최근 자동차 산업을 둘러싼 사회적, 환경적 요인은 차체 경량화를 강력희 요구하고 있다. 이를 위해서는 차체에 알루미늄 판재를 사용하는 것이 가장 효과적인 방법으로 제시되고 있다. 그러나 차체 설계 조건 및 제조기술은 오랫도안 강판을 사용하는데 적합 하도록 개발되어 왔다. 따라서 현재 사용되고 있는 강판의 대체 재로서 알루미늄 합금 판재를 사용하기 위해서는 강판과 동일한 강도를 가지면서 성형성이 요구되고 현재의 자동차 제조공정 즉 프레스 성형, 조립방법, 표면처리 기술 등에 적합한 특수 목적의 알루미늄 합금 판재의 개발이 요청되고 있다. 오늘날 알루미늄 판재 개발에 있어 적절한 합금 조성의 선택, 제조공정 뿐만 아니라 표면조성 및 형태의 조절 등에 의해 이러한 문제의 해결이 가능해지고 있고 알루미늄 압연 업체의 특수한 설계와 제조개념의 새로운 알루미늄 합금 개발을 위한 적극적인 노력이 집중되고 있어 머지않아 자동차 산업에 알루미늄 합금의 사용이 크게 늘어날 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 본 고에서는 자동차 차체용 알루미늄 합금의 개발 동향 및 차체적용을 위한 특성 및 응용기술에 대해 고찰한다.

Carbody of rolling stock has been gradually changed as whole wood, steel frame with wood car body, whole steel car body with rivet and whole monocoque carbody with welding. And also mild steel has been used widely to material of structure, but usage of stainless and aluminium which have lightweight and high corrosion resistance is being increased lately. Structure is being commercialized to AED(All Extrusion Design),whole double skin with hollow excluded shape such as aluminium structure from SSD(Sheet Stringer Design), single skin consists of traditional frame and outside plat. Traditional aluminium carbody had many problems from reduced strength in welding combination section because car body is consist of small extruded material affected heat by welding. On this study, we proposed the plan to improve the body strength and quality with large-scale aluminium extruded material by minimizing welding concentration in combination section.

환경 규제 및 배출가스 규제에 의하여 차량 경량화를 위해 점차적으로 Al합금의 차체 및 부품적용 비율이 점차 확대되고 있다. 이에 따라 알루미늄의 레이저 용접 시 출력, 초점거리, 용접 속도 등 공정 변수의 상관관계와 용접 결함 현상에 의한 관심이 집중된 연구가 많이 발표되었으며, 알루미늄 5000계열의 경우 박판 용접 시 기공, 균열 등 과 같은 결함 현상을 방지하기 위하여, Twin spot laser, Laser-TIG hybrid 등과 같은 공법 적용을 제안되었다. 본 연구에서는 Yb:YAG laser welding 시 Mg 함량이 높은 AA5J32을 소재를 이용하여 박판 겹치기 용접 시 Back side spiking 결함 방지를 위한 레이저 빔 출력 파형을 설계하여 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 파형의 특성에 따라 나타나는 겹치기 용접부의 기계적 특성과 기공에 대해 알아 보고자 하였다.

Generally, finite element models used in structural analysis have some uncertainties of the geometric dimensions, applied loads and boundary conditions, as well as in material properties due to the manufacturability of aluminum intensive body. Therefore, it is very important to refine or update a finite element model by correlating it with dynamic and static tests. The structural optimization problems of automotive body are considered for mechanical structures with initial stiffness due to preloading and in operation condition or manufacturing. As the mean compliance and deflection under preloading are chosen as the objective function and constraints, their sensitivities must be derived. The optimization problem is iteratively solved by a sequential convex approximation method in the commercial software. The design variables are corrected by the strain energy scale factor in the element levels. This paper presents an updated method based on the sensitivities of structural responses and the residual error vectors between experimental and simulation models.

There are a lot of curved subway stations in Seoul metropolitan area. These must be straightly constructed as many as possible. But some of stations are roundly designed and built in order to avoid pre-existed underground obstacle such as basement of high rise building, underground gas or water pipe line and subway stations from another line. As shown fig 1, one of the biggest problem occurring curved subway station is considered large gap between platform and vehicle when vehicle completely stop at the station. The gap potentially is in existence to subway passenger as very dangerous factors in rush hours. If passenger accidentally drop their food or leg between this gap when they get on the train and train leaves station, the passenger will be seriously injured by vehicle. In this paper, various design and instruments are introduced and best solution for this matter will be presented. In order to eliminate any possibility of accident happened gap between platform and vehicle, KRRI(Korea Railroad Research Institute) have been developed new safety instrument. These technologies were applied for patent by KRRI. These mechanisms will provide confidence as well as safety to Korean subway passenger
