The subframe has been generally manufactured by using stamped steel material. Recently, automotive designers are considering aluminum as lightweight material. This paper describes the development process of an aluminum subframe which is made by high level vacuum die casting process, which is beneficial for minimizing gas contents and material properties. The weight of manufactured subframe is reduced by 4kg with the comparison of steel subframe. The aluminum subframe is packaged for the current vehicle layout and the imposed requirement is to attain a better structural performance that is evaluated in terms of mounting stiffness, noise and vibration, and endurance performance. The NVH evaluation results show that sound level is decreased by 8dB with the help of high roll-rod mounting stiffness as well as high structural modes.

Even in the world wide automobile companies where a few simple modules are put into practical use, the front subframe modules of which performances of durability, NVH and crash are significantly important are under planing. In this study, design technology for the automobile front subframe module, which consists of an engine, a transmission and steering parts, structural components (frame, upper arm, lower arm and brake etc.) and rubber components(engine mount, axle mount and rubber disc etc.), was developed. A FEM-based analytical approach was used to evaluate the multiaxial high cycle fatigue damage of the front subframe module. Strain-life fatigue database system and expert system for fatigue properties of welded materials were developed. Stiffness values of the various rubber bushes mounted on the front subframe were evaluated by experimental method and FEM. TWB(Tailor Welded Blank) technology was applied to forming the cross member of the front subframe. Performance evaluations in relation to NVH and crash were conducted by using CAE technologies.

In the present study, subframe was developed using hydroforming technology. The manufacturing process for subframe consists of tube bending, pre-forming and hydroforming. The effects of bending process for manufacturing hydroformed subframe were researched. And the variables of bending process were studied by FEM simulation. The bending method is rotary draw bending that is the most popular, cost-effective bending method for thin walled tubes.

In this study, the subframe of passenger car is developed by typical analysis and carsh simulations. According this results, energy absorption and barrier froce is very important to control passenger safety and deformation shape. For that purpose, it is most effective to absorb energy more tailor welded blanks(TWB) subframe than non-TWB. The subframe with TWB is simulated, in which reduced stamping parts, weight reduction and cost down.

The light weight aluminum subframe for automobile chassis part was developed using hybrid process, i.e. extruforming, press stamping and MIG welding. To achieve a 30 % weight reduction compared with conventional steel subframe keeping satisfactory performance, the design of cross-section of extruforming part was introduced, then forming simulation was performed and the final design was determined. In addition, we tried to estibilish optimun aluminum welding conditions for good penetration depth and few pore defact, finally the prototype of aluminum subframe was assembled using MIG welding method.

The vibration of Powertrain are one of the import design characteristics of a vehicle. Powertrain is mostly mounted to the front subframe and powertrain mounting has an important role in determining the vehicle vibration characteristics. In this paper, the accuracy of the vibration analysis for the front subframe is discussed. The dynamic characteristic of subframe are measured from vehicle test and the finite element model updating are performed that natural frequency, mass and MAC of the experimental and theoretical modal analysis are compared. The subframe mounting stiffness are obtained the iteration method based on the vibration of subframe from vehicle test. Finally, the result of dynamic analysis which is operated dynamic load is compared with experimental one of vehicle test.

The aluminum Subframe for automobile was developed using hybrid process, i.e. extruforming and press forming. To achieve a $30\%$ weight reduction compared with convensional steel subframe keeping satisfactory performance, the design of cross-section of extrusion part was initiated, then forming simulation was performed and the final design was determined. In addition, we tried to estibilish proper aluminum welding conditions for good penetration depth and few pore defact, finally the prototype of aluminum subframe was assembled using MIG welding method.

본 논문은 type I 혼합-자동 반복 요구 (hybrid automatic repeat request: H-ARQ) 시스템에서 저밀도 패리티검사 (low-density parity-check: LDPC)로 부호화된 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing: OFDM) 서브프레임의 전송 순서를 균등 결합 전력이 할당되도록 조정한 재전송 방법을 기초로 성능 개선을 채널 용량을 사용하여 분석하고, 계층 복호 방법을 적용하여 H-ARQ 재전송 기법의 수렴 속도 개선을 확인한다. 구체적으로 임의의 서브프레임 재전송 패턴에 대하여 채널 용량이 클수록 비트오류율 (bit error rate: BER) 성능도 우수하다는 사실을 검증한다. 그러므로 각 서브프레임에 대하여 균등 결합 전력 할당을 보장하는 서브프레임 재전송 패턴은 채널 용량을 최대로 하며, 임의의 다른 서브프레임 전송 순서 조정을 통한 재전송 패턴보다 성능이 우수하다. 결국 균등 결합 전력 할당을 만족하도록 서브프레임 순서를 조정하는 재전송 방법은 기존 체이스 결합 (Chase combining)보다 복호 복잡도를 증가시키지 않으면서도 주목할 만한 성능 개선을 보인다.

As the demands for lightweight construction and precision grow, there is an increasing interest on hydroforming technology. This paper deals with designing automobile subframe for applying welded blanks hydroforming. In applying welded blanks hydroforming to automobile subframe, it is a serious problem that blanks wrinkle in deformed shape. To suppress wrinklings in blanks, the sections of the die where blanks wrinkled is modified. In addition to this, it is intended that the sum of thickness variation about wrinkling regions be minimized. For this purpose, parameters for influencing formability are selected and evaluated using orthogonal array. Among these parameters, parameters having a major effect on formability are selected again. Using CCD(central composite design) with the selected parameters, response surface is build up and optimal design is performed.
