Streszczenie:

This paper deals with the evaluation of the effects of initial stresses developed during the pressurized casting process. The stresses are induced by the external pressure applied to the cast and developed due to thermal loading. The effect of the stresses is considered as a second order effect by means of investigating the influence of the ‘geometric’ or ‘initial stresses’ stiffness matrix on the response of the cast. The problem formulation is done in the updated Lagrangian (UL) frame. An implicit time integration scheme is applied to solve the transient thermomechanical problem in a staggered form. The constitutive mechanical model is elasto-viscoplastic with hardening incorporated with a Mises yield function. The finite element method is employed and a few 3D numerical examples are presented.

Streszczenie:

During mould filling due to decreasing of liquidus temperature takes place solidification pocess. The paper deals mostly with a presentation of an application of a microstructural solidification model. The Navier Stokes equation describing the flow problem is solved using Taylor Galerkin method.
