In this paper, the cold extrusion process for internal spline forming using a thin and long tube has been analyzed by using a rigid plastic finite element code. The internal spline consists of 10 tooths. The cold extrusion process has been focused on the comparisions of load-stroke relation and filling states of the teeth according to design parameters. The design parameters involve extrusion ratio, extrusion angle and friction factor. The internal spline forming can cause the buckling and folding during the cold extrusion process because of using a thin and long tube. The optimum design parameters have been obtained through rigid-plastic finite elements analysis. The extrusion ratio and extrusion angle have great effects on the deformation characteristics of the cold extrusion process.

In this study, the seismic performance of connections between filled composite beam (CG beams) and forming angle composite (FAC) column was experimentally evaluated. First, the bending tests were conducted on two CG beams and the axial tests were conducted on two FAC columns. Then, based on these preliminary test results, the cyclic loading test were performed on two interior connections between CG beam and FAC column. The main difference of two specimens is the plate shape of the CG beam. The test results showed that both specimens achieved the maximum story drift capacity over 0.04 radian which is required for special moment frame.

High strength steels are widely used for lightweight automobile parts and the control of springback is very important in sheet metal forming. The object of this study is to develop the forming process for stair type side sill made of high strength steel, DP780. Stair type side sill with local formed area and geometry change area can improve stiffness and design freedom but there are a few studies for forming process. The forming technology considered in this paper is form type process, which have many advantages for farming of high strength steel compared with draw type process. Finite element analysis is carried out to predict formability and springback. It is shown that angle calibration of die is essential for reducing springback, and local forming involving bead is effective to control springback also. The effectiveness of local forming and angle calibration is verified by experimental.

In this paper, the serrated forming process is analyzed with finite element method. The seal should secure the overlapping portions of ligature, which has teeth for ligature to prevent from slipping each other after clamping. In the simulation, rigid-plastic finite element model has been applied to the serration forming process. Serration or teeth forming characteristics has been analyzed numerically in terms of teeth geometry based on different forming conditions. Analyses are focused to find the influence of different die movements and geometries on the tooth geometry, which is crucial for securing overlapping portions of ligature. Two major process variables are selected, which are the face angle and entry angle of punch, respectively. Extensive investigation has been performed to reveal the influences of different entry and face angles on the geometry of teeth formation in the simulation. Three different face angles of punch have been selected to apply to each simulation of serrated sheet forming process with every case of punch entry angles. Furthermore, tooth geometries predicted from simulation have been applied to the indention process for comparing proper tooth geometries to secure the sealing.

In this study, we investigated whether the interference occurring in forming roll surfaces could be eliminated by increasing the radius of the variable section forming rolls. The surfaces of the rolls capable of forming products with different flange heights and bend angles with the bend line tilted at an angle of 1° from the longitudinal axis were created using the general CAD software CATIA. Roll interferences were determined for the change in the forming roll radius. The minimum gaps between the upper and lower roll surfaces were measured for the change in the forming roll radius, and the roll interferences were calculated from the difference between the measured value and the thickness of the product. It was observed that the thickness of the product had a slight effect on the roll interference when the thickness was between 0.8 and 1.2 mm. It was also observed that the roll interference could be eliminated by increasing the roll radius.

The torsional forward extrusion is the process that is executed by punch travel and die rotation. The advantages of having the die rotation on this process are that forming load can be reduced and optimal die angle can be increased. This provides a possibility to extrude cold-worded material where a large extrusion force and die angle are required. Also, this process can improve the material properties owing to the high deformation and uniform strain distribution. The forming load and optimal die angle of this process are determined by the upper bound analysis using stream function and the optimization technique. To verify the theoretical result, we have carried out experiments and FE simulations using DEFORM3D.

Three-dimensional formability of the thermoplastic laminar composite was studied according to manufacturing conditions. Five different types of the plain weave fabric were used as reinforcement with PET matrix. The square blank was made by press consolidation technique and formed in the type hemisphere. B-factor defined as the ratio of width of yarn and distance between yarns was used as the factor of formability in the type of plain weave fabric. The formability of PET/Glass fabric laminar composite was estimated in terms of forming rate and B-factor with the thickness distribution, area ratio of blank, and intra-ply shear angle. The thickness distribution across hemisphere was strongly affected by the B-factor, forming rate and blank thickness. The area ratio of blank was increased with B-factor, forming rate and blank thickness. Also, it was found that the intra-ply shear angle depends on the B-factor and forming rate.

The sectional forming analysis considering bending effects from the geometrically deformed shape of two linear membrane finite elements(called super element) was performed under plane strain assumption for analyzing forming processes of an arbitrarily shaped draw-die. For the evaluation of bending effects, the bending equivalent forces are calculated from the bending moment computed using the changes in the interior angle at the middle node of super element, and are agumented to the membrane stretch forces. In order to verify the validity of the bending formulation, the simulation results for the stretch, draw, and bend sections were compared with membrane analysis results and measurements.

Hydroforming is a forming process enabling circular metal tubes to be produced in complex cross sections along curved axial paths. This forming process is widely used to manufacture parts in automotive industry. This paper presents bending and forming results to following angle of weld line positions. These compare to good bending, bad bending and without weld line model case. And then this result of after forming compare to each forming cases. The purpose of this paper is found that adaptive weld line position for bended final shape.

The roll forming produces mass products using the continuous production process. Also we need the process that continuous long material or goods cutting into a desired length. Our study uses 3-D driving cutter and roll forming material as SPCC to investigate this. When we cut the material using the process of roll forming, the shear resistance is raised at the cutting punch's edge. The result is remained the trouble about burr and progressive deformation on the material. This study shows the method minimizing the above trouble. The material of punch was considering heat generated on the continuous production process. So we used the type of STD 61 for the material of punch and had the vacuum heat treatment for the surface hardness of HRC 53. The structure of the mold is designed with forming a double cam die at the upper punch and the both sides of central core. We conducted the experiment three times. In the result when had to make V-groove within the angle between 105 and 110 on the punch front end, we could get the minimum shear resistance on the punch front end. Also with the same condition we minimizes the material jams in the continuous production process.
