Numerical-simulation method for rotary metal forming, recording medium and program

摘要

Elongation in the circumferential direction of a rotary formed body (31) is produced only within a model zone (M), and the approximate toric plate shape is maintained as the overall shape of the body (31), and the rotation axis (O) of the body (31) is positioned on a straight line connecting axes of rotation (P1, P2) of a main roll (32) and a mandrel roll (33). Moreover, the velocity of each nodal point (ua, va) and (ub, vb) on imaginary cutting planes (31 A, 31B), that is a velocity boundary condition is expressed by a linear combination of coefficients comprising a radius (rn) of the imaginary cutting planes (31A, 31B), and angles ( a and b) made by the imaginary cutting planes (31A, 31B), with respect to three variables comprising an increasing rate (rv) of the radius of the body (31), an angular velocity ( omega ) for rotation about the rotation axis (O) of the body (31), and a correction value (cv) for the traverse velocity (ov) of the rotation axis (O) of the body (31).
