CHAPTER 18 307 Demonstration of Springback
Introduction Significant permanent deformation and large strains occur during the forming step by moving a cylindrical rigid body into the metal structure. The metal structure springs back upon removal of the cylindrical rigid body using the contact table definition.
Reference Solution MSC.Marc 2005r3 will be used to create a reference solution.
FEM Solutions The finite element model is shown in Figure 18-1. There are two contact bodies: one deformable and one rigid body. BCBODY BSURF ... BCBODY

The deformable contact body is simply a collection of mutually exclusive elements and their associated nodes. The rigid cylindrical body is defined using 2-D NURBS line. Furthermore, the BCTABLE entries shown below identify that these bodies can touch each other. Since the master body is a rigid one, this actually means that the deformable body is the slave one.

During the springback analysis, the contact forces on the deformable body due to the contact with the rigid body are removed immediately. It is done using BCMOVE option. To prevent the two bodies cylinder reclaims contact, a new BCTABLE has to be defined that does not include the cylinder. BCMOVE BCTABLE

Here the PFNT option is selected to update the stiffness matrix during every recycle using the Newton-Raphson iteration strategy, and the default displacement convergence tolerances will be used. The simulation process is controlled by the case control section. The first step is the forming process and the second one is the springback analysis: BCONTACT=0 SPC = 2 STEP 1 TITLE=Forming Step NLPARM = 1 BCONTACT = 1 LOAD = 1
CHAPTER 18 309 Demonstration of Springback
STEP 2 TITLE=Springback Step NLPARM = 2 BCONTACT = 2
BCONTACT=0 is meant to bring both bodies just in contact. Since there is no explicit external load applied in this analysis, a dummy LOAD is introduced in the case control parameters.
The deformed structure plot (magnification factor 1.0) is shown in Figure 18-2 along with the von Misses stress contour. The maximum stresses are located at the expected location.

The deformation after the springback analysis is shown in Figure 18-3. There is significant permanent deformation during the forming process as obviously seen from this figure. The von Misses stresses of the residual stresses are also plotted.

The displacement of point A is plotted versus time (percentage of load) in Figure 18-4 illustrating the elastic springback upon unloading the structure. This behavior is compared with a reference plot obtained with MSC.Marc 2005r3. The result of MD Nastran matches the referenced one very nicely. X-Displacement (in) Point A

Displacement Plot for Point A During Forming and Springback Step
Modeling Tips Force control applied via a control node associated with the rigid cylinder may be used instead of displacement (or equivalently velocity) control. Using this technique, the release of the load requires less difficulty with the contact table (please see nug_18b.dat). In terms of CPU time, removing the rigid body from contact table is more efficient since there is no need to do contact manipulation (please see nug_18c.dat).
