基于FEM-Archard模型的高强钢冲压成形粘模行为评估

为探明高强钢冲压成形过程中的粘模机理,利用数值模拟与工艺试验相结合的方法系统评估了其宏观粘模行为.以高强钢SPFC590为研究对象,采用方盒拉深成形工艺,基于FEM-Archard磨损模型研究了弯曲-拉深复合变形模式下界面压力与滑移距离对粘模行为的影响规律.研究结果表明,方盒拉深过程中模具的宏观粘模行为主要集中在界面压力较大的拉深圆角与弯曲直边相接处附近,并随着拉深次数的增加(即滑移距离的增大),粘模量不断增大且不断向拉深方向扩展.同时,基于FEM-Archard磨损模型得到的粘模评估结果与方盒拉深试验结果相一致.

Numerical Simulation of Dam Breaking Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics and Viscosity Behavior

Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is a Lagrangian meshless particle method. It is one of the best method for simulating violent free surface flows in fluids and solving large fluid deformations. Dam breaking is a typical example of these problems. The basis of SPH was reviewed, including some techniques for governing equation resolution, such as the stepping method and the boundary handling method. Then numerical results of a dam breaking simulation were discussed, and the benefits of concepts like artificial viscosity and position correction were analyzed in detail. When compared with dam breaking simulated by the volume of fluid (VOF) method, the wave profile generated by SPH had good agreement, but the pressure had only reasonable agreement. Improving pressure results is clearly an important next step for research.

Influence of features of natural soft clay on behaviour of embankment

The influence of different features of natural soft clays,namely anisotropy,destructuration and viscosity,on modelling the time-dependent behaviour of Murro embankment was investigated.The newly developed elasto-viscoplastic models were enhanced for determining viscosity parameters in a straightforward way and adopted for the finite element analysis.The same set of common parameters determined from conventional triaxial and oedometer tests was employed for all models,with additional parameters required for representing different soil features.The finite element predictions by using models coupled with BIOT's consolidation theory were compared with each other and with field data for settlement,horizontal displacement and excess pore pressures.In addition,the stress paths under the embankment loading were also compared with each other to improve the understanding of the effect of different soil features.All simulations demonstrate that all three features significantly influence the predictions.As a consequence,accounting for soil features needs to be carefully considered when they are applied to a construction site.

Visco-elastoplastic damage constitutive model for compressed asphalt mastic

In order to describe the three-stage creep behavior of compressed asphalt mastic, a visco-elastoplastic damage constitutive model is proposed in this work. The model parameters are treated as quadratic polynomial functions with respect to stress and temperature. A series of uniaxial compressive creep experiments are performed at various stress and temperature conditions in order to determine these parameter functions, and then the proposed model is validated by comparison between the predictions and experiments at the other loading conditions. It is shown that very small permanent deformation at low stress and temperature increases rapidly with elevated stress or temperature and the damage may initiate in the stationary stage but mainly develops in the accelerated stage. Compared with the visco-elastoplastic models without damage, the predictions from the proposed model is in better agreement with the experiments, and can better capture the rate-dependency in creep responses of asphalt mastic especially below its softening point of 47 ℃

UH model considering temperature effects

The influences of temperature on the mechanical behavior of saturated clays are discussed first. Based on the concept of true strength and the revised calculation method of the potential failure stress ratio, the equation of the critical state stress ratio for saturated clays under different temperatures is deduced. Temperature is introduced as a variable into the UH model （3-dimensional elastoplastic model for overconsolidated clays adopting unified hardening parameter） proposed by Yao et al. and then the UH model considering temperature effects is proposed. By means of the transformed stress method proposed by Yao et al., the proposed model can be applied conveniently to 3-dimensional stress states. The strain-hardening, softening and dilatancy behavior of overconsolidated clays at a given temperature can be described using the proposed model, and the volume change behavior caused by heating can also be predicted. Compared with the modified Cam-clay model, the proposed model requires only one additional parameter to consider the behavior of the decrease of preconsolidation pressure with an increase of temperature. At room temperature, the proposed model can be changed into the original UH model and the modified Cam-clay model for overconsolidated clays and normally consolidated clays, respectively. The considered temperature range here is from the melting point to the boiling point of the pore water （e.g. the experimental temperatures （20℃-95℃） mentioned in this paper are within this range）. Comparison with existing test results shows that the model can reasonably describe the basic mechanical behavior of overconsolidated clays under various temperature paths.
