The present work concerns the simulation of metallurgical evolutions in 3D multi-pass forming processes. In this context, the analyzed problem is twofold. One point refers to the management of the microstructure evolution during each pass or each inter-pass period and the other point concerns the management of the multi-pass aspects (different grain categories, data structure). In this framework, a model is developed and deals with both aspects. The model considers the microstructure as a composite made of a given (discretized) number of phases which have their own specific properties. The grain size distribution and the recrystallized volume fraction distribution of the different phases evolve continuously during a pass or inter-pass period. With this approach it is possible to deal with the heterogeneity of the microstructure and its evolution in multi-pass conditions. Both dynamic and static recrystallization phenomena are taken into account, with typical Avrami-type equations. The present model is implemented in the Finite Element code FORGE2005®. 3D numerical simulation results for a multi-pass process are presented.

The influence of electropulsing treatment (EPT) parameters on the static recrystallization (SRX) microstructure in a cold-deformed Ni-based superalloy was investigated. During EPT, both the volume fraction of SRX grains and the average grain size increased with the increasing EPT temperature, which was attributed to the thermal effect and athermal effect induced by EPT. The mobility of SRX grain boundaries was promoted at the higher temperature due to the thermal effect, while the nucleation rate would be increased by EPT through decreasing the thermodynamic barrier. The formation of parallel dislocations caused by electron wind force could also play an indirect role in promoting SRX process. Moreover, the volume fraction of SRX grains increased significantly with the extension of EPT time at 700 °C, while the EPT time had a trivial effect on the average grain size. In addition, the sufficient deformation was essential to the occurrence of SRX behavior during EPT, and the localized Joule heating effect could promote the SRX behavior in the samples with the larger strains. Besides that, the influence of twining and carbides on the SRX behaviors was also investigated.

Although the reinforcement for openings is checked in accordance with design / construction standard when thinning was observed in T-pipes, this evaluation becomes too conservative or requires much time and effort. This paper describes additional parametric study results and proposes a guideline for thickness management of wall thinning T-pipes. On the other papers related to this project, the experiment and numerical simulation results are reported. This paper referred these results and performed further investigation.

In this paper, an extendedMaxwell-Hellawell numerical grain size prediction model is employed to predictas-cast grain size of inoculated aluminum alloys. Given melt composition,inoculation and cooling conditions, the model is able to predict maximumnucleation undercooling, cooling curve and final as-cast grain size of multi-componentalloys. The proposed model has been applied to various binary andmulticomponent alloys. Upon analyzing the numerical simulation results, it isfound that for both binary and multi-component alloys, grain size does not havea one-to-one relation with Growth Restriction Factor, Q, but has a clear ubiquitous correlation with the average diffusivity-weightedQ, defined as W in this paper. This founding helps solve the controversy seen inthe recent work on analytical grain size and Q relations. It also has been used to interpret the scatters seenin the measured grain sizes as a function of Q values reported in the literature.

Abstract To clarify the densification law of dry pressed MgTiO3 ceramic body during pressureless sintering, SOVS model modified with creep characteristics was embedded into finite element software Abaqus. The selected model can effectively express the grain boundary characteristics and densification mechanism. The change law of relative density, shrinkage rate, sintering stress and grain size of MgTiO3 cylindrical specimens were investigated by the above numerical simulation method. It showed that the average relative density of ceramic body rose from 60% to 97% and the shrinkage rate resepectively reached 17.28% and 11.99% in axial and radial direction. The average grain size increased from 1μm to 6 μm. In order to verify the accuracy of the simulation results, corresponding sintering experiments on cylindrical specimens were carried out to obtain actual sintering densities and shrinkage rates. It showed that the errors of relative density and shrinkage is below 5% and 2%. Grain growth trend was also basically consistent with the simulation results. After that, the above numerical simulation method was applied into the prediction of fabricating MgTiO3 filter with complex structure. Therefore, the present work provided a reliable numerical simulation method to predict the densification behavior of MgTiO3 ceramics during the pressureless sintering process, which was helpful to design and fabricate microwave dielectric products.

This study was conducted to investigate effects of surface roughness on self-excited cavitating water jet intensity in an organ-pipe nozzle. Roughness average (Ra) values are 0.8, 1.6, 3.2, 6.3, 12.5, and 25 [Formula: see text]m, respectively. Numerical simulation results indicate that at inlet pressure of 10 MPa, the maximum, minimum, and real-time pressures in the self-excited oscillation chamber reach their respective peak values. The turbulent kinetic energy intensity in the external flow region is also most intense at this point, the vapor volume fraction in orifice is the highest, the vortex distribution scope in the orifice is the largest under [Formula: see text], and the self-excited cavitating water jet intensity is the strongest. The opposite variations emerge at [Formula: see text] compared to those of [Formula: see text], where the intensity is weakest. Pressure varies only slightly as Ra varies from 0.8 [Formula: see text]m to 6.3 [Formula: see text]m. Turbulent kinetic energy intensity behaves similarly as Ra increases from 0.8 [Formula: see text]m to 3.2 [Formula: see text]m. At [Formula: see text], it was weaker than at Ra = 0.8–3.2 [Formula: see text]m. Similarly, there are only slight differences in vapor volume fraction and vortex distribution scope with Ra from 0.8 [Formula: see text]m to 6.3 [Formula: see text]m. The intensities at Ra = 0.8–3.2 [Formula: see text]m are similar, and weaker at Ra = 6.3 [Formula: see text]m. Pressure values are maximal at inlet pressure of 20 MPa, turbulent kinetic energy intensity is most intense, vapor volume fraction is highest, vortex distribution scope is largest under [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]m, and intensity is strongest. Distinctions among pressure, turbulent kinetic energy intensity, vapor volume fraction, and vortex distribution scope values with Ra from 0.8 [Formula: see text]m to 3.2 [Formula: see text]m are slight. Differences in the corresponding intensities are also slight; all decrease with Ra from 12.5 [Formula: see text]m to 25 [Formula: see text]m as the intensity gradually weakens. Numerical simulation results were validated by comparison against corresponding experimental phenomena.

Aircraft Ditching is related primarily with the aviation safety. Firstly, the full-scaled shape of Boeing 777-200 is modeled according to the lost MH370 aircraft on 8th March. And then an Arbitrary Lagrange-Euler (ALE) fluid-field model is created for water and air domain. Next some simulation cases are implemented related to different vertical velocities using LS-DYNA nonlinear finite-element code, with the same horizontal velocity and attack angle. At the same time, the variations of the velocity of the head and tail are discussed. Consequently, Ditching overload peak occurs at the highest vertical velocity. The simulation results can deeply be applied to accident analysis of aircraft impacting on water.

Simulation Results

Based on the 3D plane impact and 2D MCA numerical simulation, the 3D ANSYS/LS-DYNA software is applied to conduct numerical simulations on two kinds of impact breaking process of a glass ball, during which spallation phenomenon occur. The Von Misses stress of each node changes with the time as the result of the stress waves spreading, reflecting and overlapping within the material. The stereograms and profiles from the simulation results reveal that the stress of each node changes with the time. By comparing the simulation results of plane impact and 2D point impact, differences and similarities between these processes are illustrated in this paper, which reflects the complexity of mechanics in the processes.
