원형디스크 지지 방식의 롤피어싱 공정의 유한요소해석

Abstract

In this paper, a Mannesmann roll piercing process equipped with Diecher’s guiding discs is investigated using a rigid-thermoviscoplastic finite elements method with intelligent remeshing capability and tetrahedral elements. The analysis model is presented and the approach is applied to a Mannesmann roll piercing process found in the literature. Details about the remeshing criterion as well as mesh density control are given. The present predictions are compared with the predictions found in the literature, showing that the two predictions are in close agreement in terms of the deformed shape. However, it is emphasized that the present approach has the distinct strength in predicting details of final shape.
