A computational technique of rigid-plastic finite element method by using the Eulerian meshing method was developed to deal with large deformation problem in metal forming by replacing the conventional way of applying complicated remeshing schemes when using the Lagrange’s elements. During metal forming process, a workpiece normally undergoes large deformation and causes severe distortion of elements in finite element analysis. The distorted element may lead to instability in numerical calculation and divergence of non-linear solution in finite element analysis. With Eulerian elements, the initial elements are generated to fix into a specified analytical region with particles implanted as markers to form the body of a workpiece. The particles are allowed to flow between the elements after each deformation step to show the deforming pattern of material. Four types of cold forging and sheet metal clinching were conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the presented method. The proposed method is found to be effective by comparing the results on dimension of the final product, material flow behaviour and punch load versus stroke obtained from simulation and experiment.

Microwire made using a straightening process has high added value and has been adopted in many fields of industry. There is much active research on the straightening process. Very straight microwire can be obtained by removing the residual stress induced during the manufacturing process. Generally, the residual stress is removed or minimized through several drawing steps with heat treatment. This study used finite element analysis to calculate the residual stress during each straightening process and investigated the main reason for a change in stress.

In metal forming, there are problems with recurrent geometric characteristics without explicitly prescribed boundary conditions. In such problems, so-called recurrent boundary conditions must be introduced. In this paper, as a practical application of the proposed method, the precision cold forging of a helical gear (which is industrially useful and geometrically complicated) has been simulated by a three-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method and compared with the experiment. The application of recurrent boundary conditions to helical gear forging analysis is proved to be effective and valid. The three-dimensional deformed pattern by the finite element analysis is shown, and the forging load is compared with the experimental load. The profiles of the free surface of the workpiece show good agreement between the computation and the experiment.
