사장교 시스템의 초기형상해석이라 함은 주형의 수직 처짐과 휨모멘트, 주탑의 수평변위와 휨모멘트를 최소화하면서, 고정하중과 평형을 이룰 수 있는 케이블의 장력과 무응력길이를 결정하는 방법으로 이 때, 케이블이 정착되는 주형의 수평위치, 주탑의 수직위치가 목표형상에 부합할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 고정하중을 받는 사장교의 초기형상을 효율적이고 합리적으로 결정하기 위하여 개선된 초기부재력법과 TCUD법의 비교연구 결과를 제시하고자 한다. 주형과 주탑의 케이블 정착부에서 힘의 평형조건을 이용하여 주형의 수직처짐과 주탑의 수평변위를 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 절점평형법을 초기 부재력법에 적용하여 초기치에 민감한 기존 초기부재력법을 개선한다. 또한 개선된 TCUD법을 이용한 초기형상해석 수행결과와 비교함으로서 두 방법의 정확성을 입증하고자 한다.

고정하중을 받는 사장교의 최적 초기형상 결정을 위한 간략해석법을 제시한다. 이 방법은 비선형 유한요소 해석을 수행하지 않고 최적의 초기형상을 구현할 수 있으며, 최소의 휨모멘트를 발생시키는 무응력길이를 제공한다. 초기형상 해석 후 여타의 하중조합 또는 시공단계해석을 수행하기 위해 무응력길이를 변화시키지 않고 Newton-Raphson 반복법을 수행하는 무응력길이법을 이용한다. 수치예제는 제작캠버를 포함한 인천대교 2차원 모델이며, 제시된 해석법과 상용 유한요소해석 프로그램 MIDAS의 초기형상 해석결과를 비교 분석한다. 주로 케이블의 장력과 주부재의 휨모멘트 및 변위를 관찰하였으며, 두 해석결과는 축방향 변위를 제외하고 모든 결과 값이 서로 잘 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 이용해서 초기형상을 결정하는 새로운 방법으로 서 전방 투사법을 제안하고자 한다. 전방 투사법으로서 선형 보간을 이용한 방법과 소성 문제의 물리적인 특성을 고려하여 퍼지 로직을 도입한 퍼지시스템을 개발하려 한 다. 선형보간을 이용한 전방투사법은 임의의 초기 형상에 대한 유한 요소 해석 결과 얻어진 최종 형상에서의 미 충만 부피를 선형 보간하여 초기 형상에 적용함으로서 최 적 초기 형상을 결정하는 방법이다. 그러나 미 충만 부피의 변화가 미소할때에는 쉽 게 최적 초기 값을 찾지 못하는 경우가 발생하므로 유동 특성을 고려한 퍼지 로직을 구성하여 퍼지 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 방법을 리브-웨브(rbi-web)형태의 축대칭 단조 문제에 적용하고 유한 요소법에 의한 해석중 격자 재구성의 필요에 의해 단위체 격자 재구성법을 이용한다. 결정해야될 초기 형상의 변수로서는 형상비(aspect ra- tio=높이/지름)을 고려하기로 한다.

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 under-drive brake piston is an important component in automotive transmissions. It changes the velocity by controlling the gear ratio. It has been traditionally manufactured by hot forging. Recently, there has been an effort to replace this traditional manufacturing method with cold forging in order to improve the dimensional accuracy and decrease the surface roughness. Cold forging uses a smaller amount of initial material and also has a shorter cycle time since the forged surface can be the final surface without the need of post-processing such as machining or grinding. In the current study, finite element analysis was conducted to evaluate a process design using an initial plate with reduced thickness. This smaller thickness decreases the amount of material needed for the part as well as the machining to produce the final product.

Shape optimization was performed to obtain the precise shape of cutouts including the internal shape of cutouts in laminated composite plates by three dimensional modeling using solid element. The volume control of the growth-strain method was implemented and the distributed parameter chosen as Tsai-Hill fracture index for shape optimization. The volume control of the growth-strain method makes Tsai-Hill failure index at each element uniform in laminated composites under the initial volume. Then shapes optimized by Tsai-Hill failure index were compared with those of the initial shapes for the various load conditions and cutouts. The following conclusions were obtained in this study (1) It was found that growth-strain method was applied efficiently to shape optimization of three dimensional cutouts in a laminated composite plate, (2) The optimal shapes on the various load conditions and cutouts were obtained, (3) The maximum Tsai-Hill failure index was reduced up to 67% when shape optimization was performed under the initial volume by volume control of growth-strain method.

Preform design techniques have been investigated in efforts to reduce die wear and forming load and to improve material flow, filing ratio, etc. In hot forging processes, a thin deformed part of a workpiece, known as a flash, is formed in the narrow gap between the upper and lower tools. Although designers make tools that generate a flash intentionally in order to improve flow properties, excessive flash increases die wear and forming load. Therefore, it is necessary to make a preform shape that can reduce the excessive flash without changing flow properties. In this paper, a new preform design technique is proposed to reduce the excessive flash in a metal forging process. After a finite element simulation of the process is carried out with an initial billet, the flow of material in the flash region is traced from the final shape to the initial billet. The region belonging to the flash is then easily found in the initial billet. The finite element simulation is then carried out again with the modified billet from which the selected region has been removed. In several iterations of this technique, the optimal preform shape that minimizes the amount of flash without changing the forgeability can be obtained.

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.
