Die-less forming is a cold forming process which is to bend thick flat plates into compound curved plates using two asymmetric rollers. This forming method has several advantages compared with line heating which is widely used to fabricate compound curved pieces in shipyards. The die-less forming, however, has scarcely been studied. Even the deformation mechanism in this forming process has not been understood clearly. So, in this paper, the deformation characteristics of die-less forming is investigated analytically and numerically. for the analytic investigation, slab method based on equilibrium equation is applied. And the mechanism of curvature generation is derived for the asymmetry in roller applied. And three dimensional numerical analyses are performed with realistic modeling of interactions between the rollers and work-piece using finite element program, ABAQUS. It is shown that curvature generation is mainly due to the difference of normal positive strain distribution between the top and bottom surface of the work-piece. And a convex-type curved plate is formed if the center region of the work-piece is rolled with asymmetric rollers of which the lower is larger than the upper in diameter.

The induction heating is more efficient for a plate bending because of its easy operation and control of working parameters, compared with the heating by a gas torch. The existing axis symmetric analysis method could neither handle initial curved plates nor be used in the optimization of coil shapes because of its limit of an axis symmetric coil shape. But the proposed method using some discrete part models and analysis processes could overcome these difficulties and show more accurate results in temperatures and deflections of flat or curved plates with initial curvature than those in the existing axis symmetric analysis method. This method is composed of the multi-disciplinary analyses such as an electro magnetic analysis, a heat transfer analysis and a deformation analysis based on inherent strain approach per each step. Traditionally, the coil shape in the induction heating is circular shape and it needs the moving process along heating lines. To overcome this, the 'Long Type Coil' with some linear parallel coils was proposed. It did not need the moving process along heating lines and reduced the heating process time. The results of experiments were compared with those of the simulation.

선체의 외판은 복잡한 곡면 형상이며 대부분의 조선소에서는 이의 제작을 위해 가스 토치를 이용한 선상 가열 방법을 사용하고 있다. 가스 토치를 이용한 전통적인 선상 가열 방법은 입열량의 제어가 어려울 뿐만 아니라 고압의 가스 분출에 따른 소음과 대기 오염 등 열악한 작업 환경의 문제점을 안고 있다. 최근에는 입열량의 제어가 비교적 용이하고 친환경적인 고주파 유도 가열에 주목하여 이를 가열 열원으로 하는 강판의 성형 자동화 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강판의 곡면 성형을 위한 유도 가열 시뮬레이션 방법을 개발하였으며 유도 가열 실험 결과와 비교하여 그 유효성을 검증하였다. 개발된 유도 가열 시뮬레이션 방법은 효율적인 유도 가열 코일 설계와 최적 성형 조건 산출 등 유도 가열을 이용한 선체 외판의 곡가공 자동화 시스템 개발에 유용한 해석적 툴로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In general, the forming process of the curved hull plates consists of sub tasks, such as roll bending, line heating, and triangle heating. In order to complement the automated curved hull forming system, it is necessary to develop an algorithm to classify the curved hull plates of a ship into standard shapes with respect to the techniques of forming task, such as the roll bending, the line heating, and the triangle heating. In the previous research, the classification algorithm of curved hull plates was studied only about rectangle shaped plates, and other limitations were notified. In this paper, the classification algorithm is extended to classify not only rectangle shaped plates but also arbitrary polygon hull plates. The discrete curvature can be computed by using arbitrary polygon mesh which is represented by half-edge data structure and discrete differential geometry. The algorithm tests to verify the developed algorithm with sample plates of a real ship data have been performed.

In shipyard, plate forming is widely used to form the ship hull plate in various shapes. Line heating method by using a flame torch is one of the major shipbuilding processes carried out by skilled workers. Since the forming characteristics depend upon their experiences in manual forming, there are much variations between products and difficulties in communication between engineers and workers. Hence, it needs to develop an automatic forming system which can not only reduce the working time and rework costs but also improve the working environment and hull forming productivity. One of the final goals of plate forming automation is to form a target shape from the initial plate automatically. For automated plate forming, it is required to determine where and how to heat on the plate. To realize this procedure, the inverse problem should be first solved and the effect of curvature shape formed at the heating path should be investigated. In this study, the inverse problem was solved by geometrical approach using the relationship between bending angle and radius of curvature of the curved shape. In addition, experiments of two-dimensional plate forming were performed with the distance-based method considering the curved bending with curvature. The result of the formed shape agreed considerably well with the target shape.

