In the field of automobile industry, lightweight problems are very important in terms of reducing fuel and protecting environment. To satisfy these demands, the attempt to substitute aluminum automobile components for cast steel part has been actively carried out. To fabricate the aluminum automobile suspension part that has the same mechanical properties with cast steel part, design conditions such as shape and dimension of part shall be established. Therefore in this study, shape and dimension conditions of suspension part were proposed. Aluminum automobile suspension part was fabricated by semi-solid die-casting process under the obtained design conditions. Moreover to evaluate the possibility of application to the automobile component, stress and fatigue analysis were performed by using ABAQUS S/W and compared with those of conventional automobile suspension part.

A modified generalized particle algorithm, MGPA, was suggested to improve the calculation efficiency of standard SPH Method in numerical analysis of high speed impact behavior. MGPA had a new weight function to reduce computation time. The efficiency of this method was proven through calculation for the sample problems of one dimensional rod impact problem and two dimensional plate impact problem. The MGPA method reduced the calculation error and stress oscillation near the boundaries. The validity of this approach was shown by the comparison with ABAQUS results in two dimensional plate impact problem.

A numerical system to extract effective elastic properties of polycrystalline thin-films for MEMS devices is developed. In this system, the statistical model based on lattice system is used for modeling the microstructure evolution simulation and the key kinetics parameters of given micrograph, grain distributions and deposition process can be extracted by inverse method proposed in the system. In this work, effects of kinetics parameters on the extraction of effective elastic properties of polycrystalline thin-films are studied by using statistical method. Effects of the fraction of the potential site($f_p$) among the parameters for deposition process of microstructure on the extraction of effective elastic properties of polycrystalline thin-films are investigated. For this research, polysilicon is applied to this system as the polycrystalline thin-films.

In this study, to achieve the optimal conditions for mechanical hyper-fine pattern fabrication process, deformation behavior of the materials during indentation was studied with numerical method by ABAQUS S/W. Brittle materials (Si, Pyrex glass) were used as specimens, and forming conditions to reduce the elastic restoration and pile-up was proposed. The indenter was modeled a rigid surface. Minimum mesh sizes of specimens are 1-10nm Comparison between the experimental data and numerical result demonstrated that the finite element approach is capable of reproducing the loading-unloading behavior of a nanoindentation test. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern.

Superplastic forming of thin sheet into complex shape is an important manufacturing process especially in aerospace industry. The main interest in modeling the superplastic forming process is to predict the forming pressure cycle to maintain optimum strain rate and the resulting thickness distribution. Many researchers have attemped to model superplastic forming using the various techniques including finite element method. But in most of their researches have disregarded the strain hardening effect which which occurs in several superplastic materials. In this study ABAQUS finite element code was used for prediction of process variables for axisymmetric cup forming of Supral 100 and 7075Al alloys considereing strain hardening. The performance of numerical results were compared with the experimental results.

This paper is concerned with a forming analysis of front side members and the application of the forming effect in crash analysis of auto-body. Drawbead restraining forces are calculated with ABAQUS/Strandard in order to identify the boundary condition in forming process. Forming analysis with equivalent drawbead is carried out with LS-DYNA3D. In order to demonstrate the validity of the forming analysis, quantitative comparison of the thickness variation between the real product and the numerical simulation result is carried out. Forming histories obtained from the forming analysis are utilized as the initial condition of the crash analysis for accurate assessment of the crashworthiness.

원자력발전소의 1차 계통에서 오염된 장비들을 취급이 용이하고 안전하게 운반하기 위한 운반용기는 내부의 방사성 물질에 대한 방사능 평가에 의하여 방사성물질 A형 운반용기로 분류된다. 방사성물질 A형 운반용기는 IAEA Safety Standard Series No. ST-1 및 국내 원자력법 등 관련규정의 기술기준을 만족하여야 하는데, 운반용기는 중량에 따라 0.3∼1.2m의 높이에서 소성이 일어나지 않는 단단한 바닥면으로 가장 심각한 손상을 주는 방향으로 낙하시키는 정상운반조건(normal transport conditions)에 대하여 구조적 건전성을 유지하여야 한다. 여기서는 ABAQUS/Explicit 코드를 이용하여 컨테이너형태의 A형 운반용기에 대하여 최대손상이 야기되는 0.9m 경사낙하조건에 대한 3차원 충격해석을 수행하고 구조적 건전성을 평가하였는데, 운반용기는 경사낙하시 코너피팅(corner fitting)의 분쇄(crush)에 의하여 대부분의 충격을 흡수하였으며 운반용기의 격납경계는 구조적 건전성을 유지하였다.

Formability in deep drawing process depends not only on a drawability of workpiece material but also on process conditions such as die punch comer radius, lubricant conditions, punch-die clearance etc. For instance, bending resistance should be reduced by increasing die round appropriately, drawing load should be minimized by improving the lubricant condition between die and material, and blanking load should be increased by selecting a pertinent punch round and by augmenting the friction resistance in punch. In this study, a multi-stage deep drawing process is analyzed using ABAQUS. The effects of formability factors, such as die shoulder radius, punch-die clearance and friction coefficient are investigated, and the results are also discussed in detail.

Pressure loads caused by gas, water and wind are the most important load cases in structural analysis. Often the pressure loads are approximated by constant directional loads since it is difficult to evaluate the exact value. However, the pressure load is defined as a displacement dependent one and it is necessary to consider the follower effects of the load in analysis procedure. In this study, the large deformation analysis considering geometrical nonlinearity for shell structures under pressure loads is presented. Finite element by using a three-node flat triangular shell element is formulated and the follower effects of the pressure load are included in the formulation. Some of results are presented for cantilevered beam under uniform external pressure and thin circular ring under non-uniform external pressure. The present results are in good agreement with the results available in existing literature and commercial software ABAQUS.

In clinical use, coronary stents keep coronary arteries open after expansion with a balloon catheter and prevent the expanded artery from collapsing. Coronary stents are positioned in artery by catheter with a balloon along a guide wire to the lesion site. Flexibility is one of important ability for delivery. In this paper, Palmaz-Schatz stent and Tenax complete stent were selected because these are the most representative of tubular stents. Finite element analyses for the stent system were performed using ABAQUS/Standard code. The present study estimated the flexibility of coronary stents due to loading directions. Moreover the present paper suggests a numerical method to test the flexibility of stents. In conclusion this paper shows how the finite element analysis can be effectively organized in the stent development.
