Sandwich injection molding is one of the remarkable polymer processes recently developed from conventional injection molding. But it is almost impossible to do theoretical investigation that we've researched it through numerical simulation. In this paper, numerical simulation on the study of sandwich injection molding is based on Finite Element Method and FAN/Control Volume method. In addition to conventional filling parameter that can confirm skin polymer melt front, new filling parameters have been introduced to confirm core polymer melt front advancement. These filling parameters are defined in each layer which is divided to solve temperature field along the thickness direction. One can notice different filling patterns resulted from the variation of material properties such as viscosities and power-law indexes, and processing conditions such as switch-over times and wall temperatures. It gives us a better understanding of the sandwich injection molding process. And we can recognize that it's the core polymer spatial distribution after the completion of filling that is the most important key point to use this process for industrial molding process.

Ultra-high-strength steels (UHSSs) are widely used for lightweight automobile parts, and the control of springback is very important in sheet-metal forming. The object of this study is to verify the effects of multi-stage forming process parameters for U-channel-type automobile parts made of UHSS. Finite element analysis is carried out to predict the formability and springback. The main parameters considered for the multi-stage forming process are the die angle, die radius, and punch-forming direction. It is shown that multi-stage forming is very effective for reducing springback, and that a small punch-forming angle and die radius reduce springback, whereas the die angle does not have a large effect.

Using computer simulation, the processibility and properties of the inst겨ment panel of automobile produced by gas injection molding were predicted and evaluated. The P-V-T data of ABS, resin were used in the gas injection molding process in order to estimate the mold filling phenomena. The optimum process conditions were found by adjusting the process parameters including pressure, filling time, the positions of gas channel and runner. The process was simplified and the final instrument panel produced by the gas injection molding was found to have improved dimension stability compared to the one produced by conventional injection molding.

현재 각종 미사일의 추진기관용 연소관을 제작하는데 광범위하게 이용되고 있는 유동성 형공정에 대하여 강소성 구성방정식을 이용 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 종전의 단일 롤러에 의한 해석과는 달리 3개의 롤러에 의한 연소관의 점진 소성변형을 고려하였으며. 이에 따른 각 룰러의 연소관에 대한 소성변형, 응력분포가 관찰, 분석되었다. 해석 결과 예비성형체의 두께에 따라 소성변형 형태와 그에 따르는 응력분포에 많은 차이가 나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또 이상적인 유동성형 공정조건하에서 반경 방향으로의 연소관의 유효 소성변형도는 거의 균일하게 나타났다.

최근 항공기 및 자동차 관련산업 등의 급속한 발전에 따라 정밀도가 높고 결함이 없는 제품을 단기간에 생산하기 위한 금속성형공정의 가공법 및 해석 방법에 대한 연구가 활발하다. 금속성형공정에서의 주된 공학적 관심사는 원하는 형상의 제품을 내부결함없이 생산하기 위한 성형하중과 금속유동의 예측 및 응력분포 등이다. 그러나 해석적인 방법으로 실제 금속성형문제에 대한 완전해를 얻는 것은 매우 어려우므로 실제해에 근접한 근사해를 구한다.(중략)

Recently, research on the development of lightweight vehicle bodies is increasing continuously as a response to fuel economy regulations. To reduce the weight of a vehicle body, a conventional steel plate has been substituted by light weight material with high specific strength and the jointing of multi-materials is generally applied. On the other hand, the customer's demand for safety and emotional quality in NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) is becoming increasingly important. Therefore, a light weight with proper strength and NVH quality is needed. In the view of light weighting and NVH quality, the application of a vibration proof steel plate can be an effective solution but the formability of a sandwich panel is different with a conventional steel sheet. Therefore, careful analysis of formability is required. This study aims to characterize the formability of a sandwich high-strength steel plate. The high-strength steel plates of different thicknesses with resistance spot welding and sealer bonding were analyzed using forming limits diagram through a cup drawing test.

By the recently developed GMP(Glass Molding Press) process, aspheric glass lenses are widely used in many optical applications such as digital cameras, optical data storages and electrical devices etc. The GMP process can economically produce complex shaped glass lenses with high precision and good repeatability. This study deals the optimization of molding conditions for aspheric glass lenses in progressive GMP process through Design Of Experiment(Taguchi method). Tree main factors for molding conditions were selected based on pressure, temperature and cooling time at 1st cooling stage. From the analysis of experiments which were preformed with 3-cavity glass mold, it was revealed that the cooling time was the most sensitive parameter for form accuracy(PV) in progressive GMP process.

1985년 경에는 미국이 박판성형을 위한 FEM프로그램 개발의 중심이었으나 1990년에는 미국보다 유럽이 활발하다. 특히 독일과 프랑스가consortium을 바탕으로 연구회를 형성하여 체계적인 연 구를 시작하였고, 상당한 고가의 상업용 박판성형 해석 프로그램과 프레스금형 설계기술의 후 진을 예상한 때문인지 최근에 일본에서도 많은 산업체의 도움으로 종합 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 프레스 금형설계 기술을 혁신시키는 것을 목표로 하는 박판성형 공정 시뮬레이션 FEM 프로그램 개발은 종합적이고 넓은 분야의 협력을 필요로 하기 때문에 연구에 그룹화가 필연적이다. 현재 까지의 상태로는 완전한 3차원 FEM 성형해석은 이루어지고 있지 않으나, 3차원 성형해석을 위한 문제점, 특히 마찰문제, 공구와 재료의 접촉문제, 성형시의 불안정 현상의 해석에 대한 연구가 왕성하게 진행되어 수년 내에 실용화의 수준에 도달할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 과거 10여 년 전 부터 미국에서 개발한 것을 토대로 일본이나 유럽에서 여러 기업체가 포함된 consortium (예 : BRITE/EURAM Project, VW Project) 형태의 연구가 진행되어 매우 고가이지만 실용적인 3차원 박판성형 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어가 나오리라 예상된다.
