摘要
High pressure squeeze is the most popular moulding process applied in modern moulding machines.Because of the unique characters of moulding sand and nonlinearity of squeezing process,the mechanical model is of key importance for computer simulation.Drucker-Prager/Cap is a typical soil mechanical theory model and it was used to simulate the squeezing process in this study,while ABAQUS software is used to simulate dynamic stress/strain evolution during the process.The simulation agrees well with the experimental results.We conclude that Drucker-Prager/Cap is an appropriate model for the squeezing compaction of moulding sand,and that the associated nonlinearity can be solved well with ABAQUS software.
