In recent years, the style of 3C products demanded thin and small results due to gradual trends, though most of the industry is forming a continuous manner of stamping. However, the material thickness cannot be changed in products. This paper employs the rigid-plastic finite element (FE) DEFORMTM 3D software to investigate the plastic deformation behavior of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) workpiece for the forming processes of cellphone covers. In addition, this study utilizes the Solid Work 2010 3D graphics-rendering software for modeling, which is simulation software used to import various forming process conditions. The software analyzes the effective strain, the effective stress, critical damage value, and the die radius load distribution of the work-piece. Furthermore, this study used simulative software to analyze its forming processes for changes in grain size of the microstructure. The analytical results confirm the suitability of the current finite element software for forming processes of cellphone covers.

Based on the rigid-plastic deformation finite element method and the heat transfer theories, the forming process of cross wedge rolling was simulated with the finite element software DEFORM-3D. The temperature field of the rolled piece during the forming process was analyzed. The results show that the temperature gradient in the outer of the work-piece is sometimes very large and temperature near the contact deformation zone is the lowest while temperature near the center of the rolled-piece keeps relatively stable and even rises slightly. Research results provide a basis for further study on metal flow and accurate shaping of work-piece during cross wedge rolling.

Vibration Serviceability

In recent years, the problem of the human-induced bridge vibration has attracted more and more concerns. In this paper , a steel structure footbridge named Shuang'an East in Beijing was taken as the example to collect the whole bridge vibration data and build the finite element model with the finite element software. In addition, this research changes the limitation of considering the pedestrian load as a whole with a traffic flow simulation software, which is based on social force model, applying to reflect the pedestrians' locations during walking. Comparing the simulation data with the the measured data, the vibration serviceability of footbridge will decrease with the increasing of the number of the pedestrians. The analysis results will provide reference for the dynamic characteristic of similar structures.

Simulation Results

To improve the effect of multi-point stretch forming of sheet metal, it is proposed in this paper to replace a fixed ball head with a swinging ball head. According to the multi-point dies with different arrangements, this research establishes finite element models of the following stretch forming, i.e., fixed ball heads with conventional arrangement, swinging ball heads with conventional arrangement, swinging ball heads with declining staggered arrangement, and swinging ball heads with parallel staggered arrangement, and then numerical simulation is performed. The simulation results show that by replacing a fixed ball head with a swinging ball head, the surface indentation of the part formed was effectively suppressed, the stress and tension strain distribution of the part formed was improved, and the forming quality was improved; the thickness of the elastic pad was reduced, the springback was reduced and the forming accuracy was improved; and when the ball head was applied to a multi-point die with staggered arrangement, a better forming result was achieved, where the best forming result was achieved in combining the swinging ball heads with the multi-point die with a parallel staggered arrangement. Forming experiments were carried out, and the experimental results were consistent with the trend of numerical simulation results, which verified the correctness of the numerical simulation.

Material Utilization

The ongoing miniaturization trend in combination with increasing production and functional volume leads to a rising demand for metallic microparts. Bulk forming of microparts from sheet metal provides the potential for mass production of those components by an extensive simplification of the handling. The advantage of a high production rate contrasts with the disadvantage of a low utilization of material. In this context, it is necessary to investigate suitable measures to increase the material utilization. To save cost intensive trial and error tests, numerical analysis could be an appropriate method for a basic process investigation. In this work, a validation with experimental results in the macro- and microscale was used to investigate the eligibility of the finite element method (FEM) for a basic process analysis. For a high transferability, the finite element (FE) models were validated for various tribological conditions and material states. The results reveal that there is a high agreement of the experimental and numerical results in the macroscale. In microscale, conventional FEM shows inaccuracies due to the negligence of size effects in the discretization of the process. This fact limits the application of conventional FE-programs. Furthermore, the results show that lubricated and dry formed blanks lead to the same friction force and process result in the microscale. In addition, the basic formability of the prestrengthened pins in further forming stages was experimentally demonstrated.

In this paper the drawing process of Box-torque was simulated by Dynaform, which is FEM simulation software. The process parameters, which affected the quality of forming, were optimized by finite element simulation. The emphasis was focus on the optimization of draw-bead and BHF and data were summarized from the optimization graphs. In this simulation, lengthways draw-bead was set on the technical face for reducing or eliminating wrinkle. It was innovation difference from the usual that the draw-bead was set on binder. Finally the correctness of simulation was approved by comparing the optimization of simulation with the data of experimentation.
