Description

Stiffness matrix for finite-element analysis in metal bulk plastic forming storage and generation method
Technical field
The present invention relates to stiffness matrix for finite-element analysis in metal bulk plastic forming storage and generation method, be suitable for forging, the finite element numerical simulation of extruding, rolling, swaging equal-volume forming process.
Background technology
In commercial production, forging, extruding, the metal volume Plastic Forming manufacturing technology such as rolling support one of major technique of the national economic development and national defense construction, have extensive use in industries such as automobile, space flight and aviation, equipment manufacturing, weapons, the energy, shipbuildings.Plastic yield occurs with the metal material (blank) of (cold, warm, thermoforming) under room temperature or high temperature in volume plastic forming process exactly under forging equipment and the mould action that is installed on it thereof, and be configured as the process of the part of required form and performance, volume Plastic Forming material generally is assumed to be and just (glues) plastic material, therefore, large and violent plastic yield occurs in blank in mold cavity, have material nonlinearity, geometrical non-linearity and complicated boundary condition, finding the solution of forming process is very complicated.Can forming technology and Design of Dies be for the quality of drip molding and be shaped smoothly and have material impact, are also the keys of the energy-saving and cost-reducing and Accurate Shaping of impact.The key theory foundation of design forming technology and mould and grasp plastic yield behavior and the flowing law of metal material in mold cavity.Finite Element Method is as the important method of engineering problem numerical analysis, brought into play vital role at engineering field, metal volume plastic forming process numerical simulation method is the main method of research Plastic Deformation of Metal Materials behavior and flowing law, can obtain metal material flowing law and various field variable distribution results, the feasibility of checking technological design, parameter selection and die design schemes, and then realize the optimization optimization of forming technology and mould improving speed, quality and the reduction cost of development of product development.
Finite element analysis for the metal volume Plastic Forming Problems, at first by the plastic yield governing equation, set up the mathematical model of metal volume plastic yield mechanics problem, geometric model (mould and sex change material) is carried out finite element method discrete, set up the finite element stiffness equations, realize the numerical simulation of forming process, the numerical analysis methods such as finite element have particularly been brought into play vital role in fields such as metal forming manufacturing and structure analyses at engineering field.
The step that finite element numerical is found the solution the metal volume Plastic Forming Problems is: the CAD geometric model (geometric configuration of deformable material) of setting up problem, the CAD geometric model is carried out finite elements discrete, obtain the finite element grid model of geometric model, this grid model is comprised of the grid cell of limited quantity; The stiffness equations of each unit in the model grid model is assembled the stiffness equations of all unit, forms the non-linear global stiffness system of equations about all node speeds of grid model; By to the linearization process about the non-linear rigidity equation of node speed, obtain the linear rigidity system of equations about the node speed increment; Adopt the Newton-Raphson process of iteration to carry out iterative to velocity field.due to the node speed increment is found the solution, therefore, for a metal volume plastic forming process, curring time need to be decomposed into an even hundreds of time step up to a hundred (length), all need computing unit stiffness matrix and nodal force vector in each time step, be assembled into the global stiffness equation of node speed increment, apply velocity boundary conditions, the global stiffness equation (large linear systems) of solution node speed increment, obtain the speed correction, with the speed correction, velocity field is revised again, then repeat above-mentioned steps, velocity field is carried out iterative, until velocity field convergence, generally, at least the velocity field that needs 7 to 10 times iteration can obtain to restrain, according to the speed of convergence field that obtains, refresh distortion workpiece shape and die location, just can complete the numerical evaluation in a time step.And then carry out the interior numerical evaluation of next step-length, until reach desired deformation extent.
This shows, for the numerical simulation of metal volume plastic forming process, need to find the solution frequently global stiffness equation (large linear systems).For example for the 3-dimensional metal volume Plastic Forming Problems of medium complexity, generally need the simulation step number more than 200 times, each roughly needs 9 velocity fields of iteration in the simulation step, and each velocity field iteration just need to be found the solution large linear systems one time, if the finite element interstitial content of a metal volume Plastic Forming Problems is 50,000 (three-dimensional problems of medium complexity), just need to find the solution the large Linear side group that consisted of by 150,000 equations 1800 times.If analyze more challenge, its amount of calculation is huger.
