Friction energy dissipative devices have been increasingly implemented as structural seismic damage protecting systems due to their excellent seismic energy dissipating capacity and high stiffness. This study develops rotational friction energy dissipative devices and verifies experimentally their cyclic response. Based on the understanding of the differences between the traditional linear-motion friction behavior and the rotational friction behavior, the configuration of the frictional surface was determined by investigating the characteristics of the micro-friction behavior. The friction surface suggested in this paper consists of brake-lining pads and stainless steel sheets and is normally stressed by high-strength bolts. Based upon these frictional characteristics of the selected interface, the rotational friction energy dissipative devices were developed. Bolt torque-bearing force tests, rotational friction tests of the suggested friction interfaces were carried out to identify their frictional behavior. Test results show that the bearing force is almost linearly proportional to the applied bolt torque and presents stable cyclic response regardless of the experimental parameters selected this testing program. Finally, cyclic tests of the rotational friction energy dissipative devices were performed to find out their structural characteristics and to confirm their stable cyclic response. The developed friction energy dissipative devices present very stable cyclic response and meet the requirements for displacement-dependent energy dissipative devices prescribed in ASCE/SEI 7-10.

To evaluate the development of the microstructure and mechanical properties on surface modified and post-heat-treated Inconel 718 alloy, this study was carried out. A friction stir process as a surface modification method was employed,and overlap welded Inconel 718 alloy as an experimental material was selected. The friction stir process was carried out ata tool rotation speed of 200 rpm and tool down force of 19.6-39.2kN; post-heat-treatment with two steps was carried out at720oC for 8h and 620oC for 6h in vacuum. To prevent the surface oxidation of the specimen, the method of using argongas as shielding was utilized during the friction stir process. As a result, applying the friction stir process was effective todevelop the grain refinement accompanied by dynamic recrystallization, which resulted in enhanced mechanical properties ascompared to the overlap welded material. Furthermore, the post-heat-treatment after the friction stir process accelerated theformation of precipitates, such as gamma prime (γ') and MC carbides, which led to the significant improvement of mechanicalproperties. Consequently, the microhardness, yield, and tensile strengths of the post-heat-treated material were increased morethan 110%, 124% and 85%, respectively, relative to the overlap welded material. This study systematically examined therelationship between precipitates and mechanical properties.

In this study, the effect of interface friction coefficient about interfacial crack of bimaterials are discussed. The fracture parameters are analyzed by finite element method using ANSYS. With increasing the interface friction coefficient, normal crack opening displacements and normal stress distributions are analyzed. In this case with surface contact in interface crack, the energy release rates decreases with interface friction coefficient increasing. Increase in the friction coefficient of the crack surface are tend to suppressing for the initiation of interfacial crack. In this case with surface non-contact, the energy release rates are constant with interface friction coefficient increasing, and so the friction coefficient are not related with the fracture parameter.

