In the interest of improved automotive fuel economy, one solution is reducing vehicle weight. Achieving significant weight reductions will normally require reducing the panel thickness or using alternative materials such as aluminum alloy sheet. These changes will affect the dent resistance of the panel. In this study, the correlation between panel size, curvature, thickness, material properties and dent resistance is investigated. A parametric approach is adopted, utilizing a "design software" tool incorporating empirical equations to predict denting and panel stiffness for simplified panels. The developed design program can be used to minimize panel thickness or compare different materials, while maintaining adequate panel performance.

This paper aims to synthesize the research on fatigue mechanisms of high strength aluminum alloys which are widely used in motorcars or airplanes to prevent accidents. To measure the data of crack opening ratio, the same materials and methods are used for evaluating the fatigue crack propagation rate as an effective stress intensity factor. But, many researchers have brought different results. An exact crack opening ratio was, therefore, proposed for getting a more accurate fatigue crack propagation rate.

It is generally applied constraint welding condition to structure manufacture in the industry field. But it is thinkable that the residual stress of the construction and specimens for experiment is different because not constraint welding but non-constraint welding are applied for experiment. To apply the constraint welding condition as the industry field and compare and evaluate the welding residual stress distribution, the TlG welding of the pure titanium was carried out under constraint and non-constraint welding conditions

The results of source location in terms of AE signal occurred by the spot exciting as suggested in this research, it has been confirmed that AE technique is quite fruitful in figuring out the location of the occurrence, form, size and direction of the defects. Thus, it is expected that the application of the experimental method suggested in this study would make it possible to identify, in the nondestructive way, the location of the defect in the material.

This paper investigates the effects of shot peening on mechanical properties of SAE 9254, which is a spring steel used for the suspension system of automobiles. Rotary Bending Fatigue test is accomplished and the results are summarized as fellows : 1. The tensile strength and the hardness do not change so much. 2. The layer of highly residual stress is obtained by multi-stage shot peening. 3. The fatigue strength seems to be improved by residual stress. 4. The fatigue strength of un-peened and multistage shot peened material are 425 MPa and 756 MPa, respectively.

When non-contact type vibration probes are used for the precision measurement of shaft vibration, they can induce the measurement errors due to the shaft curvature since they have been calibrated for the flat plate. In this study the errors due to the shaft radius and the misalignment between the shaft and probe centerlines are analyzed, and an in-situ calibration tool, which can be conveniently used for calibration independent of the shaft curvature and material, is introduced.

The key factor of quality in precision metal forming is to meet the requirements of parts size and shape. Particular problem of unflatness occurs frequently. This study focuses on figuring out the cause of unflatness. To predict the amount of unflatness after ejection from tool, equivalent temperature method is used. This method, temperature equivalent to the final stress value is calculated, and it is applied as the boundary condition of the linear static analysis. The final of formed part is used as the geometry model of the static analysis.

In machining die cavities or mechanical parts, we often encounter the needs to remove a material within a given boundary. Even though this pocket cutting capability has been implemented in many NC packages, most of them can handle convex shaped pockets bounded by curves of limited types and numbers. In this work, a procedure has been developed to machine pockets of a free surface bounded by lines, circular arcs and free curves. Also, the cutter location data is computed directly without using iterative method for better computational efficiency.

The purpose of this project is to develop an automatic cutting robot system of cast steel, which raise productivity with improvement of working circumstances, overcomming labor deficiency, reduction of process and cycle time by applying cutting automation at inferior working circumstances and condition of a foundry. This system consisted of a 5 DOF tool system, an improved conveyer system and the HR-8608 ROBOT, makes it possible to get the reduction of 12 manpowers and 30% productivity up.
