Abstract
AbstractA rigid‐plastic hybrid element method (HEM) for simulation of metal forming is developed. This method is a mixed approach of the rigid‐plastic domain‐BEM and the rigid‐plastic FEM based on the theory of compressible plasticity. Because the compatibilities of not only velocity but also velocity's derivative between the adjoining boundary elements and finite elements can be met, the velocities and the derivatives of the velocity can be calculated with the same precision for the rigid‐plastic HEM. Then, it is considered that the rigid‐plastic HEM is a more precise method in formulation than the conventional rigid‐plastic FEMs for which the compatibilities of velocity's derivative cannot be met. The plane strain upsetting processes with two friction factors are analyzed by the rigid‐plastic HEM in this article. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
