The deformation of sheet metal due to the residual stress during blanking or piercing process, is numerically simulated by means of a commercial finite element code. Two dimensional plain strain problem is solved and then its result is applied to the deformation analysis of the lead frame. The plain strain element is applied to the 2D problem to observe the Von Mises equivalent stress concentration at the both shearing edges. As the punch penetrates into the sheet material, the stress concentration generated on both edges is getting increased to be the shearing surface. The limits of the punching depth applied to the simulation is 16% and 24% of the sheet thickness for the plain strain element and the hexahedral element, respectively. The hexahedral element and the limit of punching depth were applied to the deformation analysis of the lead frame for the blanking process. The FEM results for the lead deformation were very good agreement with the experimental ones. This paper shows that the coarse mesh has enabled to analyze the lead deformation generated due to the blanking mechanism. This simple approach to save the calculation time will be very effective to the design of the blanking tools in industries.

This paper treats the failure analysis of prestressing steel wires with different kinds of localised damage in the form of a surface defect (crack or notch) or as a mechanical action (transverse loads). From the microscopical point of view, the micromechanisms of fracture are shear dimples (associated with localised plasticity) in the case of the transverse loads and cleavage-like (related to a weakest-link fracture micromechanism) in the case of cracked wires. In the notched geometries the microscopic modes of fracture range from the ductile micro-void coalescence to the brittle cleavage, depending on the stress triaxiality in the vicinity of the notch tip. From the macroscopical point of view, fracture criteria are proposed as design criteria in damage tolerance analyses. The transverse load situation is solved by using an upper bound theorem of limit analysis in plasticity. The case of the cracked wire may be treated using fracture criteria in the framework of linear elastic fracture mechanics on the basis of a previous finite element computation of the stress intensity factor in the cracked cylinder. Notched geometries require the use of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and numerical analysis of the stress-strain state at the failure situation. A fracture criterion is formulated on the basis of the critical value of the effective or equivalent stress in the Von Mises sense.

To investigate the validity of the finite element analysis program to assess structural integrity of a spent nuclear fuel transport cask subjected to extreme impact loads, structural integrity of the cask for the case of an aircraft engine collision is evaluated using three FE analysis programs: Autodyn, Speed and ABAQUS explicit version. As a result of all analyses, it is confirmed that no penetration occurred in the cask wall. Even though the different programs are used, it is identified that there are insignificant differences in the FE analysis variables such as von Mises effective stress and equivalent plastic strain among the programs.

알루미늄 합금과 같은 경량소재의 적용을 통한 무게 감소는 연료절감과 대기 오염 감소에 기여할 수 있다. 알루미늄 합금 재료는 피로수명에 대한 강도 측면에서 철강(steel) 소재에 비하여 취약한 단점을 가지고 있다. 부품들의 안전성을 희생시키지 않고 자동차 부품 경량화를 이루기 위해 많은 연구자들이 보다 가볍고 강한 서스펜션 링크들에 관한 연구를 진행해 왔다. 본 연구에서는 기존 STKM11A 철강소재로 설계된 토크 스트럿을 245 MPa의 인장강도 소재인 알루미늄 합금(A356) 소재로 대체하기 위한 경량화 설계 과정에 대하여 von-Mises 응력 변화를 분석하여 연구하였다. 최적화된 설계는 경량화 이전 강재로 설계된 링크보다 42% 이상 경량화 시킬 수 있었으며 이는 토크 스트럿 개발의 안전한 경량화 설계조건 및 경량화 설계에 대한 가이드에 참고가 될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구에서는 국내 고정익항공기 개발의 일환으로 고정익항공기용 외부 연료탱크와 파일런에 대한 피로해석을 수행하였다. 구조해석을 통해 외부 연료탱크와 파일런의 피로해석 부위들을 선정하고, 선정된 부위들에서 단위하중에 대한 전달함수를 구축하였다. 연속 하중 프로파일에 대해서 각 프로파일 하중과 전달함수와의 내적을 통해 선정 부위에서의 응력 성분을 계산한 후, Von Mises 등가응력을 사용하여 각 프로파일의 대표응력(Representative Stress)을 계산하였다. 그리고, 구축된 대표 응력 그룹에 Rainflow Counting 기법을 사용하여 초기의 방대한 하중 프로파일로 부터 축소된 개별 프로파일과 그에 대한 진폭 및 평균값을 추출한 후, MMPDS(Metallic Materials Properties Development and Standardization)의 S-N 선도를 적용하여 수명싸이클을 계산하였다. 만약, 추출된 개별 프로파일들의 Stress Ratio가 선정된 S-N 선도의 Stress Ratio 범위를 벗어나는 경우 Modified Goodman 선도로부터 유도된 식을 사용하여 Stress Ratio가 해당 S-N 선도에서 요구하는 범위를 만족하도록 변환하는 과정을 거쳤다. 그리고, Miner's Rule에 의해 계산된 각 프로파일들의 손상값들을 더하여 선정 부위에서의 수명을 평가하였다. 최종적으로 수명평가를 위해 선정된 외부연료탱크와 파일런의 관심 부위에서 요구 수명을 모두 만족하는 것으로 평가되었다.

