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.

The Finite Element Analysis

Fibrous composites are finding more and more applications in aerospace, automotive, and naval industries. They have high stiffness and strength to weight ratio and good rating in regards to life time fatigue. Investigating mechanical behavior under dynamic loads to replace this material is very important. In the present article, investigate Fatigue of Unidirectional Fibrous Composites by using finite element analysis. So, to achieve this purpose Firstly, modeling fiber and matrix in separate case and simulated semi actual conditions, attained S-N curve of fiber and matrix and after that by using micromechanical model of combination fiber and matrix can approach S-N curve of Unidirectional Fibrous Composites. Finally, Comparisons of the finite element analysis of Ansys and the experimental predictions indicate based on three point bending fatigue testing that the results are satisfactorily in good agreement with each other which approves the power law assumption in the model.

Wrinkle Generation

The purpose of this research is to determine the state inside the material using finite-element analysis and to improve the performance of a rotary-draw bending forming by clarifying the mechanism of wrinkle generation. An analytical model of rotational drawing was made by using the general-purpose nonlinear finite-element analysis software MSC Marc, and the analytical results were compared with experimental results to verify the validity of the model. Furthermore, the mechanism of wrinkle generation was investigated. With the progress of processing, wrinkles occur not in the R part but in the original tube-side straight-tube part. The coefficient of friction between the tube material and the R portion of the bending mold promotes the occurrence of wrinkles and the growth of the generated wrinkles. Because wrinkles occur even if the friction coefficient between the tube material and bending mold R part is ignored, the generation condition of wrinkles also depends on parameters other than the friction coefficient.

Sheet metal deep-draw die is primarily constructed with draw bead, which is then modified based on trial and error to obtain a successful forming without splitting. This work aims at a robust design of forming die using numerical analysis and the Taguchi method. A three dimensional elastoplastic finite element model of a sheet metal forming process of SPCEN steel has been successfully developed using the material flow stress obtained from the modified Erichsen cup test. The model was validated with the actual forming experiment and the results agreed well. The influence of draw bead parameters on splitting and thinning distributions were examined using the Taguchi method. Four parameters, namely the friction coefficient, draw bead height, radius and shoulder radius were investigated. The Taguchi main effect analysis and ANOVA results show that the height and shoulder radius of the draw bead are the most important factor influencing the thinning distribution. Applying the Taguchi method and using the minimum thinning percentage as the design criteria, the optimum die design was identified as height, radius, shoulder radius and the friction coefficient of 4, 8, 8 mm and 0.125 respectively. The verified finite element model using the optimum die design was conducted. The predicted Taguchi response was within 5.9% from finite element analysis prediction. The improvement in the reduction of thinning percentage was 22.35%.

AbstractThe molecular chains of a highly oriented polymer lie in the same direction. A highly oriented polymer is an engineering material with a high strength-to-weight ratio and favorable mechanical properties. Such an orthotropic material has biaxially arranged molecular chains that resist stress in the tensile direction, giving it a high commercial value. In this investigation, finite element analysis (FEA) was utilized to elucidate the deformation and failure of a highly oriented polymer. Based on the principles of material mechanics and using the FEA software, Abaqus, a solid model of an I-beam was constructed, and the lengths of this beam were set based on their heights. Three-point bending tests were performed to simulate the properties of the orthotropic highly oriented polymer, yielding results that reveal both tension failure and shear failure. The aspect ratio that most favored the manufacture of an I-beam from highly oriented polymers was obtained; based on this ratio, a die drawing mold can be developed in the future.

Good Agreement

To eliminate the complexity of curvature extrusion process, a new extrusion method was proposed. In this study, a finite element analysis for curvature extrusion was studied to commercialize this extrusion method that creates curvature in a tilting method. When simulating an extrusion process, it is important to fix the appropriate friction coefficient and fillet value to avoid peel-out problems such that the finite element disappears. Therefore, the actual extrusion results and the simulated results were compared to find conditions that the element would not disappear. There was a good agreement between the simulation and experimental results when the coefficient friction was 0.4 and the fillet was 0.4 mm.

Mixed Friction

Mixed friction acting in a rolling contact increases the v. Mises equivalent stress and shifts the maximum towards the surface. Tangential stresses are superimposed to the stress distribution. The resulting position of the maximum v. Mises stress depends on the magnitude of the friction coefficient and is located directly on the surface from values of about 0.25 upwards. The impact of three-dimensional machine vibrations on rolling bearings in operation can cause severe mixed friction running conditions. Residual stress distributions measured on indentation-free raceways indicate high friction coefficients of up to greater than 0.25. The surfaces reveal smoothing of the finishing structure but no adhesive wear. The simulation of the vibrationally loaded rolling-sliding contact is based on the tribological model of localized friction coefficient. This approach avoids seizing by allowing for increased friction only in intermittently changing subareas of the contact at low sliding speed. The macroscopic friction coefficient, meeting a mixing rule, does not exceed 0.1. The finite element method (FEM) is used for the stress analysis. In the first step, a simplified FEM model involves a circumferentially oriented band of high friction coefficient from 0.2 to 0.5 within a cylindrical roller contact. The resulting depth distributions of the v. Mises equivalent stress during overrolling and the corresponding residual stresses are evaluated below the inner ring raceway of the bearing. The features of the FEM model are discussed in detail. The increased sliding friction in the band shifts the maximum of the v. Mises equivalent stress to the surface. Compressive residual stresses are induced in the edge zone. Depending on the applied Hertzian pressure, an additional subsurface peak occurs. First results of the finite element analysis are presented.
