For realistic simulation, the temperature dependent mechanical properties need to be implemented from ambient temperature to temperatures above the flow temperature. Standard test methods are insufficient for characterization in the entire temperature range because close to the flow temperature the material is too soft for tensile tests and too stiff for rheometry. Therefore, an optimization strategy is developed, that determines unknown material parameters by testing in welding simulations. The unknown parameters are iteratively adjusted to minimize the mismatch between computed and measured set-paths. Thus, important process characteristics are calculated realistically, enabling the computer aided assessment of the weld quality.}, subject = {Kunststoffschweißen}, language = {en} } @misc{KaesbauerSchmailzlLooseetal., author = {K{\"a}sbauer, Johannes and Schmailzl, Anton and Loose, Tobias and Hierl, Stefan}, title = {Thermo-Mechanical Modeling of Quasi-Simultaneous Laser Transmission Welding using LS-DYNA with Focus on Accuracy of Heat Input Calculation}, series = {Technology Day 2020 - Plastics on the test rig, Traboch, 04.03.2020}, journal = {Technology Day 2020 - Plastics on the test rig, Traboch, 04.03.2020}, language = {en} } @misc{KaesbauerSchmailzlLooseetal., author = {K{\"a}sbauer, Johannes and Schmailzl, Anton and Loose, Tobias and Hierl, Stefan}, title = {Potentials of the EFG-Method for Modeling Quasi-Simultaneous Laser Transmission Welding Considering the Melt Flow}, series = {Simulationsforum 2019 - Schweißen und W{\"a}rmebehandlung, Weimar}, journal = {Simulationsforum 2019 - Schweißen und W{\"a}rmebehandlung, Weimar}, language = {en} } @incollection{SchmailzlHuentelmannLooseetal., author = {Schmailzl, Anton and H{\"u}ntelmann, Sven and Loose, Tobias and K{\"a}sbauer, Johannes and Maiwald, Frederik and Hierl, Stefan}, title = {Potentials of the ALE-Method for Modeling Plastics Welding Processes, in Particular for the Quasi-Simultaneous Laser Transmission Welding}, series = {Mathematical Modelling of Weld Phenomena 12}, booktitle = {Mathematical Modelling of Weld Phenomena 12}, editor = {Sommitsch, Christof and Enzinger, Norbert and Mayr, Peter}, publisher = {Verlag der Technischen Universit{\"a}t Graz}, address = {Graz}, doi = {10.3217/978-3-85125-615-4-51}, pages = {965 -- 975}, abstract = {The Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian-Method (ALE-Method) offers the possibility to model the quasi-simultaneous laser transmission welding of plastics, in which a squeeze-flow of molten plastic occurs. It is of great interest to get a deeper understanding of the fluid-structure-interactions in the welding zone, since the occurring squeeze-flow transports heated material out of the joining zone, causinga temperature decrease inside.In addition, the numerical modelling offers the possibility to investigate the flow conditions in the joining zone. The aim of this article is to show the potentials of the ALE-Method to simulatethe quasi-simultaneous laser transmission welding with the commercially available software LS-DYNA. The central challenge is to realize a bi-directionalthermo-mechanically coupled simulation,which considers the comparatively high thermal expansion and calculates the interactions of solid and melted plastic correctly. Finally, the potentials of the ALE element formulations for the mathematical description of welding processesare shown, especially for those with a squeeze-flow.}, language = {en} }
