This paper describes the results of structural test and finite element analysis for rubber wheel-type Automatic Guideway Transit(AGT) made of aluminum honeycomb sandwich composites with WR580/NF4000 glass-fabric epoxy laminate face sheets. The static tests of vehicle structure were conducted according to JIS E7l05. These static tests have been done under vertical load, compressive load and 3-point support load. The structural integrity of AGT vehicle structure was evaluated by displacement, stress obtained from LVDT and strain gauges, and natural frequency. And finite element analysis using Ansys v11.0 was done to compare with the results of static test. The result showed that the results of structural integrity for static test were in an good agreement with these of finite element analysis.

This paper develops a finite element model for crashworthiness analysis ova small-sized bus. The full vehicle finite element model is composed of 31,982 shell elements,599 beam elements,42 bar elements, and 34,204 nodes. The model uses four material models (such as elastic, elastic-plastic(steel), rigid. and elastic-plastic (rubber) material model) of PAM-CRASH. The model uses four contact types to define sliding interfaces in ten areas. A frontal crash test using an actual vehicle with 30mph velocity to a rigid barrier is carried out. Vehicle pulses at lower part of left and right b-pillar are measured, and deformed shapes of frame and driver seat's lower left area are photographed. A frontal crash simulation using the developed full vehicle finite element model is performed with PAM-CRASH installed in super computer SP2. The simulation is performed with the same conditions as the test. The measured vehicle pulses and photographed deformed shapes from the test are compared to ones from the simulation to validate the reliability of the developed model.

본 연구에서는 제3의 성분으로 벤젠 술폰산계열 반응성 화합물과 ENB 및 DCPD를 사용하여 비diene계 고분자인 EVA를 특수 화학적 처리에 의하여 EVA의 주쇄에 불포화기 즉, 이중결합을 도입시켰다. 또한 이중결합도입 EVA와 diene계 범용합성고무인 CR, SBR과의 블렌드를 통하여 황가 황체를 제조하여 가황체들의 물리적 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 검토결과 원래의 EVA가 갖고 있는 green strength, 사출 압출 성형성, 접착성, 점착성, 치수안정성, 오존저항성 등의 장점은 그대로 살리면서도 황가황이 가능하여 열가소성의 EVA가 갖는 사용온도의 한계 문제와 기계적 특성 즉, 경도, 인장강도, 인장 응력, 신장율 등온 향상시켰다. 비diene계 고분자와 diene계 고분자의 블렌드에 있어서 개질에 대한 연구가 더 수행되어진다면 합성고무에서 나타나는 부족한 가공성, 내산화 안정성, 접착성 등을 크게 향상시킬 수 있을 것이며 아울러 EVA의 융해유동성을 이용한 고무제품 가공공정의 연속화가 가능하게 될 것이다.

주름구조를 가지는 박판구조물은 비행기, 자동차, 전자제품 등의 다양한 용도의 열교환기로 사용된다. 이러한 주름구조를 가지는 박판구조물의 경우 대량생산을 위하여 박판소성가공 공정으로 제작하게 되는데 꺾임 각을 가지는 주름구조를 형성하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 정확한 주름구조를 형성하기 위하여 일정한 압력을 박판의 전면에 효과적으로 미칠 수 있도록 새로운 고무성형공정을 제안한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 공정을 검증하기 위하여 우선 유한요소해석을 통해 고무성형공정 변수를 최적화하였다. 그리고 최적화한 고무성형공정을 이용하여 꺾임구조와 미세주름 구조를 가지는 박판을 제작함으로써 본 연구에서 제안한 공정이 목표로 하는 박판의 성형에 효과적인 공정임을 검증하였다.

Wheel bearings are important automotive parts that bear the vehicle weight and translate rotation motion; in addition, their seals are components that prevent grease leakage and foreign material from entering from the outside of the bearings. Recently, as the need for electric vehicles and eco-friendly vehicles has been emerging, the reduction in fuel consumption and $CO_2$ emissions are becoming the most important issues for automobile manufacturers. In the case of wheel bearings, seals are a key part of drag torque. In this study, we investigate the prediction of the drag torque taking into consideration the hyperelastic and viscoelastic material properties of automotive wheel bearing seals. Numerical analysis based on the finite element method is conducted for the deformation analyses of the seals. To improve the reliability of the rubber seal analysis, three types of rubber material properties are considered, and analysis is conducted using the hyperelastic material properties. Viscoelastic material property tests are also conducted. Deformation analysis considering the hyperelastic and viscoelastic material properties is performed, and the effects of the viscoelastic material properties are compared with the results obtained by the consideration of the hyperelastic material properties. As a result of these analyses, the drag torque is 0.29 Nm when the hyperelastic characteristics are taken into account, and the drag torque is 0.27 Nm when both the hyperelastic and viscoelastic characteristics are taken into account. Therefore, it is determined that the analysis considering both hyperelastic and viscoelastic characteristics must be performed because of its reliability in predicting the drag torque of the rubber seals.

The finite deformation with self contact problem of C. V. joint boots is analysed by using the implicit finite element code ABAQUS/Standard. It is shown that analysis results have a good agreement with experimental ones to the degree of maximum rotation angle. As an application of design modification, the effects of thickness change of the rounded part of boot model on the bending and the contact situation of deformed geometry are investigated. In this paper, the effect of the design modification in the end on the leakage is examined using 2-D finite element simulation. To solve the leakage problem of grease, the length of the small end is enlarged. From this study, it is confirmed that we can save the cost and time by applying FEM techniques to analyze and design the boot model.

This paper develops a finite element model for studying the crashworthiness analysis of a mid-size truck. A simulation for a truck frontal crash to a rigid barrier using the model is performed with PAM-CRASH installed in super computer SP2. Full vehicle model is composed of 86467 shell elements, 165 beam elements and 98 bar elements, and 86769 nodes. The model uses four material model such as elastic, elastic-plastic(steel), rigid and elastic-plastic(rubber) material model which are in PAM-CRASH. Frame and suspension system are modeled with 28774 shell elements and 31412 nodes. Cab is modeled with 34680 shell elements and 57 beam elements, and 36254 nodes. Bumper is modeled with 2262 shell elements, and 2508 nodes. Axle, steering shaft, etc are modeled using beam or bar elements. Mounting parts are modeled using rigid bodies. Bodies are interconnected using nodal constrains or joint options. To verify the developed model, frontal crash test with 30mph velocity to a rigid barrier is carried out. In the crash test, vehicle pulse at lower part of b-pillar is measured, and deformed shapes of frame and driver seat area are photographed. Those measured vehicle pulse and photographed pictures are compared those from the simulation to verify the developed finite element model.

Performances of urethane packing in the hydraulic breaker were analyzed using a finite element method. Because of high temperature and high pressure in the hydraulic breaker, it is better to use urethane rather than rubber as a packing material. We obtained the physical properties of urethane at elevated temperature by the tensile test. We analyzed buffer seal and U-packing maintaining the pressure and preventing oil leakage. Deformation, stress distribution, contact length, contact pressure of packing at each pressure step were obtained using finite element analysis. As the temperature increases, stress and contact force tend to decrease at low pressure. As the gap between piston and cylinder increases, contact length and contact forces decrease. Consequently, it is possible to design the packing section using these analyses, and construct a system to predict the possibility of oil leakage in the hydraulic breaker.
