  • The precision cold forging process for steering yoke of automobile has been analysed by using rigid-plastic finite element analysis code DEFORM-3D Also the experiment has been performed through the optimized process. Until now steering yoke has been largely manufactured by hot forging or welding of forged head and shaft parts because of technical difficulty. the study has shown successful results of the precision cold forging through the proper selection of the process.

  • The yoke is used for joining the mechanical element of a spider and shaft in the steering system of automobiles. Conventional yoke forming processes are too complicated such as 4 stages bending and forming. The weight of yoke is also heavy than other components. New process is necessary to reduce the product weight to improve the strength and to reduce the costs. Process designed to reduce number of forming stages and to reduce its weight. To check the strength the stress analyses are performed between conventional yoke and developed one.

  • The development of lightweight car bodies is the most prominent issue in the automotive industry today, in preparation of environmental regulations such as reduction of CO$_2$ emissions. Also, with the recent implementation of mandatory off-set collision test, many studies have been carried out to enhance the safety of automobiles. Recently, TRIP(Transformation Induced Plasticity) steel has developed as a prominent alternative due to its high strength and superior elongation. In this study, TRIP steel weldability is evaluated with lobe curve, continuous spot welds, shunt effect, and weld of edge position.

  • In this paper, we calculate the premium rate of reliability insurance policy for brake pads for automobiles using real failure data obtained from use-condition. We try process capability analysis for the manufacturing process of brake-system. We describe the performance factors which have an effect on failure characteristics of brake pads. We also obtain the maximum likelihood estimates of shape and scale parameters of the fitted Weibull distribution for brake pads.

  • A wire harness is an assembly cables and/or wires to transmit signals between electronic assemblies in automobiles and electronic appliances. Inspection of such a wire harness is to check the sequence of assembled cabled each of which is identified by its own color. This paper presents an automated visual inspection system for wire harnesses incorporating back-propagation neural network as a color identification device. The tests performed by using real test specimens show that the inspection system works well enough.

  • This paper presents a non-destructive evaluation study on a radiator with cooling fins as a complex shaped specimen. Radiator structures are used in various heat exchangers, such as automobiles, air conditioners and refrigerators. An eddy current testing method, namely multi-frequency excitation and spectrogram method (MFES), was employed to detect a defect on the radiator tube surrounded by cooling fins. Overall, experimental results suggested that the influence of cooling fin is not as noticeable as that of the defect signals.

  • For the flow facing highly informationized age, there Is a flow from fixed communications connecting fixed places such as offices and homes to mobile communications connecting mobile objets such as automobiles, ships and aircraft. This flow has added to diversifying communications including data and images. While the fixed mode Is diversifying information media by digitalization of communications network and computers, the mobile mode has brought higher sophistication of communication modes by a higher degree of electric wave utilization. The following descriptions outlines the mobile communication which Is utilizing the electric wave phenomena. In sequence the following items are described: a brief history of mobile communications, the technical object and various kinds of services, propagation of electric wave signal.

  • Variable valve timing unit, which is able to decrease environmental load and improve fuel economy is loaded onto many automobiles recently. This unit consists mainly of sprocket, housing and rotor. These parts are requested different properties according to environment. We produce sintered parts for variable valve timing unit by selecting compact, sinter process and special treatment according to demanded properties. In this paper, demanded properties of sintered parts for variable valve timing unit and adopted technique to satisfy them are presented.
