A local strain approach was applied to an external single and double grooved C-shaped specimen in order to evaluate and predict the fatigue crack initiation life by using low cycle fatigue properties. The low cycle fatigue properties were determined from the strain-controlled fatigue tests using smooth cylindrical axial specimens. Fatigue crack initiation life was evaluated by a life prediction software, FALIPS, based on the local strain approach. The fatigue life was significantly influenced by the mean stress, and SWT parameter represented the fatigue life effectively. The predicted fatigue crack initiation life was then compared to the experimental fatigue life evaluated from the C-shaped fatigue test specimens. A good correlation was found between the experimental and predicted fatigue lives within factors of 2 and 4 for the single and double grooved C-shaped specimens respectively. Also, experimental fatigue life of the double grooved specimen was 10-12 times longer than that of the single grooved specimen.

Most people experience fatigue at some point in their lives, and they say the word ‘fatigue’ in their ordinary conversational speech. The ordinary word is used as a military or engineering term and has been studied in various different disciplines, such as ergonomics, physiology, psychology, medicine, and nursing. In spite of its widespread uses, however, fatigue has not been well defined. The term of fatigue Is thus often used with different meanings and is applied in diverse contexts that had led to a confusion of ideas. In people with cancer, fatigue is reported as a major distress. Despite the importance of fatigue in cancer patients, the phenomena of fatigue is poorly understood. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to analyze the concept of fatigue in people with cancer. The process for the concept analysis was guided by Walker and Avant's conceptual analysis methodology. The identified attributes of fatigue in the present study were subjective feeling, lack of energy, sustenance, and multidimensions. The antecedents were cancer treatment and economic status. The consequences were decreased daily, vocational, leisure, and social activities, uncertainty, and difficulties in adjustment. Symptoms (pain, anorexia, and insomnia) and emotional disturbance were not clear whether they are antecedents or consequences. However, they are related with cancer related fatigue. Even though still in the beginning stage, instruments measuring cancer related fatigue have been developed by some nursing investigators.

실리게이트의 층간에 나노충진제를 삽입하여 합성한 고무-점토 나노복합체에 대해 $70-100^{\circ}C$의 고온상태에서 정적 및 동적시험을 수행하여 기존 고무소재보다 기계적 물성이 우수함을 확인하였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 부품의 취약부위에서 발생하는 최대 그린-라그랑지 변형률을 피로손상변수로 하여 설계 초기단계에서도 짧은 기간에 고무부품의 피로수명을 예측할 수 있는 방법을 개발하여 피로내구성을 평가한 결과, 실제 엔진마운트에 대한 피로시험을 통해 얻어진 피로수명과 예측수명이 비교적 정확하게 예측됨을 확인하였다.

A fatigue damage accumulation model based on the continuum damage mechanics theory was develope(1 where modules decay ratios in tension and shear on used as indicators for damage variables D . In the model, the damage variables are considered to be second-order tensors. Then the maximum principal damage variable, $D^*$ is introduced According to the similarity to the Principal stress, $D^*$ is obtained as the maximum eigen value of damage tensor [D']. Under proportional tension and torsion loadings, fatigue lives were satisfactorily predicted at any combined stress ratios using the present model in which the fatigue characteristics only under uniaxial tension and pure torsion loadings on needed. Fatigue life prediction under uniaxial tension and pure torsion loadings, was performed based on the damage mechanics using boundary element method.

The variable fatigue load is simulated in this study, The stability and the life of the material are analyzed theoretically by the program of Ansys workbench. These results are successfully applied to the practical structures to predict the prevention of fracture and the endurance, The life and the damage on the every part of the fatigue specimen can be predicted. As the available lives are compared for every loading variation, the rainflow and damage matrix results can be helpful in determining the effects of small stress cycles in any loading history. The rainflow and damage matrices illustrate the possible effects of infinite life. The safety and stability of fatigue specimen according to the variable load can be estimated by using the results of this study.

This paper deals with the lifetime prediction of Aircraft Flaperon Joint made of AISI 4130 steel. Reviews are performed on the published damage models at first. And three different damage models are used for predicting the fatigue life of the structure subjected to variable amplitude fatigue loading. These models require no increase in complexity of use, nor do they require additional material property or mission loading information to achieve the improved accuracy. Finally a comparison among the fatigue results is performed. It is observed that the Miner's rule could predict longer life than other cumulative damage models which take into account loads below the endurance limit.

In this paper, the effect of the crack growth length on the plastic zone size at the crack tip and the crack growth lives of the DENT specimen under constant amplitude cyclic loading were studied. The plastic zone size was calculated by nonlinear static method in commercial finite element analysis program, MSC/NASTRAN and the crack growth lives were also calculated by using compliance function considering geometric shape in MSC/FATIGUE. The calculated plastic zone size increased proportional to the crack length. And comparison of calculated plastic zone size and crack growth lives with the experimental results shows a good agreement.

The fatigue analysis and lifetime evaluation are very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability of the rubber components. Fatigue lifetime prediction methodology of the rubber component was proposed by incorporating the finite element analysis and fatigue damage parameter from fatigue test. Finite element analysis of 3D dumbbell specimen and rubber component were performed based on a hyper-elastic material model determined from material test. The Green-Lagrange strain at the critical location determined from the FEM was used for evaluating the fatigue damaged parameter of the natural rubber. Fatigue life of the rubber component are predicted by using the fatigue damage parameter at the critical location. Predicted fatigue lifes of the rubber component agreed fairly well the experimental fatigue lives.

In this study, three models on the installation of automotive additional front bumper guard were designed and the structural analysis was carried out. The additional front bumper models B and C appears to be safer on stability instead of the basic front bumper model A. Model A with a simple structure is shown to have the safe region overall except in the area where the load is applied directly. Models B and C are shown to have the shortest lives at the regions where the bumpers are connected with each other. By comparing with the least fatigue lives at models A, B and C, Model B has the longest life with the best durability.
