The history of polyurethane is relatively shorter compared to that of the other polymers, though its importance has grown rapidly. Due to its unique properties, polyurethanes are widely applied in various fields. In particular, the automotive industry is one of the important application fields. To date, polyols and isocyanates used in the polyurethane industry are generally of petrochemical origin. Recently, owing to the oil crisis, legislation, and growing awareness towards environmental preservation, the demand for more sustainable and eco-friendly raw materials has increased. In this paper, the latest research and development trends in polyurethane applications were reviewed, with a focus on the automobile industry in areas such as seat comfort, noise reduction, light weight, biomass-based polyurethane, and recycling.

An optimum blank design technology is required for near-net of net-shape cold forming using sheets. Originally, the backward tracing scheme has been developed for preform design in bulk forming, and applied to several forming processes successfully. Its key concept is to trace backward from the final desirable configuration to an intermediate preform of initial blocker. A program for initial blank design in sheet forming which contains the capabilities of forward loading simulation by the finite element method and backward tracing simulation, has been developed and proved the effectiveness by applying to a square cup stamping process. In the blank design of square cup stamping, the backward tracing program can produce an optimum blank configuration which forms a sound net-shape cup product without machining after forming. Another general application appears in the blank design of a cup stamping with protruding flanges, one of typical automobile components. The blank configurations derived by backward tracing simulation have been confirmed by a series of loading simulations. The approach or decision of an initial blank configuration presented in this study will be a milestone in fields of sheet forming process design.

Tube hydroforming process is generally consisted with pre-bending, preforming and hydroforming processes. Among forming defects which may occur in tube hydroforming such as buckling, wrinkling and bursting, the wrinkling and bursting by local instability under excessive tensile stress mode were mainly caused by thinning phenomenon in the manufacturing process. Thus the accurate prediction and suitable evaluation of the thinning phenomenon play an important role in designing and producing the successfully hydroformed parts without any failures. In this work, the formability on hydroformed part for automobile, i.e. engine cradle, was evaluated using finite element analysis. The initial tube radius, loading path with axial feeding force and internal pressure, and preformed configuration after preforming process were considered as the dominant process parameters in total tube hydroforming process. The effects on these process parameters could be confirmed through the numerical experiments with respect to several kinds of finite element simulation conditions. The degree of enhancement on formability with each process parameters such as initial tube radius, loading path and preform configuration were also compared. Therefore, it is noted that the evaluation approach of the formability on hydroformed parts for lots of industrial fields proposed in this study will provide one of feasible methods to satisfy the increasing practical demands for the improvement of the formability in tube hydroforming processes.

Due to recent industrial growth and development, there has been a high demand for light and highly durable materials. Therefore, a variety of new materials has been developed. These new materials include carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP or CRP), which is a wear-, fatigue-, heat-, and corrosion-resistant material. Because of its advantageous properties, CFRP is widely used in diverse fields including sporting goods, electronic parts, and medical supplies, as well as aerospace, automobile, and ship materials. However, this new material has several problems, such as delamination around the inlet and outlet holes at drilling, fiber separation, and tearing on the drilled surface. Moreover, drill chips having a fine particulate shape are harmful to the work environment and engineers' health. In fact, they deeply penetrate into machine tools, causing the reduction of lifespan and performance degradation. In this study, CFRP woven and unidirectional prepregs were formed at $45^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$, respectively, in terms of orientation angle. Using a high-speed steel drill and a TiAIN-coated drill, the two materials were tested in three categories: cutting force with respect to RPM and feed speed; shape changes around the input and outlet holes; and the shape of drill chips.

Most of traditional design processes of mechanical parts are regarded as sequential and discrete, since different kinds of softwas should be introduced. In this paper, we develop an integrated fram ework for virtual design and performance testing of an automobile seat. The system is composed of four modules, i.e. CAD, static analysis, dynamic analysis, and draft drawing module. In the CAD module, PRO/ENGINEER 3D seat model is created using parameters to be modified with the result of static and dynamic analysis. In the static analysis, headrest tere used in each design stage make it difficult to feedback their results to upstream process. These discrete processes may result in time loss and cost rise. In recent years, life cycle of product is reduced. To have competence with others, new concept design processt is simulated using ANSYS. In the dynamic analysis module, FMVSS201 test is simulated using DADS. Overall data flow is controlled by Motif. The advantage of the system is that even a novice can perform and review the whole design process, without a good hand at professional design/analysis S/W in each stage. The system also provides a virtual design space, where engineers in different development stage can access common data of design models. The concept could be applied to other fields and it could reduce time and money required in design process.