In recent years, needs along with heavy constructions such as Grand Equipments, boats and ships, automobile and wind-powered electricity generations, increasing to demand large-scale, heavy duty metal volume Plastic Forming part, need the Problems in forming of analysis day by day complicated, physical dimension is large, node and the element number of finite element model are many, data volume is huge, the FEM (finite element) calculation inefficiency, required calculator memory increases severely, even when analyzing large-scale and ultra-large type problem, the problem of memory space inadequate often occurs, this has limited the application of finite element numerical method in METHOD IN METAL FORMING PROCESSES is analyzed greatly.
Metal volume Plastic Forming Problems not only, and much the finite element analysis of other engineering problem finally all can be summed up as and finds the solution large linear systems, and the solution efficiency of finite element depends primarily on the solution efficiency of storage, generation and the stiffness equations thereof of system of linear equations stiffness matrix.
metal volume Plastic Forming Problems finite element matrix is large-scale, banded sparse matrix, nonzeros generally concentrates on the diagonal line zone, for this situation with in order to improve counting yield, people have proposed the storage means of many conserve storage, for example, the half-band width storage means, the variable bandwidth storage means, sparse simultaneous equation pretreatment iteration method for solving etc., although these methods have reduced the storage space of stiffness matrix, but stored the part nonzero element also unavoidablely, wasted the part storage area, these methods all depend on node serial number simultaneously, need to be optimized the node serial number order, thereby also wasted computing time.Existing one-dimension variable bandwidth compression and storage method adopts one-dimension array to preserve the nonzero element of stiffness matrix by the order of row, adopt two auxiliary arrays record row number and the initial element of every row in the position of stiffness matrix array, saved storage space, avoided the node numbering optimization problem, but the auxiliary array that adopts and stiffness matrix storage array have same length, still have the problem that consumes storage space and waste computing time.
Therefore, during the engineering problems such as employing finite element analysis metal volume Plastic Forming, the Efficient Compression storage of finite element matrix element becomes problem in the urgent need to address with the generation method.

Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment, the present invention will be further described.
Fig. 3 is metal just (gluing) Plastic Forming grid model global stiffness matrix equation compression storage and generating algorithm process flow diagram.According to shown in Figure 3, just (glue) Plastic Forming grid model global stiffness matrix equation compression of metal store and the generating algorithm flow process as follows: according to geometric model and the finite element grid model of the metal forming problem that has generated, determine " the broad sense adjacent node to " of whole grid model and calculate its quantity; Open up grid model global stiffness matrix stores array A, open up non-zero submatrices row number storage array J, open up the first non-zero submatrices of every row position storage array K; All nodes in grid model are circulated, for arbitrary node i, comprise all unit of node i in the search grid model; Search comprises all nodes that all unit of node i comprise, and determines " the broad sense adjacent node to " of node i; According to the numbering that comprises node i " broad sense adjacent node to ", generating indexes array J; According to the quantity that comprises node i " broad sense adjacent node to ", generating indexes array K; Whether the circulation that judges all nodes in grid model finishes, if also do not finish, next node is repeated above-mentioned steps, until complete to all node processing in grid model.All unit in grid model are circulated, generate the stiffness matrix U of each unit, place non-zero submatrices be expert at non-zero submatrices before and the quantity of nonzero element are calculated in the position of each element of judging unit stiffness matrix non-zero submatrices at place in grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix; The quantity of all nonzero elements before the element of the grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix that the computing unit Element of Stiffness Matrix is corresponding is expert at; The serial number that the grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix element that the computing unit Element of Stiffness Matrix is corresponding is expert at; The Position Number of grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix element in grid model global stiffness matrix stores array A that the computing unit Element of Stiffness Matrix is corresponding, according to the create-rule of grid model global stiffness matrix, with this element stiffness matrix element grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix storage array of packing into.Judge in this cell matrix whether all elements calculates complete, if not yet complete, the next element in this unit is carried out above-mentioned processing, until all elements in this unit is disposed.Then judge whether to still have the unit that does not generate stiffness matrix, if also have, carry out the cycle calculations of next unit, until the stiffness matrix of all unit is complete according to the above-mentioned steps generation, thereby obtain upper triangular matrix and the stiffness equations thereof of whole grid model global stiffness matrix.At last, adopt lax pre-service volume gradient method altogether, find the solution the global stiffness equation of whole grid model, obtain the Incremental of velocity field, then utilize this Incremental to refresh the velocity field of grid model in this moment.
