In this work, rapid prototyping and three dimensional finite element analysis are simltaneously applied to design metal forming processes. Rapid prototyping is a new prototyping technology which producess three dimensional part models directly from CAD data and has been extensively applied to various manufacturing processes. There are many types of rapid prototyping systems due to their building principles and materials. In this work, Stereolithography Apparatus (SLA) which is the most widely-used rapid prototyping system is introduced to manufacture the die set. To prepare STL file generally, mesh data which are in describing the die surface in finite element analysis are translated so that rapid prototyping and finite element analysis are effectively connected. The die sets are manufactured using SLA prototypes, and matal forming experiments are carried out using them. Comparing experiments results with analyses, the processes can be predicted and designed successfully.

Three dimensional (3D) non-linear finite element analysis of offshore pipeline is investigated in this work with the help of general purpose software Abaqus. The general algorithm for the finite element approach is introduced. The 3D seabed mesh, limited to a corridor along the pipeline, is extracted from survey data via Fledermous software. Moreover soil bearing capacity and coefficient of frictions, obtained from the field survey report, and are introduced into the finite element model through the interaction module. For a case of study, a 32inch pipeline with API 5L X65 material grade subjected to high pressure and high temperature loading is investigated in more details.

A three-dimensional finite element model has been used to simulate the bead on plate welding of curved steel plates having curvature in the welding direction. By using traditional method such as thermal-elastic-plastic(TEP) finite element analysis. the weld-induced deformation can be accurately predicted. However, three-dimensional finite element analysis is not practical in analyzing the weld-induced deformation of large and complex structures such as ship structures in view of computing time and cost. In this study, used is the equivalent loading method based on inherent strain to illustrate the effect of the longitudinal curvature upon the weld-induced deformation of curved plates.

For three-dimensional finite element welding residual stress simulation, several methods are available. Two widely used methods are the moving heat source model using heat flux and the temperature boundary condition model using the temperature profile of the welded beads. However, each model has pros and cons in terms of calculation times and difficulties in determining welding parameters. In this paper, a new method using the moving temperature profile model is proposed to perform efficiently 3-D FE welding residual stress analysis for large structures. Comparison with existing experimental residual stress measurement data of two-pass welding pipe and SNL(Sandia National Laboratories) mock-up canister shows the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.

In this study, the biomechanical characteristics of Kimplant were compared with that of Branemark implant by using three dimensional finite element analysis. Two finite element models were fabricated by inserting each implant into the bone model. The bone model was designed to have 18mm height, 13mm width and 15mm length. The size of each implant was planned to have 4mm width and 10mm length. A 200N force was applied on the center of abutment top in three directions - vertical, horizontal and oblique. After analyzing the stresses of fixture and surrounding bone, following results were obtained. 1. There was similar stress distribution between the two models. 2. The magnitude of maximum principal stress on the implant was similar between the two models but the location of maximum principal stress on the implant was different. 3. The magnitude and location of maximum principal stress on the surrounding bone was similar between the two models.

This paper presents the analysis of flows through three different types of radial compressor impeller by using quasi-three-dimensional analysis method. The method obtains two-dimensional solution for velocity distribution on meridional plane, and then calculates approximately the static pressure distributions on blade surfaces. Finite difference method is used for the solutions of governing equations. The compressors have low level compression-ratio and 12 straight radial blades with no backsweep. The results are compared with experimental data and the results of three-dimensional inviscid analysis with those by finite element method. It is found that the agreements with experimental data are good for the cases where viscous effects are not dominant.

Recently Development of construction system that subjective operators share and control information efficiently based on the three-dimensional space and design information throughout life cycle of construction project is progressing dynamically. In case of civil structures which are infrastructure, Demand for structure of complex system which has multi-functions such as super and smart bridges and express rails is increasing and system development which computerizes and integrates process of structure design is in need. For that, research about link way between three dimensional modeling data and structure analysis programs should be preceded. In this research, therefore, research about interface design between three dimensional virtual modeling data to automate efficient civil-structure-design and nonlinear finite element analysis program which is made up of reinforced concrete material model that express material's character clearly.

In order to obtain homogeneous and high quality products in powder compaction forging process, it is very important to control stress, strain, density and density distributions. Therefore, it is necessary to understand quantitatively the elasto-plastic deformation and densification behaviors of porous metals and metal powders. In this study, elasto-plastic finite element method using Lee-Kim's pressure dependent porous material yield function has been used for the analysis of three dimensional indenting process. The analysis predicts deformed geometry, stress, strain and density distribution and load. The calculated load is in good agreement with experimental one. The calculated results do not show axisymmetric distributions because of the edge effect. The core part which is in contact with the indentor and the outer diagonal edge part are in compressive stress states and the middle part is in tensile stress state. As a results, it can be concluded that three dimensional analysis is more realistic than axisymmetric assumption approach.

An integrated finite element-based model is presented for the prediction of the three dimensional, transient thermo-mechanical behavior of the work roll in hot strip rolling. The model is comprised of basic finite element models which are incorporated into an iterative solution procedure to deal with the interdependence between the thermo-mechanical behavior of the strip and that of work roll, which arises from roll-strip contact, as well as with the interdependence between the thermal and mechanical behavior. Demonstrated is the capability of the model to reveal the detailed aspects of the thermo-mechanical behavior and to reflect the effect of various process parameters.
