When the product is removed from the mold after molding during the sheet metal molding process, elastic recovery causes a springback phenomenon. Much research has been done to minimize this phenomenon. In this study, V-bending experiments were conducted using galvanized steel sheets, stainless steel, and aluminum sheet materials, using a total of nine types of thin sheet materials of 1.0t, 1.5t, and 2.0t, respectively. Molding analysis and experimental data were compared and analyzed. In the case of galvanized steel sheets, it was considered that the springback phenomenon occurs more frequently in molding analysis than in experiments. It was considered that the springback phenomenon occurs greatly in the experiment, not the interpretation of the molding of the stainless steel plate and the aluminum plate. It was considered that the springback occurrence tendency of the molding analysis and the experiment was the same, and the springback occurrence error rate of the molding analysis and the experimental result was about 4.0%.

In this paper the stress and strain behaivor in near homogeneous isotropic matrix of metal like steel was studied roll forming of thin steel sheet for cylindrical pipe. Analytical results reveals a body which is on the area of square thickness along and perpendicular to the width of thin steel sheet is in the state of plane strain during roll forming. As a result construction of analytical method for calculating deformation load and stably deformed length along the width of strained steel sheet was established. Also loads applied during roll forming were analyzed using two typical thin steel sheet 12.3m thick steel sheet with 42.5kg /mm2 yield strength of pipe and 5.3mm thick steel sheet with 32.5kg/mm2 yield strength of pipe. Through this analysis applicability of the analytical method for deformation load during roll forming of cylindrical thin steel pipe was evaluated with a study of necessary production technology for roll forming and design technology for roll forming machine.

The analysis of the springback is done based on the stress of sheet after forming. Therfore, it is important to get the accurate stress from forming analysis. In this study, some parameters that influence on the accuracy of the springback estimation are investigated. Discretization of sheet and tools, choice of penalty constant and damping in contact treatment, and tool speed scaling are chosen as parameters. As a numerical example, the 2D draw bending benchmark problem of the NUMISHEET'93 is used. Also, the springback results of the s-rail benchmark problem of the NUMISHEET'96 are presented.

Steel sheet pile can be alternative material for bridge abutment for. The steel sheet pile bridge abutment is new and replacement bridge abutment due to its aesthetically attractive and cost effective. Use of embedded steel sheet piling brings savings in dead load, provides a compliant retaining wall, and permits speedier construction. In addition, for replacement bridge projects, traffic interruption can be minimized. It is hoped that this study will encourage designers and constructors to consider a steel substructure option more frequently during the conceptual and preliminary design phases of projects and thereby to take advantage of the potential to construction more efficiently. In this paper, an analysis of stress and strain for steel sheet pile bridge abutment was conducted. From the analysis results, the stress and strain characteristics of steel sheet pile bridge abutment with variations of steel sheet pile parameters is suggested.

The use ef sheet material for the hydroforming of a closed hollow body out of two sheet metal blanks is a new class of hydroforming process. By using a three-dimensional finite element program, called HydroFORM-3D, the hydroforming process of sheet metal pairs is analyzed. Also the comparison of conventional deep-drawing and hydroforming process was conducted. The simulation has concentrated on the influences of the various forming conditions, such as the unwelded or welded sheet metal pairs and friction condition, on the hydroforming process. This computational approach can prevent time-consuming trial-and-error in designing the expensive die sets and hydroforming process of sheet metal pairs.

In order to measure the friction coefficient used in sheet metal forming analysis, a friction tester was manufactured and friction tests were performed in various forming conditions. Based on the friction coefficients measured, a mathematical friction model was constructed in terms of lubricant viscosity, blank holding force, punch velocity and sheet roughness. In addition, the effect of the number of forming parameters in the calculation of friction coefficient on the accuracy of sheet metal forming analysis was investigated by comparing the punch loads obtained from the FEM simulation, in which the friction coefficients were determined by a few parameters with the experimental measurement.

In order to see the effect of die deformation on the forming analysis of sheet metals, the draw-ins, strains, and spring-backs of an automotive fender panels are numerically simulated by considering the die deformation found by the simultaneous structural analysis of press and dies. By coupling the forming analysis and the structural analysis, the die deformation is simultaneously taken into account in the forming process. Furthermore, for the consideration of load difference transferred among the upper die, punch, and blank holder due to the changes in sheet thickness, the gap elements are employed instead of the blank sheet in the structural analysis. The numerical simulation results of an automotive finder draw panel are compared with the measurements. The comparison of the forming and spring-back analysis results between the rigid die and the deformed die shows that the consideration of tool deformation can predict more accurately the forming and spring-back of sheet metals.

Design programs of tube-sheet for heat exchanger based on the related engineering society codes have been widely used. But it is not easy fer beginners to use the design programs. So we need to develop an easy program for design of tube-sheet for heat exchanger. This paper describes a developed design-program of tube-sheet fur heat exchanger. The developed program was coded on boiler theory and pressure vessel codes, provided by TEMA(Tubular Exchanger Manufactures Association) and ASME(American Society of Mechanical Engineers). Visual Basic, which is convenient for beginners to deal with, was used in the programming. Also a finite element analysis of tube-sheet for heat exchanger was carried to verify this developed program by using a commercial software, ANSYS. In the finite element analysis, tube and tube-sheet of heat exchanger were substituted by solid plate having equivalent properties for convenience of calculation. The thickness of tube-sheet obtained by the developed design-program was in good agreement with that of tube-sheet by FEA.

Generally, the forming process of sheet metal is very complex and difficult process because of many variables such as tool geometry, material properties and lubrication. In this view point, the numerical analysis of sheet metal forming process is very difficult. High speed computer is used to model complex sheet metal forming process on a reasonable time scale. The design and development of sheet metal parts in the automotive industry and the need for improved sheet forming process and reduced part development cost have led to the use of computer simulation in tool/die design of sheet metal pressing. HMC(Hyundai Mator Company) has invested to develop programs for analysis of sheet metal forming process with connection of Universities. As a result, several programs were developed. Recently, the commercial software, PAM-STAMP of ESI was installed and is being tried to application of it to the real automotive panels. This article reviews the ongoing activities on development and application of analytical modeling of sheet metal forming at HMC.
