 구조안전성능(휨강도, 압축강도) 그리고 내구성능(균열, 내부식성), 경관성능(질감, 백화)을 각각 선정하였다. 기준이 존재하는 재료성능과 구조안전성능의 경우, 시험을 거쳐 기존 기준사례와 비교하여 최종 성능평가기준을 제시하였으며, 기준이 존재하지 않은 내구성능과 경관성능은 기 시공된 인공폭포 등의 경관조형물을 대상으로 현지조사를 통해 직접 측정하여 검증하였다. 본 연구에서는 재료성능, 구조안전성능, 내구성능, 경관성능 등 자연형 경관석 GFRC의 재료 및 시공 후 평가 가능한 항목에 대한 성능기준을 제안하였으나, 추후 시공사례지에 대한 지속적인 모니터링을 통해 최근에 대두되고 있는 친환경적이고, 생태적인 성능기준에 관한 후속 연구가 필요하다.

The concrete structures designed and constructed by conventional design concept based on structural performance consideration show sometimes serious durability problem when the structures are exposed to aggressive environment. Because present design system focuses on the structure safety and considers durability indirectly by the concrete mix design and cover depth, the durability of concrete structure cannot be ensured. As the first step to develope the durability design for concrete structure, durability index which represents internal concrete resistance and environment index which represents external environmental exposure are derived quantitatively. In the next step, the durability design system is developed by checking durability limit state with computed two indexes under service life condition by considering of the reliability of structure. Finally, the proposed system is verified with a model problem.

Purpose: Recently, Issues on security for vehicles are getting increased all around the world. Especially, hood panel needs to be thinner for the protection of pedestrians. But thinner panel makes durability get worse. So, it is needed to satisfy both of them. Methods: Durability effectiveness will be studied because properties and assembly allowance of over-slam bumper mostly affects durability of hood panel. Overlap of over-slam bumper can be made in production line and it can affect durability of spot welding in hood inner panel. Daguchi method is used to catch the condition in which load gets smaller and location, hardness and quantity of overlap are selected to be factors. Durability effectiveness is analyzed with the factors. Result: the mechanism that affects on spot welding is identified. The test was conducted in both open/close and driving condition and the relation between both conditions is analyzed. Conclusion: The test contributed to durability of hood panel with optimization of over-slam bumper.
