Sequential process of roll-bending and line heating has been used to deform the curved hull-plates in shipyards. A growing interest for the mechanization or automation of the line heating process has been noted. Relations between heating conditions and residual deformations are important components needed for the mechanization. The residual deformations are investigated by using a thermal elastic-plastic analysis based on the finite element analysis(FEA). Several experiments are also performed to examine the validity of the results of FEA. The input parameters of line heating are suggested by dimensional analysis of line heating. The dimensional analysis can extract the primary input-parameters of line heating. The relations between the heating conditions and the residual deformations are set up by multi-variate analysis and multiple-regression method. This study suggests a method for the relation between the heating conditions and the deformations lying under the line heating.

Pipe rolling process using the planetary rolling mill for AISI 304 stainless steel has been studied by using finite element method. Mannesmann method using three-roll is applied to this rolling process. Commonly, rolling process has started from the cold working and finished to the hot working. This rolling process has more advantage that make reduction of process and cost than existing extrusion process. This process includes various and complex process parameters. Each of the process parameters affects forming result. Therefore, all of the process parameters should be considered in FEA. In this study, possibility and productivity of forming pipe for AISI 304 stainless steel had been investigated. Also, preheating process and variations of rotation velocity and product thickness were considered in FEA. Rolling process for AISI 304 stainless steel pipe was successfully simulated and it should be useful to determine optimal rolling condition.

This paper describes an experimental study on fatigue life extension by using cold working process in fastener hole of aircraft structure. Cold working process was applied for A12024-7351 specimens by considering the effect of edge margin on fatigue life. It is generally recognized that cold working process offers a protective zone around fastener hole of aluminum aircraft structure due to the residual compressive stresses which lead to retardation of crack growth. Thus this process provides the beneficial effect of increasing the fatigue life of the component. there by decreasing maintenance costs. It has also been successfully incorporated into damage tolerance and structural integrity programs. Cold working specimens were tested at constant amplitude peak cyclic stresses. Fatigue life of cold working specimen compared with that of specimen fabricated with base material. The increase of fatigue life for cold working specimen is discussed by both considering the effect of residual compressive stresses measured by X-ray diffraction technique and quantitative effect of edge margin.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of cold working on the tensile strength of Fe-26Mn-4Co-2Al damping alloy. ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ and ${\varepsilon}$-martensite were formed by cold working, and martensite was formed with the specific direction and surface relief. With the increasing degree of cold rolling, volume fraction of ${\alpha}^{\prime}$-martensite was increased, whereas the volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite was decreased after rising to maximum value at specific lever of cold rolling. Tensile strength was linearly increased with an increasing of degree of cold rolling. Tensile strength was strongly affected to the volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite formed by cold working, but the effect of volume fraction of ${\varepsilon}$-martensite on the tensile strength was not observed.

