  • In 1992, the first design standard of quake proof bridge was established. However, most bridge structures which were constructed without considering earthquake in former times need performance of quakeproof property. Quakeproof analysis in current bridges, is based on analysis of load base which just has strength over the load of simple structures but is not checked through simple comparison of strength performance of structures so that we would like to check that ADRS method is reasonable or not using ADRS method(Accleration-Displacement Response Spectrum Method), a analysis method based on displacement of object of performance test. As the result of that, the capacity spectrum method can avoid complex dynamic analysis in analysis based on loads and it efficiently applies to design verification with normal checking for quakeproof performance and aimed performance of new structures. However we can not consider effects of high modes and it has problem that does not consider falling of performance in structures by repeated load.

  • The collapsing accidents of pipe greenhouses in the farmhouse have been increased duo to heavy snow load. However, the study on exact structure analysis to prevent the collapse of pipe greenhouses is rare and the damage of the farmhouse is annually repeated. The method of existing structure analysis is basically made of linear elastic analysis based on the micro displacement. But the actual stiffness of the pipe greenhouse is significantly weaker than the stiffness of buildings and the load acting on the greenhouses gets to become relatively bigger. It means that the geometry shape of greenhouses changes so that the relation of strain-displacement gets to indicate a nonlinear behavior. Therefore, this study is performed to evaluate the structural safety so as to prevent the collapse of pipe greenhouses, which are the single-span greenhouse(farmhouse guidance shape, G) and multi-span greenhouse(farmhouse supply shape, 1-2W), by performing the large-displacement analysis considering nonlinear effects.

  • With an increasing aging population and improved standards of living, more attention has been paid to health. Although walking exercise is known as an aerobic exercise, it imposes repeated and continuous impacts on the joints of the lower extremities. Therefore, when overweight gives a burden to the lower extremity or there is a joint disease, exercise limit occurs. The articular cartilage, weakened with age, also makes it difficult for the elderly to perform walking exercises. Accordingly, this study conducted a comparative analysis between regular walking using only the lower extremity and Nordic walking, which has been known as stable. For analysis, electromyography (EMG) was performed and the ground reaction force of the upper and lower extremities were measured in the same exercise. Integrated EMG (iEMG) revealed that the upper extremity muscles were more active in Nordic walking than in regular walking, where lower extremity muscles were relatively more inactive. In addition, when EMG measurements were performed at each measurement point during walking exercise, the pattern was different. Nevertheless, the result was the same as in iEMG. The load that occurs in each exercise was measured using the ground reaction force system. As a result, Nordic walking had a lower load than regular walking. Therefore, it was found that Nordic walking minimized the load on the lower extremities owing to the effect of whole-body exercise and was a safer and more efficient exercise method.

  • To make large slopes or rock structures stable, supporting systems, such as anchor bolt, rock bolt and spiral bolt which are developed recently, are commonly used. In this study, in-situ pull-out tests were carried out to compare the characteristics of rock bolt that is most widely used with ones of spiral bolt that is newly developed. Re-pull-out test for the spiral bolt in which loading and unloading cycles are repeated three times showed that the maximum pull-out load is almost constant irrespective of the number of loading cycles, which may be due to no failure between spiral bolt and filler. On the other hand, the maximum pull-out load for the conventional rock bolt decreases with the number of loading cycles due to the partial failure between rock bolt and filler.

  • This study analyzes a load balancing technique using Round Robin Algorithm. The study uses two software packages (Packet Capture and Round Robin Test Package) to check packet volume from Virtual Network structure (data generator, virtual server, Server1,2,3), and finds out traffic distribution toward Server1,2 and 3. The functions of implemented Round Robin Load Balancing Monitoring System include round robin testing, system monitoring, and graphical indication of data transmission and packet volume. As the result of the study shows, Round Robin Algorithm allows servers to ensure definite traffic distribution, unless incoming data loads differ much. Although error levels are high in some cases, they were eventually alleviated by repeated tests for a long period of time.

