Radiation degradation of Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) has been studied by dielectric analysis and dynamic mechanical analysis. It has been observed that dielectric properties are influenced by radiation degradation of PEEK. For radiation degradation of PEEK, dynamic mechanical properties were insensible.

The antenna is mounted on the vehicle and operated, so its components must be able to withstand the shock that may occur while driving. In this study, the stability of antenna mounted on the vehicle is verified through the connection between modal analysis and transient analysis. The shock data used was taken from MIL-STD-810H, METHOD 516.8. As a result of the analysis of antenna, the maximum equivalent stress 169.49MPa and minimum margin of safety 2.31 has occurred on the bracket of antenna. Thus, it was found that the antenna has enough stability during the operation.

This study analyzed the stability of antenna equipped on vehicles by the link of modal analysis and random vibration analysis with the vibration data of MIL-STD-810H, METHOD 514.8. As a result of the random vibration analysis of antenna, the maximum equivalent stress 41.9MPa and minimum margin of safety 8.37 was generated in the bracket of antenna by the vertical direction vibration. Thus, it was found that antenna has enough stability during the operation.

In this paper, the mass optimization of four bar linkages is carried out using genetic algorithms (GA) with single and dual constraints. The single constraint of bending stress and the dual constraints of bending and buckling stresses are imposed. From the movement response of the bar linkage mechanism, the analysis of the mechanism is developed using the combination of kinematics, kinetics, and finite element analysis (FEA). A penalty-based transformation technique is used to convert the constrained problem into an unconstrained one. Lastly, a detailed comparison on the effect of single constraint and of dual constraints is presented.

The main objective of this paper is to design and mechanical strength analysis of UHV(Ultra High Voltage) suspension insulator. One of the important properties required for suspension insulators is mechanical strength under tensile load. The cement and porcelain part are express according to change of pin head type an aspect mechanical stress. These insulators are designed and produced by using the computer analysis of mechanical, electrical and electrical stresses together with the technical know-how accumulated from long years of study into every respect of insulators.

This study is aimed to predict the fatigue life for pitch bearings under combined radial, thrust load and moment. In order to do this, a series of simulation such as bearing load distribution, initial surface stress, subsurface stress and fatigue analysis is needd. Fatigue life for pitch bearing can be predicted by using a bearing's material fatigue property.

Reactor internals are sensitive to dynamic loads such as earthquakes and flow induced vibration. Thus, it is essential to identify the dynamic characteristics to evaluate the seismic integrity of the structures. However, a full-sized system is too large to perform modal experiments, making it difficult to extract data on its modal characteristics. In this research, we constructed a finite element model of the APR1400 reactor internals to identify their modal characteristics. The commercial reactor was selected to reflect the actual boundary conditions. Our FE model was constructed based on scale-similarity analysis and fluid-structure interaction investigations using a fabricated scaled-down model.

The purpose of this study is to study the fluid-dynamic and structural characteristics of the conventional greenhouse and to find possible improvement on the current greenhouse. The greenhouse is required to have enough rigidity of the structure while the installation and reinforcement should be as easy as possible. In this study, the structural stability to the snow load was tested through the computational structure analysis based on the building structure standard, and the wind load was computed by computational fluid-structure interaction analysis. The current analysis can be used as a reference data for a new greenhouse and it will be economically viable by reducing installation and maintenance costs.

This paper presents a thermoelastic analysis of variable thickness plates made of functionally graded materials (FGM) subjected to mechanical and thermal loads. The thermal load is applied to the plate as a temperature difference between the top and bottom surfaces. Temperature distribution in the plate is obtained using the steady-state heat equation. Except for Poisson's ratio, all mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary linearly along the thickness direction based on the volume fractions of ceramic and metal. The plate is resting on an elastic foundation modeled based on the Winkler foundation model. The governing equations are derived based on the third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) and are solved numerically for various boundary conditions using the differential quadrature method (DQM). The effects of various parameters on the stress distribution and deflection of the plate are investigated such as the value of thermal and mechanical loads, volume fractions of ceramic and metal, and the stiffness coefficients of the foundation.

The paper provides a comprehensive procedure for the mechanical and magnetic design of Langevin transducer based on giant magnetostrictive material. The the transducer is designed to work at its second mode of vibration, having high mechanical quality factor and low damping coefficient. The design procedure is based on an analytical model and it is verified by finite-element analysis. Experimental tests based on impedance response analysis in first and second modes are carried out on the prototype. Results confirm the appropriate design of this transducer, demonstrating the highest mechanical quality factor between the resonant transducers in the literature.