In grid model, the quantity of " broad sense adjacent node to " is determined by the topological structure of grid model, any two nodes that belong to same unit can form one " broad sense adjacent node to ", therefore " broad sense adjacent node to " quantity determines, calculate exactly in whole grid model, the unduplicated node of same unit that belongs to is to quantity, for the grid model of different units type, determine that the principle of " broad sense adjacent node to " is identical, but concrete grammar is different.
Because non-zero submatrices in the global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix of " broad sense adjacent node to " and grid model is corresponding one by one, can be determined by the quantity of " broad sense adjacent node to " quantity of non-zero submatrices in global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix and then the quantity of definite nonzero element.Yet because the global stiffness matrix of grid model adopts the upper triangular matrix storage, so each non-zero submatrices on diagonal line also only needs the upper triangle submatrix of storage.Be the dimension of the problem of finding the solution if establish m, the nonzero element of diagonal line non-zero submatrices is m (m+1)/2, and off-diagonal non-zero submatrices data are m 2, can determine thus the quantity of the nonzero element of grid model global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix.
The grid model that consists of take eight node hexahedral elements by limited quantity is illustrated above-mentioned computation process as example.
For the grid model that is comprised of eight node hexahedral elements, its " broad sense adjacent node to " is divided into three types, and the one, limit adjacent node pair; The 2nd, face adjacent node pair; The 3rd, body adjacent node pair.The limit adjacent node is to being determined by the quantity of adjacent node line in the unit, corresponding one of every line " broad sense adjacent node to "; The right quantity of face adjacent node determines by the quantity of elemental area, and each face has two diagonal line, corresponding one of every face diagonal " broad sense adjacent node to "; For body adjacent node pair, there are four body diagonals each unit, corresponding one of every body diagonal " broad sense adjacent node to ".If N 1Be number of nodes (being the node of node and self generation to quantity), N 2Be the quantity (being the right quantity of limit adjacent node) of adjacent node line in grid model, N 3(each face has two face adjacent nodes pair, 2N for the face number of unit in grid model 3The quantity that the presentation surface adjacent node is right), N 4(there are two 4 individual adjacent nodes pair, 4N in each unit for the quantity of unit in grid model 4Expression body adjacent node right quantity), the quantity of grid model " broad sense adjacent node to " is:
S SM=N 1+N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4
N wherein 1Be the right quantity of node that node self consists of, the type node to the non-zero submatrices line number of correspondence be listed as number unanimously, be positioned on diagonal line, so N 1Quantity for the diagonal line non-zero submatrices.
For three-dimensional problem (m=3), the data that need to store of each diagonal line non-zero submatrices are m (m+1)/2=6, and the data that the off-diagonal non-zero submatrices need to be stored are m 2=9.Therefore the quantity of the global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix nonzero element of grid model is:
S NZ=6×N 1+9×(N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4)

S SM=N 1+(N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4)=8+(12+2×6+1×4)=36
The global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix nonzero element quantity that grid model shown in Figure 4 need to be preserved is:
S NZ=6×N 1+9×(N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4)=6×8+9×28=300
In like manner, for the grid model that is consisted of by two hexahedral elements shown in accompanying drawing 5, N 1=12, N 2=20, N 3=11, N 4=2.When adopting the upper triangular matrix storage, its non-zero submatrices quantity is:
S SM=N 1+(N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4)=12+(20+2×11+2×4)=62
The global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix nonzero element quantity that grid model shown in Figure 5 need to be preserved is:
S NZ=6×N 1+9×(N 2+2×N 3+4×N 4)=6×12+9×50=522
Determined the quantity of non-zero submatrices and nonzero element, the storage space of the global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix of distribution network lattice model exactly, and then realize the storage of the global stiffness matrix upper triangular matrix of grid model.
