Composite motor cases fabricated by the filament winding method are structurally weak in the dome when they are required to withstand the internal pressure of the combustion gas. In this study, a finite element analysis is conducted to compare the burst pressure of a composite dome according to the variation of the pressure distribution ratio(PDR). The performance of the composite motor case was compared quantitatively by calculating the stress on the inner and outer dome surfaces and metal boss volume. As a result, the critical point of the failure mode was observed at a PDR between 2.5 and 3.0. A design at a PDR of 2.5­-3.5 can reduce the weight of metal boss without fluctuation in the burst pressure of the combustion motor case. Moreover as the design reference value changes according to the dome shape and opening size, further analysis and testing are necessary.

Effects of electrode tips shapes of spot welding on the galvannealed steel have been studied, and the results obtained from this studies are as follows. 1) Expulsion had no effect on the shear strength of the specimen but been observed on the tensile strength of the specimen. 2) Effect of holding time after welding was neglegible when the spot welding supplies enough heat input. 3) Depending on the sopt welding tip shape it has different weldbility. It has better weldability in the order of pointed shape, truncated shape and dome shape. But the effect of coolind was just the opposite of the above order.

Most of the domestic city buses are equipped with the pressure vessels subjected to internal pressure applied by compressed natural gas. Pressure vessels subjected to internal pressure are used in various forms and purposes. Fuel is explosive and has flammable high pressure. The damage of the pressure vessel causes many property damage and loss of life. Safe design for pressure vessel is always necessary. Due to these reasons, many studies using finite element analysis have been conducted. In this paper, the stresses of cylindrical vessel and spherical dome were analyzed using ANSYS, a finite element analysis software. In order to verify the validity of the analysis, a model with a perfectly spherical shape of the dome was designed and observed. Based on the ASME standard in used, stress distribution was also analyzed for models designed with compressed natural gas(CNG). The FEM analysis software agreed with the theory when the dome shape was perfectly spherical. The model designed based on the ASME specification theory, stress concentration occurred in the knuckle part.

Shell-typed structures can make resistance to external forces efficiently, and have merits to construct the large-span structures with thin thickness. This merits are highly depending on the shape of structure. Therefore designers want to the optimum shape, but it is not so easy to find the shape. So far there are many schemes to find more optimum shape, and those methods have their own characteristics. In this study, the authors introduce a relatively easy approach to find optimum shape by the finite element method considering geometric nonlinearity. We are finding the optimum shape of a shell-typed structure using line elements, and compared the results by various analytic models.

Upsetting is performed in open-die press forging to deform metal in all directions in order to enhance soundness of a product and reduce directionality of properties caused by casting. It is necessary to ensure sufficient forging ratio for subsequent cogging operations and consolidate the void along the centerline. To obtain these benefits, the upper die shape (dome and dished shape) is considered as an upsetting parameter. Thermo-viscoplastic finite element analysis has been carried out so as to understand the influence of upper die shape on the effective strain, hydrostatic stress and temperature in the upset-forged ingots without internal defects. The analysis is focused on the investigation into internal void closure in ingots with pipe holes and circular voids. The computational results have shown that the volume fraction of the void is independent of the circular void size and the closure of internal voids is much more influenced by the effective strain than the hydrostatic stress around the void. It is finally suggested that the height reduction must be over 35% for consolidation of internal voids.

A SEM study was performed on the surface of adult P. habayashii Park, 1940, recovered from the snake, Elaphe rufodorsata. The anterior part of the worms was cup-shape and equipped with oral, ventral suckers, pseudosuckers, and tribocytic organ, and the posterior one was finger-like and round-ended, The tegument of the anterior body was covered with 3~4 pointed small spines on the midventral surface and 1~2 pointed ones on the lateral surface. Sensory papillae such as type II, dome-shape ones, and papillae with an opening were distributed over the ventral surface of the anterior portion. The round tribocytic organ was bearing small stout spines laterally, whereas the surface Which comes in contact with the host tissues consisted of numerous long fibrillar fibers. The lip of the oral sucker contained type II papillae. Lateral margin of the anterior body revealed type III papillae.

The design of structural engineering optimization is to minimize the cost. This problem has many objective functions formulating section and shape as a function of the included discrete variables. simulated annealing, genetic algerian and TABU algorithm are searching methods for optimum values.

Auxetic material is a material which has negative Poisson's ratio(NPR). Auxetic material shows some distinctive property like high energy absorbing property and high shear modulus. Among these, synclastic curvature is very interesting characteristic. When synclastic-curvature-material bends, it changes its shape like dome, contrary to non-auxetic material which changes its shape like saddle(anticlastic). This distinctive property could make it easy to manufacture curved structure like nose cone or wing panel in aerospace engineering. In this study, we studied a quantitative analysis about synclastic curvature of re-entrant panel with finite element model. We suggested a concept 'Degree of Synclasticity(DOS)', which means a ratio of curvature of load-direction and load-orthogonal direction. We studied the variation of DOS with two factor, unit cell inner angle(${\theta}$) and load position angle(${\phi}$). DOS decreases as ${\theta}$ increases because the unit cell goes out of auxetic-shape. As ${\phi}$ varies, DOS changes in a large range. So proper optimization of ${\phi}$ would be needed for application.

We present the optimum design for the cross-sectional(sizing) and shape optimization of truss structures with natural frequency constraints. The optimum design method used in this paper employs continuous design variables and the Harmony Search Algorithm(HSA). HSA is a meta-heuristic search method for global optimization problems. In this paper, HSA uses the method of random number selection in an update process, along with penalty parameters, to construct the initial harmony memory in order to improve the fitness in the initial and update processes. In examples, 10-bar and 72-bar trusses are optimized for sizing, and 37-bar bridge type truss and 52-bar(like dome) for sizing and shape. Four typical truss optimization examples are employed to demonstrate the availability of HSA for finding the minimum weight optimum truss with multiple natural frequency constraints.

Latticed domes take form a curved surface by arranged members with certain patterns. For this reason, it is possible for the characteristics of vibration to complicate by change of various parameters of dome; grid-pattern, boundary condition and ratio of radius-height etc. Therefore, it is important to clarify the effect by these parameters before generalized dynamic response analysis. So this study deals with free vibration analysis of latticed domes and makes clear an effect of shape coefficient, that is, geometrical characteristics of latticed domes, on the vibration characteristics.
