This paper summarizes the results of a numerical study conducted to analyze the determination of optimum blank diameter on material flow and thread profile for Spindle Screw in external thread rolling. Initial blank diameter affect a quality of Spindle Screw in thread rolling process. Therefore, it is very important to determine the optimum blank diameter in thread rolling process. In order to determine the optimum blank diameter, this paper suggest the calculating method of initial blank diameter considering real shape of tooth. The finite element code DEFORM is applied to analyze the metal flow of tooth. then the analytical results are verified by experiment of thread rolling for Spindle Screw.

Effect of processing condition on the hot extrusion of Al-Zn-Mg-Sc alloy was investigated. For this purpose, hot compression test and FE-simulation were conducted via Thermecmaster-Z and DEFORM-3D, respectively. The microstructure evolution during hot extrusion and post heat-treatment was investigated and deformation mechanisms were analyzed by constructing processing map. FE-simulation results show that the temperature difference between container and billet has considerable influence on the final shape of extruded T-shape bar. The relation between applied load and processing time was predicted by the FE-analysis as well as punch speed vs. stroke chart.

In this study, the effect of heat treatment conditions and deformation temperature on the formability were investigated in warm hydroforming of Al 6061 tube. Full annealing and T6-treatment for heattreatment of Al6061 tube were used in this study. To evaluate the hydroformability, uniaxial tensile test and bulge test were performed between room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$. And measured flow stress was used to simulate the hydroforming of Al 6061. A commercial FEM code, DEFORM2D, was used to calculate the damage and strain variation. The calculated values were efficient to predict the forming limit in hydroforming for real complex shaped part.

In the forging operation of large ingot two break-down process are upsetting and cogging. The first purpose of upsetting is to ensure sufficient forging ratio for subsequent cogging operations and consolidate the voids along the centerline. The second purpose is related to improve the physical properties for a final product. Voids which are generated during the casting process can be one of the decisive defects of materials. So it is necessary to know the standard of Judgment for void-closure in upsetting operation. In practical conditions, FEM analysis(DEFORM 2D 8.1) was carried out to decide how much effective strain has influence on void-closure. It is finally suggested that the function consists of the effective strain of analysis data and the area rate of void.

In the ideal forming theory(1), which has been deviously developed as a direct method for optimizing forming process, material elements are required to deform following the minimum plastic work path (or the proportional true strain path). Besides the general theory(2,3), specific ideal forming theories have been developed for membrane sheet forming(4) as well as two-dimensional steady bulk forming(5-7). In this work, the ideal forming theory was successfully applied for non-steady bulk forming under the plane strain condition. Here, the shape change complying with the minimum plastic work path, was effectively described by developing a numerical code based on the characteristic method. Numerical results obtained for a specific industrial part also include the optimum pre-forming shape and its evolving shape change to the final shape as well as the boundary traction history.

The dimensional accuracy of the cold forged products is strongly dependent on the elastic behavior of the die. The elastic deformation of the die is continuously changed during the process. Therefore, it is needed to measure the deformation of die. Strain gauges are used to measure the elastic strains in the die during cold backward extrusion process. The strain gauges are attached on the die surface and embedded at the interface between the die insert and the stress ring. In order to compare the results with the FE-analysis, the rigid-plastic FE-analysis of cold backward extrusion process using DEFORM-3D has been performed, and the analysis of elastic deformation of the die has been done by using ANSYS with non-linear contact.

The objective of this study was presented with a prediction on the alignment of cementite in pearlite lamella structure of high carbon steel by means of finite-element method(FEM) simulation. Pearlite strcuture was characterized by its nano-sized microstructure feature of alternation ferrite and cementite. FEM simulations were performed based on a suitable FE model describing the boundary conditions and the material behavior. With the alignment of lamella structure in high carbon pearlite steel wire, material plastic behavior was taken into account on plastic deformation and alignment of cementite. The effects of many important parameters(reduction in area, semi-die angle, initial angle of cementite ) on wire drawing process were predicted by DEFORM-2D. As the results, the possibility of wire fracture could be considerably reduced and the productivity of final product could be more increased than before.

Silk fabrics are very popular and widely used because of their elegant appearance. However, silk fabrics generally have easy wrinkle, and do not stretch and deform permanently after machine washing. Then the stretched properties of silk fabrics are important for the application of industrial textile materials such as formal and sports wear. Thus, this research surveys the covering, weaving and degumming conditions for stretched silk fabrics. As a result, yarn breaking stress was reduced with increasing spindle speed, and the yarn twists were optimized under the covering condition of polyurethane/silk with PVA pretreatment. In addition, the shrinkage of the silk fabrics treated with star degumming process was reduced by continuous NaOH degumming process. The fabrics showed the fabric physical properties with optimum stretched properties and evenness surfaces.
