Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a key tool for predicting stresses, strains, and material flow in these processes. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have further enhanced these simulations, improving toolpath planning and overall process efficiency Appl Mech 1:97-110, 2020, ASME J Manuf Sci Eng 144(2):021012, 2021. A critical aspect of sheet metal forming is the development of forming tools, which must withstand high forces and ensure precision. Traditionally, tool design has relied on a trial-and-error approach, heavily dependent on manufacturer expertise. This paper introduces an innovative methodology that integrates sheet metal forming simulations with the structural analysis of forming tools, facilitated by a specialized connector. The connector enables integrated analysis of the forming process and tool structural behaviour, providing feedback on tool performance under operational loads. The output of the forming simulation (contact pressures between workpiece and tools) feeds the structural model. Additionally, the methodology incorporates AI-driven what-if analysis to streamline decision-making in the early design stages. This modular solution is designed to integrate with a Digital Twin framework, offering continuous optimization. The proposed methodology enhances manufacturing efficiency by reducing simulation time and improving tool structural behaviour predictions, enabling faster, more accurate tool development and ultimately minimizing trial-and-error in tool design.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142994543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the material flow in orthogonal cutting, including primary and secondary shear zones, is represented by a viscous/viscoplastic model that includes the temperature-sensitive Johnson-Cook flow stress model. A stabilized staggered finite element procedure is developed to handle incompressible Navier-Stokes material flow in combination with convection-dominated hardening and thermomechanical interaction. To handle material flow at tool-workpiece contact, a mixed method is used to reduce spurious oscillations in contact stresses along with simplified heat transfer in the tool-workpiece interface. A novel feature is that the velocity field is resolved as a subscale field to the velocity field of the distributed primary zone deformation model. It appears that the finite element solution to the subscale material flow model is significantly more cost-effective in contrast to directly addressing the velocity field and compared to the chip-forming simulations (DEFORM 2D). The cutting forces, temperature, and stress-strain state of the material in the critical deformation regions can be accurately estimated using the subscale model. The results obtained show that the trend of the estimated forces and temperatures is consistent with our experimental measurements, the DEFORM 2D simulations, and the experimental data from the literature.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12289-025-01875-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142962888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a 3D finite element model of a typical screw type blind rivet was built and validated by experimental results. According to the simulation results, it was found that the large blind head’s shape and pre-load were highly sensitive to the thickness ratio of insert and sleeve, the height ratio of insert and sleeve, the tapered angle of the nut body nose and the inclining angle, while the tapered angle of sheet and the height ratio of insert and sleeve’s inner stepped surface had relatively little impacts. Specifically, the thickness ratio, height ratio and nose angle had the suitable ranges, not within which an unqualified blind head with minor pre-load, small diameter, or (and) prohibited double flexures would occur. The pre-load is inversely proportional to inclining angle, whose optimum is 0°. In addition, the divided stages revealed the drop of pre-load caused by instability, while no instability took place in large thickness ratio.

This study aimed to mitigate these defects by investigating the causes and mitigating strategies for two types of creases in aluminum profiles formed via flexible stretch bending with roller-type multi-point dies (FSBRD). To achieve dynamic control over the mold surface, magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) were employed to harness their magnetorheological effect, enabling adjustable mold hardness. The adjustable hardness of the mold, enabled by MREs, was investigated under varying magnetic inductions to form T-shaped profiles. The results quantitatively demonstrate that the addition of MREs significantly reduces crease defects, with a minimum value of thick direction strain not exceeding -0.1, and improves moulding quality. Specifically, at a profile thickness of 10mm, an optimal magnetic induction of 200mT minimized crease depth, while for a 66mm thickness, 400mT was most effective. It was also found that increasing the coefficient of friction between the MRE and the contour resulted in a decrease in crease depth and a decrease followed by an increase in crease height. Experimental validation confirmed the simulation accuracy, with thickness trends of the experimentally formed profiles closely matching the simulated ones. The study concludes that the FSBRD-M process is effective in controlling creases and expands the application of MREs in forming technology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142826414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This technique relies on tensile test results obtained from notched specimens cut from cold-rolled steel (DC06EK). The study's originality lies in utilizing both global and local experimental data, focusing principally on the force–displacement curves and the evolution of equivalent plastic strain within two zones of the specimen: rupture and deformation stagnation. The parameter identification demonstrated a good agreement between experimental data and numerical results. In the second step, the determined work hardening law coupled with the GTN damage model was implemented in a numerical simulation of an industrial deep drawing process for a wheelbarrow tray (WBT). The outcomes of the numerical simulation, in terms of thickness reduction in the deep-drawn WBT, were compared with the experimental results, showing very good agreement. A further comparison was made between the numerical results with and without the GTN model, as well as with a previous study (without GTN) on the same numerical simulation.
