The finite element numerical simulation method was used to study the stretch-bending process of asymmetric L-section aluminum alloy profiles. The geometrical parameters of the multipoint dies (MPDs) are studied to influence the shape accuracy and springback of the L-section profile after bending. The results show that the profile curvature of the MPD after the profile is bent has a great influence on the stress-strain distribution, springback value, and shape accuracy. In order to obtain uniform stress-strain of the profile and reduce the springback and shape error, the MPD is optimized by numerical simulation analysis, which has a certain reference value of providing a theoretical basis for the rational design of the flexible stretch-bending.

Aiming at the flexible 3D stretch bending with multipoint dies for the aluminum profile, the numerical simulation analysis of the bending process was carried out by ABAQUS finite element software. In the multipoint stretch bending (MPSB) process, the influence of the number of die units on the springback for the complex section profile was studied. The shape error between the forming parts and the target parts was reduced through the method of die surface modification. The results showed that the springback of the aluminum profile could reach a minimum when the number of die units was 25 under the precondition of saving cost and ensuring the quality of forming parts. In the numerical simulation, the maximum shape error of the forming parts reduced from 18.824 mm to 2.456 mm; in the test, the maximum shape error reduced from 27.26 mm to 6.03 mm through the method of die surface modification.

In the flexible stretch bending of multi-point roller dies process, the deformation of workpiece is mainly driven by clamps. Therefore, the movement track of clamp has a great influence on the forming effect of workpiece. Y-profile, T-profile, and L-profile are taken as the research objects. Simulation and experiments are carried out with two different movement tracks. The influence of the movement tracks on shape error, springback error, and thickness variation of different profiles is discussed. The experimental results of the three profiles processed by the double-sided forming method are consistent with the simulation results, which proves the accuracy of the numerical simulation. The results show that the movement track has a great influence on shape error. Compared with double-sided forming, one-sided forming can effectively reduce springback error. The two different movement tracks have no obvious influence on thickness change.

The coupling beam work as an important component in coupled shear walls, the strength,stiffness and deformation properties of which have great influence on the seismic performance of shear walls, the steel plate reinforced concrete coupling beams have the advantages as follows: simplify the constructional details, make the construction convenient and reliable performance [1][2]. The numerical simulation model in this paper is a coupled shear wall connected by steel plate reinforced concrete coupling beams in reference [3], and the loading mode is the same as the reference [4] . The relative stiffness effect was explored by study the internal force and displacement of the model with changing the stiffness of the coupling beams and the shear walls while the span-depth ratio is stable .The study will provide a reference for the numerical simulation of the finite element simulation analysis of the coupling beams and the steel reinforced concrete structures.

Starting with damage identification index method on the basis of the curvature mode, the first-order curvature mode ratio is proposed, and then it is made a numerical simulation analysis for a single span simple beam bridge with ANSYS. The identification of structure damage degree under the damage on the single position is studied. The fitted polynomial based on the derivation of the first-order curvature mode ratio can estimate the damage degree; it has a good reference value for the damage detection of structures in practical engineering.

Parachute recovery of UAV is often caused of holes and other injuries on wings, that are required repair and maintenance. The surface of the patch will form the high stress area, that affects UAV using life and safety .But repair method is good or bad directly affects size of the high stress area. Based on finite element method, the broken hole repairing method was formulated and validated by ANSYS. The method could minimize the high stress area as far as possible, and economically repair broken hole of wing in certain precision and safety standards condition. It has a certain reference value for UAV repair and management, and has reference significance for extending the service life of the UAV.

In this paper, based on the engineering vehicle’s side plate cold roll forming machine developed by a company, we use 3D solid modeling software Solid Works to complete the establishment of a 3D model. On the basis of explicit dynamics elastoplastic finite element method basic theory, we make numerical simulation analysis of the metal plate’s forming process by using ANSYS/LS-DYNA module. According to the simulation results, we make repeated adjustment and optimization on its pass system and parameters. Through the numerical simulation of the forming process, we conclude the stress-strain distribution of the sheet metal. For similar products, the result has a certain reference value to the research of cold roll forming process and the design of cold roll forming equipments.

In order to predict defects of a complex casting that may arise during the die casting, The numerical analysis technique of Fluent' s VOF was used to establish the filling model. Based on the case of the wheel, it is expounded that the numerical simulation of VOF was utilized in application of casting. The five groups of simulation analysis were performed under the different pouring pressure. At last the pouring pressure has a great influence on the state of filling and the filling times are little difference. The research on pouring pressure and flow field during the casting process of wheels was conducted. The results of the study show that, when the pouring pressure is about 60000 KPa, the cavity is completely filled with the molten aluminum alloy.

To comply with the uniform-strength theory, almost all large tanks are made by welding unequal-thickness cylindrical shell courses together. This structure can be considered as a kind of geometry imperfection of tank walls, which has a great influence on buckling behavior and critical load of tank walls. To obtain the related critical buckling load and to verify the effect regularity on bulking due to hoop stress in various combined unequal-thickness cylindrical shells, the numerical simulation was adopted to analyze the buckling behavior with different loads. The results show that the characteristic factors of unequal-thickness structure can reduce the critical buckling load significantly, such factors as shell layers and the difference in thickness of adjacent shell courses are the most dominant.