A5J32-T4 and A5052-H32 dissimilar aluminum alloy plates with thickness of 1.6 and 1.5 mm were welded by friction stir lap welding (FSLW). The FSLW were studied using different probe length tool and various welding conditions which is rotation speed of 1000, 1500 rpm and welding speed of 100 to 600 mm/min and material arrangement, respectively. The effects of plunge depth of tool and welding conditions on tensile properties and weld nugget formation. The results showed that three type nugget shapes such as hooking, void, sound have been observed with revolutionary pitch. This plunge depth and material arrangement were found to effect on the void and hooking for- mation, which in turn significantly influenced the mechanical properties. The maximum joint efficiency of the FSLWed plates was about 90% compared to base metal, A5052-H32 when the A5052-H32 was positioned upper plate and plunge depth was positioned at near interface between upper and lower plates.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to eliminate the noise of the vehicle after measuring the friction noise obtained from the NCPX (Noble Close ProXimity) method. The pure friction noise between the tire and road pavement could be determined from filtering the compositeness of sound and the influence of the vehicle noise. METHODS: The noise magnitude could be determined by analyzing the sound pressure level (SPL) and sound power level (PWL) along with the noise frequency of a FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis as well as CPB (Constant Percentage Bandwidth) analysis. RESULTS: When the test for measuring the friction noise originated somewhere between tire and road pavement is performed with NCPX method, it must be fulfilled by attaching the surface microphone near the tire. In this condition, the surface microphone can measure the friction noise occurred at between tire and pavement, the chassis noise from the engine and power transfer units, the fluctuating aerodynamic noise, and the turbulence noise directly affected to the surface microphone. By using the NCPX method, the noise occurred at the vehicle must be eliminated for measuring the friction noise between tire and pavement from the traffic noise. CONCLUSIONS: The vehicle's testing engine noise depends on the vehicle and road types. The effect of vehicle's engine noise is less than the friction noise occurred at between tire and pavement at less than 1% effect.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this study is to develop a method for distribution between superelevation and side friction factor by increasing design speed. METHODS: First of all, a method for distribution between superelevation and side friction factor and a theory for the functional formula of side friction factor in compliance with horizontal radius applied in South Korea and the United States are considered. Especially, design speed of 140km/h and numerical value of design elements are applied to the theory for the functional formula of side friction factor in AASHTO's methods. Also, the anxiety EEG upon running speed is measured to reflect ergonomic characteristics through field experiments at seven curve sections of the West Coast Freeway, and this data is applied to graph for the functional formula of side friction factor. RESULTS : Matching side friction factor against the anxiety EEG, the results that a critical points of driver's anxiety EEG sharply increase locate under existing parabola are figured out. CONCLUSIONS : Therefore, we could get a new type of the functional formula that driver's driving comfortability is guaranteed if the existing the functional formula of side friction factor goes down under boundary of the critical points of the anxiety EEG.

The main contributors to the friction in modern internal combustion engines were identified at the top ring around the top dead center of the stroke. In this study, variations of the friction force between piston ring and cylinder liner were varied with piston speed, normal load and oil temperature as well as the properties of the ring materials were investigated experimentally. Their frictional behaviors when sliding against the steel cylinder bore materials lubricated with 10W-30 oil for a commercial medium speed diesel engine were investigated using a Pin-On-Disk tribotester. The results show that the hardness of ring has less effect on the friction force in comparison to the piston speed, normal load and oil temperature. And friction force is lower with harder metals.

With increasing use of SUH35/SUH3 dissimilar materials for automotive engine valves, it is required that stress singularities under residual stress on an interface for friction welded dissimilar materials analyzed to establish strength evaluation. The stress singularity index() and stress singularity factor( ) were calculated by using the results of stress analysis considering residual stress and loads.

This paper suggested that the strength evaluation by using the stress singularity factors as fracture parameters, considering the stress singularity on an interface edge of friction welded dissimilar materials will be useful.

This study proposed simply design procedure of a single degree of freedom (SDOF) structure equipped with friction dampers. General method is suggested in order to reduce the structural seismic response by using friction dampers. The analysis model was transformed into an equivalent mass-spring-dashpot system by approximating nonlinear friction damping force with equivalent viscous damping force. A closed form solution for dynamic amplification factor (DAF) for steady-state response was derived by the energy balance equation. The equivalent damping ratio was defined by using DAF at natural frequency. The transfer function between input harmonic excitation and output structural response was obtained from the DAF, and the response reduction factor of the root mean square (RMS) for displacements without and with friction dampers was analytically determined. Using the proposed procedure the friction force required for satisfying given target response reduction factor was obtained. Mean response reduction factors matched well with the target values based on the dynamic analysis results. It is concluded that the proposed method is quite simple for the design of friction dampers to reduce seismic response of the structure.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of friction stir welded lap joints of Inconel 600 and SS 400 were evaluated; friction stir welding was carried out at a tool rotation speed of 200 rpm and welding speed of 100 mm/min. Electron back-scattering diffraction and transmission electron microscopy were introduced to analyze the grain boundary characteristics and the precipitates, respectively. Application of friction stir welding was notably effective at reducing the grain size of the stir zone. As a result, the reduced average grain size of Inconel 600 ranged from 20μm in the base material to 8.5μm in the stir zone. The joint interface between Inconel 600 and SS 400 showed a sound weld without voids and cracks, and MC carbides with a size of around 50 nm were partially formed at the Inconel 600 area of lap joint interface. However, the intermetallic compounds that lead to mechanical property degradation of the welds were not formed at the joint interface. Also, a hook, along the Inconel 600 alloy from SS 400, was formed at the advancing side, which directly brought about an increase in the peel strength. In this study, we systematically discussed the evolution of microstructures and mechanical properties of the friction stir lap joint between Inconel 600 and SS 400.

