A modeling program was developed in Part I which represents the 3-D geometry, produces bill of material, automatically draws drawings and produces input data for structural analysis of Very High-rise Steel Artificial Reefs(VEHSAR). Model tests were carried out to measure drag forces acted on VEHSAR in the Ocean Engineering Wide Tank, the University of Ulsan and structural analyses were made to simulate structural behaviors of VEHSAR. The integrated package system is suggested to design VEHSAR with different geometries.

The fatigue limit of an ion-nitrided steel was investigated experimentally and analytically. It is found that fatigue limit can singificantly be increased by ion-nitriding, and that the case depth is the most important parameter which determines the fatigue limit. The data indicate that fatigue limit increases with the case depth as well as the surface hardness of the nitrided steel. The fracrographs of the fracture surfaces taken by a scanning electron microscope show that the fisch-eye is located at the subsurface of failed specimens. Assuming that crack propagates from the subsurface inclusions, an analytical model is proposed to predict the fatigue limit. Taking into account the stress distrbution of a nitrided specimen, fatigue limit is predicted as a function of the case depth. The proposed semiemprical formula agrees satisfactorily with the experimental data obtained from rotating beam fatigue testing.

This study is concerned to the perforation phenomena of the oblique dual-plate by projectile. Experiment and simulation related to that was carried out. the variables considered in this phenomena include the electrolytic zinc coated steel sheet and carbon steel rod. In the former, the confirmation and projectile velocity possible phenomena of real phenomena is done, the latter, the effect of parameter such as time-step and grid space length is analized by using the three-dimensional Lagrangian explicit time-integration finite element code, HEMP. this code use the eight node hexahedral elements and in this study, Von-Mises Criteria is used as the strength model, Mie-Gruneisen is as the Equation of State. the simulation was performed by contrast with the experiment. through the calibration of the parameter of lagrangian code, reasonable result was approached.

Rectangular deep drawing process is widely used in sheet metal forming. But there are various defects such as earring, wrinkling, tearing, etc. In order to avoid the defects, an optimum blank shape is required. But it has not been generalized to determine the optimum blank shape because deep drawing processes are involved in complex process parameters. So, it is very necessary to do research systematically about determining the optimum blank shape of deep drawing process. In this study a rectangular cup drawing test has been carried out to determine the optimum blank shape for various stainless steel sheets. From the test, a new blank model, which has no earring, is proposed.

We present an optimum design method for a rectangular reinforced concrete beam using Genetic Algorithms. The optimum design procedure in this paper employs 2 design cases: i) all of the design variables (b, d, As) of the rectangular reinforced concrete section are used pseudo-continuously, ii) one is pseudo-continuous for the concrete cross section (b, d) and the other is discrete, using an index for the steel area (As). The optimum design in this paper uses Chakrabarty's model. In this paper, the Genetic Algorithms use the method of Elitism and penalty parameters to improve the fitness in the reproduction process, which leads to very practical designs. The optimum design of the steel area in the examples uses ASTM standard reinforcing bars (#3~#11, #14, #18).

Densification characteristics and behavior of tool steel powder compact during high temperature forming processes were investigated under pressure less sintering, sinter forging and hot isostastic pressing. In pressureless sintering, full density was obtained at a closely controlled temperature near the solidus of the material. Finite element calculations from constitutive model for densification by power law creep and diffusional flow were compared with experimental data. Agreements between theoretical calculations and experimental data were good in hot isostatic pressing but not as good in sinter forging.

The aim of this study is to analyze turning process using commercial FEM simulation code. Various simulation models of orthogonal cutting process for 3 layers of metallic material have been simulated and analyzed. The workpiece material used for the orthogonal plane-strain metal cutting simulation consists of three layers, which are Allow Tool Steel, Aluminum and Stainless Steel. The finite element model is composed of a deformable workpiece and a rigid tool. The tool penetrates through the workpiece at a constant speed and constant feed rate. As an analytical result, detailed cutting temperature, strain, pressure, residual stress for both a tool and each layer of workpiece were obtained during the turning process. It has been closely observed that the chip flow curve deforms continuously.

The rectangular deep drawing process is widely used in sheet metal forming, but there are various associated defects, such as earing, wrinkling, tearing, etc. In order to avoid such defects, an optimum blank shape is required. Such an optimum blank shape cannot be generalized because deep drawing processes are involved in complex process parameters. So, it is necessary to do systematic research to determine the optimum blank shape for the deep drawing process. In this study, a rectangular cup drawing test has been carried out to determine the optimum blank shape for various stainless steel sheets. From the test, a new blank model, which has no earing, is propsed.

In this study low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of 12Cr steel at high temperature are described. Secondly, comparisons between predicted lives and experimental lives are made for the several sample life prediction models. Two minute hold period in either tension or compression reduce the number of cycles to failure by about a factor of two. Twenty minute hold periods in compression lead to shorter lives than 2 minute hold periods in compression. Experiments showed that life predictions from classical phenomenological models have limitations. More LCF experiments should be pursued to gain understanding of the physical damage mechanisms and to allow the development of physically-based models which can enhance the accuracy of the predictions of components. From a design point-of-view, life prediction has been judged acceptable for these particular loading conditions but extrapolations to thermo-mechanical fatigue loading, for example, require more sophisticated models including physical damage mechanisms.

Evaluation of microstructural changes during open die forging of heavy ingots is important for process control. The objective of the control of forging parameters, such as shape of the dies, reduction, temperature and sequence of passes, is to maximize the forging effects md to minimize inhomogeneities of mechanical properties. The hot working die steel is produced by using the multistage open die forging. The structure is altered during forging by subsequent processes of plastic deformation, recrystallization and grain growth. A numerical analysis using an rigid visco-plastic finite element model was performed to predict microstructural evolution of hot working die steel.
