The AutoForm previously used the membrane element and it accomplished sheet metal forming analysis. The membrane analysis has been widely applied to various sheet metal forming processes because of its time effectiveness. However, it is well-known that the membrane analysis can not provide correct information for the processes which have considerable bending effects. In this research experimental results were compared with the analysis results obtained by using the shell element which is applied newly in the AutoForm commercial software. The shell element is a compromise element between continuum element and membrane element. The Finite element method by using shell element is the most efficient numerical method. From this research, it is known that FEA by using shell element can predict accurately the problems happened in actual experimental auto-body panel.

Purpose of this study is to investigate the size-dependent mechanical properties in micron scale medium. Theories such as the couple stress theory and strain gradient theory explain that the deformation in the micron scale is dependent upon the size of the medium. Specimens of the cantilever type, bridge type and paddle type beam that have thickness of 900, 1000 and 1200 nm and width of 10, 20, 30 and $50{\mu}m$ were fabricated by the MEMS technique. We carried out the bending and torsion test to measure the mechanical properties such as the young's modulus, yield strength and torsional rigidity using the AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy).

Currently tube hydroforming has many studies and applications in manufacturing industry, especially in automotive industry. But tube hydroforming was applied to the automotive component with simple shape. So the manufacturer and the researcher proposed additional processes to form the automotive component with complex shape. It is prebending and preforming. Prebending is to crush bend or rotary draw bend a tubular blank into a shape that facilitates placement into the next forming tool. Preforming is where the prebent tube is crushed into a shape that facilitates placement into the final forming tool. This paper analyzed and compared to the tube hydroforming process to using of general and preformed bending tube, also explained the importance of tube bending and preforming process. The explicit finite element program PAM-STAMP$\^$TM/ was used to simulate the tube hydroforming operations.

The calculation method which takes into account the shear lag effects on the ultimate transverse bending moment of a SWATH(Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) ship has been developed. In case of the ultimate bending strength analysis of conventional monohull ships and general box girder structures, the hypothesis that plane section remains plane after bending can be employed but not in the case of the structures having wide flange. For the ultimate bending strength analysis of such structures, a new method which can take into account the effect of shear lag on the ultimate bending strength has been developed by adopting more reasonable assumption that warping distortion of the section takes place inthe same way as the actual stress distribution. Finally, the proposed method has been applied to a a SWATH cross deck structure.

본 연구에서는 연성손실계수가 구조물의 진동에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 세부시스템의 두께가 동일할 경우 평판으로 이루어진 구조물이 접수되면 연성손실계수가 감소하게 된다. 특히, 저주파수 대역에서 연성손실계수가 크게 낮아졌다. 그 주된 원인은 접수로 인해 평판에서 전파되는 굽힘파의 그룹속도가 줄어들기 때문이며, 접수로 인한 파워투과계수의 변화는 크지 않았다. 내부에 격벽을 가진 steel box에 공기중 연성손실계수와 접수시 연성손실계수를 적용하여 세부시스템의 속도를 구한 결과, 공기중 연성손실계수를 이용하여 구한 속도가 접수시 연성손실계수를 이용하여 구한 속도보다 약 2-3 dB정도 높게 나타났다. 선박과 같은 복잡한 구조물인 경우 연성손실계수에 의한 속도 차이는 더욱 커질 것으로 추정된다. 따라서, SEA를 이용한 접수 구조물의 진동해석에서 해석오차를 줄이기 위해서는 연성손실계수에 접수의 영향을 고려해 주어야 함을 확인하였다. 특히, 접수효과가 고려된 연성손실계수를 사용하면 SEA가 큰 오차를 보이는 중, 저주파수 대역에서 해석 결과에 대한 신뢰성을 높일 것으로 판단된다.

Sandwich structure is widely used in various fields of industry due to its excellent strength and stiffness compared with weight. We studied the sandwich structure which has honeycomb core type. We are concerned about its buckling and bending stress with respect to its side length, thickness and the height ratio of its unit core. After obtaining the buckling critical load of unit core, we applied it to the sandwich structure to observe the bending behavior. When we compared the buckling with bending stress under buckling critical load, we observed that models of which length ratio of unit honeycomb core, A, is lower than 0.04 and the thickness of core, t, is thicker than 0.09 mm, is subjected to the ultimate stress by bending before buckling.

Computer Simulation based of divided element method was done to predict strip shape in20-high Sendzimir Mill and has been used to find a way for preventing quarter waves occurring in the wide and thin gaged strip rolling. The simulation showed that it was difficult to prevent quarter waves by the existing methods of controlling actuators such as the shifting of the first intermediate roll and the profile control of As-U-Roll in back up roll. It was, however, confirmed analytically and experimentally that quarter waves could be effectively reduce by changing taper mode at the barrel-end taper radius of the first intermediate roll.

This paper is concerned with the development of a general model for predicting material damping in laminates based on the strain energy method. In this model, the effect of interlaminar stress on damping is taken into accounts along with those of in-plane extension/compression and in-plane shear. The model was verified by carrying out the damping measurements on $90^0$ unidirectional composite beams varying length and thickness. The analytical predictions were favorably compared with the experimental data. The transverse shear($$\sigma$_{yz}$) appears to have a considerable influence on the damping behaviors in $90^0$ unidirectional polymer composites. However, the other interlaminar stresses($$\sigma$_{xz}$, $$\sigma$_z$) were shown to have little impact on vibration damping in $90^0$ laminated composite beam.

The aluminum tube hydroforming is a manufacturing process which can provide lightweight components as automotive parts. In this paper, the hydroformability of aluminium tube in different condition of bending process is presented. An investigation has been conducted on how to control the deformed shape and its effect on thinning distribution after hydroforming by using finite element simulation. Finite element simulation of tube hydroforming for automotive trailing arm is carried out to explore the effect of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional bending.