The interest for the stability of the structures against earthquake, which is increasing recently, is rapidly increasing. But, currently, school buildings among the reinforced concrete(RC) structures in Korea are not designed with seismic design or there are many cases of being designed with the old seismic design code, so it is estimated to have not only lives but also a great deal of economic damage are likely to occur when an earthquake occurs. In this study, proposed horizontal friction system(HFS) with rotary friction damper installed as a method to reinforce strength and hardness and to increase ductility for the low story structure of 5 stories or lower such as school buildings. For the seismic retrofitting design with horizontal friction system in which rotary friction damper is installed, Peak displacement response ratio according to elastic and inelastic behavior and ductility demand is calculated to decide elastic stiffness and strength of the HFS, design model and procedure to decide the capacity of HFS thereof is decided, and the feasibility and performance are reviewed through pushover analysis.

This study was carried out to evaluate the microstructures and mechanical properties of a friction stir welded Ni based alloy. Inconel 600 (single phase type) alloy was selected as an experimental material. For this material, friction stir welding (FSW) was performed at a constant tool rotation speed of 400 rpm and a welding speed of 150~200 mm/min by a FSW machine, and argon shielding gas was utilized to prevent surface oxidation of the weld material. At all conditions, sound friction stir welds without any weld defects were obtained. The electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) method was used to analyze the grain boundary character distributions (GBCDs) of the welds. As a result, dynamic recrystallization was observed at all conditions. In addition, grain refinement was achieved in the stir zone, gradually accelerating from 19 μm in average grain size of the base material to 5.5 μm (150 mm/min) and 4.1 μm (200 mm/min) in the stir zone with increasing welding speed. Grain refinement also led to enhancement of the mechanical properties: the 200 mm/min friction stir welded zone showed 25% higher microhardness and 15% higher tensile strength relative to the base material.

목적 : 본 연구의 목적은 첫째, 체성감각 수용기의 활성화인 마찰에 의한 통증 입력이 고유수용성 감각에 미치는 영 향을 알아보고 둘째, 작업수행 기술 수준에 따른 작업수행 요인 중 하나인 고유수용성 감각의 변화를 규명하는 것 이다. 연구방법 : 실험군으로 1년 간 작업 실습에 참가한 제철 산업 전공 남자 대학생 22명과 대조군으로 일반 남자 대학 생 22명을 선정하였고. 3차원 동작분석 장비 Winarm을 이용하여 주관절 굴곡 신전, 수근관절 굴곡 신전 시 관절 위치 오차를 측정하여 고유수용성 감각 정도를 구하였다. 이 후 빗질을 이용하여 마찰 통증을 발현하였고 고유수 용성 감각을 재측정하였다. 수집된 자료는 계산식을 이용하여 오차의 평균을 산출한 뒤 통계분석 하였다. 결과 : 주관절 굴곡, 신전과 수근관절 굴곡, 신전 시 실험군과 대조군 모두 마찰에 의한 통증 입력 이후 자세 위치 오 차가 증가하였다(p<.05). 실험군과 대조군의 자세 위치 오차의 전후 차이를 비교한 결과 주관절의 y축 오차에서만 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났고 (p<.05) 다른 변인들은 모두 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 결론 : 체성 감각인 통증의 증가는 위치조절에 필요한 고유수용성 감각 활성을 감소시키고 통증 발현 시 작업수행 기술 수준과는 상관없이 고유수용성감각 감소는 일정한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 산업재해 예방을 위해서는 통증 을 감소시키고 고유수용성 감각을 증가시키는 프로그램이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
