In this paper, durability verification of forged wheels for automobiles were performed using the finite element method for bending fatigue analysis and impact analysis. In addition, the durability analysis environment of forged wheels was implemented. By analyzing the stress distribution on the surface of the forged wheel, the area with a high possibility of breakage was identified and improved. The durability analysis of the initial model forged wheel was performed by bending fatigue analysis and impact analysis, The stress distribution of the forged wheel surface was analyzed through the analysis results of the initial model. and the spokes, flanges, hubs, and rear parts are less likely to be damaged were cut to reduce the weight by about 10%, and the reliability of the improved model was confirmed.

In this study, the models with types A, B and C of the commercial electric kickboard suspensions were modeled and the structural analyses were carried out. Types A and C have the deformations less than type B. The coil spring can reduce the deformation by installing the suspension. In types A and C, the forces applied to the bolt became same, but more deformation occurred in type C. This is the difference due to whether or not there is a fixed part. Type A was fixed and type C not. This fixation indicates that the bolt has been fully tightened to the end. Therefore, the use of products thatarefully contacted to the end by tightening with bolts can reduce the deformation greatly. Based on the data obtained from this study, it is assumed that the more efficient and stable product will be designed if the suspension absorber of the suspension is designed. Without the test on the durability of electric kickboard suspension, the durability can be seen as the deformation and stress are investigated through the structural analysis.

The cast iron pipe protection of submarine cables has a bump in the connection, so the guide device for checking the position and location of the submarine cable must pass through the curved surface. Since the connection is present at a regular intervals, impact loads are periodically applied, affecting the durability of the guide device. In this study, the design was changed to improve the durability of guide device links. And for the analysis of the durability for link of guide device, the flexible dynamic analysis of the guide device was performed using MSC.Adams, and the dynamic stress acting on the link was calculated using MSR(Modal Stress Recovery) method. As a result, the dynamic stress is reduced by 17.9%~31.1%. In addition, durability was calculated for the initial model and the improved model. As a result, the durability of the new model was improved more than 200 % better than to the initial model.

Pipe for water supply is one of the important parts that supply water to home, factory and so on. Water leakage in pipe for water supply due to deterioration, ground sinking and earthquake leads to enormous economical loss. Therefore, pipe for water supply should be designed to satisfy the requirement of, for instance, structural stability and fatigue durability. The purpose of this study was to investigate the fatigue durability of flexible joint for relaxing the impact due to earthquake and ground sinking. For this purpose, flexible joint was simulated using dynamic characteristics and fatigue life. As the results, the problem of fatigue durability may occur when flexible joint and pipe for water supply are treated as rigid body in simulation. Thus it means that the role of packing in flexible joint is very important and packing should be designed as optimal conditions that are considered fatigue durability as well as waterproof.

This paper uses finite element analysis to analyze the equivalent stress and fatigue duration distributed in the timing belt pulley of the rotating part. The pulley structure used for analysis was categorized into one body type and separate axis type and their characteristics were analyzed when materials S45C and SCM440-870C were applied. A static structural analysis and durability analysis show that when external forces are applied to the pulley, the separate axis structure is structurally safer and more favorable in terms of fatigue, compared to the one body. In addition, the separate axis structure using SCM440-870C material was found to have the best safety factor at 10.4 and infinite fatigue life. These findings are expected to be useful when manufacturing timing belt pulleys.

The vehicle weight and alternative light materials development like aluminum alloys are hot issues around the world. In order to obtain the goal of the weight reduction of automobiles, the researches about lighter and stronger suspension links have been studies without sacrificing the safety of automotive components. Therefore, in present study, the structure analysis of the torque strut links made by aluminum alloys (A356) was performed by using CAE (computer aided engineering) to investigate the light weight design process from the reference of the rear suspension torque strut link which was made by STKM11A steel and was already proven in the commercial market. Especially, the simulated maximum von Mises stresses after strength analysis were normalized as fatigue limit and these were converted to the WF (weight factor) of the same type as the fatigue safety factor suggested and named like that in present study. From these, it was suggested that the fatigue properties of the torque strut could be simply predicted only from this static CAE simulation.

This study is investigated by the analyses of modal and harmonic response on BH motor, VI motor and DH motor. The natural frequency of DH motor becomes lower than that of VI motor. As the maximum amplitude of displacement is shown to be 2.06×10-2mm at 1300 Hz in case of BH motor, BH motor can be thought to be the best structure in comparison with VI motor and DH motor. The deformation of 0.34806 mm happens at the critical frequency in case of BH motor. And the maximum deformation happens at the joint connected between screw axis and seat in cases of three kinds of motors. By applying the result of this study to the designs of these kinds of motors, it is thought that the damage of linked parts is prevented. As the durability can be examined and anticipated, this result can be utilized really

This study analyzes lifes and damages at two automotive grills in use through the structural analyses with fatigue. As maximum equivalent stress in case of aftermarket grill frame becomes smaller more 15 times than horizontal grill frame, aftermarket grill is shown to be more stable. The lowest damage becomes 2968 in case of ‘SAE bracket history’ with the severest change of load at aftermarket grill. As it becomes smaller more 5 times than horizontal grill frame, aftermarket grill has more durability. Among the cases of nonuniform fatigue loads, ‘Sample history’ with the slowest change of load becomes most unstable in case of horizontal grill frame but ‘SAE bracket history’ with the severest change of load becomes most stable in case of aftermarket grill frame. The structural result of this study can be effectively utilized with the design of automotive grill frame by investigating prevention and durability against its damage.

Recently durability design based on deterministic or probabilistic method has been attempted since service life evaluation in RC(Reinforced Concrete) structure exposed to chloride attack is important. The deterministic durability design contains a reasonable method with time effect on surface chloride content and diffusion coefficient, however the probabilistic design procedure has no consideration of time effect on both. In the paper, a technique on PDF(Probability of Durability Failure) evaluation is proposed considering time effect on diffusion and surface chloride content through equivalent surface chloride content which has same induced chloride content within a given period and cover depth. With varying period to built-up from 10 to 30 years and maximum surface chloride content from 5.0 kg/m3 to 10.0 kg/m3, the changing PDF and the related service life are derived. The proposed method can be reasonably applied to actual durability design with preventing conservative design parameters and considering the same analysis conditions of the deterministic method.

콘크리트 구조물은 경제적이고 내구적인 구조물이지만 철근부식에 따라 성능이 내구적, 구조적 저하하게 된다. 최근들어 내구성설계가 도입되고 있는데, 콘크리트 구조물의 내구수명은 해수에 같이 노출되더라도, 국부적인 노출환경과 설계방법에 따라 다르게 평가된다. 본 연구는 3.5년∼4.5년 해수에 노출된 4개의 RC 교각을 대상으로 실태조사를 수행하여 25개의 콘크리트 코어를 채취하였으며, 전염화물을 평가하여 표면염화물량 및 겉보기 확산계수를 도출하였다. Fick's 2nd Law를 기본으로 한 결정론적 방법과 임계확률을 고려한 확률론적인 방법을 수행하여 내구수명을 각각 평가하고 분석하였다. 확률론적인 방법은 보수적으로 평가되었으며, 같은 구조물이라 하더라도 간만대 및 40.0 m 이상의 비말대에서는 비교적 낮은 내구수명이 평가되었다. 본 연구에서는 코어채취높이에 따른 염화물 거동 분석과 내구성 설계방법의 현시점에서의 한계성이 분석되었다.
