Incorporation of sheet-forming effects in crash simulations using ideal forming theory and hybrid membrane and shell method
journal contribution
posted on 2005-02-01, 00:00 authored by H Ryou, K Chung, Jeong YoonJeong Yoon, C S Han, J R Youn, T J KangIn order to achieve reliable but cost-effective crash simulations of stamped parts, sheet-forming process effects were incorporated in simulations using the ideal forming theory mixed with the three-dimensional hybrid membrane and shell method, while the subsequent crash simulations were carried out using a dynamic explicit finite element code. Example solutions performed for forming and crash simulations of I- and S-shaped rails verified that the proposed approach is cost effective without sacrificing accuracy. The method required a significantly small amount of additional computation time, less than 3% for the specific examples, to incorporate sheet-forming effects into crash simulations. As for the constitutive equation, the combined isotropic-kinematic hardening law and the nonquadratic anisotropic yield stress potential as well as its conjugate strain-rate potential were used to describe the anisotropy of AA6111-T4 aluminum alloy sheets.
