Finite element analysis of shearing processes
Isbir, S.; Darendeliler, Haluk; Gökler, Mustafa İlhan (null; 2006-12-01)
Shearing of sheet metal is extensively used in manufacturing industry. It is a highly non-linear process and involves complex mechanisms such as crack initiation and propagation, and deliberate fracture of the material for obtaining the desired geometry. Finite element method can be used for the design of shearing process. However, most of the general purpose commercial finite element analysis programs do not provide ready-to-use facilities to simulate shearing. In this paper, finite element simulation of s...
Finite element analysis of discontinuous contact problems
Bodur, Mehmet Ata; Geçit, M. Ruşen; Department of Engineering Sciences (2006)
Contact is a phenomenon faced in every day life, which is actually a complex problem to tackle for engineers. Most of the times, may be impossible to get analytic or exact results for the interaction of bodies in contact. In this thesis work, solution of the frictionless contact of an elastic body, touching to a rigid planar surface for two-dimensional elasticity; namely plane stress, plane strain and axi-symmetric formulations is aimed. The problem is solved numerically, with Finite Element Method, and an ...
Finite element analysis of laboratory model experiments on behavior of shallow foundations under general loading
Oktay, Hasan Emre; Bakır, Bahadır Sadık; Department of Civil Engineering (2012)
In this study, a series of laboratory model experiments carried on shallow foundations is intended to be simulated through numerical modeling. The laboratory model tests were conducted by Fukui et al. (2005), over square shaped, shallow surfacial foundations located over air-dried Toyoura sand. Tests included centered vertical and combined loading cases on sand with 60% and 80% relative densities. Plastic limit loads obtained from numerical analyses and available analytical solutions in literature are compa...
Finite element analysis of bending operation of aluminum profiles
Penekli, Ufuk; Darendeliler, Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
Bending process is an important forming process in most industrial fields. Springback and cross-section distortion are commonly faced problems in bending process. Springback behavior of closed and open section beams changes with different parameters such as cross-section type, cross-section dimensions, bend radius and bend angle. For closed sections like tube, the dominating problem is cross-section distortion. The thickness of the tube at intrados (inner surface of tube being in contact with die) increases...
