Laser forming is an advanced process in sheet metal forming in which a laser heat source is used to shape the metal sheet. This is a new manufacturing technique that forms the metal sheet only by a thermal stress. Analyses of the temperature and stress fields are very important to identify the deformation mechanism in laser forming. In this paper, temperature distributions and deformation behaviors of DP980 steel sheets are investigated numerically and experimentally. FE simulations are first conducted to evaluate the response of a square sheet in bending. The effects of process parameters such as laser power and scanning speed are then analyzed numerically and experimentally. It is observed that experimental and numerical results are in good agreement. These results provide a relationship between the line energy and the angles for laser bending of DP980 steel sheets.

A flow analysis for the erosion-corrosion damaged automotive water pump which causes vehicle fire is numerically performed using the CFX program, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The blade bending deformation and the blade clearance enlargement are considered in the analysis of performance reduction. For the cavitation analysis, the homogeneous multi phase model is adopted using the Ralyleigh-Plesset model for the rate equation controlling vapor generation and condensation.

연성 기판을 기초로 하는 플렉서블 디스플레이 등의 연성 소자에 적용되는 TCO, 투습방지막의 기계적 특성을 시험하였다. 실제 사용 환경에서의 기계적 특성을 평가하기 위하여 굽힘시험과 인장시험을 적용하였다. PET 기판위에 PE-CVD 공정으로 성장된 실리콘 산화물 ($SiO_x$) 박막과 그 위에 스퍼터링 공정으로 성장된 투명 전도성 산화물 (TCO, Transparent Conducting Oxide) 박막의 시험 결과, 균열 생성 임계 변형량은 TCO 박막에 의해서 결정됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 향상된 기계적 특성을 얻기 위해서는 TCO 박막의 특성 제어가 필요하다.

Many of aged and damaged concrete structure have been revitalized with composite reinforcement. Flexural behaviors of composite-patched concrete specimens are characterized by high-sensitivity moire interferometry. The three-mirror, four-beam interferometry system and a compact loading system are used for obtaining singe patterns representing whole-field contour maps of in-plane displacements. It is seen from the calibration test for the loading system that the measured bending displacement is in excellent agreement with the displacement calculated by the beam theory. The crack opening displacement as well as the bending and the horizontal displacement fur the notched and unnotched specimen are investigated. The results also show that the notched specimen reinforced by a composite sheet has sufficient stiffness and strength compared to the original concrete specimen.

The contact forces between die components for the drawing of large size automotive panels introduce elastic deflections of the die components. Due to the deflections, the gap between blank holder and die varies locally resulting in nonuniform material flow. Such a nonuniform die gap usually requires correcting operation, so called die spotting, which is time consuming trial and error process. To reduce the die spotting time, the optimization of the blank holder bending deflection is needed. In this paper, we implemented an analysis procedure to predict the blank holder deflection. The analysis procedure and design of experiments techniques are applied to the optimization of balance block heights. The optimization results can be used as guidelines in actual die spotting process.

본 논문에서는 유한요소법을 이용하여 임의의 단면을 가지는 빔의 비틀림 문제를 해석 할 수 있는 방법론을 제시하였다. 빔 유한요소에서 연속적인 뒤틀림함수를 얻기 위해 각 절점에서 뒤틀림자유도를 정의한 후 빔의 길이 방향으로 보간하였다. 이러한 방법의 사용은 뒤틀림구속효과와 비선형문제에 쉽게 접근 할 수 있게 한다. 또한, 임의의 단면에 대한 뒤틀림함수는 각 단면에서 St.Venant 방정식을 유한요소법을 통해 수치적으로 계산된다. 단면에서 계산된 해는 3차원 일반 빔 요소의 변위장에 매핑된다. 위와 같은 절차를 통해 개발된 빔 유한요소를 사용하면 임의의 단면을 가진 빔 구조물을 자유/구속 뒤틀림조건에서 비틀림, 굽힘, 신축 변형이 복합적으로 고려하여 해석해 낼 수 있다. 이렇게 해석된 결과를 검증하기 위하여 사각단면과 L단면에서의 결과 값을 고찰하였다.

In the recent years, the production of light-weight products has become important because of increasing demands for the energy savings through weight reduction. Therefore the advanced manufacturing technology with Al alloy is continuously required in many industrial fields. Bending characteristics of Al rectangular tube with hollow and solid section has been analyzed by FE analysis in press bending with wing-die. Bending stress is affected by punch stroke and rotation of wing-die. There were different sectional sagging characteristics between the solid rectangle section and the hollow rectangle section.

Two kinds of 4-node plane stress/strain finite elements are presented in this work. They are derived from the modified Hellinger-Reissner variational principle so as to employ the internal incompatible displacement and independent stress fields, or the incompatible displacement and strain fields. The introduced incompatible functions are selected to satisfy the constant strain condition. The elements are evaluated on several problems of bending and material incompressibility with regular and distorted elements. The results show that the new elements perform excellently in the calculation of deformation and stresses.

Monotonic four-point bending tests were conducted on straight pipe specimens, 102 mm in diameter with local wall thinning, in order to investigate the effects of the depth, shape, and location of wall thinning on the deformation and failure behavior of pipes. The local wall thinning simulated natural erosion/corrosion metal loss. The deformation and fracture behavior of the straight pipes with local wall thinning was compared with that of non wall-thinning pipes. The failure modes were classifiedas local buckling, ovalization, or crack initiation, depending on the depth, shape, and location of the local wall thinning. Three-dimensional elasto-plastic analyses were carried out using the finite element method. The deformation and failure behavior, simulated by finite element analyses, coincided with the experimental results.

As it is well appreciated plate forming by line heating takes an important role in ship production process. The paper deals with the development of line heating simulator which can produce the resultant deformation due to line heating in a few minute adn with which user can see the result graphically. For the present purpose mechanical modelling is adopted which can explicitly represent the physical resultant of line heating. In developing the present line heating simulator several program modules are integrated by adopting GUI concept such that the simulator can produce resultant deformation with keeping high accuracy. Application example is illustrated for the twisted shape surface which can be frequently seen in ship and offshore structures.
