The design of sheet metal working processes is based on the knowledge about the deformation mechanism and the influence of the process parameters. The typical geometric process parameters are the die geometry, the initial sheet thickness, the initial blank shape, and so on. The initial blank shape is of vital importance in the most sheet metal forming operations, especially in the deep drawing process, since the forming load and the strain distribution are significantly affected by the shape of an initial blank. The influence of the initial blank shape on a square cup deep drawing process is investigated by the numerical simulation and the experiment. The numerical simulation is carried out by a modified membrane finite element method which takes bending deformation into account. The numerical and experi-mental results show that the initial blank shape have strong influence on the forming load and the strain distribution. The numerical results are compared with the experimental results and other numerical results which are calculated with the membrane theory.

An optimum blank design technology is required for near-net of net-shape cold forming using sheets. Originally, the backward tracing scheme has been developed for preform design in bulk forming, and applied to several forming processes successfully. Its key concept is to trace backward from the final desirable configuration to an intermediate preform of initial blocker. A program for initial blank design in sheet forming which contains the capabilities of forward loading simulation by the finite element method and backward tracing simulation, has been developed and proved the effectiveness by applying to a square cup stamping process. In the blank design of square cup stamping, the backward tracing program can produce an optimum blank configuration which forms a sound net-shape cup product without machining after forming. Another general application appears in the blank design of a cup stamping with protruding flanges, one of typical automobile components. The blank configurations derived by backward tracing simulation have been confirmed by a series of loading simulations. The approach or decision of an initial blank configuration presented in this study will be a milestone in fields of sheet forming process design.

본 연구의 목적은 2차원 유한요소법을 이용하여 변형과 열전달의 복합된 열소성 문제를 해석하여 재료의 성형성에 대한 가공열의 영향을 연구하는 것이다. 2차원 해석은 종래 단순 인장시험의 해석에 사용되던 1차원 해석에 비해 보다 정확한 해를 가지며 특히 넥킹의 발생 이후의 해석에 유용하다.

종래에 자동차 차체의 프레스 성형 공정은 설계자의 정성적인 계산이나 다이 (Trial Dic)에 의해 시행 착오 끝에 설계되었다. 그런데, 부정확하게 계산되는 경우가 많아, 아이가 준비된 후 단점이 노출되어 여러 차례 수정 과정을 겪게 되어 시간과 경비를 증대시키는 원인이 되었다. 자동차 회사에서는 이 때문에 금형 설계 단계에서 빠르고 정확하게 금형의 불량을 예측하고 성형성을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 시스템을 필요로 한다. 그중 비선형 유한요소법(F.E.M)에 의한 시뮬레이션은 정확한 해와 많은 정보를 줄 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나, 3차원적인 대단히 복잡하고도 치수가 큰 자동차 판넬에 있어서는 수렴성 등의 문제로 적절한 시간 안에 충분한 정밀도를 갖는 해를 구할 수 있는 단계까지는 이르지 못하고 있다.

The equivalent boundary conditions have been applied to the front door panel forming process, in order to demonstrate its reliability and validity. The elongation in the bead forming process is applied to the binder wrap process as the equivalent displacement boundary condition and the restraining force in the drawing process is applied to stamping process as the equivalent force boundary condition. The result calculated with the equivalent boundary conditions shows closer coincidence with the experimental result than simulation with different boundary conditions. The numerical result fully demonstrates that drawbead forming simulation for calculation of equivalent boundary conditions is necessary and effective.

가변성형 공정에서 동일한 크기의 성형펀치 배열로 구성된 가변금형을 이용하는 경우 펀치의 크기가 일정하여 성형 가능한 곡률 반경이 제한되기 때문에 비교적 유연성이 낮다. 이에 본 연구에서는 가변금형의 유연성을 높이기 위하여 분할가변금형에 대한 개념을 제안하였다. 임의의 성형면을 형성하기 위하여 두 가지 크기의 펀치로 구성된 펀치 블록을 착안하였다. 상대적으로 큰 곡률 반경을 갖는 성형영역에 대해서는 크기가 큰 펀치 블록을 적용하였으며, 작은 곡률 반경을 갖는 성형영역에 대해서는 작은 크기의 펀치로 구성된 펀치 블록을 적용하였다. 해석적 연구를 토대로 성형된 제품의 단면 형상을 비교하였으며 이로부터 서로 다른 크기의 펀치 블록을 조합하여 구성한 분할가변금형을 이용한 판재의 성형공정이 비교적 복잡한 곡률 반경 분포를 갖는 곡면 가공에 적합함을 확인하였다.

In order to find the effect of lubricant viscosity, sheet surface roughness, tool geometry, and forming speed on the frictional characteristics in sheet metal forming, a sheet metal friction tester was designed and manufactured and friction test of various sheet were performed. Friction test results showed that as the lubricant viscosity becomes lower, the friction coefficient is higher. When surface roughness is extremely low or high, the friction coefficient is relatively high. The result also show that as the punch radius and punch speed becomes bigger, the friction coefficient is smaller. Using experimental results, the mathematical expression between friction coefficient and lubricant viscosity, surface roughness, punch comer radius, or punch speed is also described.

A dynamic explicit finite element code for simulating sheet forming processes has been developed. The code utilizes the discrete Kirchhoff shell element and contact force is treated by a conventional penalty method. In order to reduce the computational cost, a new and robust contact searching algorithm has been developed and implemented into the code. In the method, a hierarchical structure of tool segments is built for each tool at the initial stage of the analysis. hierarchical structure is built in a way to divide a box to 8 sub-boxes, 2 in each direction, until the lowest level of the hierarchical structure contains exactly one segment of the tool or empty. Then at each time step, contact is checked from the box to sub-boxes hierarchically for each node. Comparisons of computational results of various examples with the existing ones show the validity of the method.

The material properties of laser welding zone such as strength coefficient, work-hardening exponent, and plastic anisotropic ratio are analytically obtained from those of base metals based on the tensile tests. . The finite element formulation is developed for predicting strain distributions and weld line movements in the forming processes of laser welded blank. The welding zone(WZ) is modelled with the several, narrow finite elements whose material characteristics are based on the experimental results and the analytical equations. In order to show an application of the developed weld element the stamping process of auto-body door inner panel is simulated. FEM predictions are compared and showed good agreements with experimental observations.

New program for springback analysis has been developed to predict the deformation of springback more accurately. Static implicit FEM is used to find out the static equilibrium after springback. The shell element with 6 dogrees of freedom and 4 nodes is carefully implemented to improve the accuracy and the compatibility between forming analysis and springback analysis. Co-rotational approach and Newton-Raphson nonlinear iteration are used to resolve the nonlinearity of large deformation. The benchmark results show that the developed program gives good predictions in comparison with experimental and other commercial S/W's results. As practical examples, U draw bending and S-rail problems are carried out by the developed program.