Ti합금은 생체적합성이 우수하여 생체재료로 널리 사용되어 왔으며, 특히 Nitinol로 알려진 Ti-Ni합금은 형상기억특성 및 초탄성특성을 지녀 치열교정용 와이어나 혈관확장용 스텐트 등으로 사용되어 왔다. 최근 Ni과 같은 세포독성 합금원소의 용출가능성이 문제가 되어 Ni을 함유하지 않는 Ti합금이 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Ti-Nb-Ge 합금의 집합조직과 초탄성 및 기계적 특성의 관계를 고찰함으로써, 사용목적이나 요구특성에 부합되는 가공열처리방법을 도출하고자 하였다. 비소모전극식 진공아크용해장치를 이용하여 Ti-Nb-Ge 합금 버튼을 만들고, 이를 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 유지 후 얼음물에 급랭처리하였다. 이후 집합조직 제어를 위해 등속압연 및 이속압연의 두가지 방법으로 냉간압연한 후, $850^{\circ}C$에서 30분~2시간까지 열처리하였다. 광학현미경과 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 미세조직을 관찰하고, X-선 회절분석법을 이용하여 집합조직을 분석하였다. 또한 순환식 인장시험을 통해 시편의 초탄성 특성 및 기계적 성질을 평가하였다. 등속압연재는 {001}<110>에서 {111}<110>에 이르는 $\alpha$-fiber가 발달하는 한편, 이속압연재는 {001} 및 {111}가 발달하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 압연방향으로 <110>이 평행한 집합조직이 발달할수록 초탄성 특성이 높게 나타났다. 이는 응력유기 마르텐사이트 변태 시 $\beta$의 <110>방향이 $\alpha$" <010>방향으로 변할 때 길이가 증가하므로, 시편에 인장방향으로 <110>이 평행한 집합조직이 발달할수록 응력유기 마르텐사이트 변태가 용이해지기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of transformation induced martensite on the tensile properties of Fe-20Mn-12Cr-3Ni-3Si alloy. α' and ε-martensite were formed by cold rolling, and these martensite were formed with according to the specific direction, surface relief and partially intersection. With an increasing degree of cold rolling, amount of α'-martensite was slowly increased, whereas amount of ε-martensite was rapidly increased. Volume fraction of ε-martensite formed by cold working was large than α'-martensite. Tensile strength was rapidly increase and elongation was rapidly decreased with an increasing of degree of cold rolling. This means that tensile strengh and elongation was greatly influenced by the volume fraction of ε-martensite formed by cold rolling then α'-martensite.

In this paper, an application example for fitness-for-service of material is shown. A kind of instrument valve is made of austenitic stainless steel fabricated by the cold working process. The tensile strength of the cold worked austenitic stainless steel has to be limited under 90 ksi to prevent the stress corrosion cracking in power plants. In industrial fields, tensile strengths of some materials were discovered to be over the regulation requirements in a certified material test report (CMTR). Owner's verification tests were performed to compare with that in a CMTR and to check the appropriateness. It is found that, in the case of verification test under the required test speed, valve materials could be used in the field. Although it is only one application sample of material check process in the power generation site, this case study could show an importance of basic experimental technology in academia and research circles.

Closed-die forging of spur gears with hollow cylindrical billet has been analysed by using the upper-bound method. A kinematically admissible velocity field has been developed, wherein, an involute curve has been introduced to represent the forging die profile. In the analysis, the deformation region has been divided into nine zones. A constant frictional stress has been assumed on the contacting surfaces. Utilizing the formulated velocity field, numerical calculations have been carried out to investigate the effects of various parameters, such as module, number of teeth and friction factor, on the forging of spur gears. Hardness and accuracy of forged gears are measured. The following results have been obtained: (1) It is verified that an axisymmetric deformation zone exists between root circle and center of gear through forged gears. (2) The average relative forging pressure is predominantly dependent on the number of teeth and increases near the final filling stage as the addendum modification coefficient increases. (3) Close agreement was found between the predicted values of forging load and those obtained from experimental results.

Cold forging technology of a gear product is being interested in the dimensional accuracy, high stiffness and reduction of stress concentration. Especially it is needed to avoid the damage due to extremely high local pressure. Therefore it is important to ensure high pressure in die design. In this study, single die insert type and splitted die insert type are considered to recognize the notch effects in the die of sprocket forming. The stress concentration has been released at the notch area by the cushion effect in the splitted die insert.

The characteristics of the tool system give many effects into the costs and qualities for the finished components. Therefore, a tool life is one of the important issues on cold forging industry. However, since variables related with tool life are many complicated, the studies for solution should be investigated by the systematic research approach. The shape and process changes of die, the hardness changes of material and the tolerance of dies to decrease the die stress are analyzed by the FEM software. The heat-treatment of tool material is investigated to improve the tool life. Deep cryogenic treatment of tool steel is very efficient to improve the wear resistance due to the fine carbide. And, it is investigated that the shape and dimension of tool give effect into both tool life and quality of forged product..
