The process variables i.e. the speed of forming, the ratio of thickness to diameter the shape of formed materials and the reduction of area were selected in order to study the process of the rotary swaging. It was found that the process variables affected the quality of products, i.e. the hardness the surface roughness and the degree of precision of products. Variation of hardness in deformed samples was mainly dependent on the reduction of area. Upon forming tubes applying the t/D ration higher than 1/10 led to the formation of defects on products which may be reduced by application of mandrels.

In this paper, a new approach to finite element analysis for tube swaging is presented. An analysis model is developed with emphasis on the pusher that imposes back pressure in order to keep the workpiece from slipping along the die-workpiece interface especially when tapered dies are used. A rigid-plastic finite element method is employed. The approach is to simulate the tube swaging process and the results are compared quantitatively with predictions, showing close agreement with each other.

In this paper, the stress and deformation characteristics of the high pressure hose that have the hose components such as rubber, braid and steel( sleeve and nipple) during the manufacturing process, and analyzed using the [mite element method The swaging process is modeled with a contact problem in identical conditions of real circumstances, and the properties of hose materials based on the experimental data are used in this analysis. Also, to understand the effect of the nipple protrusions on the deformation characteristics of a power steering hose among the steel materials shape of the existing model, and changed the steel materials shape partially, and compared with the existing model.

It's necessary to invent a measure to deal with expected counter results when observing mechanical behaviors under the various operations and it can be done by measuring the stress and deformation characteristics of the Automotive Air-Conditioner Hose, which is a hose made up of a rubber hose, an aluminum sleeve and pipe. In this paper, characteristics of the stress and deformation characteristics of the Automotive Air-Conditioner Hose which plays an important role in circulation of refrigerant of an air conditioner in an automobile are analyzed using the finite element method.

Rotary swaging is a process for reducing the cross-sectional area or changing the shape of bar, tube or wires by repeated radial blows with one or more parirs of opposed dies. The present study is concerned with investigation the effect of process parameters upon product quality(hardness, roughness, precision of dimension). To enhance the product quality, experimental works are carried out for some process parameters such as forming speed, billet shape, lubrication, reduction of area and ratio of t/D. Rod shift formed by RSM25 under cold conditions has good surface quality, hardness and precision of dimension. The recommendable process conditions are suggested for solid and tubular products.

It is necessary to analyze the mechanical behaviors of the power steering hose, which must play a proper role under severe operating conditions, in order to prepare a preventive measure fur contrary effects expected in unfavorable circumstances. In this paper, the stress and deformation characteristics of the hose components such as rubber, sleeve, nipple and reinforced braids during the swaging process, are analyzed using the finite element method. Contact conditions identical to the manufacturing process are taken into account, and the material properties based on experimental data are used in the analysis. Investigations into the mutual relations between the manufacturing conditions and the hose performances are done with respect to the jaw stroke on the basis of the stress and strain values of the hose components after swaging process.

A monobloc TDS(Tube Drive Shaft) has been developed by using the rotary swaging process which is one of the incremental forming process. In order to estimate the developed TDS performance characteristics such as natural frequency, strength, stiffness and mass, finite element analysis has been carried out using commercial software, MSC/NASTRAN. The calculated performance characteristics have been compared with analysis results of SDS(Solid Drive Shaft) to know how much improve the performance characteristics. Also the sensitivity analyses of design parameters for the tube length and diameter have been performed. From the analysis results, it was found that the TDS allowed for a high frequency and could be designed to be much lighter than SDS. This advantage can give possibility to tune the NVH (Noise-Vibration-Harshness) characteristics.

Cable member in structure is tension systems in which the load carrying members transmit loads to support system by tensile stress with no compression or flexure allowed. Cable system have been widely used large span structure roof, air-supported structure, prestressed membrane, cable network roof, suspension structures, guyed tower, ocean platforms, suspension bridges. Cable member can transmit loads by the edge connected system such as socket, swaging, mechanical splice sleave, clip, wedge, loop splice etc. This study will shown an experimental results on the strength of connection socket of cables. In the results of experiment, most of cable connection specimen occurred the failure at the connection socket part before the cable arrived at tensile failure load.

The automotive air conditioning hose is used for connecting the components of air conditioner in a vehicle. The hose is usually manufactured by the swaging process to connect the rubber hose with the metal fitting at the end of the hose. In case that the clamping force is small, the refrigerant gas in the hose can leak locally under the severe operating circumstances. The practical test of clamping force is performed by means of the measurement of separation force. In this study, the swaging process of a hose is simulated with the finite element method, to investigate the effect of friction coefficient on the clamping force. The contact condition is used in consideration of real manufacturing process, and the material properties for the Mooney-Rivlin model is obtained by the experimental results. The result interpretations are focused on the contact forces, which is displayed graphically with respect to friction coefficient, on the surfaces between the hose and the metal fittings.
