Structural optimization for ball valve made of CF8M stainless steel Xue-Guan SONG, Seung-Gyu KIM, Seok-Heum BAEK, Young-Chul PARK Department of Mechanical Engineering, Dong-A University, Busan 604-714, Korea Received 2 March 2009; accepted 30 May 2009 Abstract: The mechanical and chemical properties of CF8M were studied through experiments. An application of CF8M in valve body was analyzed by using finite element method(FEM) to evaluate the structural safety. An optimization containing several variables based on the response surface method(RSM) was conducted to find the optimum dimension of th
