Thermally-induced deformation in SMC(Sheet Molding Compound) products is analyzed using three dimensional finite element method. Planar fiber orientation, which causes the anisotropic material properties, is calculated through the flow analysis during the compression stage of the mold. Also curing process is analyzed to predict temperature profile which has significant effects on warpage of SMC products. Through the developed procedure, effects of various process conditions such as charge location, mold temperature, fiber contents, and fiber orientations on deformation of final products are studied. and processing strategies are proposed to reduce the warpage and the shrinkage.

The cold-formed steel stud, which has been used as a load-bearing member of wall panels for steel houses, poses a significant problem in insulation due to heat bridging of the web. Therefore, some additional thermal insulating materials are required. In order to solve this problem, the cold-formed steel thermal stud with slits in the web was developed. However, estimating the structural strength of thermal studs is very difficult because of the arrangement of perforations. In this paper, an analytical and experimental research on thermal studs is described. Three types of studs with different length, pitch and arrangement of slits were tested to failure. A simple design approach was proposed based on the test results. The proposed method adopted the direct strength method, based on the elastic local and distortional buckling stress of plain studs with equivalent thickness in the web instead of thermal studs. The predictions using the proposed method were compared with test results for verification and the adequacy of the proposed method was confirmed.

Recently, CFRP composites are widely used as lightweight materials have with excellent mechanical properties and can beare widely used in various fields. In general, thermosetting resins are used for CFRP. However, in recent years, studies have been carried out using thermoplastic resins have been actively carried out to overcome the disadvantages of thermosetting resins. The LFT-D system is a molding method in which a fiber is directly cut to a the desired length while being impregnated with a thermoplastic resin to produce a compound and that is then press-molding molded to form the product. In this paper, before the production of the trailing arm, the compression molding analysis was carried out in order to grasp the problems that may occur during production. Through cCompression molding analysis was applied to calculate of the minimum press pressure and to compare and analysis analyze the molding conditions characteristic required to formfor forming the trailing arm.

In general, materials that can be used to form elastic pads, such as urethane and rubber, are often used in flexible forming processes by inserting the pads between a blank and flexible die for smoothing the forming surface that is formed by a reconfigurable die. In this study, the effects of the elastic pad on formability in the flexible forming process for sheet metals are investigated by performing numerical simulations. In the simulation, the hyperelastic material model is used, where the urethane elastic pads serve as elastic cushions. Case studies are carried out for elastic materials with different hardness values and thicknesses. The results are used to evaluate formability by comparing the configuration of the deformed blank and its major cross-sectional profiles. It is verified that the elastic pad used in the flexible forming process for sheet materials should be hard and that its thickness should be chosen appropriately.

평판형의 열가소성 수지를 유리전이온도 이상으로 가열한 다음 압력을 가함으로써 원하는 형상의 제품을 성형하는 열성형공정은 대상 수지가 큰 변형을 일으킬 뿐만 아니라 비선형적 거동을 보이게 된다. 따라서 수지의 변형거동 예측과 최적성형조건의 설정에 많은 어려움과 시행착오를 거치게 되는 바, 열성형 공정의 최적화를 위한 연구의 일환으로 원형 평판위 수지를 대상으로 수지의 부풀림 거동과 이에 따른 두께 분포를 예측할수 있는유한요 소법의 수치모사 알고리듬을 개발하고자 하였다. Piola-Kirchhoff 응력 텐서와 Green 변형 텐서 및 lagrangian 변형 텐서를 사용하여 평판상의 응력-변형에 대한 비선형의 에너지 수 지식을 수립하고 Newton-Raphson 반복수렴법을 이용하여 근사적으로 해석하였으며 수지의 유변학적 구성방정식으로는 neo-Hookean 모델, Mooney-Rivlin 모델 및 Ogden 모델등의 초탄성 모델을 사용하여 그결과를 비교하였다. 수치모사에는 두께가 매우 얇기 때문에 두께 방향의 응력변화를 무시할수 있는 membrane 가정을 도입한 2차원적 해석과 두께 방향의 응력 변화를 고려하는 3차원적 해석을 모두 수행하고 그 차이를 비교하였으며 3차원적 해석 의 경우에는 penalty법을 이용하여 비 압축성을 만족하였다. 일차적으로 내압을 받는 두꺼 운 원통계에 대한 수치모사 해석을 수행하고 완전해와 비교함으로써 개발된 수치모사 알고 리듬의 열성형 공정에의 적용 타당성을 검증하였으며 이를 이용하여 원형 평판의 자유부풀 림거동을 예측한 결과 Treloar 등의 실험결과와 잘 부합함을 확인하였다. 또 간단한 형상의 금형이 있는 경우와 반지름 방향으로의 온도변화에 따른 수지의 변형거동을 해석함으로써 실제 열성형 공정에서 요구되고 있는 성형품의 두께 분포를 균일하게 하기 위한 방안을 제 시하였다.

A finite element analysis for near-net-shape forming of Al6061 powder was performed under warm pressing. The advantages of warm compaction by rubber isostatic pressing were discussed to obtain parts with better density distributions. To simulate densification and deformed shape of a powder compact during warm pressing, the elastoplastic constitutive equation based on yield function of Shima-Oyane was implemented into a finite element program(ABAQUS). The hyperelastic constitutive equation based on the Ogden strain energy potential was employed to analyze nonlinear elastic response of rubber. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for Al6061 powder compacts under warm pressing.

This study performs a yield line analysis of welded T-joints in cold-formed Square Hollow Sections (SHS) with the branch in axial compression. The existing yield line models proposed by Koto, Packer, Zhao, and CIDECT and the proposed yield line model of the previous study are compared, using the existing test results of welded T-joints in cold-formed SHS. The yield line model suggested in the previous paper, which is based on the simplified yield line analysis, is reviewed to evaluate its application limit on cold-formed SHS T-joints. In the proposed model, the round corner of the cold-formed SHS section and weld size are taken into account. Finally, the validity range of yield line analysis is determined by observing the actual failure modes and comparing the test value with the analysis value, set as ${\beta}^{\prime}{\leq}0.8$ where ${\beta}^{\prime}=0.8$, ${\beta}^{\prime}=b_1^{\prime}/b_0^{\prime}$, $b_1{^{\prime}}=b_1+t_0$ and $b_0{^{\prime}}=b_0-t_0$.

During a compression molding process of Unidirectional Fiber Reinforced Plastic Composites, control of filling patterns in mold and distribution of fiber is needed to predict the effects of molding parameters on the flow characteristics. To obtain an excellent product and decide optimum molding conditions, it is important to know the relationship between molding conditions and viscosity. In this study, the anisotropic viscosity of the Unidirectional Fiber Reinforced Plastic Composites is measured by using the parallel plastometer. The model for flow state has been simulated by using the viscosity. The composites is treated as an incompressible New-tonian fluid. The effects of longitudinal/transverse viscosity ration A and slip parameter $\alpha$ on buldging phenomenon and mold filling patterns, are also discussed.
