The temperature in hot forming of metallic materials, such as hot extrusion and hot forging, ranges from $300^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. Correspondingly, the die also exhibits high temperatures close to that of a work piece and its life is limited generally by high temperature fatigue. Thus, the analysis of high temperature fatigue would need the mechanical properties over the wide ranges of temperature. However, very few studies on the high temperature fatigue of brittle materials have been reported. Especially, the study on the fatigue behavior over such transition temperature regime is very rare. In this paper, the stress-strain curves and stress-life curves of a die steel such as STD61 are experimentally obtained. The wide ranges of temperature from $300^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ are considered in experiments and the transition temperature zone is carefully examined.

In this paper, a useful die system for warm plate forging of a large axle housing of heavy-duty trucks is presented. A die system composed of material flow guide pin as well as upper die and lower die is proposed to reduce the inherent thickness reduction along the bent corner of the product which deteriorates structural strength and fatigue life in its service. The role of the pin assembled in the upper die is to prevent formation of sharp corner in early forming stage and to supply material in the lower die cavity sufficient enough to thicken the bent corner at the final stroke. The mechanism of the die system is given and its effect on corner thickness of the product is revealed by two-dimensional finite element analysis under plain strain assumption. Three-dimensional finite element solutions are also given to verify validity of the two dimensional approach and to show the mechanics of the die system in detail. The die system has been successfully applied to manufacturing the axle housing of heavy-duty trucks.

This paper deals with an automated computer-aided process planning and die design system by which designer can determine operation sequences even if they have a little experience in process planning and die design for axisymmetric products. An attempt is made to link programs incorporating a number of expert design rules with the process variables obtained by commercial FEM softwares, DEFORM and ANSYS, to form a useful package. The system is composed of four main modules. The process planning and the die design modules consider several factors, such as the complexities of preform geometry, punch and die profiles, specifications of available multi former, and the availability of standard parts. They can provide a flexible process based on either the reduction in the number of forming sequences by combining the possible two processes in sequence, or the reduction of deviation of the distribution on the level of the required forming loads by controlling the forming ratios. Especially in die design module an optimal design technique and horizontal split die were investigated for determining appropriate dimensions of components of multi-former die set. It is constructed that the proposed method can be beneficial for improving the tool life of die set at practice.

This paper has comparatively analyzed the characteristics of the machined surface of a specimen made by machining Die Steel STD11 and a specimen obtained by W-EDM steel. If a press die is manufactured through W-EDM, products of shapes that cannot easily be made through machining can be manufactured easily. However, the life of the press die is significantly reduced compared with the press die made through machining. This is believed to be caused by the deformed layer that has occurred on the surface of the press die that was made through W-EDM. The roughness of the 2 specimens was measured, and it was learned that the distribution of the roughness of the specimen made through the 1st W-EDM was rough.

Because of the low melting temperature of solder, each temperature cycle initiates an irrecoverable creep deformation at the solder interconnection which connects the package body with the PCB. The crack starts and propagates from the position where the creep deformation is maximized. This work has tried to compare and analyze the thermal fatigue life of solder interconnection which is affected by the lead material, the size of die pad, chip thickness, and interface delamination of 48-Pin TSOP under the temperature cycle ($0^{\circ}C$~1$25^{\circ}C$). The crack initiation position and thermal fatigue life which are calculated by using FEA method are well matched with the results of experiments. The thermal Fatigue life of copper lead frame is extended around 3.6 times longer than that of alloy 42 lead frame. It is maximized when the chip size is matched with the length of the lead. It tends to be extended as the thickness of chip got thinner. As the interfacial delamination between die pad and EMC is increased, the thermal fatigue life tends to decrease in the beginning of delamination, and increase after the delamination grew after 45% of the length of die pad.

