This paper is to predict quality deterioration resulting from a caulking process of yoke which is a part of automotive steering system. The caluking is a plastic deformation process involving such as impact of high speed tool, contacts between part and fixtures and strain rate sensitivity of the part material. Elaborate application of finite element method is neccesary to calculate changes of part dimensions because they fall into a level of tolerances. Simple work hardening and strain rate sensitive model is proposed fur the material and applied for the simulation by using Abaqus which is able to cater for elastoplastic rate sensitive material and contacts. Numerical results of test models that represent tensile bar and tensile plate are compared with material data inputs. Dimensional changes for the yoke are calculated from simulations and compared to the mesurements and they show good agreement. The method presented here with the material model proved to be valuable to assess quality deterioration for similar metal forming processes.

There are being a lot of studies for achievement of high speed Dehydration, high-strength and Lightweight of washing machine in the latest washing machine business. It is essential that strength of mechanical press-Joining (MPJ) for spin drum is improved to attain that target. MPJ of spin drum is composed of seaming and caulking process. Because Seaming process of MPJ has various design factors such as thickness, bending radius, seaming width, caulking press width and the dynamic factor such as multistage plastic working, elastic recovery, residual stress, the optimum conditions can't be easily determined. Using a design of experiment (DOE) based on the FEM (Finite Element Method), which has several advantages such as less computing, high accuracy performance and usefulness, this study was performed investigating the interaction effect between the various design factor as well as the main effect of the each design factor during drum MPJ and proposed optimum condition using center composition method among response surface derived from regression equation of simulation-based DOE.

볼 조인트는 두 요소 사이에서 회전 및 이동이 원활하도록 돕는 역할을 하는 기계요소이다. 본 연구의 대상인 볼 조인트는 중대형 승용차량용 볼 조인트로서 너클과 컨트롤 암의 운동을 돕는다. 본 연구에서는 볼 조인트의 공정 및 시험에 관한 해석 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 볼 조인트의 제작공정은 플러깅 공정과 스피닝 공정으로 나눌 수 있다. 볼 조인트의 제작공정 및 성능시험을 암시적 수치 적분법을 적용한 상용 동역학 프로그램인 NX DAFUL 2.0 을 사용하여 해석하였다. 또한 설계요구조건을 정의하기 위하여 볼 스터드에 작용하는 응력의 평균 및 분산을 반응치로 설정하였다. 그리고 완성된 볼조인트의 유격량을 시험하는 유격시험해석을 통해 최적의 설계를 제안하였다.

An automobile ball joint is the element for connecting the control arm and the knuckle arm, allowing rotational motion. The ball joint consists of the stud, plug, socket, and seat. These components are assembled through the caulking process that consists of plugging and spinning. In the existing research, the pull-out strength and gap stiffness were calculated, but we did not consider the uncertainties due to the numerical analysis and production. In this study, the uncertainties of material property and tolerance are considered to predict the distributions of pull-out strength and gap stiffness. Also, pull-out strength and gap stiffness are predicted as the a distribution rather than one deterministic value. Furthermore, a robust design applying the Taguchi method is suggested.

There are being a lot of studies for achievement of high speed Dehydration, high-strength and Lightweight of washing machine in the latest washing machine business. It is essential that Press-joining Strength of Spin Drum Seaming division is improved .to attain that target. Generally, we are using Mechanical press-joining by Seaming and T.I.G (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding among part joint method. Mechanical press-joining method that is mainly using for Stainless Steel (STS430) Drum have lots of merit that consumption of energy is low more than welding and production costs cut down and generation of the corrosion is solved by removing weld zone defect and materials having different properties are enable to join without special equipment. But, it is difficult to realize joint strength required at high speed operation because joint strength of mechanical press-joining method is low remarkably in comparison with welding. Also, there are a lot of analysis difficulties and very limited research is under way due to the dynamic factor such as multistage plastic working, elastic recovery, residual stress etc. The results of this study show optimal joining condition for mechanical press-joining by performing lots of tensile joining strength test with various specimen under multi-change of important design factor such as seaming width, bead area and bead depth etc.

본 연구는 지하수 중 라듐(²²⁶Ra) 분석을 위해 고상추출디스크(solid phase extraction disk)를 이용한 감마선분광분석법(이하 고상추출디스크법)을 제안하고 액체섬광계수기를 이용한 액체섬광계수(liquid scintillation counter, LSC)법 및 마리넬리비커(Marinelli beaker)를 이용한 감마선분광분석기(gamma ray spectrometer)법(이하 마리넬리비커법)과의 회수율 비교를 통해 적용성을 검토하였다. ²²⁶Ra을 회수한 고상추출디스크는 딸핵종의 방출을 방지하기 위해 폴리에틸렌 필름으로 밀봉 후 감마선분광분석기로 분석하였다. 24일 경과 후, ²²⁶Ra과 딸핵종인 ²¹⁴Bi과 ²¹⁴Pb이 방사평형 된 것으로 확인되었다. 라듐 표준물질을 이용하여 고상추출디스크법으로 분석한 딸핵종 ²¹⁴Bi와 ²¹⁴Pb의 회수율은 각각 80% (295.21 Kev)와 104% (351.92 Kev)로 액체섬광계수법보다 높게 나타났다. 바탕시료(blank) 측정시 감마선분광분석기 챔버내 질소를 주입했을 경우는 주입하지 않았을 경우보다 간섭치가 약 10% 이하로 낮아지는 것을 확인하였으며, 5 L 시료를 8만초 동안 측정한 검출한계는 0.17~0.40 pCi/L로 분석되어 미국 EPA 기준치인 1pCi/L를 만족하였다. 고상추출디스크법과 액체섬광계수법을 이용한 7개 지하수 시료 분석 결과, 두 방법의 상관계수(correlation coefficient)는 0.987로 나타나 추가적인 분석을 통해 통계적 유의성을 확보한다면 고상추출디스크법의 적용가능성이 높을 것으로 판단된다. 결과적으로, 고상추출디스크법을 이용한 지하수 중 ²²⁶Ra 농도 분석은 전처리 과정이 비교적 단순하여 분석시간이 절약되고 높은 회수율과 낮은 검출한계치 등의 장점을 가지고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 고상추출디스크법은 액체섬광계수법과 마리넬리비커법에 비해 많은 양의 시료를 전처리하기 쉽기 때문에 저준위 시료 분석에 유용할 것으로 판단된다.
