Micro molding technology is a promising mass production technology for polymer based microstructures. Mass production technologies such as the micro injection/compression molding, hot embossing, and micro reaction molding are already in use. In the present study, we have developed a numerical analysis system to simulate three-dimensional non-isothermal cavity filling for hot embossing, with a special emphasis on the free surface capturing. Precise free surface capturing has been successfully accomplished with the level set method, which is solved by means of the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) method. The RKDG method turns out to be excellent from the viewpoint of both numerical stability and accuracy of volume conservation. The Stokes equations are solved by the stabilized finite element method using the equal order tri-linear interpolation function. To prevent possible numerical oscillation in temperature Held we employ the streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) method. With the developed code we investigated the detailed change of free surface shape in time during the mold filling. In the filling simulation of a simple rectangular cavity with repeating protruded parts, we find out that filling patterns are significantly influenced by the geometric characteristics such as the thickness of base plate and the aspect ratio and pitch of repeating microstructures. The numerical analysis system enables us to understand the basic flow and material deformation taking place during the cavity filling stage in microstructure fabrications.

본 논문은 멀티스케일 공정-구조 해석의 방법론을 제안하고 단섬유층과 직물층으로 이루어진 배터리 하우징 파트에 적용한다. 특별히 마이크로스케일 대표체적요소(RVE: Representative Volume Element)안 기지의 불확정성을 고려하였다. 마이크로스케일의 RVE내 기지 물성의 랜덤한 공간내 분포는 KLE(Karhunen-Loeve Expansion)을 통해 구현하였다. 공간상 랜덤분포된 기지 물성을 갖는 RVE의 유효 물성을 전산균질화를 통해 얻어 매크로스케일 유한요소 모델에 매핑하였다. 또한 하이브리드 공정해석을 통해 압축 성형 해석으로부터 얻은 잔류응력과 섬유배향을 매핑한 유한요소 모델과 드레이핑 공정 해석결과로부터 얻어진 섬유배향을 매핑한 모델을 결합하였다. 본 연구에 제안된 방법은 배터리 하우징 뿐만 아니라 다양한 재료 구성을 갖는 복합재료의 공정-구조해석을 통해 설계요구도를 엄밀하게 평가할 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

Recently, remarkable progress has been made in both technology and production of optical elements including aspheric lens. Especially, requirements for machining glass materials have been increasing in terms of limitation on using environment, flexibility of material selection and surface accuracy. In the past, precision optical glass lenses were produced through multiple processes such as grinding and polishing, but mass production of aspheric lenses requiring high accuracy and having complex profile was rather difficult. In such a background, the high-precision optical GMP process was developed with an eye to mass production of precision optical glass parts by molding press. This GMP process can produce with precision and good repeatability special form lenses such as camera, video camera, aspheric lens for laser pickup, $f-\theta$ lens for laser printer and prism, and me glass parts including diffraction grating and V-grooved base. GMP process consist a succession of heating, forming, and cooling stage. In this study, as a fundamental study to develop molds for GMP used in fabrication of glass lens, we conducted a glass lens forming simulation. In prior to, to determine flow characteristics and coefficient of friction, a compression test and a compression farming simulation for PBK40, which is a material of glass lens, were conducted. Finally, using flow stress functions and coefficient of friction, a glass lens forming simulation was conducted.

In injection molding of an optical disk, a toric lens, etc., their performance depends on the transcription preciseness of fine surface structure of a mold. However, transcription behavior has not been made clear yet, because transcription is made in very short time and the structure is very small. In this paper, transcription properties have been examined, by using V-grooves of various sizes. machined on mold surfaces, and the following results are obtained. (1) Transcription properties have been made clear experimentally and it was found that the mold temperature $T_D$ makes great influence on the transcription property and that compression applying time $t_c$ should be taken more than 2.0s for fine transcription. (2) A mechanical model of transcription process, in consideration with strain recovery due to viscoelastic property of polymer. is proposed. (3) Simulation results agree with experimental ones fairly well. It means that the transcription model is useful for estimation of transcription property in advance of an actual. injection molding.

To enhance the CAE accuracy, the definition of material behavior is one of key influence on the result. In case of plastic material with fiber reinforcement, the anisotropic material behavior should be taken into account to increase of CAE accuracy. BASF has developed an innovative CAE tool, ULTRASIM$^R$, which is capable of generating material models of thermoplastic materials for structural simulation. ULTRASIM$^R$, not only the glass fiber orientation effect, but also the weld line effect, tensile-compression anisotropy, strain rate effect are combined in a non-linear material law, which will be evaluated in a unique failure criterion, thus resulting in an highly accurate CAE approach.

An occupant analysis code SAFE (Safety Analysis For occupant crash Environment) is utilized to simulate and improve the crash performance of an energy absorbing steering system. The safety standard FMVSS 203 is simulated and used for design evaluations . Segments and contact elliposids are utilized to model the bod blocks and the components of the steering system with SAFE. Spring-damper elements and force-deflection characteristics are utilized to model the energy absorbing components such as the plate and the polyacetal molding. The plate absorbs the impact energy through tensile deformation . Whereas, the polyacetal molding absorbs the impact energy through compression. the body block test is carried out to validate tie simulation model, and real component tests are performed to extract the force-deflection curves . After the model is validated , the parameter study is carried out to evaluate the crash performance of the energy absorbing components. A performance measure is defined for the parameter study. Using the results of the parameter study and managing the orthogonal arrays, optimum design values of energy absorbing components are determined to minize the occupant injury.

Generally, progressive type GMP process is more efficient than batch type because there are advantages that problems of each stage(heating, press, cooling etc.) are easily grasped and a time of production is shortened. But if single cavity is used in progressive type GMP process, there is disadvantage that productivity is decreased. So, in order to improve productivity of progressive type GMP process, it is essential to secure multi cavity mold technic. In this study, as a fundamental study to develop multi cavity used in glass lens molding, we conducted a compression test for PBK40.

단섬유 강화 고분자의 사출성형시 고분자 수지의 유동에 의하여 섬유배향이 필연적으로 일어나며, 섬유배향에 의한 이방성 (anisotropy)은 최종성형물의 품질과 기계적인 특성 등에 많은 영향을 미친다. 사출공정 중에서 충전과정(filling stage)은 섬유배향에 지배적인 역할을 하므로, 충전과정의 유동장을 정확하게 해석하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 형상이 복잡한 캐비티(cavity)와 다중 캐비티에서는 먼저 충전이 완료되어 현탁액(suspension)이 압축을 받고 있는 영역들이 존재하게 된다. 기존의 방법처럼 사출성형의 충전과정을 비압축성 유동으로 가정하면 정확한 유동장을 계산할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 충전과정에서 압축성을 고려한 혼합 유한요소법/유한차분법을 이용하여 유동장을 계산하였다. 충전이 완료되는 순간에서, 이차배향텐서에 대한 배향변화방정식을 4차 Runge-Kutta 방법을 이용하여 해석함으로써 3차원 섬유배향장을 예측하였다. 충전시간이 다른 4개의 캐비티를 갖는 금형을 제작하여 충전과정에서 압축성 효과를 고려한 수치해석 결과가 실험과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 또한, 압축성과 비압축성 유동장에서 이론적으로 계산된 섬유배향의 차이를 정성적 및 정량적으로 비교하였다.