The temperature distribution and lifetime of molds were predicted by computer simulation analysis with various spraying and blowing process of high pressure die casting. After varying the spraying angle and time, the mold temperature, heat exchange and mold life were predicted. As the spraying angle increases, the maximum temperature of the mold decreases, which is because the spraying area increases and the heat exchange with the mold increases. Heat exchange occurs more actively in the blowing process than in the spraying process. This is because the cooling is not performed due to the steam generation. When the spraying angle is 50 degree, the minimum life of the mold is analyzed 200 times. After adjusting the blowing time from 5s to 3s, the minimum lifetime of the mold has been increased almost twice.

Bei der vorliegenden Arbit handelt es sich um Einfluβ des Feminismus auf die Bewertung der Hausarbeit. Daruber hinaus wird versucht darzustellen. was die Hausarbeitslehre in Hausha-Its wissenschaften durch feministische Perspektiven zur Hausarbeit gelernt hat und worauf sich die Hausarbeitslehre zukunfting richten soll. Durch die Analyse werden folgende Vorschlage fur die gerechte Bewtung der Hausarbeit herausgefunden: 1) Feministische Maβnahmen fur die bessere Bewertung von Hausarbeit. d.h. Forderung nach Lohn fur Hausarbeit Vergesell schaftung der Hausarbeit. Anerkennung der Beziehungsar-beit als 'richtige' Arbeit usw. werden kaum erfolgreich sein. ohne die Notwendigkeit der Bewertung von Hausarbeit bewuβu zu machen und den Grund weshalb Hausarbeit uberhaupt bewertet werden soll. aufzuzeigen. 2) Hausarbeitslehre in Haushaltswissenschaften soll sich vor allem darauf richten zu fordern. daβ Hausarbeit von beiden Geschlechtern, namlich von Mann und Frau gleich verteilt und geleistet werden soll. 3) Alle Menschen Frauen und Manner sollen entsprechend ihrer Begabung Ausbildung und ihrem Interesse Hausarbeit oder Erwerbsarbeit oder beide Tatigkeiten frei auswahlen durfen und konnen Es gibt dafur keinen plausiblen Grund daβ die Manner von Haushaltstatigkeiten befreit sind. Eine wichtige Aufgabe der Haushaltswissenschaften ist es. solche faire Gesell schaft-sform in der alle Tatigkeiten die der Wohlfahrt der Menschen beitragen gerect bewertet werden vorzustellen und zu gewahrleisten.

High speed machining (HSM), specifically end milling and ball end cutting, is attracting interest in the die/mold or aerospace industries for the machining of complex 3D surfaces. HSM of difficult-to-cut materials such as die/mold steels, titanium alloys or nickel based superalloys generates the concentrated thermal/frictional damage at the cutting edge of the tool and rapidly decreases the tool life. Following a brief introduction on HSM and reated aerospace or die/mold work, the paper reviews published data on the effect of cutter/workpiece orientation and cutting environments on tool performance. First, experimental work is detailed on the effect of cutter orientation on tool life, cutting forces, chip formation, specific force and workpiece surface roughness. Cutting was performed using 8 mm diameter PVD coated solid carbide cutters with the workpiece mounted at an angle of 45 degree from the cutter axis. A horizontal downwards cutting orientation proveded the best tool life with cut lengths ∼50% longer than for all other directions (horizontal upwards, vertical downwards, vertical upwards). Second, the cutting environments were investigated for dry, flood coolant, and compressed chilly air coolant cutting. The experiments were performed for various hardened materials and various coated tools. The results show that the cutting environment using compressed cilly air coolant provided better tool life than the flood coolant or the dry.

Window roller housings are durable because high-quality source materials such as stainless steel is used in making them. After a series of precise structure analysis, their design is optimized. They are subject to repetitive driving tests of more 100,000 times, durability tests, impact resistance tests, corrosion tests and others. For a long time, gaps often occur in press molded products owing to serious squareness deformation and flatness deformation of them. Severe burrs in press molded products require frequent grinding, which leads to short life cycle and rough or unreliable movement of assembled roller housing, which, in turn, causes product defects. This study focuses on developing measures to resolve existing defects and to improve lifespan of dies by designing and making a window roller shearing die.
