최근 철도차량의 속도가 증가함에 따라 철도시설물에도 철근콘크리트 구조물이 많이 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 하지만 이러한 콘크리트 구조물은 공용년수의 증가에 따라 필연적으로 구조적인 보강이 요구된다. 강판보강법 및 섬유복합체(FRP)를 활용한 보강법 등이 가장 일반적으로 적용되는 실정이지만 각 공법마다 나름대로의 단점 역시 존재 한다. 최근 화재나 기타 환경적인 공격에 대하여 강한 내구성을 가진 재료의 개발이 요구되고 있으며 이에 따른 현무암으로부터 추출한 Basalt 섬유를 활용한 섬유보강재가 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Basalt 섬유쉬트를 보강재로 사용할 경우 중요한 특성인 콘크리트와의 부착특성에 관하여 연구를 수행하였다. 실험변수는 보강폭, 길이, 보강겹수를 포함한다. 실험결과, 파괴형태는 계면파괴, 섬유파단, 그리고 rip-off의 형태가 관측되었으며 보강길이보다는 보강폭이 보강강도에 더 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 보강길이가 전부 유효하게 작용하지는 않았으며 이에 유효보강길이를 산정하고 이에 따른 부착강도를 산정하였다. 이를 다른 종류의 FRP재료를 활용한 경우에 유효 보강길이와 비교하여 Basalt 섬유쉬트의 부착특성을 분석하였다.

Most of automobile member parts experience severe springback problems because of their complicated shape and high yielding strength. Now it becomes imperative to develop an effective method to resolve these problems. However, there remain several obstacles to get accurate estimation of dimensional shape. Especially the effective algorithms to simulate sheet metal forming processes including drawing, trimming, flanging and springback is demanded for the multi stage simulation of automobile member parts. In this study, for the purpose of accurate springback calculation, a simulation program which is robust in springback analysis is developed. Favorable enhancement in computation time for springback analysis by using latest equation solving technique and robust solution convergence by continuation method are achieved with the program. In analysis, the multi processes of rear side member are simulated to verify the system. For the evaluation of springback accuracy practically, all conditions including boundary conditions for springback analysis and inspection conditions for dimensional accuracy are applied. The springback results of simulations show good agreement with the experiments.

The very big springback of advanced high strength steel(AHSS) sheets invokes undesired shape defects, which can be generally eliminated by die correction or process parameter control. The springback reduction by controlling the forming process parameters is easy for the application, but limited for the bulky achievement. In this study, the effective die correction method, which obtains the modification of tool shape from the relationship between die design variable and springback, is introduced and is applied to the TWB tool of automotive side rail to show the validity and usefulness. Among the die correction trials repeatedly performed, the first trial is carried out by correcting the tool shape to the opposite direction to the springbacks of several tool sections. Next trials are done by extrapolating the springbacks of among the original tool uncorrected and the tools corrected negative amounts of the springback and by finding tool shapes without springbacks. After the angle of side wall and radius of curvature of horizontal bottom floor are chosen as design variables in the tool design of side rail, the tool shape is corrected 3 times. The accuracy of final shape within the assembly limit of 1mm and the springback reduction of 75.8% compared to the uncorrected tool are achieved.

Effect of process parameters on the quality of condenser discharge weld for coated sheet steels was discussed. The welding specimens were coated with pure Zn of 20/20 g/m2 in the production line. Direct measurements of welding parameters such as the discharge current, the pressures and the voltage drop across the electrodes were carried out with welding process monitoring system. High speed camera was also utilized to analyze the weld formation process. Test results indicated that the relation between weld strength and applied energy was stabilized at the acceptable welding heat input range. It was thought that the acceptable welding heat input should be redefined based on the monitored data because the calculated value of the welding heat input could hardly be utilized if the discharge condition was changed. Mechanical test results and high speed photographs showed that expulsion deteriorated the weld quality and the strength at the same time especially when the size of the spatter was large enough to carry the molten metal, which should form the nugget, out of the welding spot. Results also demonstrated that the discharge current should be applied at the appropriate time during the process because sufficient nugget was not produced if the time was deviated from the optimum range.

The effect and Condition of heat treatment on the tensile strength of welded joint was investigated in 300 grade 18% Ni-Co-Mo-Ti maraging steel sheets welded with electron beam. A good tensile strength of welded joint was obtained by following heat treatment cycle ; At $1100^{\circ}C$ the specimen was high temperature solution treated for 1 hour and then it was repeated solution treated at $900^{\circ}C$, $820^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour respectively to recrystallize the coarsened ${\gamma}$ grain. These heat treatment cycle was completed by an final aging heat treatment at $480^{\circ}C$ for 4 hour. Moreover, dissolution of dendrite, a significant decrease in seregation of Mo, Ti in weld metal were observed and also the coarsened ${\gamma}$ grain formed at $1100^{\circ}C$, $1200^{\circ}C$ changed to fine grain due to the effect of recrystallization.

