In vehicle door system, weatherstrip seals protect passengers form noise, dust, rain and wind out of the vehicle. The higher efficient a weatherstrip is, the more durable it is in contact between the door and body frame. In this study, nonlinear finite element(FE) analysis is performed to obtain cauchy-stresses, displacements and reaction forces of the weatherstrip. Mechanical properties of the weatherstrip is obtained by uniaxial tension test. The MARC which is a commercial software for the nonlinear analysis of a flexible FE model is used. Twenty-one cases of the FE model are developed by using Ogden-foam formulation. In the results of nonlinear FE analysis, the most valuable deformation of the weatherstrip occurred when displacement control value reaches 7.2mm. Severe deformation is observed as the displacement control value become more increased. When the weatherstrip is designed, it would be considered that the displacement value of the weatherstrip has to be less than 7.2mm.

This study investigates solving production problems in an automotive stamping plant using Finite Element (FE) analysis. The fundamentals of stamping, metal plasticity and FE analysis are developed. In this paper, we provide the basis for a simulation of the stamping of a production part, the automotive rear floorpan. On-plant factorial Design of Experiments (DoE) were simulated using the floorpan model. The accuracy of the simulations was undetermined because of variability in the DoE results. Predictions of flange shape, wrinkling and thickness show qualitative agreement with manufactured parts and indicate that simulating an industrial part is feasible.

This paper presents a numerical study on structural behavior of hammer head pier cap beams, extended on verges and reinforced with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates. A 3-D finite element (FE) model along with a simplified analytical model are presented. Concrete damage plasticity (CDP) was adapted in the FE model and an analytical approach predicting the CFRP anchor strength was adapted in both FE and analytical model. Total five quarter-scaled pier cap beams with various CFRP reinforcing schemes were experimentally tested and analyzed with numerical approaches. Comparison between experimental results, FE results, analytical results and current ACI guideline predictions was presented. The FE results showed good agreement with experimental results in terms of failure mode, ultimate capacity, load-displacement response and strain distribution. In addition, the proposed strut-and-tie based analytical model provides the most accurate prediction of ultimate strength of extended cap beams among the three numerical approaches.

이 연구의 목적은 하중기반 유한요소 정식화에 의한 FRP 보강된 철근콘크리트 보 또는 기둥 부재의 비선형 층상화의 등매개 골조 유한요소모델을 개발하는데 있다. 단면에서 콘크리트는 3축 응력-변형률 관계로 모델화하고 FRP 피복층은 2차원의 적층복합재료로 모델화하였다. 하중기반 유한요소의 요소강성행렬은 변위형상함수의 가정이 없고 하중보간함수를 갖고 있다. 횡 하중을 받는 GFRP 시트 보강된 철근콘크리트 기둥의 실험에 대해 개발된 하중기반 유한요소모델에 의한 해석을 수행하였다. 기존 강성도법의 유한요소해석과 비교하여 하중기반 유한요소해석은 전체적인 하중-변위 관계 뿐만 아니라 기둥의 소성힌지영역에서의 비선형 변형 및 손상을 보다 정확히 예측해 주었다.

이 연구는 대표적인 면진장치인 납고무베어링(LRB)의 유한요소모델의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위하여 주재료인 고무의 재료특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 고무는 일반적인 탄성재료와는 달리 대변형, 비선형특성을 가지는 초탄성 재료이다. 본 연구에서는 고무를 초탄성 재료로 가정하고 그의 재료특성을 변형률에너지함수로 표현하여 LRB의 유한요소모델을 개발하였다. 연구를 위하여 여러 변형률에너지함수 중 몇 가지를 선별하고 이를 이용하여 고무의 재료특성을 예측하였다. 변형률에너지함수를 이용하여 결정된 고무의 재료특성과 표준적인 납의 재료특성을 이용하여 LRB의 유한요소모델을 개발하고, 수평방향과 수직방향의 힘-변위 관계를 해석하였다. LRB의 유한요소모델을 통하여 해석으로 예측한 수평과 수직방향 강성을 실험결과와 비교함으로써 개발된 유한요소모델의 적합성을 검증하였다.

Investigated via a series of finite element process simulation is the effect of diverse process variables on some selected non-dimensional parameters characterizing the strip in hot strip rolling. Then on the basis of these parameters an on-line model is derived for the precise prediction of roll and roll power. The prediction accuracy of the proposed model is examined through comparison with predictions from a finite element process model.

In this paper, the results of finite element(FE) analysis of chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) process using 2-dimensional elements were discussed. The objective of this study is to find the generation mechanism of microscratches on a wafer surface during the process. Especially, a FE model with a particle inside pad pore was considered to observe how such a contact situation could contribute to microscratch generation. The results of the finite element simulations revealed that during CMP process the pad-particle mixture could be formed and this would be a major factor leading to microscratch generation.

A new model is suggested for the prediction of radial displacements of a roll in order to analyze multi-high rolling mills. The model was developed from predictions based on finite element simulations. This model utilizes the compliance coefficient, which is expressed as a function of three dimensionless parameters, and is approximated by using the same interpolation function as used in the finite element method. The prediction accuracy of the model is demonstrated through comparison with the predictions from the FE model.

In this study, the sheet metal forming process of the brake chamber head, which had a complex shape compared to the conventional head part, was investigated using finite element (FE) analysis. In order to prevent the forming failures such as necking and fracture, the multi-stage forming process was introduced. The forming process consisted of three steps: (1) first drawing, (2) second drawing, (3) final forming. Experimental and FE simulated results of the brake chamber head were compared, and the results showed that the required characteristics of the straightness and the wall thickness at each location were satisfied.
