Equivalent Strain Rate

Based on the theory of adiabatic shearing, the forming process of a serrated chip during cutting Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy was analyzed by comparing the results of the finite element (FE) calculations with the cutting experiments. The results show that the equivalent stress, equivalent strain and equivalent strain rate within a ribbon chip varied a little, but they varied a lot within a serrated chip. Moreover, the effect of cutting speed on equivalent strain rate is greater than on the equivalent stress and equivalent strain within a serrated chip. It can also be found from the results that there are small gaps between the simulation results and experimental results for the chip thickness and sawtooth height, while there is a big gap for saw-tooth pitch. This means that the simulation model has its limitations for accurate simulation of micro-geometric shape of a chip during cutting the Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy, and further research remains to be done.

Much progress has achieved in forging technology, and it has become a popular process for preparation of intricate parts. As a case, a finite element model of the square block forging process was established by DEFORM software. The deformation, distribution and development trend of velocity, mean stress, equivalent strain and equivalent strain rate were predicted. The load-time variation curves in X, Y and Z direction were obtained too. Based on the numerical simulation result, we had a better understanding of the forging process.

Failure Properties

A finite element model of knee human ligaments was developed and validated to predict the injury potential of occupants in high speed frontal automotive collisions. Dynamic failure properties of ligaments were modeled to facilitate the development of more realistic dynamic representation of the human lower extremities when subjected to a high strain rate. Uniaxial impulsive impact loads were applied to porcine medial collateral ligament-bone complex with strain rates up to145 s−1. From test results, the failure load was found to depend on ligament geometric parameters and on the strain rate applied. The information obtained was then integrated into a finite element model of the knee ligaments with the potential to be used also for representation of ligaments in other regions of the human body. The model was then validated against knee ligament dynamic tolerance tests found in literature. Results obtained from finite element simulations during the validation process agreed with the outcomes reported by literature findings encouraging the use of this ligament model as a powerful and innovative tool to estimate ligament human response in high speed frontal automotive collisions.

Drawing process is an important technology in shaping products. In the paper, the geometric surfaces of tools and sheet were modeled by Pro/E software, and a 3D finite element model of the cylindrical drawing process was developed by DYNAFORM. Numerical simulation results showed the distribution of stress, strain and thickness. FLD showed no material was in crack area and risk crack area. The drawing process could be successfully completed in one stroke. The simulation results were helpful for the die design.

The Finite Element Analysis

Strain clamp is an important connection device in guy tower. If the quality of the compression splicing position is unsatisfied, strain clamp tends to be damaged which may lead to the final collapse of a guy tower as well as huge economic lost. In this paper, stress distribution on the compressible tube and guy cable is analyzed by FEM, and a large equivalent stress of guy cable is applied to the compression splicing position. During this process, a finite element model of strain clamp is established for guy cables at compression splicing position, problems of elastic-plastic and contracting are studied and the whole compressing process of compressible position is simulated. The guy cable cracks easily at the position of compressible tube’s port, the inner part of the compressible tube has a larger equivalent stress than outside.
