This study, with experiments and comparisons, aims to analyze the difference of stainless (SUS316L) microtubes in the flaring forming among dies with various semicone angles (35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, and 55°). The flow rule by Prandtl-Reuss combined with the finite element deformation theory and updated Lagrangian formulation (ULF) is applied to establish the finite element analysis equation for an incremental elastoplastic deformation to simulate the microtube flaring process. The broadrminalgorithm is utilized in the forming process for the elastoplastic state and die contact. The simulation data allow acquiring the deformation traceability, the relationship between punch load and punch stroke, the distribution of stress and strain, the distribution of the thinnest thickness resulted from dies with different semicone angles, and the distribution of flaring radius caused by dies with distinct semicone angles in the forming process. The experimental result presents similar results to the relationship between punch load and punch stroke and the simulation of the coefficient of frictionμ=0.05, revealing the analysis being suitable for the analysis of microtube cone angle flaring process. The analysis and experimental results show that the thinnest thickness of the microtube increases with increasing semicone angles of dies and the maximal flaring radius of microtubes increases with increasing semicone angles of dies.

This study is mainly based on five sets of mold cone angle and friction coefficient of micro-tube tube end necking forming analysis, and the tool cone angle of 60° experimental verification is carried out to analyze the titanium alloy (Grade 1) micro-tube for different mold cone angle and the different friction coefficient caused by the difference between the shrinkage forming. In this paper, Prandtl-Reuss's plastic flow rule, combined with finite element deformation theory and updated Lagrangian formulation (ULF) concept, establish an incremental elasto-plastic finite element analysis program for simulating the miniature tube end necking. The forming process also uses the generalized rmin algorithm to deal with elasto-plastic state and contact problems. From the simulation data of necking process, deformation history, punch load and punch stroke, stress and strain distribution is obtained. The analysis results show that by increasing the mold cone angle and friction coefficient, the thickness tends to be thicker in the certain area.

Square Hole

This study is focused on the influences of micro stretching process, miniaturized of micro square hole-flange to stainless steel (SUS304) material, and different thicknesses (0.2, 0.1, 0.05mm) of plate. By undergoing finite element program analysis of material parameter corrected by scale factor, we can discover the differences of different thicknesses of plate during micro stretching forming process. The finite element method in this paper is combined with the plastic flow rule of Dynaform and LS-DYNA solver, finite element deformed theory, and updated Lagrangian formulation to simulate the process of micro square hole-flange. The point of this research is by simulating and analyzing all datum of micro stretching forming process, relation between punch load and stroke, distribution of thickness, distribution of stress and strain, the maximum diameter of flange’s hole and the maximum height of flange. Design three pairs of micro square hole-flange tool undergoing micro stretching experience through SUS304 plate. Compare the experience to the results of the simulation to test the reliability of this analyzing program. Through finite element analysis and the results of the experience, we can discover that the minimum of the thickness, the biggest stress and major strain centralize areas where blank and punch corner meet.

This paper proposes a computation method using the equivalent magnetic circuit to analyze the driving force for the non-contact permanent magnet linear drive system. In this device, the magnetic driving force is related to the rotation angle of driving wheels. The relationship is verified by finite element analysis and measuring experiments. The result of finite element simulation is in good agreement with the model established by the equivalent magnetic circuit. Then experiments of displacement control are carried out to test the dynamic characteristic of this system. The controller of the system adopts the combination control of displacement and angle. The results indicate that the system has good performance in steady-state error and response speed, while the maximum overshoot needs to be reduced.

Abstract A good understanding of the process of adhesion from the mechanics viewpoint and the predictive capability for structural failures associated with adhesively bonded joints require a realistic modeling (both constitutive and kinematic) of the constituent materials. The present investigation deals with the development of an Updated Lagrangian formulation and the associated finite element analysis of adhesively bonded joints. The formulation accounts for the geometric nonlinearity of the adherends and the nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of the adhesive. Sample numerical problems are presented to show the stress and strain distributions in bonded joints.

This paper shows the finite element simulation of a representative specimen from the firewall section in the AEROMARMI ESTELA M1 aircraft. This specimen is manufactured in glass and carbon / epoxy laminates. The specimen is subjected to a load which direction and magnitude are determined by a previous dynamic loads study [10], taking into account the maximum load factor allowed by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) for utilitarian aircrafts [11]. A representative specimen is manufactured with the same features of the firewall. Meanwhile a fix is built in order to introduce the load directions on the representative specimen. The relationship between load and displacement is plotted for this representative specimen, whence the maximum displacement at the specific load is obtained, afterwards it is compared with the finite element model, which is modified in its laminate thicknesses in order to decrease the deviation error; subsequently this features could be applied to perform the whole firewall analysis in a future model [10].

Abstract An inverse finite element (FE) algorithm is proposed for sheet forming process simulation. With the inverse finite element analysis (FEA) program developed, a new method for concurrent engineering (CE) design for sheet metal forming product and process is proposed. After the product geometry is defined by using parametric patches, the input models for process simulation can be created without the necessity to define the initial blank and the geometry of tools, thus simplifying the design process and facilitating the designer to look into the formability and quality of the product being designed at preliminary design stage. With resort to a commercially available software, P3/PATRAN, arbitrarily three-dimensional product can be designed for manufacturability for sheet forming process by following the procedures given.

With the development trend of constant speeding and heavy loading of the railway transportation, the freight train wheels which take the way of touching area breaking are in the bad conditions of strong friction, fever load and big wheel track forces. After many times’ repeated breaking, the wheels will come to be thermal fatigue, then, result in expired puncture. In this article, according to the actual work condition of the freight train wheel, its temperature and stress fields in the process of an urgently breaking when the wheel speed is 120 km/h with the 21 tons shaft weight were analyzed and simulated by Finite Element Method. The relationship between the injury occurring on the touching area of freight wheel and the fields of the temperature and stress was also studied. The research results showed that the maximum values of the temperature and thermal stress lied in the breaking process all locate in the touching friction area between the breaking and the wheel, and the temperature rises continuously with the breaking process going on. When the value of the temperature gets to the crest value, it slowly descends. The wheel temperature reduces from the touching area to the wheel shaft, and the nearer of the distance to wheel shaft, the lower of the temperature and stress values. After the end of the breaking process, the temperature into the wheel is higher than that on the touching area, and the maximum stress exists under the wheel touching area.
