Due to the complexity of H-beam’s cross section, it is difficult to calculate the rolling force and force torque accurately using classic formulas conveniently when H-beams of new size are developed. This paper describes an investigation into the reversing process of H-beam using MARC software and compares the results with rolling data from the production line. A FEM model involving in three-dimensional, elastic-plastic and thermo-mechanical coupling has been established successfully to predict multi-pass rolling process. The analysis produces outputs such as deformation rules, rolling force and the web thickening. The influence of rolling reduction, the reduction rate between the web and flange are also discussed. The indications are that there is much difference between the measurement of rolling force and the rolling force calculated by using classic formulas. The reason is that real reduction during rolling process is much more than the scheduled one. A new revised method was suggested to calculate the rolling force. The simulation results show that this new method for calculating rolling force is feasible.

Cutting stress coupled with clamping stress and initial stress affects the workpiece deformation. To predicate the workpiece deformation during machining, the multi-stress coupled model was developed. The finite element model of milling process is established and the milling forces were predicted. The predicated milling force, clamping force and initial stress were taken as initial conditions and were inputted into the multi-stress coupled model. Workpiece deformation during machining and reaction forces of locators were predicated. To maintain workpiece in a stable condition during machining, reaction forces of the locators when the cutting tool moving along the clamp side must be monitored.

In order to research the forming process of H-beam, based on the large H-beam production line of HN600x200, the Standard and Explicit solver of ABAQUS are synthetically used to establish finite element model for rolling process and inter-pass thermolysis process. The reciprocation multi-pass rolling process simulation procedure based on the re-meshing technology is used to simulate the whole production process form blanks to finish products, and the continuity of data is ensured. Based on the simulation results, the deformation and rolling force of the roller as well as the metal flowing law and temperature field of workpiece are discussed emphatically. The results clearly show that the displacement of roller contains the elastic deformation and the deflection, and the counterforce of left adds to the counterforce of right is about equal to the resultant force. The simulation results are compared with the measuring results, which proves the correctness of simulation.

In order to get high quality forgings, it is significant to predict the microstructure evolution during hot forging process accurately. In this study, a simulation model is built by combining FEM with the dynamic recrystallization model of 42CrMo, and the finite element model is proved to be reliable by a serial of upsetting deformation experiment. Then the distributions of microstructure evolution are obtained on upsetting process. Upsetting is beneficial to refine the grain size and drawing can make the distribution of grain size homogeneous. By comparing the simulation results with experiments, the distributions of microstructure are a close match in the middle part of steering arm. The forgings formed by this process have a good microstructure and have high comprehensive mechanical properties.

In hot extrusion of Al-profiles, the billet-container boundary is characterized by the sticking condition. The outer surface layer of the billet is stuck to the container wall. At the back-end of the billet, the metal flow is complicated. The surface material, which is initially stuck to the wall, will be scraped away by the pad and flow inward into the billet. This kind of inward flow of surface material is usually undesirable and it is important to control such flow so that no surface material should be found in extruded profiles. In order to study this phenomenon, a model is proposed for the metal flow at the back-end, in which the rigid-plastic FEM is used. A computer program FEMBA has been developed based on the model. The simulation results are in qualitatively good agreement with experiments.

In this paper, we present the results of the temperature measurements performed on topology optimized polysilicon microgrippers using Raman spectroscopy. The results reveal that the temperature profile along the actuators is in correspondence with the finite element simulation results presented in [1] except an offset of ∼250 °C due to chip heating. In order to predict this behavior, we included a section of the carrier chip into the finite element model. We also fabricated new devices with wider electrodes to reduce the overall Joule heating. Both finite element simulations and experimental results show that the devices with a wider electrodes design lead to a temperature drop of ∼50 °C as compared to the devices with the previous electrode design.
