- Abstract
- The forging process is the shaping of a workpiece using dynamic loads and typically consists of the multi-step process with the preforming process. Defects such as flash and unfilling occur and the distribution of effective strains is not even in the workpiece after the forging process. An optimized preform is necessary for reduction of the defects in the desired final forging. Optimization of the forging process is nonlinear dynamic response optimization because nonlinearities are involved in the analysis. When the conventional method is utilized in optimization of the forging process, the cost is extremely high due to repeated nonlinear analyses for function and sensitivity calculation. In this paper, the equivalent static loads method for non linear static response structural optimization (ESLSO) is employed to determine the preform shape which leads to reduction of the unfilled area and even distribution of the effective strain in the final forging shape. ESLSO is a structural optimization method where nonlinear dynamic loads are transformed to equivalent static loads (ESLs). ESLs are defined as the loads for linear analysis, which generate the same response field as that of nonlinear analysis. Two kinds of ESLs are proposed and they are the ESLs for the displacements and the ESLs for the effective strains. Examples of the forging process are solved using these ESLs and the results are discussed. © 2010 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc. All rights reserved.
