Engine component
To confirm the applicability of the ISM simulation to
problems in welding practices, a model of an engine
component was welded circumferentially with a press
moulded disk and a machined boss part. The engine
component model consists of 11 664 elements, 20 160
nodes and 58 824 degrees of freedom. The FEM model
of the engine component is shown in Fig. 8. The same
Itanimu2 computer employed in the calculation in the
previous section was used. The inner and outer edges of
the component are restrained by a welding jig during
welding. The amount of spring back after the jig is
removed at the completion of welding was calculated.
the calculation of the engine component was possible Engine component 2.7 h 660 MB