As a new technical approach, a hydraulic and magnetic clamp device was developed to realize a magnetic clamp crane system by simultaneously actuating eight individual hydraulic cylinders. In this approach, an Sr-type of ferritic permanent magnet (SrO· 6Fe₂O₃), rather than the previous electromagnet, was utilized for the purpose of lifting and transporting the large curved steel plates used for manufacturing ships. This study had the goal of developing and manufacturing a hydraulic, magnetic clamp prototype composed of three main parts, including the base frame, cylinder joint, and magnet joint, in order to safely transport curved steel plates. Furthermore, this research included a performance evaluation of the manufactured prototype and acquired the purposed quantity value in the performance test. The most significant item, the magnetic adhesive force (G), was evaluated in a performance test, which utilized a ferritic permanent magnet (Sr type) with 3700~4000 G of residual induction (Br) and 2640/2770 Oe of coercive force (Hc). In particular, relevant items such as the hoist tension (kN), transportation time (s), and applied load (Kgf) on the hydraulic cylinders were also evaluated in order to determine the optimum values.

In order to make a doubly-cowed sheet metal effectively, the sheet metal forming process has been developed by adopting the flexibility of the incremental forming process and the principle of bending deformation which causes slight deformation in thickness. The developed process is an unconstrained forming process without holder. The experimental equipment has been set up with the roll set which consists of two pairs of support rolls and one center roll. In order to analyze process parameters in the incremental roll forming process for the application to doubly curved ship hull plate, the orthogonal array is adopted. From the FEM results, among the process parameters, the distance between supporting rolls in pairs along the direction of one principal radius of curvature as well as the forming depth is shown to influence the generation of curvature in the same direction significantly. That is, the other distance between supporting rolls in pairs which are not located in the same direction of one principal radius of curvature, does not have an significant effect on the generation of the curvature in that direction. Also, the forming load and torque from the FEM simulation are acceptable to the system development of the incremental roll forming process for the forming of ship hull plate.

선체 외관을 이루는 판부재 중에서 일차곡만을 가진 부품은 피라미드 형의 롤러 굽힘장치를 이용하여 제작한다. 일차곡 부재를 생산하기 위한 공정에서 가장 중요한 작업 변수는 중앙 롤러의 수직변위값이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 굽힘 현상을 보의 탄소성 굽힘현상으로 모델링하여 해석해를 구하였으며, 엄밀한 역학적 이해를 위하여 유한요소해석법을 이용하여 굽힘현상을 해석하였다. 해석을 통하여 일정한 굽힘 곡률을 얻기 위한 중앙 롤러의 수직변위 값을 계산하였으며, 유한요소해석법은 보 요소와 평면변형율 요소를 이용하여 모델링하고 각각의 경우에 대한 해석을 수행하였으며 이 결과를 해석해와 비교하였다. 계산을 통하여 판에 가해야 할 굽힘곡률과 중앙롤러의 수직변위 사이의 관계를 도출하였으며 일차곡가공의 중요한 작업변수인 중앙롤러의 수직변위와 잔류곡률상의 관계를 수치 데이터로써 정식화 하였다.

선체 외판 제작을 위한 곡가공은 조선에 있어서 필수적인 공정이다. 프레스를 이용한 냉간가공과 가스토치를 이용한 열간가공이 주를 이루는데, 특히 숙련된 기능공의 작업 경험에 전적으로 의존하는 열간가공 공정에 대한 자동화 요구가 증대되어 국내외적으로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 향후 삼각가열에 대한 효율적인 변형해석 기법을 개발하기 위한 기초 연구로서 삼각가열에 의한 판의 변형특성과 그 주요인자를 파악하고자 하였다. 실제 조선소에서 현장조건 그대로 Jang 등(2001)이 실시한 일련의 삼각가열 실험 결과를 토대로 열탄소성 해석을 위한 수치해석 모델을 개발하고 상용 구조해석 프로그램인 ANSYS를 이용하여 삼각가열에 의한 판의 변형을 시뮬레이션하였다. 또한, 총 투입 열량이 같은 경우 선상가열과 삼각가열에 의한 변형 양상을 비교하여 각 가열법에 따른 변형 특성을 보다 명확히 하였다. 마지막으로, 단위부피당 투입열량에 따른 각 변형 성분의 변화 특성을 살펴보았다.