최근 시스템 반도체 발전으로 인하여 자동차 산업의 전장(電裝)에 대한 기술혁신이 빠르게 진행되고 있다. 특히, 자동차의 전장화는 자동차 부품업체들의 기술개발 경쟁을 가속화시키고 있으며, 개발 주기 또한 빠르게 변화하고 있다. 이러한 변화로 인하여 연구개발에 대한 전략과 기획의 중요성은 더욱 강화되고 있다. 자동차 산업의 패러다임 변화로 인하여, 연구개발 전략 중의 하나인 제품-기술로드맵(P/TRM)은 기획 단계에서 기술예측, 기업의 기술수준평가, 기술획득방법(Make/Collaborate/Buy) 등의 분석을 통하여 개발이 이루어져야 한다. 제품-기술로드맵은 제품과 기술의 고객 니즈를 파악하고 기술의 선정, 개발방향을 설정하는 툴(Tool)로써, 미래의 발전방향 추세를 예측하고 매크로(Macro) 트랜드의 전략적 방향성과 목표를 설정하는데 사용된다. 하지만, 대부분의 기업에서는 해당 기술의 논문이나 특허 분석, 전문가 델파이에 주로 의존하는 정성적인 방법을 통하여 제품-기술로드맵을 개발하고 있다. 본 연구는 가트너의 하이프 사이클과 누적이동평균 기반 데이터 전처리, 딥러닝(LSTM) 시계열 분석 기법을 융합하여 자동차 산업 중심으로 제품-기술로드맵을 보완하고 강화시킬 수 있는 시뮬레이션을 통하여 실증 연구를 진행하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 실증 연구는 자동차 산업 뿐만 아니라, 범용적으로 타제조업 분야에서도 사용 가능할 수 있다. 또한, 기업적인 측면에서는 그동안 정성적인 방법에 의존하던 로드맵 작성 방법에서 탈피하여 좀 더 정확한 제품-기술로드맵을 통하여 적기에 시장에 제품을 제공함으로써 선도업체로 나아가기 위한 밑거름이 될 것이라고 사료된다.

Passenger safety is one of the most important considerations in the purchase of an automobile. A curtain-type air bag is increasingly adapted in deluxe cars for protecting passengers from the danger of side clash. Inflator housing is a main part of the curtain-type air bag system for supplying high-pressure gases to pump up the air bag-curtain. Although the inflator housing is fundamental in designing a curtain-type air bag system, flow information on the inflator housing is very limited. In this study, we measured instantaneous velocity fields of a high-speed flow ejecting from the inflator housing using a dynamic PIV system. From the velocity field data measured at a high frame-rate, we evaluated the variation of the mass flow rate with time. From the instantaneous velocity fields of flow ejecting from the airbag inflator housing in the initial stage, we can see a flow pattern of broken shock wave front and its downward propagation. The flow ejecting from the inflator housing was found to have large velocity fluctuations and the maximum velocity was about 700m/s. The velocity of high-speed flow was decreased rapidly and the duration of high-speed flow over 400m/s was maintained only to 30ms. After 100ms, there was no perceptible flow.

비파괴검사중의 하나인 초음파 탐상검사는 교량, 발전설비 및 석유화학플랜트 등의 각종 다양한 구조물들의 안전성 확보를 위한 내부결함 및 손상평가를 위하여 일반적으로 폭넓게 사용되고 있다. 초음파를 이용한 데 파괴 평가 기술은 각종 구조물에 존재하는 내부결함에 의한 산란신호를 통해 건전성을 평가하는 기법이므로 결함의 신뢰성 녹은 정량적 평가를 위해서는 결함으로부터의 초음파 산란산호특성에 대한 기본적 이해가 필수적이며 따라서 이를 위한 모델링 수치해석 연구가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 동탄성 경계요소법을 이용하여 무한체내에 존재하는 다중기공 결함에 의한 초음파 수평횡파의 근거리 산란특성에 대하여 결함의 형상과 결함사이의 상호작용을 고려하여 해석하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과들은 결함검출 민감도의 개선 및 역변환 해석에 의한 정량적 비파괴 평가에 큰 도움을 줄 수 있다.
