This study is concerned with computerized multi-level substructuring methods and stress analysis of coil springs. The purpose of substructuring methods is to reduce computing time and capacity of computer memory by multiple level reduction of the degrees of freedom in large size problems that are modeled by three dimensional continuum finite elements. In this paper, the spring super element developed is investigated with tension, torsion, and bending of a cylindrical bar in order to verify its accuracy and efficiency for the multi-level substructuring method. And then the algorithm is applied to finite element analysis of coil springs. The result demonstrates the validity of the multi-level substructuring method and the efficiency in computing time and memory by providing good computational results in coil spring analysis.

This study aims to analyze durability by comparing displacement on vibration at driving bicycle frame models of 1, 2, 3 and 4. Among maximum equivalent stresses at 4 kinds of models, model 1 has highest value with 410.39 MPa and becomes 30 times than model 4 with lowest value. The natural frequency number at Model 4 increases more than the other models. Among four models, the number of frequency at model 1 becomes lowest at harmonic vibration with real loading condition. In cases of four kinds of models, the maximum stress is shown near the assembly of rear wheel and the maximum displacement is shown near saddle assembly at this harmonic condition. The structural result about this study can be effectively utilized on the design of bicycle frame by investigating durability and prevention against its damage.

The structural adhesives have the advantage of improving automobile performances and are being applied to joining light weight materials like aluminium and composite. In order to characterize the impact behavior of structural adhesive, instrumented impact tests were performed with respect to pin-ring adhesively bonded joint specimens. Also dynamic FE analysis was carried out using LS-DYNA to compare the results with experiments.

측면 충돌시 승객의 안전확보를 위한 미국 및 유럽의 법규 제정 과정과 배경을 살펴보고 이 두 법규를 비교하였다. 또한 이들 신 법규에 대응한 신차 개발을 위하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 같은 해석 기법을 이용시 개발 비용의 절감은 물론 개발기간도 단출할 수 있음을 보이고 미국 법규에 따른 해석 사례를 소개하였다. 정적 도어 구조 강성 해석의 경우 시험값과 평균적으로 10% 내의 오차를 보여주었다. 또한 동적 측면 충돌 해석 결과는 시험값과 비교하여 이동 대차 중심, 우측 B-필라하단 및 운전석 도어 중심에서의 Y-방향 속도의 경우 평균적으로 약 5% 차이를 보였으며 운전석 더미의 상해치는 골반 가속도의 경우 약 30%, 흉부 상해치의 경우 약 4%차이를 보여주었다. 이러한 해석 기술의 발달은 해석 결과와 시험결과 사이의 차이를 더욱 줄일 것으로 기대되며 이를 효과적으로 이용시 시작차의 제작비 및 시험비 절감 및 개발기간 단축을 가져와 자동차 설계분야의 국제경쟁력을 높이는 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

In the development of automated driving, interest in the interior parts of vehicle is to become more significant in terms of the occupant safety and comfort. This study proposed an optimal design of front seat according to the design requirements for frame stiffness and seat comfort. For the seat comfort, the appropriate foam thickness was obtained using the structural analysis under reclined occupant loadings. While the strength and stiffness analyses were performed to evaluate the seat frame structure. Topology optimization was carried out based on the simulation results and the derived optimal model and baseline seat design was updated. The conceptual seat design for the autonomous vehicle in this study showed that the model development process is appropriate for the design parameters in both frame stiffness and seat comfort.

Seat is the part relevant to comfortableness and safety among automotive parts directly. It also should have sufficient stiffness and strength to satisfy these conditions and ensure the safety of passenger. Automotive seat is modelled with 3D and is simulated with structural analyses about three kinds of experiments by before and after gap, side gap, before and after moment strength. As analysis result, deformation angles of $0.038^{\circ}$ and $0.04^{\circ}$ are respectively shown at before and after gap test, side gap test. Through before and after the moment strength test, maximum total deformations of 0.18946mm and 3.2482mm are respectively shown at front and rear loads. By the study result of no excessive deformation and no fracture at automotive seat frame, the sufficient rigidity and strength to guarantee the safety of passenger can be verified.

This paper is to study the durability through structural analysis on the front undercover of SUV car for offroad. It was investigated which model became structurally best by analyzing three kinds of models which are similar to the configuration of undercover for the protection of the part under car body which has been used really. The models of undercover were designed through CATIA program and analyzed by using ANSYS program as three kinds of models A, B and C. Through the analysis results, model B was expressed to have the best durability as model B has the least equivalent stress and the longest fatigue life among three models. As the design data with the durability of undercover obtained on the basis of this study result are utilized, the esthetic sense can be shown by being grafted onto the machine or structure at real life.

멀티 피직스 시스템은 구동을 수치적으로 해석하기 위하여 두 개 이상의 연성이 되어 있는 물리계를 고려해야하는 시스템을 일컫는다. 대표적인 예로 기계 분야에서 현재까지 많이 연구되어 왔던 열탄성(Thermal/Structure)과 유체/구조 연성(Fluid/Structure)시스템을 들 수 있다. 또한 현재 차세대 성장산업으로 많은 관심이 집중되고 있는 의료기기나 지능형 자동차와 로봇 등에서 사용되는 다양한 센서와 엑추에이터 등도 특별한 예로 들 수 있다. 특히, 한 개의 물리계 해석으로 시스템 해석이 가능한 기존의 일반적인 기계 시스템과는 달리 MEMS 등의 초소형 시스템은 시스템의 거동을 수치적으로 계산하기 위하여 여러 물리계의 연성을 고려해야 한다는 점에서 대표적인 다물리계 시스템의 예로 들 수 있다. 이렇게 우리생활에 밀접하게 쓰이고 있는 멀티 피직스 시스템은 단일 물리계 시스템과 비교하여 엔지니어의 경험에 의존하여 설계(Design)하기가 어려운 특성이 있다. 이에 이 연구 논문에서는 이런 멀티 피직스 시스템을 해석하고 최적화 하기위한 노력을 소개한다.
