Dynamic Analyses

Thin structures are commonly designed and employed in engineering industries to save material, reduce weight and improve the overall performance of products. The finite element (FE) simulation of such thin structural components has become a powerful and useful tool in this field. For the last few decades, much attention and effort have been paid to establish accurate and efficient FE. In this regard, the solid–shell concept proved to be very attractive due to its multiple advantages. Several treatments are additionally applied to the formulation of solid–shell elements to avoid all locking phenomena and to guarantee the accuracy and efficiency during the simulation of thin structures. The current contribution presents a family of prismatic and hexahedral assumed-strain based solid–shell elements, in which an arbitrary number of integration points are distributed along the thickness direction. Both linear and quadratic formulations of the solid–shell family elements are implemented into ABAQUS static/implicit and dynamic/explicit software to model thin 3D problems with only a single layer through the thickness. Two popular benchmark tests are first conducted, in both static and dynamic analyses, for validation purposes. Then, attention is focused on a complex sheet metal forming process involving large strain, plasticity and contact.

Rigid Plastic

A rigid plastic finite element model for analysing two-dimensional plane strain sheet metal forming processes is described. The model is based on the large strain formulation using membrane theory, and the material is assumed to be rigid plastic, work hardening and conforms to Hill's anisotropic yield criterion and associated flow rules. The theoretical development follows the work of Kobayashi and Kim on the axisymmetric modelling of sheet metal forming. An application of the model for plane strain cylindrical punch stretching is presented. The results obtained are compared with those provided through an analytical membrane solution described in this work. The agreement found between both solutions is excellent.