Joining Al/Fe dissimilar metals is becoming a subject of special interest in the assembly of automotive parts as a trade-off between the weight lightening and the cost reduction. Although various studies have been introduced to join Al alloy with the steel sheet by fusion welding, weak joint strength and galvanic corrosion still remained as problems to be solved. As a solid state welding, friction stir welding has been preferred to fusion welding processes in the dissimilar metal joints. This study investigated friction stir spot welding (FSSW) of Al alloy to the thin steel sheet with a thickness of 0.65 mm. The conventional FSSW is a stationary spot welding process but new approach adopted an additional circumferential movement in company with high speed tool rotation. A full factorial experimental design was implemented, and the main and interaction effects of parameters were analysed on the failure load in the tensile shear test. The direction and radius of rotation were statistically significant parameters and these two parameters affected the joint width and the shape of the hook.

The resistance spot welding is one of the most commonly used welding process for joining the sheet metal in automotive manufacturing process due to higher deposition rates and higher economy achieved. Control variables in the resistance spot welding for achieving high quality are welding current, welding force and welding time. Generally at the manufacturing scene, welding current Vs welding time lobe diagram is used to estimate weldability because controlling welding force is not practical due to economical reasons. However new automotive steel plates have been developed to make lightweight automobiles and to improve resistance against rusting. Also the weldability of these steel plates are worst than the existing steel plates because of changing bare metal and surface plating effect. In consequence of above mentioned reasons, it is necessary to use welding force to present the lobe diagram. In this study, we obtained the welding force Vs welding current lobe diagram for commonly used GA steel plate and found that the second order repression model of tensile shear strength was useful in reducing the number of experiments, and the indentation, and thickness change during welding were used as a response to estimate quantitatively expulsion.

The current study is concerned with the prediction of fracture strains for DP980 steel sheets over a wide range of loading paths. The use of DP980 steel is increasing significantly in automotive industries for enhanced safety and higher fuel efficiency. The material behavior of advanced high-strength steels (AHSSs) sheets sometimes show unpredictable and sudden fracture during sheet metal forming. A modified Lou-Huh ductile fracture criterion is utilized to predict the formability of AHSSs because the conventional forming limit diagram (FLD) constructed based on necking is unable to evaluate the formability of AHSSs sheets. Fracture loci were extracted from three dimensional fracture envelopes by assuming the plane-stress condition to evaluate equivalent plastic strains at the onset of fracture for a wide range of loading paths. Three different types of specimens -- pure shear, dog-bone and plane strain grooved -- were utilized for tensile testing to calibrate the fracture model of DP980 steel sheets. Fracture strains of each loading path were evaluated such that there shows little deviation between fracture strains predicted from the fracture model and the experimental measurements. From the comparison, it is clearly shown that the three dimensional fracture envelopes can accurately predict the onset of the fracture of DP980 steel sheets for complicated loading conditions from compressive loading to shear loading and to equibiaxial tensile loading.

Self-piercing rivet(SPR)은 이종재료 접합을 위해 사용되는 결합용 기계요소로써, 대표적으로는 알루미늄 합금과 강판 등 용융점이 서로 다른 재료의 접합에 사용된다. SPR 접합은 일반 리벳접합과 달리 스스로 홀을 가공하며 삽입되기 때문에 사전의 홀 가공이 필요 없다.(1) 상부판재를 천공하고 하부판재와 함께 소성 변형되어 결합된다. 자동차의 차체 경량화를 위해서는 알루미늄 합금과 같은 경량소재가 사용되며, 부분적으로 스틸과 알루미늄 합금의 이종재료 접합이 요구된다. 그러나 알루미늄 합금과 강판은 용융점이 다르므로 기존의 차체 결합방법으로 이용되고 있는 저항 용접이 불가능하다. 이에 따라, 기계적 결합방법의 하나인 SPR 접합이 요구된다.(2) 따라서 본 연구에서는 강소성 유한요소해석 프로그램을 이용하여 리벳과 판재의 접합 성형성을 검토하고, 고장력 강판을 접합할 수 있는 새로운 형상의 SPR을 설계하였다. 또한 해석결과와 실험의 비교를 통하여 해석의 신뢰성을 검증하였다.
