The boundary condition and a part of the loads are applied. Considering the grades of the stress around the holes being large, the dense grids are adjusted accordingly. Four cases with different loads are compared, thus the influences of different loads on the section are analyzed. Numerical results show that the maximum stress of the section is lower than the strength limit of the material, and the section will not be broken with the static loads.展开更多

In this work, the finite element method was adopted to analyze a particular porthole die to produce hollow rectangle sections which are widely used in construction. The upper die was mainly studied. Because it is symmetrical, a quarter of the die was analyzed. The upper die was divided into 2199 elements with 3018 nodes. Elements were produced by four steps and the geometric shape of the die could be well simulated. The boundary condition was given according to the shape of the welding chamber and an empirical average extrusion stress was adopted, which was 210N/mm 2. Three-dimensional equivalent stresses were received. The original porthole die studied had obvious stress concentration and the stress distribution was very inhomogeneous, which would heavily affect the die life. A new design was proposed in which the portholes were rearranged and their shape and dimension were changed. According to the finite element analysis, the stress distribution of the improved die was quite homogeneous and the stress concentration was lessened.展开更多

The influence of friction factor on the deformation uniformity of ECSLE was investigated with rigid plastic finite element method. The result shows that the non-uniform deformation in extrusion is caused mainly by the friction between workpiece and die. The higher the friction factor is, the more uneven plastic deformation resulted in extruded workpiece. The relation curve of deformation uniformity vs. friction factor was drawn based on the analysis result. The curve can be used as a basis of ECSLE process design.展开更多
