Finite element analysis model is suggested for analysis of milli-forming process, which forms milli-size products. Since the size of workpiece in a milli-forming process ranges from a few hundred micrometers to a few millimeters, microstructural changes such as the growth of micro-voids and the development of preferred orientation in a grain become crucial factors for the success of milli-forming. This analysis model incorporates anisotropy from deformation torture and deterioration of mechanical properties due to the growth of micro-voids. Applications of the proposed modeling to milli-forming are given and the results are carefully examined to understand the deformation characteristics such as texture development and damage evolution during extrusion/drawing of a milli-bar.

Shotcrete needs the enough durability without deterioration for life time. But shotcrete is being deteriorated according to aging like concrete by internal causes whithin itself and by external causes which can be physical, chemical, or mechanical. Durable shotcrete can be made by incresing the cement content, adding chemical and mineral admixtures and so on. So, in this study, chloride ion penetration test, freeze and thaw test, neutralization test were conducted to examine the durability characteristice of shotcrete with mineral admixtures such as silica fume, blast-furnace slag and fly ash. These results indicate that shotcrete with silica fume is durable. Therefore, the present study provides a firm base to make high performance shtcrete.

The influence of elevated temperatures on the mechanical properties of concrete is important for fire-resistance studies and also for understanding the behavior of containment vessel, such as nuclear reactor pressure vessels, during service and ultimate condition. The present study is to clarify the damage/deterioration of concrete structures that are subjected to high temperature exposure. To this end, comprehensive experiments are conducted. The major test variables are the peak temperatures, rate of temperature increase, and sustained duration at peak temperature. The results include weight loss residual compressive strength and stress-strain curve. From those results, residua compressive strength formula and stress-strain relationship are proposed.

The deterioration of concrete structure due to corrosion of the reinforcement has created big financial losses on the overall industries. The volume expansion of the corrosion products causes internal pressure to concrete wall around reinforcing bar. If the maximum principal stress induced by internal pressure exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete at any point of time, a crack forms at any point of material. Therefore, in terms of life assessment of concrete structure, it is very important to predict the amount of corrosion products which induces initial concrete cracking. With this objective, this paper proposes the critical amount of corrosion products at interface between reinforcement and concrete using finite element analysis. If an actual survey of corrosion rates could be made, the model might supply information for condition assessment of existing concrete structure. As the mechanical properties of corrosion product and instantaneous geometry of corroded steel are considered in the analysis, the value obtained will be more realistic.

The mechanical integrity of generator stator windings is one of the critical point because the electric power is generated and conducted to power system through these windings. To cool down the heat emitted from generator winding during its operation, a majority of generators use de-mineralized water characterized by high cooling efficiency. Contrary to such the excellent cooling efficiency, however, the damaged bar insulations attributed to the absorption of cooling water in the generator stator winding lead to highly time- and cost consuming efforts as well as to service deterioration due to unexpected forced outage of generator. It is described that the new design of water absorption sensor using cross capacitance for generator in power plant in order to increase the reliability of water absorption diagnostics for generator stator bar insulation.

In recent years, research to machine large-surface micro-features has become important because of the light guide panel of a large-scale liquid crystal display and the bipolar plate of a high-capacity proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this study, in order to realize the systematic design technology and performance improvements of an ultra-precision machine for machining the large-surface micro-features, a structural characteristic analysis was performed using its virtual prototype. The prototype consisted of gantry-type frame, hydrostatic feed mechanisms, linear motors, brushless DC servo motor, counterbalance mechanism, and so on. The loop stiffness was estimated from the relative displacement between the tool post and C-axis table, which was caused by a cutting force. Especially, the causes of structural stiffness deterioration were identified through the structural deformation analysis of sub-models.

The goal of this paper is to introduce two methods to determine a model for the accelerated factor equation for pneumatic cylinder according to the Black equation shape. The loads consist of working pressure and temperature and we adjust these two parameters to reduce the test time but keeping the true behavior of deterioration. The first part will introduce a method using accelerated factor coming from experimental results to determine the coefficient of the Black equation by the method of the least square theory. The second part will introduce another method based on various conditions of test with the assumption that the effect of temperature and the effect of pressure on the life of pneumatic cylinder are independent. In these two cases, the results are the unknown coefficients of the Black equation.

The first Mitral Commissurotomy was performed for tight mitral stenosis on March 1957. The patient was at that time 22-year-old male, student. The longest follow 9p for 22 years and 8 months has been obtained. During the follow up period, late deterioration due to restenosis developed 4 years after initial good result and reoperation was succeeded by transventricular Mitral Valvotomy with Tubb`s ilator on April 1964. The possible cause of restenosis was attributed to recurrent rheumatic activity. After more than 13 years long-good life following 2nd operation, Endocarditis such as episode of high fever & chill intermittently followed by mild fever and night sweat, I t. tibial artery embolization and rupture of aortic cusp. At present, patient complained of no subjective symptom, enjoying ordinary life {NYHA II]. Blood pressure has been 110/50-60 mmHg, trivial diastolic murmur at apex and moderate degree of mechanical murmur on diastole at Erb`s rea. Neither signs of RVH for mitral stenosis nor sign of LVH. ST-T change for aortic regurgitation appeared yet during last 2 yrs. The patient`s are for prevention of Rheumatic activity and development of endocarditis is important for obtaining the better long-term result.

The vector control technique using low-resolution Hall-effect sensors has been widely used especially in consumer electronics. Due to electrical and/or mechanical unevenness related to binary-type Hall sensors, the calculated or estimated position information has discontinuities so called bumps, which causes the deterioration of vector control performance. In order to obtain a linearly changing position signal from low-precision Hall-effect sensors, this paper proposes a simple bumps in position signal removal algorithm that consists of a first-order observer with low-pass filtering scheme. The proposed algorithm has the feature of no needs for system parameters and additional estimation processes. The validity of the proposed method is verified through simulation and experimental results.
