The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of springback for various process conditions of the 2D draw-bending operation. The process variables are the forming temperature, the geometry of tools such as punch profile radius(Rp) and die profile radius(Rd). Especially, in order to control the springback, the use of the warm forming method is applied. For the warm draw-bending, five steps of temperature ranges, from room temperature to $200^{\circ}C$, were adopted. And two kinds of steel sheets, namely SCP1 and TRIP(transformation-induced plasticity), the newly developed high strength Steel, were adopted. As a result, the springback was affected by the elevated temperature and the geometry of tools in two kinds of steel sheets.

The wrinkling of thin sheet metal induced by compressive instability is one of major defects in sheet metal forming processes. compressive instability is influence by many factors such as mechanical properties of the sheet material geometry of the sheet contact conditions and plastic anisotropy. The analysis of compressive instability in a plastically deforming body is rather difficult because the effects of the above-mentioned factors are rather complex and the instability behavior may show swide variations even for small deviations of the factors. in this work the bifurcation theory is introduced for the finite elemental analysis of the instability behavior of a thin sheet with initially sound geometry and property. All the above-mentioned factors are conveniently considered by the finite element method. The instability limit is found by introducing a criterion scheme into the incremental analysis and the post-bifurcation behavior is analyzed by introducing the branching scheme. Wrinkling initiation and growth in the deep drawing process are analyzed.

Geometry control of precast members is the most important technology for modular construction. In this paper, image-based modeling and rendering (IBMR) technology was adopted for 3D modeling of precast elements. It is necessary to use match-casting method for precast post-tensioned column assembly. Preassembly using 3D models created by image processing can minimize construction error. Augmented reality devices are used to check the geometry of the segment. Laboratory-scale tests were performed. The proposed process has been applied to the real precast bridge pier segments.

Casting structures and properties are determined by the solidification speed in the metal mold. The heat transfer characteristics of the interface between the mold and the casting is one of the major factors that control the solidification speed. According to Sully's research, the thermal resistance exists due to the air-gap formation at the mold-casting interface during the freezing process and the interface heat transfer coefficient is used to describe the degree of it. In this study, one-dimensional Stefan problem with air-gap resistance in the cylindrical geometry is considered and heat transfer characteristics is numerically examined. The temperature distribution and solidification speed are obtained by using the modified variable time step method. And the effects of the major parameters such as mold geometry, thermal conductivity, heat transfer coefficient and initial temperature of casting on the thermal characteristics are investigated.

In this paper, a full vehicle model is developed to analyze toe and camber changes due to rack height variation and compliance. The AutoDyn7 program developed in G7 project is used for the computer simulation. Steady state cornering test was done to find the understeer gradient. Imposing a pulse steer input, Frequency Response Function(FRF) of yaw rate and lateral accelerations were evaluated. To verify the stability, the rhombus using four parameters is employed. Steer characteristics were evaluated by changing the rack height and the bushing lateral stiffiness. which installed between the low control arm and the chassis.

Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian finite element methods gain interest for the capability to control mesh geometry independently from material geometry, the ALE methods are used to create a new undistorted mesh for the fluid domain. In this paper we use the ALE technique to solve fuel slosh problem. Fuel slosh is an important design consideration not only for the fuel tank, but also for the structure supporting the fuel tank. "Fuel slosh" can be generated by many ways: abrupt changes in acceleration (braking), as well as abrupt changes in direction (highway exit-ramp). Repetitive motion can also be involved if a "sloshing resonance" is generated. These sloshing events can in turn affect the overall performance of the parent structure. A finite element analysis method has been developed to analyze this complex event. A new ALE formulation for the fluid mesh has been developed to keep the fluid mesh integrity during the motion of the tank. This paper explains the analysis capabilities on a technical level. Following the explanation, the analysis capabilities are validated against theoretical using potential flow for calculating fuel slosh frequency.

Advanced driving assist system can support safety of driver and passengers which may require vehicle dynamics states as well as road geometry. It is essential to have in real-time estimation of related variables and parameters. Among the road geometry parameters, road slope angle which can not be measured is essential parameter in pose estimation, adaptive cruise control and others on sag road. In this paper, Kalman filter based method for the estimation of the vehicle dynamics and road slope angle using a nonlinear vehicle model is proposed. It uses a combination of Kalman filter as Cascade Extended Kalman Filter. CEKF uses measured vehicle states such as yaw rate, longitudinal/lateral acceleration and velocity. Unknown vehicle parameters such as center of gravity and inertia are obtained by 2 D.O.F lateral model and experimentally. Simulation and Experimental tests conducted with commercialized vehicle dynamics model and real-car.

In this paper, static nonlinear analysis of gable frame is performed using OpenSees software. Both geometric and material nonlinearities are considered in analyses. To consider large displacements, co-rotational coordinate transformation is used in software. The effects of symmetric and asymmetric support conditions including clamped and simple supports are studied. On the other hand, the material nonlinearity is reflected on analyses using Giuffre-Menegotto-Pinto steel material. Note that strain hardening characteristics are also considered in this model. Moreover, I-shaped cross-section is assumed for all members. The results are provided for different geometry properties of gable frame including shallow and deep inclined roof. It should be added that buckling and post-buckling behaviors of gable frame are investigated using related equilibrium paths. A comparison study is also implemented on the responses of buckling loads obtained for different support and geometry conditions. To trace snap-through paths completely, a displacement control method entitled arc-length is utilized. Findings show the capability of proposed model in nonlinear analysis of gable frames.

The analysis and control of a new type unsymmetrical slotted self-bearing step motor for small angle control is presented. The motor actuator is used for both motor and bearing functionality without any additional coil windings or electromagnets for bearing functionality. A circular-arc, straight-line permeance model for the fringing effect is presented. An unsymmetrical slotted self-bearing step motor layout and control algorithm are described. A new control current generation method using the electromagnets layout geometry, which needs no additional current for bearing functionality, is proposed. As the result of this analysis the fringing effect largely influences on the system characteristics. especially in torque. Even if the bearing functionality is added into the motor functionality, it is shown that the magnitude of torque is not changed.
