Because the tube body is deformedOnly in this way can qualified and high- qualityin a hollow condition, the wall thickness of the tubeproducts be produced. Thus, to obtain more exactwill be thinner under the stretching force (Fig. 1).solutions, the upper finite element method (FEM)The stretching force is produced by the frictionalhas been successfully used to calculate the rollingforce between the roll and steel tube, and the addi-force, owing to its advantages, such as affordabilitytional velocity speed difference between the twoand convenience.

The variation of wall thicknessElement Mesh by Upper FEMis determined by the vertical stretching force ( ten-sional force) on the tube during the stretch reducingThe principle of upper FEM is to divide the plasticprocess. The rolling force is an important parameterdeformation region of blank into numerous elements, asduring the stretching process, which provides a basisshown in Fig. 2. For symmetrical forming problems,starting from some chosen point on the line or theintersecting point on the contour boundary of the由workpiece, parallel lines can be drawn in both direc-tions. Thus, the deformed body is meshed into nu-merous loop elements with simple and normalizedcross sections, shaped by a group of lines parallel toFIg 1 Schematic diagram of working principle ofthe coordinates. The loop elements include rectan-the three-roll stretch reducergular elements and triangular elements.Foundation Item: Item Sponsored by National Natural Science Foundation of Chi中国煤化Inaization Poie onScience and Technology Project of China (200707071)Biography :ZHANG Fang ping(1971-), Female, Lctureship; E-mall: zhangfa:MYHCNMH G。, Aurz2. 20Journal of Iron and Steel Research, InternationalVol 15gular element is uniformly distributed along theboundary, and defined as ui,j, u;+1,j, wij, andw,j+1, respectively, on the basis of the serial num-ber of each line' s start number.
