Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT In this paper, an Eulerian formulation is developed from the more general Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation and is used in rolling process simulation. Starting from the basic principles of continuum mechanics, a consistent ALE formulation is derived. An Eulerian formulation is then obtained by fixing the finite element mesh in space. A finite element program based on the Eulerian formulation has been developed. The program is used to simulate a steady state rolling process. The roll pressure distribution is compared with published experimental results. Comparisons reveal the effectiveness of the developed formulation. | ||||
