Trimming line design plays an important role in obtaining accurate edge profile after flanging. Compared to the traditional section-based method, simulation-based method can produce more accurate trimming line by considering deformation mechanics. Recently, the use of a finite element inverse method is proposed to obtain optimal trimming line. By analyzing flanging inversely from the final mesh after flanging, trimming line can be obtained from initial mesh on the drawing die surface. Initial guess generation fer finite element inverse method is obtained by developing the final mesh onto drawing tool mesh. Incremental development method is adopted to handle irregular mesh with various size and undercut. In this study, improved incremental development algorithm to handle complex shape is suggested. When developing the final mesh layer by layer, the algorithm which can define the development sequence and the position of developing nodes is thoroughly described. Flanging of front fender is analyzed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present method. By using section-based trimming line and simulation-based trimming line, incremental finite element simulations are carried out. In comparison with experiment, it is clearly shown that the present method yields more accurate edge profile than section-based method.

The major purpose of the present study is to evaluate the performance of various galvanized (GI) or galvannealed (GA) mild steels and AHSS in stamping applications. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of selected stamping operations was conducted to estimate the critical pressure boundary conditions that exist in practice. Using this information, laboratory tribotests, e.g. Twist Compression (TCT), Deep Drawing (DDT) and Strip Drawing (SDT) Tests, were developed to evaluate the performance of selected lubricants and die materials/coatings in forming galvanized steels of interest. The sheet materials investigated included mild steels and AHSS (e.g. DP600 GI/GA, DP780 GI/GA, TRIP780 GA and DP980 GI/GA). Experimental results showed that galvanized material resulted in more galling, while galvannealed material showed more powdering and flaking. The surface roughness and chemical composition of galvanized sheet materials affected the severity of galling under the same testing conditions, i.e. lubricants and die materials/coatings. The results of this study helped to determine the critical interface pressure that initiates lubricant failure and galling in stamping selected galvanized sheet materials. Thus, to prevent or postpone the critical interface conditions, the results of this study can be used to select the optimum combination of galvanized sheet, die material, die coating and lubricant for forming structural automotive components.

An algorithm and its computer program were developed for the computer aided automatic conversion from 2-D design drawing, which includes arbitrary curves, to a 3-D object, and the 3-D object obtained from the developed program was used to generate the tool path of NC milling machine. The algorithm and its computer program developed were applied to several real objects for their feasibility check and showed satisfactory results. Therefore, it was proved that the algorithm and its program developed can be applied to the CAM for the mechanical parts having arbitraily curved shapes by automatically generating its 3-D object. As a result of this study a basic theory for the integration of CAD/CAM was established which will prompt the improved quality and productivity.

In cold forming processes, due to high working pressure action on the die surface, failure mechanics must be considered before die design. One of the main reasons of die failure in industrial application of metal forming technologies is wear. Die wear affects the tolerances of formed parts, metal flow and costs of process etc. The only way to control these failures into devlop methods which allow prediction of die wear and which are suited to be used in the design state in order to optimize the process. In this paper, the forming propcesses that involve cold forward extrusion and wire drawing were simulated by rigid plastic finite element method and its output were used for predicting die wear by Archard wear model. The simulation results were compared with the measured worn dies.

This paper presents a method for rapid wire frame drawing of the 3D objects represented by the CSG scheme. When the two CSG trees are combined into one, the intersection parts of the polygons constituting the object corresponds to each subtree are computed, and the boundary representation of the combined object is obtained according to the given combinational operator and stored in the root node. The boundary representation in the root node is used in the wireframe drawing of the object and later computation of boundary representation. Bezier surface is taken as one of the primitive object the scan-line algorithm is used, which subdivides each scan-line into the spans where no polygon is intersected, and renders each span with the CSG representation of the object.

This study presents a study on the influence of process parameters(semi-die angle, die reduction, friction condition, and bearing length) in drawn wire on residual stresses were investigated using FE-analysis. In this study, semi-die angle and die reduction have a significant effect on the residual stresses at the surface of drawn wire. In the previous study, in order to reduce the residual stresses, several methods were suggested: addition of axial tension, application of skin pass, straightening in multi-roll straightener etc. In this study, it can be known that the concurrent application of skin pass with low die reduction and low semi-die angle at the final stage of drawing operation reduces dramatically the both axial and hoop residual stresses after drawing.

The study aims to analyze the geometric characteristics of the pointed arches proposed by Al-Kāshī in his book "Miftāḥ al-Ḥisāb" (Key of Arithmetic) and investigate their planning principles, architectural application, and typological characteristics. Al-Kāshī completed this significant work in 1427 and dedicated it to Ulugh Beg, a Timurid Sultan in Samarkand. In the ninth chapter, titled "Al-'Imārāt wa al-Abnīya" (Amīr's Mansion and Building), Al-Kāshī sought to measure the surface areas and volumes of barrel vaults (Azaj) and domes (Qubba). To achieve this, he proposed five kinds of pointed arches (Ṭāq) and analyzed their drawing methods and composition principles. The Īwān and Qubba structures, which are curved architectural elements, hold significant importance in Islamic architecture. However, previous research has predominantly focused on comparing the drawings in Al-Kāshī's book with historical buildings, neglecting the inherent characteristics of the drawings themselves. This study intends to contribute to a deeper understanding of Al-Kāshī's remarkable work and shed light on the geometric aspects of monumental structures in the Timurid Period.

Non-passivated electrolytic tinplates withour conventinal chemical treatment self-oxidize in ambient atmosphere to from yellow stain on the outermost surface during the long-term storage. The degree of yellowness of the stain increased linerly with the oxide thickness due to the interfeefence color of the $SnO_2$ Even though the thickness of the oxide layer was very thin, less than 100$\AA$ , it exerts an undesirable influence on the can-making processes, particularly the stripping behavior after ironing. Investigations were carried out on the morphologies of the coating layer, the changes in oxide thickness during successive can-making processes and the averge friction coefficients with the different oxide thinkness. These oxide layers were broken up and distributed within the bulk tin coating during the ironing process. This redistribution of the oxide layer prvented smooth pressing-aside of the tin coating layer, resulting in an increase in the ironing friction coefficient. As the friction was increased, the residual stress along the can wall thinkness(i.e., the hoop stress) was also increased. Due to both the oxibe layer accumulation, which increased the friction coefficient, and the hoop stress, can stripping efficiency without roll-back is reduced.

In this paper, the low frequency vibration forming system is developed for micro-patterns formation on the metal substrate. many researchers have studied about micro-forming technologies such as micro deep drawing, press forming, forging, extrusion etc. for the formation of precise micro-patterns on the surface of metal substrates, multi-step forming process must be used to improve qualifies of the deformed patterns. Since the low frequency vibration forming system could easily deform the surface of metal substrates, several steps of multi-step forming process should be removed by using the low frequency vibration forming system. In order to find optimal process conditions, we have carried out low frequency vibration forming process with varying the vibration frequency from 110Hz to 500Hz.
