  1. 1. Ductile damage modeling of the machining process

    Author : SENAD RAZANICA; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mesh dependence; Johnson-Cook; Ductile fracture; Thermodynamics; Machining simulation; Damage driving energy; Damage evolution; Damage threshold criterion;

    Abstract : Machining processes are among the most common manufacturing processes for producing components used on a daily basis. It is a complex material removal process. Today, the research and development within the manufacturing industry is addressed by cost efficient numerical simulation strategies rather than by costly experimental procedures. READ MORE

  3. 3. Macroscale Modelling of 3D-Woven Composites: Inelasticity, Progressive Damage and Final Failure

    Author : Carolyn Oddy; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 3D-woven composites; Anisotropy; Damage; Inelasticity; Phase-field; Failure;

    Abstract : Composites with 3D-woven reinforcement have been slowly making their way into different industrial applications. The interlacement of yarns, not only in-plane but also through-thickness, means that in many applications 3D-woven composites can outperform their laminated counterparts. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling of compaction of metal powder and damage accum ulation due to fatigue in powder materials

    Author : Joakim Cedergren; Mekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik; Maskinteknik; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; friction; FEM; numerical modelling; continuum mechanics; fatigue loading; powder compaction; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses powder manufactured (P/M) components, with special attention to the compaction process and to the sensitivity to damage accumulation due to fatigue within powder compacted specimens. Three dimensional simulations of the compaction process have been performed, using an explicit dynamic dilatant finite strain finite element code supplemented with the effects from contact friction within the die, modelled by Coulomb friction.

  5. 5. Realistic Package Opening Simulations : An Experimental Mechanics and Physics Based Approach

    Author : Eskil Andreasson; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer; aluminium foil; semi-crystalline; progressive damage; Abaqus;

    Abstract : A finite element modeling strategy targeting package opening simulations is the final goal with this work. The developed simulation model will be used to proactively predict the opening compatibility early in the development process of a new opening device and/or a new packaging material. READ MORE
