Motivation:
- General tool for the simulation of WAAM processes is not available
Objective:
-
Development of a manufacturing simulation environment based on the finite element method
Solution approach:
-
Theory: Basic continuum mechanical equations (open systems/contact); material model development/identification
-
Experiment: Thermomechanical pressure tests; temperature and deformation development; determination of thermal parameters
-
Numerics: Element activation strategy; heat supply model; complex boundary conditions; coupling to radiation simulation (time-adaptive)
