The drawbeads, which are used for controlling the flow of the sheet into die cavity by imposing the tension and for preventing the forming defects like wrinkling, springback, etc. during the sheet forming process, affect the formability strongly because of the differences in the restraint and opening forces according to the drawbead shapes and dimensions. In this study, the experimental device enabling to measure the drawbead restraining and opening forces is manufactured and the drawing forces of circular, square, and step drawbeads are measured. The drawbead restraining and opening forces of a circular drawbead are increased as its drawbead height is increased. Similarly, those of a square drawbead are increased as its height is increased and shoulder radii decreased. The drawbead forces obtained from the experiment were compared with those calculated in the numerical simulation of stamping process of automotive fender. Good agreement was found so that the experimental measurements can be used in the simulation of auto-body stamping process.

Numerical calculation tools for forging of gear-like components based on kinematically admissible velocity fields for upper bound method applicable to various deformation features of workpiece in forging processes were suggested. Each one of them deals with unidirectional flow of metal on dies, such as external involute spur gear. square spline, internal serrations. A complex calculation tool of gear-like component forging process was built up by combining these kinematically velocity fields. In this paper the workpiece with 110th external and internal teeth is divided into two parts. The deformation of each part is analyzed simultaneously using numerical calculation tool from combined kinematically admissible velocity field. The experimental set-up was installed in a 200 ton hydraulic press. As a result, each kinematically admissible velocity field could be combined with others and the calculated solution are useful to predict the capacity of forging equipment.

The metal flow and the strain distribution is investigated for the steady state and non-steady state bulk deformation processes by using an improved visioplasticity method which includes the effective smoothing scheme. The comparison of various smoothing schemes leads to the selection of the five- point least square smoothing method which is employed to reduce the measurement errors. As a steady state forming process experiments are carried out for axisy- mmetric forward extrusion through conical and curved dies of various area reduc- tions using Aluminum and steel billets. Axisymmetric backward extrusion is chosen for a nonsteady state forming process. In axisymmetric forward extrusion the results from visioplasticity show that the curved die of a fourth-order polynomial renders more uniform distribution of strain rates and strains. Higher reduction leads to greater strain rates at the outer side of the billet. The visioplastic observation for axisymmetric backward extrusion as a non-steady state deformation process shows the concentration of higher strain at the inner wall of the extruded product. The visioplastic results in forward extrusion are in agreement with the computed results by the finite element method. It is thus shown that the visio- plasticity combined with a smoothing technique is an effective method to determine the pattern and the distribution of strain rates and strains.

The necessities for heightening fuel efficiency as well as lightweight design, lead to an increase of the use of aluminum alloys in the automobile industry. Extruded aluminum profile channels are used widely for the design of frame parts as lightweight assemblies, especially if a high stiffness is needed. While many applications can be realized with forming of hollow square-sectioned extruded profiles such as a stretch bending and a hydro-forming, some applications demand the use of a press bending which can be hardly found in the previous study. In this study, by introducing the use of a press bending into car sub-frames, the demands for higher accuracy as well as higher flexible method than the conventional methods will be satisfied. With respect to the design of sub-frames, the process planning was performed from the shape of a sub-frame product. The designed processes were analyzed by the commercial FEM code, DEFORM-3D. Forming dies for the each process were designed and prototypes of sub-frames were manufactured by the verified farming process. In addition, some of the important features of design parameters in the press bending were reviewed.

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the internal fit of two different temporary restorations fabricated by dental CAD/CAM system and to evaluate clinical effectiveness. Methods: Composite resin tooth of the maxillary first molar was prepared as occlusal reduction(2.0mm), axial reduction(1mm offset), vertical angle(6 degree) and chamfer margin for a temporary crown and duplicated epoxy die was fabricated. The epoxy dies were used to fabricate provisional restorations by CAD/CAM milling technique or 3D-printing technique. The inner data from all crowns were superimposed on the master die file in the 'best-fit alignment' method using 3D analysis software. Statistical analysis was performed using a Wilcoxon's rank sum test for differences between groups. Results: It showed that the internal RMS(Root Mean Square) values of the additive group were significantly larger than those of other group. No significant differences in internal discrepancies were observed in the temporary crowns among the 2 groups with different manufacturing method. Conclusion: All the groups had the internal fit within the clinical acceptable range (< $50{\mu}m$). The continuous research in the future to be applied clinically for the adaptation of additive manufacturing technique are needed.

목적: 본 연구는 치과용 모형 스캐너를 이용하여 단일 전장관과 3본 고정성의치 모형을 스캔하는 과정에서 지대치의 중첩 과정이 최종 가상 모형에 미치는 영향을 알아보려 하였다. 재료 및 방법: 평가를 위해 단일 전장관과 3본 고정성의치를 위한 석고 모형을 제작하였다. 그리고 Pindex system을 이용하여 핀 작업된 모형을 제작하였다. 기준 스캔 데이터(CAD Reference Model)와 실험 스캔 데이터(CAD Test Model)를 획득하기 위해서 치과용 모형 스캐너(E1, 3Shape A/S, Copenhagen, Denmark)를 이용했다. 기준 스캔 데이터는 지대치를 분할한 후 탈착하지 않고 스캔하였다. 그리고 실험 스캔 데이터는 분할된 지대치를 분리하여 스캔 후, 기준 스캔 데이터에 중첩되었다(n = 20). 마지막으로 3차원 검사 소프트웨어(release 2018.0.0; Geomagic control X; 3D Systems)를 이용하여 root mean square (RMS)를 분석하였고, 통계 분석은 Mann-Whitney U test를 사용하였다 (${\alpha}=.05$). 결과: 단일 전장관 지대치의 RMS 평균은 $10.93{\mu}m$, 3본 고정성의치 지대치의 RMS 평균은 $6.9{\mu}m$가 나왔다. 두 그룹의 RMS 평균값은 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보여줬다 (P < .001). 또한 두 그룹의 양(positive)과 음(negative)의 오류는 단일 전장관 지대치는 $9.83{\mu}m$, $-6.79{\mu}m$, 3본 고정성의치 지대치는 $6.22{\mu}m$, $-3.3{\mu}m$의 평균값이 나왔다. 두 그룹의 양과 음의 오류 평균값은 통계적으로 모두 3본 고정성의치 지대치가 단일 전장관 지대치보다 통계적으로 유의하게 낮은 값을 보여주었다 (P < .001). 결론: 핀 작업된 모형의 스캔 과정에서 지대치의 개수가 증가하여도 지대치의 중첩에 의한 오류는 증가하지 않았다. 또한 단일 전장관 지대치에서 유의하게 높은 오류를 보였지만 임상적으로 허용 가능한 스캔 정확도의 범위에 있다.
