The paper presents results of FE-calculations on shear localizations in quasi-brittle materials during both an uniaxial plane strain compression and uniaxial plane strain extension. An elasto-plastic model with a linear Drucker-Prager type criterion using isotropic hardening and softening and non-associated flow rule was used. A non-local extension was applied in a softening regime to capture realistically shear localization and to obtain a well-posed boundary value problem. A characteristic length was incorporated via a weighting function. Attention was focused on the effect of mesh size, mesh alignment, non-local parameter and imperfections on the thickness and inclination of shear localization. Different methods to calculate plastic strain rates were carefully discussed.

In this paper we analyzed bulging condition which affect the quality of continuous casting steel by using the numerical analytic method. First solidification analyses are performed for each cooling zones. Solidification analysis are carried out by one-dimensuional finite difference method. The bulging deformation of cast slab has been calculated with a two-dimensional elasto-plastic and creep finite element model. The adequacy of the model has been checked against the experimental results. From this study the effects of the process variables such as casting speed cooling condition roll pitch are examined. The results from these analyses would be able to apply to the design of continuous casting process.

The analysis had been already completed to detect forming defects for the forming processes of C/R bearing rings. But some unpredicted problems were found through the experiments. So expert redesigned new forming processes to prevent the problems and new analysis was began according to the new processes to find faults for the processes. The forming processes consist of 1 for the outer ring. 6 inner ring. The thickness of metal sheet used is changed to 1.5mm from 1.6mm. Elasto-plastric finite element method is applied to involve the effect of spring back . The most representative alteration is forming of two predents to assist later forming . Thining and distribution of high residual stress are derived from the results of simulations. It is confirmed that the industry expert agree the possiblilty of defects dervied from the new FEM results.

A finite element analysis code considering elasto-plastic large deformation is developed to predict the ultimate strength of circular cylinders subject to external pressure loading by introducing a new type of axisymmetric shell element which can take into account the plasticity effect due to the circumferential bending while drastically saving the computing efforts compared with the tree dimensional finite element analysis. It is observed that analsis results of present approach show good agreement with the test results of previous works. Parametric study gives the effects of initial imperfections on ultimate strength ahd this information is recommended to be used to modify the actual test data to the ones which can be used more reasonably in making empirical design formulas.

Recently, instead of a matched die forming method requiring a high cost and long deliverly ten a multi-point dieless forming method using a pair of matrix type punch array as flexible dies has been developed. As this multi-point dieless forming method has some disadvantage of difficulty in precise punch control and high-cost of equipment, a new concept of multi-point dieless forming method combined with elastomer forming was suggested in this study. For optimal selection of elastomers, compression tests of rubbers, polyethylene and foams were carried out together with FEM analysis of the deformation behavior during sheet forming process using a rigid punch and elastomers. Compressive strain was concentrated on the upper central area of the elastomer under the punch, and the rubber exhibited higher concentration of the compressive strain than foams. Two-dimensional curved surface was formed successfully by the multi-point elasto-dieless forming method using an optimal combination of a rubber and foam.

The tension levelling process is performed to elongate the strip plastically in combination of tensile and bending strain so that all longitudinal fibers in the strip have an approximately equal amount of length and undesirable strip shapes are corrected to the flat shape. This paper is concerned with a simulation of the tension levelling process based on the analysis of the unit model for the tension leveller. Analysis technique such as the sequential analysis of the nit model is suggested and verified with the assembly analysis of the unit model for the effective and economic analysis of the full set of the tension leveller. Analysis of the full tension levelling process using sequential unit models is carried out and provides the effect of the intermesh and optimum amount of the intermesh in tension levelling process.

Elasto-plastic finite element analysis was carried out for analyzing the severe plastic deformation behavior of copper specimens during groove pressing. Deformation localization was studied in terms of strain variations along the longitudinal direction. Plastic strain is lower at the local interface between the shear and the flat regions, which receive very little shear during the pressing cycle. Strain localization is more intensified with the number of rove pressing cycles, although the average strain level increases.

Finite element simulation is a widely applied method for practical purpose in various metal forming process. However, in the simulation of elasto-plastic behavior of porous material or in crystal plasticity coupled multi-scale simulation, it requires much calculation time, which is a limitation in its application in practical situations. A machine learning model that directly outputs the constitutive equation without iterative calculations would greatly reduce the calculation time of the simulation. In this study, we examined the possibility of artificial intelligence based constitutive equation with the input of existing state variables and current velocity filed. To introduce the methodology, we described the process of obtaining the training data, machine learning process and the coupling of machine learning model with commercial software DEFROM^TM, as a preliminary study, via rigid plastic finite element simulation.

In the present work, the evolution rules for the internal variables including continuum damage factors are obtained using the thermodynamic framework, which are in turn facilitated to derive the elastic-plastic constitutive relation for the particulate composites. Using the Mori-Tanaka scheme, the homogenization on state and internal variables such as back-stress and damage factors is carried out to procure the rate independent plasticity relations. Moreover, the degradation of mechanical properties of constituents is depicted by the distinctive damages such that the phase and interfacial damages are treated individually accordingly, whereas the kinematic hardening is depicted by combining the Armstrong-Frederick and Phillips' back-stress evolutions. On the other hand, the present constitutive relation for each phase is expressed in terms of the respective damage-free effective quantities, then, followed by transformation into the damage affected overall nominal relations using the aforementioned homogenization concentration factors. An emphasis is placed on the qualitative analyses for strain localization by observing the perturbation growth instead of the conventional bifurcation analyses. It turns out that the proposed constitutive model offers a wide range of strain localization behavior depending on the evolution of various internal variable descriptions.
