The automotive vehicle is made through the following processes such as press shop, welding shop, paint shop, and general assembly. Among them, the most important process to determine the quality of the car body is the welding process. Generally, more than 400 pressed panels are welded to make BIW (Body In White) by using the RSW (Resistance Spot Welding) and GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding). Recently, as the needs of light-weight material due to the $CO_2$ emission issue and fuel efficiency, new joining technologies for aluminum, CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) and etc. are needed. Aluminum parts are assembled by the spot welding, clinching, and SPR (Self Piercing Rivet) and friction stir welding process. Structural adhesive boning is another main joining method for light-weight materials. For example, one piece aluminum shock absorber housing part is made by die casting process and is assembled with conventional steel part by SPR and adhesive bond. Another way to reduce the amount of the car body weight is to use AHSS (Advanced High Strength Steel) panel including hot stamping boron alloyed steel. As the new materials are introduced to car body joining, productivity and quality have become more critical. Productivity improvement technology and adaptive welding control are essential technology for the future manufacturing environment.

본 연구에서는 쌍동형 카페리에 다수 존재하는 유공판의 좌굴강도 설계 수행 결과 및 개선사항을 논의하고 있다. 카페리와 같이 길이가 50미터 이상이고, 길이/폭의 비가 12보다 큰 중/소형 고속선박은 상대적으로 두께가 얇고 연강을 사용함으로서 좌굴강도가 취약해질 가능성이 농후하다. 특히, 작업자의 접근 및 통로로 활용되는 유공판에서 좌굴강도가 취약해질 가능성이 있다. 안전한 구조설계를 위해서는 유공주위의 면내 하중 재 분포에 의한 좌굴강도 및 최종강도에 대한 명확한 검토가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 유공판의 좌굴 및 최종강도 특성에 영향을 미치는 매개변수의 영향을 종합적으로 고려하기 위하여 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS를 활용한 비선형시리즈 해석을 수행하였으며, 주요 변수(종횡비, 유공비, 유공형상)들에 대한 영향을 검토하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 하여, 유공판의 좌굴강도를 결정짓는 가장 큰 인자는 유공비였으며, 종횡비와 유공의 형상은 그 영향이 미비하였다.

Diesel engines have many sliding parts with solid body contact. For example, a piston-ring and a cylinder bore, a valve and a valve-seat, a cam and a valve tappet. These parts have a severe wear problem. during engine life times. During these times, the valve tappet has abnormal wear such as scuffing and pitting due to a high hertzian contact stress between the cam and the tappet. Excessive wear problems frequently occur to both the cam and the tappet. To solve these problems, we developed an advanced wear resistant tappet. The developed tappet consisted of a hard-metal wear part and a steel body. To increase a bonding strength, those two parts, were directly bonded to each other. Also to decrease a bonding temperature, we developed the composition of Ni-binder materials in the hard metal. To estimate the wear characteristics of the newly developed tappet, we performed wear tests and engine dynamo tests in order to compare them with a conventional Fe-base tappet. As a result, the newly developed tappet has better wear characteristics than those of the conventional tappet. In addition, we performed a 100,000km field-test, and the newly developed tappet showed much improved wear resistance.

Most of the fatigue fractures of various machine structures start at discontinuities or small defects. In this study property of crack growth of titanium alloy was also analyzed to investigate the difference compared with the carbon steel. Titanium alloy has very high specific strength, and the material is widely utilized in advanced engineering fields such as aerospace, atomic energy and ocean development because of its excellence in corrosion and heat resistance. Generally the machine structures experience irregular loadings rather than periodic forces. The prediction of the fatigue life therefore has been analyzed to provide fundamentals of the design and estimation of the machine structures under irregular loading conditions.

Optimization is carried out to determine process parameters which reduce the amount of springback and improve shape accuracy of a deep drawn product in sheet metal forming process. The study uses the amount of stress deviation along the thickness direction in the deep drawn product as an indicator of springback instead of springback simulation. The scheme incorporates with an explicit elasto-plastic finite element method for calculation of the final shape and the stress deviation The optimization method adopts the response surface method in order to seek for the optimum condition of process parameters such as the blank holding force and the draw-bead force. The present scheme is applied to design of the variable blank holding force in an U-draw bending process and the application is further extend ε d to the design of draw-bead force in a front side member formed with advanced high strength steel (AHSS) sheets of DP60. Results show that design of process parameter is well performed to decrease the stress deviation through the thickness and to reduce the amount of springback. The present analysis provides a guideline in a design stage for controlling the springback based on the finite element simulation of the complicated parts.

Nowadays, the trend to a lightweight design accelerates the use of advanced high strength steel (AHSS) in automotive industry. Springback phenomena is a hot issue in the sheet metal forming, especially bending process using AHSS. Several analytical methods for that have been proposed in recent years. Each of method has their advantages and disadvantages. There are only a few optimal solutions which can minimize the two objectives simultaneously. In this study, an effective method optimized the multi objective value. The method by the design of experiments(DOE) and artificial neural network(ANN) was presented to compensate springback of bending parts. This method was applied to L and V bending process. The effective method could be optimized to multiple object. It was confirmed that the proposed method was more efficient than traditional manual FEA procedure and the trial and error approach for springback compensation.

본 연구는 차량경량화를 위하여 높은 인장강도와 우수한 인성을 가지는 590MPa급 이상조직강(Dual phase steel)을 이용하여 1991년 TWI(The Welding Institute)에서 개발된 마찰교반접합을 적용하여 접합을 실시하였다. 접합의 공정조건으로 툴의 회전속도는 250~350 RPM, 접합속도로는 50~350 mm/min로 겹치기접합을 실시하였다. 접합에서 사용된 툴은 Megastir에서 제작한 고융점마찰교반접합용 툴인 PCBN(Q-60)을 이용하였고 연구에 사용된 DP590은 포스코(POSCO)에서 제작된 1.4t(mm) 두께인 AHSS(advanced high strength steels)을 사용하였다. 모재인 DP590과 접합체의 미세조직은 광학현미경과 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였으며 기계적 특성은 경도시험과 인장시험을 실시하여 조사하였다. 경도의 분포는 모재에서 약 220~230Hv이며 TMAZ부분에서 상승하기 시작하여 접합부에서 약 320Hv까지 상승하는 경향을 보였으며 인장시험 결과 접합속도 100~200 mm/min에서는 모든 시편이 모재에서 파단되어지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 위와 같은 결과 300~350 RPM, 100~200 mm/min의 공정조건에서는 접합이 성공적으로 이루어졌으며 차량경량화에 적용이 가능하다고 판단되어진다.

The gas atmosphere in continuous annealing and galvanizing lines alters both composition and microstructure of the surface and sub-surface of sheet steel. The formation and morphology of the oxides of alloying elements in High Strength Interstitial Free (HS-IF), Dual Phase (DP) and Transformation-Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels are strongly influenced by the furnace dew point, and the presence of specific oxide may result in surface defects and bare areas on galvanized sheet products. The present contribution reviews the progress made recently in understanding the selective formation of surface and subsurface oxides during annealing in hot dip galvanizing and conventional continuous annealing lines. It is believed that the surface and sub-surface composition and microstructure have a pronounced influence on galvanized sheet product surface quality. In the present study, it is shown that the understanding of the relevant phenomena requires a combination of precise laboratory-scale simulations of the relevant technological processes and the use of advanced surface analytical tools.
