초록

본 논문은 등가정하중을 이용하여 튜브 하이드로포밍 공정을 위한 최적설계를 제안한다. 튜브 하이드로포밍 공정의 최적설계는 유체의 압력과 축 방향 압입량에 대한 적절한 하중경로를 결정하고, 이를 통하여 성형해석 후 결함이 없는 원하는 형상의 제품을 얻는 것을 목적으로 한다. 그러나 기존의 등가정하중법은 하중을 설계변수로 고려하지 못한다. 또한 튜브 하이드로포밍 공정의 최적설계에서 고려하는 비선형 두께 응답을 고려하기 위한 최적화가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 튜브 하이드로포밍 공정의 최적설계에 적합한 새로운 등가정하중을 제시한다. 또한 새로운 등가정하중을 이용한 최적설계 프로세스를 제시한다. 제시한 최적설계방법의 사용 가능성은 예제를 통하여 확인한다.

An optimization method for the tube hydroforming process is developed using the equivalent static loads method for non linear static response structural optimization (ESLSO). The aims of the tube hydroforming optimization are to determine the axial forces (axial feedings) and the internal pressures, and to obtain the desired shape without failures after hydroforming analysis. Therefore, the magnitude of the forces should be design variables in the optimization process. Also, some tube hydroforming optimization needs to consider the result of the thickness in nonlinear dynamic analysis as responses. However, the external forces are considered as constants and the thickness is not a response in the linear response optimization process of the original ESLSO. Thus, a new ESLSO process is proposed to overcome the difficulties and some examples are solved to validate the proposed method.