The below illustrates the compression storage advantage of global stiffness matrix of the present invention take the global stiffness matrix of the grid model that is made of two hexahedral elements shown in Figure 5 as example.
The data length of the J array in global stiffness matrix storage method involved in the present invention is the quantity of global stiffness matrix non-zero submatrices, i.e. S SM=62, and the data length of K array is element number 12, the global stiffness matrix stores data volume of this grid model is 62+12=74.If adopt CSR(Compressed Sparse Row format commonly used at present) the form storage means, the data length of its J array is the quantity of all nonzero elements, i.e. S NZThe data length of=522, K array is the dimension of global stiffness equation, is 12 * 3=36, and therefore, total amount of data is 558.If only compare two auxiliary array J and K, global stiffness matrix storage method involved in the present invention is compared with the CSR method, and the storage space of its saving is: (558-74)/558=87%.If floating type array A adopts single precision floating datum to preserve, global stiffness matrix storage method involved in the present invention is compared with the CSR method, and the space that the global stiffness matrix stores is saved is: 1-(74+552 * 2)/(558+552 * 2)=29%.As seen, for example shown in Figure 5, the storage space that the present invention saves auxiliary array J and K reaches 87%, saves global stiffness matrix stores space 29%, the space-saving successful.

By as seen from Table 1, the shared storage space of compression and storage method of the present invention is far smaller than partly the storage space with storage means, when the element number of forging grid model is 1565, and conserve storage 93.2%, when the element number of forging grid model is 8530, conserve storage 97.4%.As seen, with the increase of grid model node or element number, it is increasing that storage space is saved ratio.This is main because compression and storage method of the present invention has only been preserved the global stiffness nonzeros, in the global stiffness matrix, the quantity of every delegation nonzero element is only relevant with the quantity of the broad sense adjacent node of this row corresponding node, and irrelevant with the number of nodes of integral grid model.In other words, for compression and storage method of the present invention, storage space is only relevant with the line number increase of global stiffness matrix with the proportional relation of number of nodes, is linear trends of change.And for partly being with storage means, the storage space of every delegation is determined by the half-band width of global stiffness matrix, increases with number of nodes, and half-band width is also increase thereupon generally, and the data that the line number of global stiffness matrix and every row need to be stored all increase to some extent, thereby present the para-curve variation tendency.Therefore, along with the increase of number of nodes, partly being quadratic function with the required storage space of storage means increases, and the required storage space of compression and storage method of the present invention is the linear function increase, and its space-saving advantage is more remarkable.
Aspect counting yield, herein only take the global stiffness equation single calculation efficient of finding the solution a certain moment in forging process as example, half-and-half band storage direct solution and two kinds of methods of compression of the present invention storage iterative compare, and result is as shown in subordinate list 2.
Table 2 is that the solution efficiency of grid model when different storage means of different units and number of nodes compares
As can be seen from the table, when the element number of forging grid model was 1565, counting yield improved 69.4%, when the element number of forging grid model is 8530, improved counting yield 88.3%.As seen, the efficient of compression storage iterative of the present invention is far above the efficient of half band storage direct solution, and number of nodes is more, and solution efficiency improves more obvious.Therefore, the method that proposes of the present invention is particularly suitable for the grid model unit and interstitial content is large, the finite element numerical analysis of the forging of finding the solution of iterating, extruding, the metal volume Problems in forming such as rolling.
