자동차 방진고무부품 통합설계시스템 개발

The fatigue analysis and lifetime evaluation are very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability of the rubber components. Recently, the design, analysis and evaluation technology was required to achieve the high quality, fidelity, reliability of rubber products. However, rubber manufacturing companies of our country have uesd the method of trial and error and experience in the process of a compound mixing, manufacturing and improvement of rubber properties. The objectives of this study are to establish the test methods of rubber material and to make the database of rubber material properties and to evaluate the performance of rubber components and to construct the prediction system of fatigue life. Fatigue lifetime prediction methodology of the rubber component was proposed by incorporating the finite element analysis and fatigue damage parameter from fatigue test.
