The high temperature thermal attacks in welding can affect the residual stress of a frame for automotive assembly accompanying frame deformation. Also the residual stress can induce the negative effect on durability performance of the automobile. In order to analyze the frame deformation, the simplified test frame which had the similar shape (form) of the real automotive frame was fabricated. The contactless optical 3D scanner was used for the shape difference measurement of the frame between before and after the welding. The FE-model of the test frame was composed and the deformation and residual stress simulation were performed. The simulated results were compared with the measured results for the reference of the frame design following as the variation of welding sequency. The deformation shape of the frame by simulation was in good agreement with that by the experimental measurement. In addition, the optimized welding sequency with reduced deformation after welding could be achieved through these analyses.

The frame for automotive assembly can be deformed and remained on the residual stress due to high temperature thermal attacks when in welding. The frame deformation can be made to problems when in assembly with body and the residual stress can affect the negative effect on durability performance of the automobile. In order to analyze the frame deformation, the simplified test frame which had the similar shape (form) of the real automotive frame was fabricated. The contactless optical 3D scanner was used for the shape difference measurement of the frame between before and after the welding. The FE-model of the test frame was composed and the heat transfer and thermal stress simulation were performed. The simulated results were compared with the measured results for the reference of the frame design. The deformation shape of the frame by simulation was in good agreement with that by the experimental measurement.

In present study, the deformation analysis and automotive body repair were analyzed with respect to collision types by case studies. As a result, lots of data for the automobile frame deformation caused by collision were collected and analyzed according to collision types. It was shown from the result that the frame deformation patterns were able to be roughly grouped by collision positions of vehicles. Repair plans of deformed frames could be carried on the measured data. It was shown that the deformed vehicle frames were sufficienty repaired to be normal in driving characteristics from the performance test of repaired vehicles.

자동차의 다양한 부품 중 자동차 시트는 인간과의 직접 접촉 부위로서 승차감을 평가 할 수 있는 가장 기본적인 항목이다. 따라서 자동차 시트는 승차감과 동시에 충분한 강성과 강도를 가져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 자동차 시트에서의 시트 쿠션 프레임과 백 프레임을 3D 모델링하였고, 쿠션 프레임의 비틀림 강도, 수직하중강도 시험, 백 프레임의 강도 시험 3가지 실험에 대해서 시뮬레이션으로 구조해석을 하였다. 해석결과, 쿠션 프레임 비틀림 강도 시험에서는 초기 전변형량의 최대값은 5.8421mm가 나왔고, 영구 전변형량의 최대값은 0.02539mm가 나왔다. 쿠션 프레임 수직하중강도 시험에서는 쿠션 프레임 앞쪽 끝단의 전변형량은 2.1159mm이고, 뒤쪽 끝단은 0.0606mm이다. 하중을 더 증가한 경우는 전변형량의 최대값은 3.1739mm가 나왔다. 3 가지의 백 프레임 강도 시험에서는 최대의 전변형량은 0.18634mm로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 자동차 시트 쿠션 프레임 및 백프레임의 과도한 변형 및 파괴가 없음으로서 승객의 안전을 보장하는 충분한 강성과 강도를 검증할 수 있었다.

The hydroforming process is rapidly gaining popularity in the sheet metal forming industry. In this study, hydroforming process is applied to the seat back frame. The load-deformation characteristics of seat frame are simulated according to the test requirements by FMVSS. Structural analyses were performed with an analysis package program named I-DEAS for the conventional and the hydroforming seat back frame. The seat back frame made by hydroforming is not only about 23 percent lightweight, but also about 20 percent high strength compared with conventional that.

In this study, the safest model can be selected by the simulation result of structural safety analysis according to the shape of impact bar affected at side door of automobile. The open sectional model of semicircle type has the lowest deformation and stress among 4 kinds of models. As the weight of this model has 30% in comparison with other models, it becomes most economical and stable. As the open sectional model of cap type the highest deformation and stress among 4 kinds of models, it becomes weakest. The closed models with circular and rectangular types has the stress far lower than cap type. The maximum deformation is shown at the center part of impact bar but the maximum stress occurs at the joint part between impact bar and frame.
