The purpose of this study is to evaluate the structural safety of cultural altar since its bearing capacity has been questioned due to weathering damages and sectional defections. This evaluation process consists two stages; which the first is field investigation and the second is structural modeling and analysis. Based on field investigation, all of the structural members supporting the altar were carefully examined and all the findings were accounted for the development of the structural modeling using the Midas computer program. Using a 3D scanner, the weight of the Buddha statue was applied to the structural modeling. Then, according to the allowable stress design method of KBC2016, the structural safety was evaluated. Based on this result, replacements of several structural members were recommended to increase the structural safety and value of cultural property.

Mechanical components are to be produced with accurate dimensions in order to function properly in assemblies of a machine. Once designs of mechanical components are created, designers examine the designs by adopting many known experimental methods. A primary test method includes stress and strain evaluation of structural parts. In addition, fatigue test and vibration analysis are an important test method for mechanical components. Real experiments at a laboratory are established when products are manufactured. Since design changes should be done before producing the designs in factories, rapid modifications for new designs are required in production industries. FEM simulation is a proper choice for a design evaluation with speed at a detail stage in design process. This research focuses modeling and mechanical simulation of a mechanical component in order to ensure structural safety. In this paper, a universal joint, being used in driving axels of vehicles, is studied as a target component. A design model is created and tested in some ways by using commercial software of FEM. The designed component is being twisted to transmit heavy power and thus, torsional stress should be under strengths of the component’s material. The next is fatigue analysis to convince fatigue cycles to be within the endurance limit of the material. Another test is a vibration analysis for rotational components. This research draws final conclusions from these test analyses and recommends whether the designed model is under safety condition in terms of mechanical structure.

Modern manufacturing industries is to produce both precise and robust mechanical parts without failure while they are in service. In order to prevent a part failure for its lifetime, a mechanical design for a part should be examined on a basis of mechanical simulation. A nozzle plate, being a key part in steam engines, changes flow directions of steam in a turbine used in power plant. This paper is to the design and test for part safety and durability. Currently, nozzle plates are fabricated by welding nozzles to their plates. Welding causes some defects on the used materials while they are being manufactured. Another major defect is un-even pitches between welded nozzles. Welding causes phase changes because of high melting temperature of metal. This leads to decay on the welding spots, which weakens their structural strength and then, may lead to early damages on mechanical structures. This research proposes assembly-typed nozzle plate without welding. From the beginning, nozzle and plate are designed for insertion-typed assembly. Nozzle head and foot are designed in accordance with the grooves on outer ring and inner ring of a plate to make mating surfaces. Then the nozzle plate should be proved for structural and fatigue safety before they are put in manufacturing. This research adopts commercial softwares for modeling and mechanical simulation. The test result shows that the design with smaller mating area and deeper insertion produces higher safety in terms of structure and durability. From the conclusion, this paper proposes the assembly-typed nozzle plate to replace the welding typed.

The findings were summarized as follows. The safety check by manufacturer showed that 6 of 13 companies are over the average occurrence of defects. It was expected that there would be a difference between manufacturing technology capability and production system of each manufacturer. Consequently, manufacturers should institutionally improve and strengthen certification items for the upward standardization of safety certification before factory. Second, the safety check by year showed that the results of this study accord with those of previous studies on defect time. Consequently, manufacturers should classify the 3-year-old equipment for vehicle-mounted MEWP into a special check subject to do a nondestructive test according to proven results, and also reflect the test in a safety test system to do regular preventive activities of equipment defects. Third, the safety check by part showed that the boom and outrigger parts of vehicle-mounted MEWP have the most defects. Stress concentration resulted in defects as the boom part was most frequently operated in the structural parts for a real work. To prevent this, it is suitable to improve the hardness of boom materials. The outrigger part needs improvement in safety devices with materials. As an outrigger supports the overturning moment of equipment, it is most affected by its load based on the operating radius, resulting in fatigue crack.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the structural safety of the spherical-helical turbine for hydro-power. We analyze fluid-structure interaction of the spherical-helical turbine for hydro-power using ANSYS-CFX and Mechanical. The maximum combined stress, deformation and safety factor of the spherical-helical turbine in cases of three types of materials were obtained by fluid-structural analysis. From structural analysis, the maximum value of the equivalent stress occurred at the shaft of the turbine for three material types. In case of a polyethylene turbine blades, the maximum equivalent stress and safety factor were 3.46 MPa and 7.23. Polyethylene turbine blades were evaluated to be safe except of the turbine shaft. Several researches will be performed based on the results of this study and more research and development of technologies are needed in this field.

기존 건축물의 구조 안전성평가와 보수 보강 시에는 해당 건축물의 상태를 정확히 알기 위해 현장 또는 실험실에서의 실험을 수행하는 경우가 많고 최초설계 단계와 다르게 시공된 건축물의 실제 상태 등을 구조해석 모델에 반영하게 된다. 이 경우, 각종 실험값을 전통적인 통계학적 방법은 구조기술자가 지닌 경험과 지식은 구조모델링 및 해석에서 아무런 가치를 더할 수가 없다. 본 논문은 현장 및 실험실에서 얻은 단순한 실험값을 구조기술자의 축적된 경험과 지식을 변수로 활용하여 보다 유효하게 구조해석 모델에 필요한 데이터로 개선하는 방법으로서 통계학적인 베이스 경신법을 이용한 안전성평가 방법에 대해 살펴보았다. 구조기술자의 적절한 판단이 변수로서 포함되면 적은 개수의 샘플 수로도 비교적 정확한 값의 최종 예측값을 산정할 수 있어 전통적인 통계학적 접근에 비해 보다 실제값에 근접한 예측값을 구할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.
