Abstract

An advanced numerical methodology is developed for metal forming simulation based on thermodynamically-consistent nonlocal constitutive equations accounting for various fully coupled mechanical phenomena under finite strain in the framework of micromorphic continua. The numerical implementation into ABAQUS/Explicit is made for 2D quadrangular elements thanks to the VUEL users’ subroutine. Simple examples with presence of a damaged area are made in order to show the ability of the proposed methodology to describe the independence of the solution from the space discretization.

Summary

Introduction

Like all other sectors of engineering sciences, the field of material forming simulation or “virtual forming” takes full benefit from these scientific and technological developments. The NUMIFORM triennial international conferences series, introduced by the late Prof. O.C.Zienkiewicz in 1982, aim to provide a forum where recent advances and future directions in the numerical simulations of forming and manufacturing processes are discussed by scientists and engineers from academia and industry worldwide.
