  • A motorcycle helmet is the best means to protect the head of bike's driver and it is directly connected to a driver's life. Prior to producing of the helmet, it has to be passed the process of impact test to evaluate of its safety. This test evaluates peak acceleration and H.I.C (Head Injury Criteria). This paper analyzes impact test with finite element method to find the behavior of helmet during the test. Also, the effect of impact sites on the helmet was evaluated to improve the thickness distribution of the helmet.

  • This paper discussed an optimal designs of 2 pole fan motors in refrigerator using a Niching Algorithm. We applied a Niching method to multi-objective optimal design of air gap construct. This Niching genetic algorithm is called "Restricted Competition Selection"(RCS) that is suitable for real world problem such as shape or structural optimization of electromagnetic device. The finite element method being used for nonlinear numerical characteristic analysis is provided exact solution in the system. Through this process is reduced the cogging torque ripple in air gap.

  • Numerical identification of synthetic d-q flux linkage, representative parameters for analyzing interior buried PM synchronous Motor(IPMSM) with distinguished magnetic saturation, has been peformed. Particularly, numerical identification of synthetic flux linkage using modified Finite Element Method(F.E.M) has been taken cross-magnetization of multi-layered PM configuration into consideration. Futhermore, experimental identification on the purpose-built prototype has been made to verify the validity of the numerically identified synthetic d-q flux linkages.

  • This paper presents a parallel algorithm for the finite element analysis using relatively inexpensive transputer parallel system. The substructure method, which is highly parallel in nature, is used to improve the parallel computing efficiency by splitting up the whole structure into substructures. The proposed algorithm is applied to a simple two-dimensional magnetostatic problem. It is found that the more the number of transputer is increased, the more the total computation time is reduced. And the computational efficiency becomes better as the number of internal boundary nodes becomes smaller.

  • This study has been performed to investigate the stress distribution around defects that behave as stress concentrators. Besides, the effect of stress interaction effects on the initiation of primary cracks were also investigated by rotary bending fatigue tests which were performed with specimens drilled micro surface defects and the stress distribution was analyzed using Finite Element Method. In addition, the stress interaction effects around defects and cracks were investigated by comparing the results of experiments and F.E.M. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; 1) Area which slip and micro cracks initiated at micro surface defects is between the maximum shear stress points and this area is over than ${\pm}30^{\circ}$ from the maximum stress point along the defect edge. 2) The stress interaction effect for the small size defect is larger than that of large size defect when the interval between them is near 3) Interval which there is no shear stress interaction effect analyzed by F.E.M. is larger than that of experimental results.

  • A new axisymmetric crack model is proposed on the basis of p-version of the finite element method limited to theory of small scale yielding. To this end, axisymmetric stress element is formulated by integrals of Legendre polynomial which has hierarchical nature and orthogonality relationship. The virtual crack extension method has been adopted to calculate the stress intensity factors for 3-D axisymmetric cracked bodies where the potential energy change as a function of position along the crack front is calculated. The sensitivity with respect to the aspect ratio and Poisson locking has been tested to ascertain the robustness of p-version axisymmetric element. Also, the limit value that is an exact solution obtained by FEM when degree of freedom is infinite can be estimated using the extrapolation equation based on error prediction in energy norm. Numerical examples of thick-walled cylinder, axisymmetric crack in a round bar and internal part-thorough cracked pipes are tested with high precision.

  • In cold forging die the shrink fitting is generally used to decrease stress and increase die life. In this paper we have studied about the effect of fitting type, When the die insert is splitted into several pieces the maximum stress could be decreased as much as 50~70% The fitting angle could be selected to minimize the maximum stress and the variation of stress on loading and unloading, . In F, E.M result in case 3。 fitting angle the maximum and variation of stress may be minimized.
