Mg alloy sheet exhibits significant differences in tensile and compressive yield stress depending on the temperature, as well as variations in its hardening behavior. Such unusual behavior makes it difficult to simulate the forming process of Mg alloy sheets. Results of analysis tend to deviate significantly from the experimental data because commercial software do not completely implement the unusual hardening behavior, yield asymmetry and temperature dependent changes in the Mg alloy's material properties. In the previous study, an in-plane tension-compression cyclic tester was developed to predict the cyclic behavior of Mg alloy sheets at an elevated temperature of up to $250^{\circ}C$. A new constitutive equation was suggested to analyze the unusual behavior, and was implemented in the commercial software in the form of user subroutine. In this paper, a stamping process of Mg seat cushion panel for automotive parts was simulated using the experimental data and user subroutine. Based on the analysis, an optimal temperature condition was determined and a stamping die shape at each step was suggested in the non-isothermal stamping of Mg alloy sheets.

In this study, the progressive inelastic deformation, so called, thermal ratchet phenomenon which can occur in high temperature structures of liquid metal reactor was simulated with thermal ratchet structural test facility and 316L stainless steel test cylinder. The thermal ratchet deformation at the reactor baffle cylinder of the liquid metal reactor can occur due to the moving temperature distribution along the axial direction as the sodium free surface moves up and down under the cyclic heat-up and cool-down transients. The ratchet deformation was measured with the laser displacement sensor and LVDTs after cooling the structural specimen which is heated up to 55$0^{\circ}C$ with steep temperature gradients along the axial direction. The temperature distribution of the test cylinder along the axial direction was measured with 28 channels of thermocouples and was used for the ratchet analysis. The thermal ratchet deformation was analyzed with the constitutive equation of nonlinear combined hardening model which was implemented as ABAQUS user subroutine and the analysis results were compared with those of the test. Thermal ratchet load was applied 9 times and the residual displacement after 9 cycles of thermal load was measured to be 1.79mm. The ratcheting deformation shapes obtained by the analysis with the combined hardening model were in reasonable agreement with those of the structural tests.

본 연구에서는 지진가속도 계측기의 계측 데이터를 사용하여 저수지의 동적해석방법에 대한 모형 검정 및 저수지 높이에 따른 지진가속도 증폭 특성을 분석하였다. 모형을 검정하기 위해 댐 기초의 계측 데이터를 입력 데이터로 사용하였고 해석 결과를 댐 상부의 계측 데이터와 비교한 결과 수치해석을 이용해 출력된 지진파와 계측 지진파의 최댓값과 그 파형이 비슷하게 나타났고 지진가속도 증폭 특성의 경우 지진가속도 증폭비는 저수지의 높이와 지진의 크기에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 저수지에 설치된 가속도계에서 얻은 계측 데이터를 활용하여 반복 탄소성 구성식을 이용한 동적해석방법은 지진파 특성 분석이 적절하게 수행될 수 있는 기법임을 확인하였고 향후 이러한 기법을 적용해 저수지의 지진가속도 계측기의 활용도를 제고할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
