Rolling operation

Objective- To simulate the rolling operation on a workpiece made of copper

For this challenge, you will have to simulate the rolling operation on a workpiece made of copper. The model will be provided to you. Increase the length of the workpiece by 60mm and decrease its size on both sides by 8mm. Run the simulation for 14 steps and you can give small but random values( similar to the ones mentioned in the video) for the displacement. Ensure that the edge of the workpiece is displaced by 90mm.

Material used-

Following changes were made to the model and the results obtained were as follows-

Equivalent stress for the workpiece

max-2399.2 MPa min-0.004 MPa

Equivalent Plastic strain for the workpiece

Directional Deformation in the Z axis for the workpiece

Prove that the workpiece has displaced by 90mm

In the last image it is clearly shown that the maximum directional deformation is 90mm along Y axis.
