외부가 비축대칭인 튜브의 수방압출은 자동차와 항공기등의 복잡한 부품을 만드는데 많이 사용된다. 이런 후방압출 제품의 변형 상태는 저자들의 논문에서 이미 밝힌 바와 같이 복잡하다. 그래서, 외부가 비출대칭인 튜브형상의 후방압출은 근래에 와서 연구되었다. 본 연구에서는 저자들의 논문 에서 제시된 동적가용속도장을 수정하여 비축대칭인 소재에서 내부가 원형인 튜브의 후방압출의 최종 단계를 해석하 고자 한다. 해석의 적용예로서는 정다각형 소재와 모서리가 둥근 직사각형(rounded rectangle)소재를 택하였다 제시된 속도장으로부터 단면 감소율과 형상비(aspect ratio)에 대하여 압출 하중과 압출된 소재의 평균 높이가 결정된다. 이론적인 결과와 비교하기 위하여 퓰림처리된 AIST-2024 알루미늄 소재로 실험하였다.

Thermoplastic elastomers are being used increasingly throughout industry owing to their superior properties, such as superior elasticity, formability, and recoverability. Currently, research related to thermoplastic elastomers is focused on the development of composite elastomers by combining with various materials and the development of equipment. On the other hand, in the field of small and medium sized companies, it is necessary to study not only the application of these new materials, but also the process conditions that enable the extrusion of thermoplastic elastomers in inexpensive uniaxial screwing equipment. If extrusion is performed in a single screw extruder, it is important to maintain a uniform thickness through process control of the extruder. This study examined the effects of the processing temperature, which is an extrusion process variable, on the formability of a tube in the thermoplastic elastomer TPE-800L uniaxial extrusion process. The nozzle zone temperature is the most important factor in the extrusion of thermoplastic elastomer TPE-800L; the most excellent moldability was confirmed at $165-170^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, the tube forming by radial-forward extrusion is analyzed by numerical simulation and experiments. The paper discusses the effects of process variables such as gap height, relative gap width and die corner radius on tube forming. The influence of deformation patterns of flange in radial extrusion on forward extrusion for tube forming is investigated and summarized in terms of the maximum forming force and hardness variations along the extrusion path. Furthermore the external defects are shown experimentally during the forming operation. Based on finite element analysis in conjunction with experimental test in Al alloy, analysis is performed for important parameter combination in order to reduce forming defects. Eventually, the process parameters for safe forming are suggested in order to reduce the forming defects.

In this study, it was attempted to disperse carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in a polymer matrix using a twin-screw extruder which was good for dispersing fillers of micron sizes but not suitable for dispersing nanometer-sized materials. Improved dispersion of CNTs could be achieved by the addition of inorganic fillers with different geometrical shapes. An increase in the matrix viscosity provided a high shear stress on aggregated CNTs, leading to a good dispersion of CNTs. The presence of the inorganic fillers was supposed to suppress the re-aggregation of CNTs in the regions where a lower shear stress was applied. As a result, the CNTs dispersion was well stabilized.

Polypropylene films reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes and exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets were fabricated by extrusion, and the effects of filler type and take-up speed on the mechanical properties and microstructure of composite films were investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the addition of carbon nanomaterials resulted in increased degree of crystallinity. However, increasing the take-up speed reduced the degree of crystallinity, which indicates that tension-induced orientations of polymer chains and carbon nanomaterials and the loss of degree of crystallinity due to rapid cooling at high take-up speeds act as competing mechanisms. These observations were in good agreement with tensile properties, which are governed by the degree of crystallinity, where the C-grade exfoliated graphite nanoplatelet with a surface area of $750m^2/g$ showed the greatest reinforcing effect among all types of carbon nanomaterials used. Scanning electron microscopy was employed to observe the carbon nanomaterial dispersion and orientation, respectively.

금속성형공정은 칩의 발생 없이 금속의 모양을 큰 소성변형으로 유용한 임의의 형태로 변화시키는 금속가공의 한 분야로써 제품을 생산함에 있어서 생산에 소요되는 시간을 최소로 줄이면서 기계적 성질이 우수한 제품을 생산하는 방법이다. 소성가공 공정에서 성형하중은 금형의 파손 및 마모에 영향을 미치고, 금형이 과도한 탄성변형으로 인한 제품의 치수 정밀도 저하시키기 때문에 성형하중 저감 설계는 소성가공 공정 설계에서 중요한 인자로 작용하고 있다. 원통형 제품을 성형하는데 주로 이용되고 있는 압출공정은 펀치 진행 방향과 동일한 방향으로 제품이 성형되는 전방압출 공정과 펀지 진행 방향과 반대로 제품의 성형되는 후방압출 공정으로 구분된다. 후방압출공정은 튜브 형성의 제품, 포장용 캔 및 변속장치 부품등을 생산하는데 주로 사용되는 공정으로서, 우수한 표면상태, 치수정밀도 및 향상된 기계적 성질을 얻을 수 있으며 높은 생산성과 낮은 제조원가를 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있다.

This paper describes a development of the extrusion process and estimation of the weldability for multi cell tubes used to cooling system of automobiles. A study on extrusion process is performed through the 3D FE simulation in non-steady state and extrusion experimentation. Also, nano-indentation test is employed to estimate the weldability of tubes. Especially, An evaluation of the weldability using the nano-indentation is accomplished as compared with nano-hardness in welded part and in the others. Finally, the pattern of the mandrel defection is investigated according to shapes of the porthole and/or chamber.

This study is concerned with the thermo-biscoplastic finite element analysis of hot tube extrusion through square dies with a mandrel. The problem is treated as a non-steady state and the ALE description is used due to abruptly turning flow at the die aperture. Since the contact heat transfer coefficient and the friction factor are required in the analysis experiments are also carried out to determine the values, In order to apply ceramics to an extrusion die the study is focussed on under-standing the characteristics of the process. The simulated results provide the useful informations such as metal flow temperature distribution stress state etc. The elastic analysis of the dies is carried out to obtain the stress state of the ceramic dies.

The use of ceramics for extrusion dies is limited since the modification of die design is difficult. In order to successfully apply the ceramic dies to extrusion dies, a better understanding of the process should be preceded. This study focuses on understanding the characteristics of the process. In the present study, a hot extrusion of tube with a mandrel is analyzed by ALE finite element method. In order to obtain the stress state of ceraminc dies, the elastic analysis of dies is also carried out.

In this study, a deformation model for the regular polygonal-shaped tubes from hollow-cylindrical billets is proposed and a kinematically admissible velocity field is obtained from this deformation model. The final stage upper-bound extrusion load and the average extruded length are determined by minimizing the total power consumption with respect to chosen parameters. Experiments have been carried out with hard solder billets at room temperature. The theoretical predictions of the extrusion load are in good agreements with the experimental results and there is generally reasonable agreement in average extruded height between theory and experiment.
