Aluminum alloy profile has been widely used in manufacturing industry for weight reduction. In the bending process of profile, the cross-section distortion is a common defect and also springback always happens in unloading process. In the paper, the bending process of a hollow profile with stiffener was simulated to optimize the forming parameters. Different bending radiuses and inner pressure were chosen in FEM analysis and the suitable radius and calculation equation of pressure for the given profile were obtained. The springback at different bending radiuses were studied to provide the principle of shape compensation.

The creation of acrylic dentures involves many stages. One of them is to prepare the surfaces of artificial teeth for connection with the denture plates. The teeth could be rubbed with a chemical reagent, the surface could be developed, or retention hooks could be created. Preparation of the surface is used to improve the bond between the teeth and the plate. Choosing the right combination affects the length of denture use. This work focuses on a numerical analysis of grooving. The purpose of this article is to select the shape and size of the grooves that would most affect the quality of the bond strength. Two types of grooves in different dimensional configurations were analyzed. The variables were groove depth and width, and the distance between the grooves. Finally, 24 configurations were obtained. Models were analyzed in terms of their angular position to the loading force. Finite element method (FEM) analysis was performed on the 3D geometry created, which consisted of two polymer bodies under the shear process. The smallest values of the stresses and strains were characterized by a sample with parallel grooves with the grooving dimensions width 0.20 mm, thickness 0.10 mm, and distance between the grooves 5.00 mm, placed at an angle of 90°. The best dimensions from the parallel (III) and cross (#) grooves were compared experimentally. Specimens with grooving III were not damaged in the shear test. The research shows that the shape of the groove affects the distribution of stresses and strains. Combining the selected method with an adequately selected chemical reagent can significantly increase the strength of the connection.

A simplified one-step inverse analysis of sheet metal forming is a suitable tool to simulate the bending forming since the deformation path of bending forming is an approximately proportion one. A fast spring-back simulation method based on one-step analysis is proposed. First, the one-step inverse analysis is applied to obtain the stress distribution at the final stage of bending. Then, the unloading to get a spring back is simulated by LS-DYNA implicit solver. These processes are applied to the unconstrained cylindrical bending and the truck member rail. The spring-back and member rail widths at the several key sections are compared with experimental ones. It is well demonstrated that the proposed method is an effective way to predict the spring-back by unloading after bending process.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present numerical modelling results for 3D-printed aluminium components with different variable core infill values. Information published in this paper will guide engineers when designing the components with core infill regions. Design/methodology/approach: During this study 3 different core types (Gyroid, Schwarz P and Schwarz D) and different combinations of their parameters were examined numerically, using FEM by means of the software ANSYS Workbench 2019 R2. Influence of core type as well as its parameters on 3D printed components strength was studied. The “best” core type with the “best” combination of parameters was chosen. Findings: Results obtained from the numerical static compression tests distinctly showed that component strength is highly influenced by the type infill choice selected. Specifically, infill parameters and the coefficient (force reaction/volumetric percentage solid material) were investigated. Resulting total reaction force and percentage of solid material in the component were compared to the fully solid reference model. Research limitations/implications: Based on the Finite Element Analysis carried out in this work, it was found that results highlighted the optimal infill condition defined as the lowest amount of material theoretically used, whilst assuring sufficient mechanical strength. The best results were obtained by Schwarz D core type samples. Practical implications: In the case of the aviation or automotive industry, very high strength of manufactured elements along with a simultaneous reduction of their wight is extremely important. As the viability of additively manufactured parts continues to increase, traditionally manufactured components are continually being replaced with 3D-printed components. The parts produced by additive manufacturing do not have the solid core, they are rather filled with specific geometrical patterns. The reason of such operation is to save the material and, in this way, also weight. Originality/value: The conducted numerical analysis allowed to determine the most favourable parameters for optimal core infill configurations for aluminium 3D printed parts, taking into account the lowest amount of material theoretically used, whilst assuring sufficient mechanical strength.

The unloading spring-back of tubes during its manufacturing process shows a strong nonlinearity, which greatly influences the precision of parts. In this paper, the strain distribution of bending tubes was analyzed based on the elasto-plasticity theory, and the theoretical equation for spring-back of tubes was derived. The numerical simulation model for cold tube-bending process was developed with prediction error of 9% compared with experimental results, indicating high reliability of the model. The 12Cr1MoV and 20G tubes were used to analyze the effects of bending angle, bending radius and bending speed on the spring-back of tubes. The prediction equation of spring-back was built, which shows that the spring-back tendency was in accordance with theoretical analysis results. The simulated results show that the spring-back angle is linearly proportional to the bending angle within a certain range. In addition, it is proportional to the relative bending radius and the bending speed.

Internal voids have to be eliminated for defect-free in some open die forging. The FEM analysis is performed to investigate the overlap defect of cast ingots during cogging stage. The measured flow stress data were used to simulate the cogging process of cast ingot using the practical material properties. Also the numerical analysis of void closure is performed by using the DEFORMTM-3D. The calculated results of void closure behavior are compared with the measured results before and after upsetting, which are scanned by the X-ray scanner. From this result, the criteria for deformation amounts effect on the void closure were estimated into effective strain of 0.6 by the comparison of practical experiment and numerical analysis.

Quasi-static numerical model of jack-up spudcan penetration in layered sandy soil was presented in this paper, based on explicit procedure. Three different methods, such as Lagrangian analysis, Lagrangian analysis with distortion control and Lagrangian-Eulerian analysis, were used to control soil negative element volumes or other excessive distortion. The results showed that, reasonable and stable numerical results could be solved by Lagrangian-Eulerian analysis. The magnitude of plastic strain, however, decreases at first and then increases to the maximum.

In recent years, the requirements for high dimensional precision on Z-bent shaped parts have become increasingly stringent. To attain these requirements, the suitable selection of the Z-die bending type has to be considered much more strictly. In this research, two types of Z-bending processes, offset Z-die bending and wiping Z-die bending, were investigated using the finite element method (FEM) to identify the spring-back characteristics and dimensions of Z-bent shaped parts. In the case of offset Z-die bending, the spring-back characteristics on both bend angles were similar. In contrast, in the case of wiping Z-bending, the spring-back characteristics on both bend angles were different. In addition, the dimensions of the Z-bent shaped parts were investigated. It was found, in the case of wiping Z-bending, that web thinning was generated and the outer bend radius was out of tolerance. To validate the FEM simulation results, experiments were carried out. The FEM simulation results showed good agreement with the experimental results in terms of the bend angles and the overall geometry of the Z-bent shaped parts. To achieve precise Z-bent shaped parts, the suitable selection of Z-die bending type in the Z-die bending process is very important.
