Description:<br />

A rod of steel is forged between two dies. The billet upset problem is a measure of friction under<br />

forming conditions.<br />

Model:<br />

The billet material is isotropic elastic-plastic, and the model has 1/8 symmetry. The billet measures<br />

2.25 inches in height and 1.26 inches in radius. The die compresses the billet 1.60 inches. The<br />

relationship between the shear friction and the normal pressure is bilinear.<br />

Input:<br />

The mass scaling time step size is set to 12 microseconds (*CONTROL_TIMESTEP). The billet<br />

nodes contact the die surfaces (*CONTACT_NODES_TO_SURFACE). The Coulomb frictional<br />

constant is 0.10 and the constant shear is 2,055 psi . A half sine wave defines the velocity of the<br />

die (*DEFINE_LOAD, *BOUNDARY_PRESCRIBED_MOTION).<br />

Procedure for remapping:<br />

1. Extract nodal coordinates at the desired time to remap. D3PLOT provides a means for<br />

dumping nodal coordinates using the 'write' command.<br />

2. The connectivities of the exterior surface of the original model combined with the deformed<br />

nodal coordinates define an enclosed discretized surface.<br />

3. Create a new initial <strong>LS</strong>-<strong>DYNA</strong> input deck by remeshing the volume contained by the<br />

discretized surface.<br />

4. D3PLOT does not read mixed values of nodes and elements, so move the old binary plot<br />

files.<br />

Results:<br />

The results show that effective plastic strains before and after remapping are unchanged.<br />
