FEM-Based Analysis of Micro-Structure Parameters for Roll Forming on Aluminum Alloy Sheet

Article Preview

Abstract:

Micro-structured surfaces with drag reduction, desorption, and excellent optical performance are widely used in the field of automotive, aerospace, marine applications. Therefore, the manufacturing of the micro-structure on the metal surface is of high impotance. Although the processing methods for micro-patterning of surfaces have progressed in recent years, micro-structure processing is still not used on large metal surfaces. In this paper, a method of roll forming micro-structure on the plate surface is proposed. A simulation model for micro-structure roll forming (MRF) was presented by using three-dimensional finite element method (FEM). The strain and stress, and the displacements caused by micro-structure were analyzed. The results provide theoretical guidance for the design of different micro-structures and the sequence of their processing.
