Abstract The paper presents example results of numerical and photogrammetric analysis leading to identify the causes of cracking and wrinkling during bathtub W1200 production. The verification of tools for the stamping of bathtub W1200 was performed using finite element method and photogrammetric system ATOS Triple Scan. A series of industrial tests was conducted to identify the model parameters. The major and minor strain distributions obtained from the finite element simulations were used in conjunction with the forming limit diagram to predict the onset of fracture. In addition, the effects of blank holder pressure and friction on the occurrence of fracture and wrinkling were investigated.

A hybrid friction model was recently developed by Azizian and Mureithi (2013) to simulate the friction behavior of tube-support interaction. However, identification and validation of the model parameters remains unresolved. In previous work, the friction model parameters were identified using the reverse harmonic method, where the following quantities were indirectly obtained by measuring the vibration response of a beam: friction force, sliding speed of the force of impact, and local displacement at the contact point. In the present work, the numerical simulation by the finite element method (FEM) of a beam clamped at one end and simply supported with the consideration of friction effect at the other is conducted. This beam is used to validate the inverse harmonic balance method and the parameters of the friction models identified previously. Two static friction models (the Coulomb model and Stribeck model) are tested. The two models produce friction forces of the correct order of magnitude compared to the friction force calculated using the inverse harmonic balance method. However, the models cannot accurately reproduce the beam response; the Stribeck friction model is shown to give the response closest to experiments. The results demonstrate some of the challenges associated with accurate friction model parameter identification using the inverse harmonic balance method. The present work is an intermediate step toward identification of the hybrid friction model parameters and, longer-term, improved analysis of tube-support dynamic behavior under the influence of friction.

An understanding of flow behavior of polymer melts through a slit die is extremely important for optimizing die design. In this paper numerical simulations have been undertaken for the flow of linear low-density polyethylene through Coat-hanger sheet dies. A new finite element method is proposed to simulate the flow in slit channel using Wagner constitutive model. This is one kind of finite element semi-analytical method by which the velocity distributions in thickness direction is approach by Fourier series. Numerical results of volumetric flow and pressure in coat-hanger dies are given to compare to the three-dimensional simulation using the finite element method. It appears that numerical solutions are as accurate as the complete 3D calculations and the computing time can be saved.

Roll forging process for automobile front axle has been simulated by using a rigid viscoplastic finite element method, force-time curve have been obtained and analyzed. On the basis of simulation result, typical characteristics of roll forging process have been explained. It concluded that simulation results could guide the development of roll forging and die design for automobile front axle.
