In the analysis of metal forming process, ALE(Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian) finite element methods have been increasingly used for the capability to control mesh independently from material flow. The methods can be divided into two groups i.e., coupled and split formulations. In the present work, the split ALE formulation is used for computational efficiency. A split ALE finite element method developed for rigid-viscoplastic materials and applied to the analysis of hot square die extrusion. Since thermal state greatly affects the product quality, an ALE scheme for temperature analysis is also presented. As computational examples, profile shapes as square and cross-like sections are chosen.

An arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) finite element method has been developed. The finite element formation is derived and implemented for rigid-viscoplastic materials. The developed computer program is applied to the analysis of axisymmetric square die extrusion, which has many difficulties with updated Lagrangian approach. The results are compared with those from updated Largrangian approach. The results are compared with those from updated Lagrangian finite element program. Updating scheme of time dependent variables and mesh control are also examined.

A computational analysis of engineering problems with moving domain or/and boundary according to either Lagrangian or Eulerian approach may encounter inherent numerical difficulties, the extreme mesh distortion in the former and the material boundary indistinctness in the latter. In order to overcome such defects in classical numerical approaches, the ALE(arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian) method is widely being adopted in which the finite element mesh moves with arbitrary velocity. This paper is concerned with the ALE finite element formulation, aiming at the dynamic response analysis of baffled fuel-storage container in yawing motion, for which the coupled time integration scheme, the remeshing and smoothing algorithm and the mesh velocity determination are addressed. Numerical simulation illustrating theoretical works is also presented.

A porous medium is composed of solids, fluids, and gas which have different physical and chemical properties. In addition, these constituents have a relative velocity between each other. So far, in order to analyze porous media using finite element method, Lagrangian or Eulerian method has been used. However, the numerical analyses for porous media have a defect that the methods do not describe the movements of constituents. In this paper, numerical analysis for unsaturated porous media was performed in frame of ALE method which has advantages of Lagrangian and Eulerian. Namely, the Lagrangian description was used in solid phase, and the Eulerian description was used in fluid or gas phase in a porous medium Then the relationship between each other was controlled by the convective term in ALE method. Finally, the numerical results of ALE were compared with tile results of Lagrangian analysis.

비행체의 선회운동 시 액체연료 저장탱크의 동응답을 ALE(arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian) 유한요소법을 이용하여 해석하였다. 연료탱크는 선회운동 시 내부 연료의 관성력에 의해 상당한 양의 충격하중을 받게 된다. 또한 이로 인해 유발된 큰 동 하중과 모멘트는 구조물의 안정성과 제어시스템에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 내부연료의 동적 영향력을 억제하기 위하여 링형배플을 채용하였다. 배플개수와 배플위치에 따른 연료탱크의 파라메트릭 해석을 통하여 연료탱크의 동응답 특성에 미치는 배플의 영향을 분석하였다. 유체와 구조물 사이의 연계는 ALE 유한요소법을 통하여 정확하고 효과적으로 처리되었다.

Porous media consist of physically and chemically different materials and have an extremely complicated behavior due to the different material properties of each of its constituents. In addition, the internal structure of porous media has generally a complex geometry that makes the description of its mechanical behavior quite complex. Thus, in order to describe and clarify the deformation behavior of porous media, constitutive models for deformation of porous media coupling several effects such as flow of fluids of thermodynamical change need to be developed in frame of Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) description. The aim of ALE formulations is to maximize the advantages of Lagrangian and Eulerian methods, and to minimize the disadvantages. Therefore, this method is appropriate for the analysis of porous media that are considered for the behavior of solids and fluids. First of all, governing equations for saturated porous media based on ALE description are derived. Then, weak forms of these equations are obtained in order to implement numerical method using finite element method. Finally, Petrov-Galerkin method Is applied to develop finite element formulation.

The arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian(ALE) finite element analysis is applied to the axisymmetric hot extrusion through continuous dies. In order to simulate hot forming problems, an ALE scheme for temperature analysis is proposed. The computed results are compared with experimental results as with those by pure Lagrangian method. In the present study mesh control is accomplished by the use of isoparametric mapping of quadrilaterals.

본 연구의 주 목적은 다양한 요인에 의해 케이블-막구조물에 요소이동이 발생할 때, 당초 해석 시 가정되었던 좌표나 응력상태의 변화에 대해 막과 케이블 사이에 발생하는 요소이동의 방향이나 크기를 산정하고, 요소이동이 발생한 후 응력상태의 변화를 규명하는 것이다. 먼저 케이블 보강 막구조물의 요소이동 문제를 해석하기 위한 이론적 배경인 ALE 유한요소법의 개념을 소개하고, ALE 개념이 도입된 케이블-막구조물에서의 요소이동을 고려한 강성매트릭스를 작성하여 해석 프로그램을 개발한다. 개발된 프로그램의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 다양한 예제 해석을 수행한다.

The use of ceramics for extrusion dies is limited since the modification of die design is difficult. In order to successfully apply the ceramic dies to extrusion dies, a better understanding of the process should be preceded. This study focuses on understanding the characteristics of the process. In the present study, a hot extrusion of tube with a mandrel is analyzed by ALE finite element method. In order to obtain the stress state of ceraminc dies, the elastic analysis of dies is also carried out.

The FVM(Finite Volume Method) have been used mainly for the flow analyses in the piston-cylinder. The objective of the present study is to analyze numerically the piston-driven intake flows using the FEM(Finite Element Method). The FEM algorithm used in this study is 4-step time-splitting method which requires much less execution time and computer storage than the velocity-pressure integrated method and the penalty method. And the explicit Lax-Wendroff scheme is applied to nonlinear convective term in the momentum equations to prevent checkerboard pressure oscillations. Also, the ALE(arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian) method is adopted for the moving grids. The calculated results show good agreement in comparison with those by the FVM and the experimental results by the LDA.
