Parametric Finite Element Analysis

In engineering technology, it is necessary to compare different designs in an optimization project. Therefore a big problem is how to obtain finite element analysis (FEA) data involving different parameters and how to acquire optimization parameters from the results of FEA to solve the optimization problem rapidly. The parametric mesh (Paramesh) method, automatically based on history of complicated special surfaces, is developed to obtain many results of FEA involving different parameters. This paper is presented to demonstrate the method of parametric finite element analysis (PFEA). The optimization method of process parameters optimization is based on combining PFEA/ ANN (artificial nerve net)/GA (genetic arithmetic) to find out optimization parameters. This allows one to rapidly obtain optimization parameters during a design by doing FEA only once. The research indicates that the parameters optimization method based on PFEA/ANN/GA in the product design can short the product development cycle, decrease material consumption and guarantee product quality, etc.

Ultrasonic Consolidation

A 3-D coupled temperature-displacement finite element analysis is performed to study an ultrasonic consolidation process. Results show that ultrasonic wave is effective in causing deformation in aluminum foils. Ultrasonic vibration leads to an oscillating stress field. The oscillation of stress in substrate lags behind the ultrasonic vibration by about 0.1 cycle of ultrasonic wave. The upper foil, which is in contact with the substrate, has the most severe deformation. The substrate undergoes little deformation. Apparent material softening by ultrasonic wave, which is of great concern for decades, is successfully simulated. The higher the friction coefficient, the more obvious the apparent material softening effect.

Incremental Sheet Metal Forming

Driven by an increasing demand from the aerospace industry, thin sheet forming of titanium and its alloys is gaining prominence in scientific research. The design and manufacture of aerospace components requires the utmost precision and accuracy. It is essential to have good control over the process parameters of the forming process. Processes such as incremental sheet metal forming (ISMF) are highly controlled in the current manufacturing environment, but improvements in geometric accuracy and thinning are still needed. Although ISMF has greater process competence for manufacturing airframe structures with minimal costs, the process has its own negative effect on geometric accuracy due to elastic springback and sheet thinning. In this study, finite element analysis and experimental work are performed, considering process parameters such as spindle speed, feed rate, step depth, and tool diameter, to study the geometric accuracy and thinning of Ti–6Al–4V alloy sheet, while incrementally forming an aerospace component with asymmetrical geometry. The results are useful for understanding the geometric accuracy and thinning effects on parts manufactured by single point incremental forming (SPIF). Results from finite element analysis and experimental work are compared and found to be in good agreement.

Critical Process

Ultrasonic welding is a solid-state joining process which uses ultrasonic vibration to join materials at relatively low temperatures. Ultrasonic powder consolidation is a derivative of the ultrasonic additive process which consolidates powder material into a dense solid block without melting. During ultrasonic powder consolidation process, metal powder under a compressive load is subjected to transverse ultrasonic vibrations resulting in a fully-dense consolidated product. While ultrasonic powder consolidation is employed in a wide variety of applications, the effect of critical process parameters on the bonding process of powder particles during consolidation is not clearly understood. This study uses a coupled thermo-mechanical finite element analysis technique to investigate the effect of critical process parameters including vibrational amplitude and base temperature on the stress, strain, and particle temperature distribution during the ultrasonic powder consolidation process. The study finds that during this process, the ultrasonically vibrating tool imparts cyclic vibratory shear stress on the particles. The simulation also revealed that the particle temperature just reaches the recrystallization point. Higher vibration amplitude imparted higher frictional heat on the particles, thereby aiding the consolidation process. The simulation study also showed indications of thermal softening and restricted grain boundary sliding during the ultrasonic powder consolidation process. The outcomes of this study can be used to further the industrial applications of ultrasonic powder consolidation process as well as other ultrasonic welding based processes.
