Surface friction welding (SFW) is a newly developed technology fur joining thin metal sheets, which utilizes friction between tool and weldment. In the present study, the 5052 and 1050 Al sheets were locally surface-modified using SFW technology. Formability of the locally surface-modified sheets was superior to that of the parent material. Yield or tensile strengths of the locally surface-modified specimens were lower then those of the parent material, but elongations of the locally surface-modified specimens were higher then that of the parent material.

In order to analyse stretching of perforated sheets for shadow masks by the finite element method for use with the associated flow rule, yield functions which can explain the yield stresses and the apparent plastic contraction ratios of the sheets have been obtained. Coefficients in the yield functions could be determined from the measured apparent plastic contraction ratios under uniaxial tension. Using this yield function and estimated coefficients, the stretching of hole-type and slot-type sheets has been analysed and compared with the experimental results. The calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental results.

Due to their low density, high specific strength and electromagnetic interference shielding, magnesium alloy sheets are used increasingly more often in automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries. However, magnesium ally sheets should be usually formed at elevated temperature because of their poor formability at room temperature. For the use of magnesium alloy sheets for an industrial, their mechanical properties at elevated temperature and appropriate forming process conditions have to be developed. In this study, the warm deep drawing process of AZ31 sheets is studied numerically by non-isothermal simulation. The difference between the isothermal simulation results and the non-isothermal simulation results and the progress of warm forming are discussed.

Asymmetric rolling, where circumferential velocities of the upper and lower rolls differ, can be one method to change texture of magnesium alloy sheet by introducing shear deformation throughout the thickness of a sheet. In this study, the texture, microstructure and mechanical properties of AZ31 Mg sheets has been investigated during the symmetrical rolling procedure and the asymmetric rolling procedures of different roll speeds with different roll diameters. Texture of Mg alloy sheets were evaluated by using X-ray diffraction and ODFs were calculated using ADC method. The major texture of rolled specimens can be expressed by ND//(0001) fiber texture. The major fiber texture changed according to the rolling processes and such a slight difference of texture changes the formability of sheets. The mechanical properties were enhanced during asymmetrical rolling.

In this study, in order to obtain a useful guide line for design and production of automotive heat exchanger components made of 4343/3003/4343 aluminum clad sheets, it was aimed to improve the understanding about the grain refinement effect on brazing characteristic of the clad sheets. Al-10Ti master alloy was used for grain refinement of 3003 core alloy, and the Ti inoculation level was systematically changed up to 0.1 wt%. The three-layer aluminum clad sheets were fabricated by hot roll bonding process. The effect of grain refinement on brazing characteristic of the clad sheets was investigated by evaluating wettability, bonding strength and sagging resistance.

Main issues in the automotive industry are the reduction of vehicle body weight for energy savings and improvement of crashworthiness for passenger safety. In order to address both these issues, there has recently been increasing application of galvannealed advance high strength steel (GA AHSS) sheets for automobiles. However, GA AHSS sheets have some surface defects such as coating bare spots due to the addition of solid-solution strengthening elements, which result in the deterioration of the galvannealing reaction. In this study, the effects of galvannealed manufacturing conditions on surface and mechanical properties, resistance spot weldability on a laboratory scale, and GA 980 MPa steel sheets produced by commercial continuous galvannealing line (CGL) were investigated.

In this study, analysis and design programs of bending of RC beams strengthened with fiber sheets are developed by using Visual Basic Language. The program consists two groups, ultimate strength method and nonlinear flexural analysis method. Ultimate strength method regards concrete compressive stress as a rectangular stress block and do not consider tensile stress of concrete and load-deflection curves. On the other hand, nonlinear flexural analysis considers tensile stress of concrete, load-deflection curves, state of stress distribution and failure strain of strengthening material. Also, the analysis method used in this study regards nonlinear flexural stress as compressive stress of concrete. This program can be a good tool for determining the bending strength of strengthened RC beams and estimating the amount of fiber sheets for practical use.

This paper investigates the temperature history of slab mock-up specimens with various surface curing sheets, in order to determine a favorable surface curing method in hot weather condition. Test showed that insulating double bubble sheets+aluminum foil simultaneously on the upper section of a specimen prevented an increase of sudden temperature and a decrease of vaporization when placed during the hot weather condition. It also secured the high strength in early age. Therefore it is found that using the double bubble sheets+aluminum foil on concrete surface declined the plastic and drying shrinkage and inclined the early strength, thus improving the concrete quality.

In this study, EM wave absorbers based on Au coated conductive sheets were prepared, and their reflection and transmission coefficients were investigated. An Au coated conductive sheet showed the transmission loss higher than 40 dB in $1{\sim}18$ GHz. Ba ferrite EM wave absorbers with an Au coated conductive sheet showed enhanced EM wave absorption and shield to compare with Ba ferrite EM wave absorbers without conductive sheets. Proposed EM wave absorbers with conductive sheets are useful to protect EM machines from EM interference by strayfields.

Drawability and other mechanical properties of sheet metals are strongly dependent on their crystallographic orientations. In this paper the formability of the AA 5052 Al alloy sheets was investigated after asymmetric rolling and subsequent heat treatment. In most cases, after asymmetric rolling specimens showed a fine grain size and subsequent heat treated specimens showed that the ND//<111> texture component were observed. The anisotropy of formability is often described by the plastic strain ratios (r-value) as a function of the angle to the rolling direction in sheet metal. For a good formability, a high r-value is required in sheet metals. In the asymmetry rolled and subsequent heat treated Al alloy sheet, the variation of the plastic strain ratios have been investigated in this study. The plastic strain ratios of the asymmetry rolled and subsequent heat treated AA 5052 Al alloy sheets were higher than those of the original Al sheets. These could be related to the formation of ND//<111> texture components through asymmetric rolling in Al sheet.
