The traditional Lagrangian and Eulerian formulations in finite elements posses some inherent difficulties when used in simulation of metal-forming processes or general finite strain problems. A more general method of formulation, the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE), is developed to overcome such

β¦ Synopsis
An automatic remeshing scheme has been developed to enable finite element simulation of even complicated forming processes. It has been demonstrated that for many practical applications the incorporation of this technique in the existing computer codes is indispensable not only for more accurate solutions but sometimes just for striving to obtain solutions. In order to avoid the tedious procedures of, e.g. interrupting the analysis, performing rediscretization, mapping of current state variables and preparing the new set of boundary conditions, methods for automating the remeshing procedures and the related accuracy problems have been presented. Several examples, such as a heading process, an extrusion process through a square die, and a oneblow impression-die forging process with flash have been successfully tested out with this automatic remeshing scheme.
