Using rigid-plastic finite element DEFORMTM 2D software, this study simulates the plastic deformation of complex sheets at the roll gap during the sheet rolling process. Specifically, the study addresses the deformation of complex sheets containing inclusion defects. Under various rolling conditions, the present numerical analysis investigates the damage factor distributions, the void length at the front and rear of the inclusion, the deformation mechanisms, and the stress-strain distributions around the inclusion. The relative influences of the thickness reduction, the roll radii, and the friction factors on the void length at the front and rear of the inclusion, respectively, are systematically examined. Additionally, the correlation between the front and rear void lengths and a series of damage factors is explored. The simulation results appear to verify the suitability of the DEFORMTM 2D software for modeling the rolling of complex sheets containing inclusions.

In order to investigate the deformation behavior of a plate during a vertical-horizontal rolling process, a thermo-mechanical coupling analysis is carried out by three-dimensional (3-D) rigid-plastic FEM to simulate the process. The metal flow and the shape evolution of the plate are focused during this investigation. The thickness and the width of the plate agree well with the measured values.

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.

A numerical simulation model for vertical-horizontal rolling process in roughing trains is built according to 3-D rigid-plastic finite element method (FEM), which is validated by comparing the simulation results with measured ones of industrial production. The principle of width deviation appearing on head and tail of slab is investigated by the finite element (FE) simulations. A new polynomial short stroke control (SSC) model is developed based on the comprehensive simulation results and the analyzed results show that, at the aspect of width control, the new SSC model is more effective than the two line one.

In situ nanoindentation was employed to probe the mechanical properties of individual polycrystalline titania (TiO2) microspheres. The force-displacement curves captured by a hybrid scanning electron microscope/scanning probe microscope (SEM/SPM) system were analyzed based on Hertz’s theory of contact mechanics. However, the deformation mechanisms of the nano/microspheres in the nanoindentation tests are not very clear. Finite element simulation was employed to investigate the deformation of spheres at the nanoscale under the pressure of an AFM tip. Then a revised method for the calculation of Young’s modulus of the microspheres was presented based on the deformation mechanisms of the spheres and Hertz’s theory. Meanwhile, a new force-displacement curve was reproduced by finite element simulation with the new calculation, and it was compared with the curve obtained by the nanoindentation experiment. The results of the comparison show that utilization of this revised model produces more accurate results. The calculated results showed that Young’s modulus of a polycrystalline TiO2microsphere was approximately 30% larger than that of the bulk counterpart.

Failure of cement mantle of bond loosening between liner and cement mantle is an important issue in total hip replacement. Two factors that commonly cause cement mantle failure are initial crack and stress. A solution for reducing stress on the cement mantle has been proposed by adding insertion material between liner and cement mantle. Nevertheless, further study is needed to optimize the proposed solution. A possible option is to vary the thickness of the insertion material. If the thickness of the PMMA material is constant, then the variation of the insertion thickness will be followed by the variation of the thickness of the liner. Consequently, the stress value on the liner will follow the variation of liner thickness. The objective of this study is to examine the effect of the thickness variation of the insertion material to stress on cement mantle and liner using finite element simulation. Results revealed that the magnitude of stress and deflection decreased in the cement mantle and the liner along with the increasing thickness of the insertion material.

AbstractAdopting the DEFORM software for the finite element analysis, this study simulated steady-state plastic deformation of the sheet at the roll-gap during asymmetrical sheet rolling. Using FEM code DEFORM, the effects of roll speed ratio, roll radius ratio, friction factor ratio upon the curvature of the rolled product and rolling force were systematically discussed. With a view to verifying the validity of the study simulated, a series of experiments on asymmetrical cold sheet rolling using Aluminum sheet as specimen are carried out. The comparisons between numerical and experimental results show good agreement. Therefore, this numerical model using DEFORM software can offer useful knowledge for designing the pass-schedule of asymmetrical sheet rolling.

To enhancing strength and toughness of metals, severe plastic deformation (SPD) grain refinement was a typical method. As one of the SPD method, equal channel angular pressing is an effective method in fabricating ultra-fine grain metallic materials. In this paper, the rigid-plastic finite element method was used to analyze the aluminum alloy ECAP processing, to reveal the material flow character and its effect on microstructure evolution. The simulation results were agreed with plastic mechanics and experiment well, and it was shown that distribution of maximum principal stress was not uniform, material located at the front-end of sample flow easily and material located at the top of die channel corner flow difficultly.

The monostable acoustic metamaterial is realized by placing a flexible panel with a magnetic proof mass in a symmetric magnetic field. The theoretical model of monostable metamaterials has been proposed. The method of finite element simulation is used to verify the theoretical model. The magnetic force of the symmetrical magnetic field is simplified as the relationship between force and displacement, acting on the mass. The simulation results show that as the external magnetic force increases, the peak sound absorption shifts to low frequencies. The theoretical and finite element simulation results are in good agreement.