  • When spring of the suspension is exerted by an external load, a car should be designed to prevent predictable damages and designed for a ride comfort. We used experiments design to design VON-MISES STRESS and K, a constant, of spring of suspension which is installed in a car as a goal level. We analyzed the result from Edison's Elastic - Plastic Analysis SW(CSD_EPLAST) by setting D, d, n as external diameter of coil, internal diameter of coil, the number of total coil respectively. The experiment design let the outcome be as Full-second order by using Box-Behnken which is one of response surface methods. Experimented and analyzed results based on the established experiments design, We found out design parameter which has desired VON-MISES STRESS and the constant K. Additionally, we predicted life time of when the external load was exerted by repeated load by using fatigue equation, and verification of plastic deformation has also been made. Additionally we interpreted a model, which is formed by optimized design parameter, with linear analysis and non-linear analysis, at the same time we also analyzed plastic deformation with the values from the both models. Finally, we predicted fatigue life of optimized model by using fatigue estimation theory and also evaluated a ride comfort with oscillation analysis.

  • In this study, an optimal stiffness model of the C-frame, which was supporting the mold and tool load, was proposed to obtain quality self-piercing riveting (SPR) joining. First, the load path acting on the C-frame structure was identified using topology optimization. Then, a final suggested model was proposed based on the load path results. Stiffness and strength analyses were performed for a rivet pressing force of 7.3 [t] to compare the design performance of the final proposed model with that of the initial model. Moreover, to examine the reliability of continuous and repeated processes, vibration analysis was performed and the dynamic stiffness of the final proposed model was reviewed. Additionally, fatigue analysis was performed to ascertain the fatigue characteristics due to simple repetitive loading. Finally, stiffness test was performed for the final proposed model to verify the analysis results. The obtained results differed from the analysis result by 2.9%. Consequently, the performance of the final proposed model was superior to that of the initial model with respect to not only the SPR fastening quality but also the reliability of continuous and repetitive processes.

  • In the study herein, the fatigue test was conducted on the fillet welds of the load carrying cruciform joint, which is frequently used in the steel structures such as bridges, ships, etc. In addition, the fatigue strength was analyzed with respect to the different post-weld treatment. The treatment methods used include Toe Grinding, TIG Dressing, and Weld Profiling. The fatigue test was under constant amplitude with repeated load for these test specimens. In the load carrying full penetration fillet welded joints, regardless the conduction of the post-weld treatment or not, they all secured the fatigue strength of category "F", which exceeds the fatigue design specifications of BS Code. In the comparison of the fatigue strength upon the post-weld treatment, the fatigue strength tends to increase according to the order: Toe Grinding, TIG Dressing, and Weld Profiling.

  • Most of machines and structures contain the elements which contact each other directly. When these elements subjected to vibration or repeated load, local relative movement occurs between the elements in contact which results in, a kind of wear. In order to know the factors which govern fretting, we have to analyze the phenomenon of microslip which causes fretting by using a general and efficient method from a viewpoint of contact mechanics. Based on the results of analysis, it is necessary to propose the way of minizing fretting which is one of the most significant surface failure. In this report, a general and efficient algorithm is applied to analyze the contact problem of the bolted joint, which is one of the typical elements damaged by fretting, with ratios of plate thickness, the ratios of Young's moduli, the ratios of the plate thickness to bolt radius varied. Finally, the ways of minizing fretting for the boked joint are suggested.

  • The rail surface defects which are generated on repeated rolling contact fatigue are getting increased according to high speed, high density, and minimum weight. In addition, Increasing noise and vibration are affected by these also impact load generated as well. Because of this phenomenon, more serious and critical damages were occurred. In fact, in order to control them, the rail grinding were conducted. However, there are not enough researches to make an criteria of generating optimal rail grinding amount in Korea. This study evaluated how depth of hardening on rail surface is formed and suggested optimal rail grinding amount by RCF(rolling contact fatigue) test with generated contact pressure between KTX wheel and UIC60 rail by applying FEM analysis. Therefore, the amount was generated approximately 0.2mm/20MGT to maintain integrity of rail surface by getting rid of depth of hardening on rail according to rail accumulated passing tonnage.
