A simple modeling is put forward based on the spiral motion of the workpiece as an essential characteristic in movement. The influence of the feed angle and the entry cone angle of the main roll on the process was taken into account in the modeling. The soundness for simplifying the 3-D rotary rolling into a 2-D problem was discussed. By adopting the parameters of Diescher piercer in 140mm mandrel mill of Bao Steel, the distribution and development of strain/stress were analyzed, and the eigen value of ductile fracture as well. The critical percentage of diameter reduction was obtained from the simulation. The result showed a good agreement with the experimental value, and therefore was of widely guiding significance to the practical process for rationally formulating the deformation parameters of steel tube piercing.展开更多

The key forming conditions of cold HR of bearing steel-balls were detailedly described. Then, by taking steel-ball rolling elements of the B7008 C angular contact ball bearing as an example, a completed 3D elastic-plastic FE model of cold HR forming process was established under SIMUFACT software environment. Furthermore, the deformation characteristics in HR process were discovered, including the forming process, evolution and distribution laws of strain, stress and damage based on Lemaitre relative damage model. The results reveal that the central loosening and cavity defects in HR process may have a combined effect of large negative hydrostatic pressure(positive mean stress)caused by multi-dimensional tensile stresses, high level transverse tensile stress, and circular-alternating shear stress in cross section.展开更多

The forming pro- cesses of welded pipes are systematically simulated by using the method. The three-dimensional cu rved surfaces of sheet metals in forming processes are mathema tically expressed by using the shape fonction S(X) which represents flow pattern of each part of sheet metal. Through optimis- ing t e parameter n in s(X), the best approximation of the deformation of sheet metal is derived and the minimum power of deformation is obtained. A mathematical procedure of this analysis is systematically foimulated. The simulation method can be applied to the analysis and simulation for various roll- forming processes of welded pipes observed in commercial production line.展开更多
