The adaptive remeshing technique for quadrilateral elements consists of modules the trigger of remeshing, the new mesh generation, adaptive refinement and interpolation of field variables. The new adaptive mesh generation is the key problem. First, a coarse mesh is created by using “loop algorithm“. Subsequent local mesh adaptive refinement is performed based on effective strain. Finally, a typical example of upsetting is given to test efficient of techniques, from which it is verified that the remeshing algorithm developed here exhibits good performance and has high accuracy.     

密度函数驱动的度量重构及其应用

一般情况下,以密度函数作为权重的带权测地距离并不满足严格的三角不等式,给诸多几何问题的解决带来了一定的困难.为此,提出一种基于密度函数重构非退化度量的鲁棒算法.该算法将给定密度函数与网格曲面的缺省密度场相结合重设网格曲面的边长,并保证每个三角形的新边长仍然满足三角不等式;然后使用精确的测地线算法计算任意两点之间的带权测地距离.实验结果表明,文中算法以平均曲率作为密度函数重构度量,在自适应采样与重新网格化问题上得到了高质量的结果,展示了该算法的有用性和有效性.

A 2D finite element analysis of the effect of numerical parameters on the reliability of Ti6Al4V machining modeling

Abstract

The numerical analysis, based on the finite element modeling (FEM), presents nowadays an efficient computational tool. It allows a better understanding of several thermo-mechanical phenomena involved during the machining process. However, its reliability heavily depends on the accurate definition of the numerical model. In this regard, a FE analysis focused on the 2D modeling of the Ti6Al4V dry orthogonal machining was carried out in this study. The relevance of different numerical meshing approaches and finite elements topologies was studied. The effect of the friction coefficient on the numerical chip morphology, its geometry, the cutting and the feed forces was investigated. The adequacy of several compared adaptive meshing approaches, in terms of the modeling of severe contact conditions taking place around the cutting-edge radius, was underlined in the current study. However, numerical serrated chips, closer to the experimental ones, were only predicted when the pure Lagrangian formulation was adopted and a proper determination of the failure energy was carried out. The definition of different mesh topologies highlighted the efficiency of the 4-node quadrangular mesh, with a suitable edge length, in increasing the agreement with the experimental data, while reducing the computing times.

全局各向异性四边形主导网格重建方法?

四边形网格的结构特点要求网格单元满足全局一致性,难以取得网格质量与表达效率之间的平衡。为此,提出一种基于全局的各向异性四边形主导网格重建方法,可生成网格质量好且冗余程度低的四边形网格。重建过程以主曲率线为基本采样单元,首先计算模型表面的主曲率场并对主曲率场积分,得到密集的主曲率线采样;再根据贪心算法,利用几何形体自身的各向异性找出冗余度最高的主曲率线并予以删除;如此循环,直至达到理想的采样密度。该重建方法适用于任意拓扑网格模型,所得到的各向异性四边形主导网格在网格模型分辨率下降时,由于始终保留重要主曲率线,从而可以更好地保持模型特征。同时,在基于贪心算法的渐进式主曲率线删除过程中,可产生分辨率连续可调的四边形主导网格。     

Modeling of crack propagation via an automatic adaptive mesh refinement based on modified superconvergent patch recovery technique

In this paper, an automated adaptive remeshing procedure is presented for simulation of arbitrary shape crack growth in a 2D finite element mesh. The Zienkiewicz-Zhu error estimator is employed in conjunction with a modified SPR technique based on the recovery of gradients using analytical crack-tip fields in order to obtain more accurate estimation of errors. The optimization of crack-tip singular finite element size is achieved through the adaptive mesh strategy. Finally, several numerical examples are illustrated to demonstrate the effectiveness, robustness and accuracy of computational algorithm in calculation of fracture parameters and prediction of crack path pattern.
