The die design for this process was numerically and experimentally studied. After finding a good correlation between the numerical and experimental results, more comprehensive FE analyses were carried out. Different die geometrical parameters were considered and their effects on the induced plastic strain, stress distribution, velocity field and forming load of the process were investigated. It was found that by this process with a suitable set of die geometrical parameters, higher induced effective strain and more homogeneous strain distribution could be achieved in comparison with ECLE operation.展开更多

In order to incorporate the effect of the moving surface of the structure as well as the free surface motion, the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation is employed as the basis of the finite element spatial discretization. For numerical integration in time, the fraction,step method is used. This method is useful because one can use the same linear interpolation function for both velocity and pressure. The method is applied to the nonlinear interaction of a structure and a tuned liquid damper. All computations are performed with a personal computer.展开更多

In solving these problems an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian(ALE)kinematical description of the fluid domain is adopted, in which the nodal points can be displaced independently of the fluid motion. A new mesh tracing method is proposed in this paper. To confirm the effectiveness of the new method, solitary wave propagation is analysed and the numerical results are compared with the analytical results. The behaviour of the viscous fluid flow with a free surface is expressed by the unsteady Navier-Stokes equation. For numerical integration in time the velocity correction fractional step method is used.展开更多

An arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian(ALE) model is constructed to predict the macrosegregation caused by thermal–solutal convection and solidi-fi cation shrinkage. A novel mesh update algorithm is developed to account for the domain change induced by solidifi cation shrinkage. The velocity–pressure coupling between the non-homogenous mass conservation equation and momentum equation is addressed by a modifi ed pressure correction method. The governing equations are solved by the streamline-upwind/Petrov–Galerkin-stabilized fi nite element algorithm. The application of the model to the Pb-19.2 wt%Sn alloy solidifi cation problem is considered. The inverse segregation is successfully predicted, and reasonable agreement with the literature results is obtained. Thus, the ALE model is established to be a highly effective tool for predicting the macrosegregation caused by solidifi cation shrinkage and thermal–solutal convection. Finally, the effect of solidifi cation shrinkage is analyzed. The results demonstrate that solidifi cation shrinkage delays the advance of the solidifi cation front and intensifi es the segregation.展开更多
