Dual Mesh

Numerical modeling of longitudinal rolling usually requires high computational power meanwhile it still takes long time to simulate multi pass process. Different methods for increasing of accuracy and speed of rolling simulation have being proposed recently. One of them is simultaneous use of two finite element meshes of different density, i.e. dual mesh method. The article is dedicated to solving of important problems of rolling technology and presents several examples of rolling simulation in QForm V8 based on dual mesh method.

As If

Present biologic models envision organisms behave like the character ‘Topsy’ in Gone with the Wind; they “just grew.” Modeled of Lego©-like components, the individual structures are linked together as if they are automobile parts that are manufactured at different plants and assembled at some central factory. For the most part, hexahedral finite element meshes are used to model structures. When tetrahedral modeling is used, no account is made of the different mechanical properties that are inherent in triangulated structures, (trusses), that make the structures behave very differently than hexahedral-based models.
