Based on this, a visualization system for 3-D explosion--ViSC3D is designed. Approaches for the visualization of 3-D field of explosion are presented. The algorithm and the functions of ViSC3D are also presented. ViSC3D is thus a useful tool to observe and analyze either the full picture or the details of a 3-D field of explosion, that are difficult to observe and analyze directly. With ViSC3D, the field of explosion between the hill slopes is visualized. The cutaway views and 2-D slices are also given. The full picture and partial details of 3-D field of explosion can be observed clearly. Furthermore, ViSC3D can be used to visualize other similar 3-D data fields.展开更多

In this algorithm, a-posteriori error estimator was employed to generate adaptively refined mesh on a given initial mesh. On these iterative meshes, V-cycle based multigrid method was adopted to fast solve each linear equation with each initial iterative term interpolated from last mesh. With this error estimator, the unknowns were nearly optimally distributed on the final mesh which guaranteed the accuracy. The numerical results show that the multigrid solver is faster and more stable compared with ICCG solver. Meanwhile, the numerical results obtained from the final model discretization approximate the analytical solutions with maximal relative errors less than 1%, which remarkably validates this algorithm.展开更多

This formulation utilizes the stabilized conforming nodal integration, where for the purpose of stability and efficiency a Lagrangian smoothing strain at nodal point is constructed and thereafter the internal energy is evaluated nodally. This formulation ensures the linear exactness, efficiency and spatial stability in a unified manner and it makes the conventional Galerkin meshfree method affordable for three dimensional simulation. The three dimensional implementation of stabilized conforming nodal integration is discussed in details. To model the failure evolution in soil medium a coupled elasto-plastic damage model is used and an objective stress integration algorithm in combination of elasto-damage predictor and plastic corrector method is employed for stress update. Two typical numerical examples are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present method for modeling large deformation soil failure.展开更多

In this model, the cutting layer is simplified firstly. Then, the models of cutting force and cutting temperature are established to gain the cutting loads, which are applied to the mesh model of the part. Finally, a prototype of machining simulation environment is developed to simulate the milling process of a spar. Key factors influencing the distortion, such as initial residual stress, cutting loads, fixture layout, cutting sequence, and tool path are considered all together. The total distortion of the spar is predicted and an experiment is conducted to validate the numerical results. It is found that the maximum discrepancy between the simulation results and experiment values is 19.0%展开更多
文摘S-R(strain-rotation)和分解定理克服了经典有限变形理论的一些缺点,使其可以为几何非线性数值分析提供可靠的理论基础.对于大变形问题,由于无网格法(element-free method)避免了对单元网格的依赖,从而从根本上避免了有限单元法(finite element method,FEM)的单元畸变问题,保证了求解精度.因此,将无网格法和S-R和分解定理结合起来势必能建立一套更加合理可靠的几何非线性数值计算方法.目前基于S-R定理的无网格数值方法研究较少并且只能用于二维平面问题的求解,但实际上绝大多数问题都必须以三维模型来进行处理,因此建立适用于三维情况的S-R无网格法是非常有必要的.本文给出了适用于三维情况的S-R无网格法:采用由更新拖带坐标法和势能率原理推导出来的增量变分方程,利用基于全局弱式的无网格Galerkin法(EFG)得到了用于求解三维空间问题的离散格式.利用MATLAB编制三维S-R无网格法程序,对受均布载荷的三维悬臂梁和四边简支矩形板结构的非线性弯曲问题进行了计算.最后将所得的数值结果与已有文献进行了比较,验证了本文的三维S-R无网格数值算法的合理性、有效性和准确性.本文的三维S-R无网格数值算法可以作为一种可靠的三维几何非线性数值分析方法.
