The purpare of this research is to develope a FEM program for analyzing solidification processes of axisymmetic casting, considering phase changes and the contact between the metal and mold. Temperture recovery method is employed for considering the phase changes releasing the latent heat. A gap element is employed for modeling the interface between the model and metal in finding deformed shapes. In order to verify the developed program, an axisymmetric aluminum casting processes is simulated. Temperature distribution, phase front position, and shrinkaga and porosity creation are compared with measurement, FIDAP results, and ANSYS results, and good agreements are examined.

Adiabatic blanking is a method to improve productivity through an autocatalytic cycle that occurs repeatedly through plastic deformation and thermal softening caused by impact energy. In this study, an axisymmetric analysis model comprising a punch, die, holder, and specimen was developed to confirm the temperature and deformation characteristics caused by an impact load. Through this, the impact energy, diameter of the punch, gap between the punch and die, and the effect of the fillet were analyzed. Because this process occurs in a very short time, adiabatic analysis can be performed using the explicit time-integration method. The analysis, confirmed that it is necessary to design a structure capable of increasing the local temperature and plastic deformation by controlling the impact energy, working area, gap, and the fillet.

An axisymmetric shell element which includes the effects of the meridional and circumferential cable prestresses is developed. It is coded for personal computer by the maximum use of axisymmetic properties and the dynamic analysis is performed under the seismic exitations. A ring element is used to fully utilize the characteristics of the axisymmetric shell. The eigenvalue solutions using 20 elements under the initial prestresses are in good agreement with the exact solutions. The results of the seismic analysis show that the radial deflection under the meridional prestress is a little larger than that under the circumferential prestress. The finite element model developed in this study can be very useful to the design applications.