Oral implants must fulfill certain criteria arising from special demands of function, which include biocompatibility, adequate mechanical strength, optimum soft and hard tissue integration, and transmission of functional forces to bone within physiological limits. And one of the critical elements influencing the long-term uncompromise functioning of oral implants is load distribution at the implant- bone interface, Factors that affect the load transfer at the bone-implant interface include the type of loading, material properties of the implant and prosthesis, implant geometry, surface structure, quality and quantity of the surrounding bone, and nature of the bone-implant interface. To understand the biomechanical behavior of dental implants, validation of stress and strain measurements is required. The finite element analysis (FEA) has been applied to the dental implant field to predict stress distribution patterns in the implant-bone interface by comparison of various implant designs. This method offers the advantage of solving complex structural problems by dividing them into smaller and simpler interrelated sections by using mathematical techniques. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stresses induced around the implants in bone using FEA, A 3D FEA computer software (SOLIDWORKS 2004, DASSO SYSTEM, France) was used for the analysis of clinical simulations. Two types (external and internal) of implants of 4.1 mm diameter, 12.0 mm length were buried in 4 types of bone modeled. Vertical and oblique forces of lOON were applied on the center of the abutment, and the values of von Mises equivalent stress at the implant-bone interface were computed. The results showed that von Mises stresses at the marginal. bone were higher under oblique load than under vertical load, and the stresses were higher at the lingual marginal bone than at the buccal marginal bone under oblique load. Under vertical and oblique load, the stress in type I, II, III bone was found to be the highest at the marginal bone and the lowest at the bone around apical portions of implant. Higher stresses occurred at the top of the crestal region and lower stresses occurred near the tip of the implant with greater thickness of the cortical shell while high stresses surrounded the fixture apex for type N. The stresses in the crestal region were higher in Model 2 than in Model 1, the stresses near the tip of the implant were higher in Model 1 than Model 2, and Model 2 showed more effective stress distribution than Model.

This study investigates structural and vibration analyses according to the thickness of bicycle frame tube. The model of bicycle frame has the dimension as length of 862mm, width of 100mm and hight of 402.5mm. There are 3 kinds of models with tubes of top, down and seat at bicycle frame as thicknesses of 10, 15 and 20mm. The maximum displacement and stress occur at the center part of seat stay and at the installation part of rear wheel respectively. Maximum displacements become 0.031936, 0.029159 and 0.027984mm in cases of thicknesses of 10, 15 and 20mm respectively. In case of thickness of 20mm among 3 cases, maximum displacement becomes lowest. But maximum stresses become 10.019, 8.5492 and 9.2511MPa in cases of thicknesses of 10, 15 and 20mm respectively. In case of thickness of 15mm among 3 cases, maximum stress becomes lowest. There is no resonance at practical driving conditions and natural frequency remains almost unchanged along the change of thickness. In case of the displacement due to vibration mode, the displacement difference at thickness between 15mm and 20mm becomes 1/2 times than that between 10mm and 15mm. Design at bicycle frame tube becomes most economical and durable effectively in case of thickness of 15mm among 3 cases.

In general, the load which acts on the structure is almost independent of time in many locations. In this case. It is difficult to estimate the life with the service load history, because the structure is on the multi- axial and multi-point loading states. In this study, the service load of the excavator which is widely used in industry field was calculated using measured cylinder pressures and displacements. The fatigue life was estimated using the multi-axial and multi-point load counting method. Service load history of 4 pin joint which act independently each other is yielded by mult-axial and multi-point load counting method. The stress spectrum is yielded by superposition of the results of FEM stress analysis applied unit load. Palm- gren-Miner's cumulative Damage is 0.000804 for Von Mises equivalent stress sequence by one side fillet weld S-N curve. This result agress with Bench test results. As a result of this study, the fatigue life esti- mation using the multi-axial and multi-axial and multi-point load counting method is useful.

Solvent-free paint is sprayed from higher-pressure conditions, because the viscosity is large. The hydraulic actuator which can be operated under higher-pressure condition is required to spray solvent-free paints in painting process for the environmental protection. The purpose of this paper is to develop the hydraulic actuator under higher-pressure conditions for solvent-free paint spraying system. The hydraulic actuator consists of inner spool, outer spool and ball. The analysis of a structural stability was conducted by using ANSYS V11 under the design condition of upward and downward movement of spool. As a result, the maximum von-Mises stress applied on spool under 4mm displacement showed a value of 106MPa which was greater than the allowable stress of the spool with a value of 250MPa and a value of safety factor 3. This result suggested that the spool system be unstable under the design condition so that it was necessary for the spool system to be reinforced to secure the structural stability.

In this study, static and fatigue tests on the self-piercing riveted (SPR) joint were conducted using cross-shaped specimens with aluminum alloy (Al-5052) sheets. Mixed mode loading was achieved by changing the loading angles of 0, 45, and 90 degrees using a special fixture to evaluate the static and fatigue strengths of the SPR joints under mixed mode loading conditions. Simulations of the specimens at three loading angles were carried out using the finite element code ABAQUS. The fatigue specimens failed in an interfacial mode where a crack initiated at the upper sheet and propagated along the longitudinal direction and finally fractured Maximum principal stress, von-Mises effective stress failed to correlate the fatigue lifetimes at three loading angles. However, the equivalent stress intensity factor was found to be appropriate to correlate the fatigue lifetimes at three loading angles.
