Multiphysics Process Simulation of the Electromagnetic-Supported Laser Beam Welding

M. Bachmann, V. Avilov, A. Gumenyuk, and M. Rethmeier
BAM Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing
Berlin, Germany

The article deals with the magnetically-supported high-power full-penetration laser beam welding of aluminum. A stationary simulation was conducted accounting for the effects of natural convection, Marangoni convection and solid-liquid phase transition as well as an electromagnetic ... Read More

Finite Element Prediction of Laser-Material Interaction Using COMSOL Multiphysics®

E.C. Chevallier [1], V. Bruyère [1], P. Namy [1],
[1] SIMTEC, Grenoble, France

Surface engineering is a key technology used in a wide range of sectors in industry. Among other techniques, it involves adding functionality to a surface. This can be performed by creating a specific topography to a surface using laser texturing. The objective of the work presented in ... Read More

3-D COMSOL Analysis of Extruder Dies

E. Solomon[1] and V. Mathew[1]
[1]Arcada University of Applied Sciences, Espoo, Finland

Three-dimensional flow analysis was performed by using COMSOL Multiphysics Chemical Engineering Module for the purpose of analyzing the flow properties and finding out the operating points of a test domain. Using material property table for an exemplary melt of LDPE (Low-Density ... Read More

Thermal Model for Single Discharge EDM Process Using COMSOL Multiphysics

K. Gajjar[1], U. Maradia[2], K. Wegener[2]
[1]Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, Maharshtra, India
[2]Institute for Process Tools and Manufacturing (IWF), Zurich, Switzerland

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a non-conventional process used for machining electrically conducting materials. In die sink-EDM, sparks are generated between tool and workpiece resulting in heating of both electrode surfaces and creating a melt pool of metal which leads to ... Read More

Multiphysics Modeling of the Graphite Electrode Joint in Electric Arc Furnaces for Steel Recycling

N. May [1], M. Waldner [2],
[1] GrafTech International Holdings, Inc., Independence, OH, USA
[2] Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, USA

Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) use graphite electrodes to strike an arc to melt scrap steel, recycling it for further use. These graphite electrodes oxidize and are consumed over time. To maintain operation new electrodes are attached to others via a joint of complex geometry and fed ... Read More

Optimization of Welding Parameters using 3D Heat and Fluid Flow Modeling of Keyhole Laser Welding

S. Gaied [1], M. Courtois [2], M. Carin [2], P. Le Masson [2]
[1] ArcelorMittal Global R&D, Montataire, France
[2] LUniv. Bretagne-Sud, Lorient, France

A Laser-welded blank (LWB) consists of steels of different thicknesses and/or grades welded together to produce a single blank prior to the forming process. LWB are mostly used in the automotive field where the high productivity of the laser welding process is an advantage. Numerical ... Read More

Modelling Thermal Capillary Effects and Flow in the Molten Pool During Selective Laser Melting

Habimana Jean Willy [1],
[1] National University of Singapore, Singapore

Laser additive manufacturing has become an interesting field of engineering which is revolutionizing industrial processes. Selective Laser melting (SLM) is a widely used additive manufacturing technique for 3D printing of metal structures. This process has a particular complexity in ... Read More

Glass Transition of ABS in 3D Printing

M. Rahman [1], N. R. Schott [2], L. K. Sadhu [3],
[1] North South University, Dhaka, Bangladesh
[2] Department of Plastics Engineering, University of Massachusetts - Lowell, Lowell, MA, USA
[3] IRays Teknology Ltd., Dhaka, Bangladesh

In a commercial 3D printer head, plastic ribbon passes through a hot nozzle of an extruder to dispense liquid plastic droplets to construct the model. In this paper a 2D axisymmetric model of a 3D head is considered to study the secondary transition change from below the glass ... Read More

2D Axial-Symmetric Model For Fluid Flow And Heat Transfer In The Melting And Resolidification Of A Vertical Cylinder

S. Morville[1], M. Carin[1], M. Muller[2], M. Gharbi[2], P. Peyre[2], D. Carron[1], P. Le Masson[1], and R. Fabro[2]
[1]Laboratoire LIMATB, Université de Bretagne Sud, Lorient , France
[2]Laboratoire PIMM, Arts et Métiers ParisTech, Paris, France

Laser direct deposition is a process, different from molding or machining, which allows the producing of fully densified and operational components. This technique involves injecting metal powder through a coaxial nozzle into a melt pool obtained by a moving laser beam. The final object ... Read More

A Numerical Heat Transfer Analysis on an Implantable Phase-Change Actuated Peristaltic Micropump
