Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of metal electromagnetic high-speed forming manufacturing technology, and more specifically, relates to a method and system for acquiring an electromagnetic forming actuator. Background Technology

[0002] At room temperature, when forming metal workpieces using traditional forming methods such as stamping, hydraulic forming, and spinning, there are problems such as low forming limits and poor forming quality. Metal workpieces are prone to defects such as wrinkling, cracking, and springback. Electromagnetic forming, through the principle of electromagnetic induction, drives metal workpieces to produce high-speed deformation. As a high-speed forming technology, electromagnetic forming can break through the forming limits of metal materials at room temperature and improve forming quality and precision.

[0003] However, due to the extremely short duration of electromagnetic load application, far shorter than the workpiece deformation time, most of the plastic deformation of the workpiece in electromagnetic forming is dominated by inertia. This significantly increases the uncontrollability of the workpiece deformation behavior. Furthermore, the high non-uniformity of electromagnetic load distribution significantly reduces the uniformity of workpiece deformation, exacerbating the risk of localized breakage. The high-speed collisions and rebounds between the workpiece and the mold further reduce the forming quality, greatly limiting the application range of electromagnetic forming. Therefore, current research on electromagnetic forming force field control is of great significance for improving workpiece wall thickness distribution, increasing film application accuracy, and enhancing material formability. Changing the coil structure is the most direct way to alter the electromagnetic force field, but it only improves the uniformity of electromagnetic force distribution in some areas, failing to fundamentally address the problem of non-uniform electromagnetic force distribution in electromagnetic forming. This increases the cost and difficulty of coil winding. Uniform pressure coil structures can significantly improve the uniformity of electromagnetic distribution, but they suffer from arcing issues between the conductive channel and the workpiece, and are limited by the size of the formed workpiece. Adding a metal block around the coil to form an electromagnetic forming actuator that applies electromagnetic force to the workpiece can effectively improve the controllability of the electromagnetic force. However, the introduction of the metal block will reduce the energy utilization efficiency of the forming system and reduce the uniformity of the electromagnetic force distribution due to gaps in the electromagnetic forming actuator. Therefore, how to optimize the structure of the electromagnetic forming actuator is a key problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0066] In the description of the embodiments in this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0067] The embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] Example 1

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, this application provides a method for obtaining an electromagnetic shaping actuator, including the following steps:

[0070] Step S1: Based on the structure of the electromagnetic forming actuator, the structural parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are divided into basic structural parameters and bottom morphology structural parameters; specifically: as follows... Figure 2 The diagram shows a typical electromagnetic forming actuator structure for a 458mm flat panel. The electromagnetic forming actuator includes a coil and a metal block with a gap. First, the structural parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are divided into basic structural parameters and morphological parameters. A schematic diagram of the basic structural parameters is shown below. Figure 3 As shown;

[0071] like Figure 3 As shown, the basic structural parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator include the inner diameter of the electromagnetic forming actuator. The outer diameter of the lower half of the electromagnetic forming actuator Outer diameter of the upper half lower half height and number of coil turns n ; Lower half outer diameter of electromagnetic forming actuator The effective area of ​​the electromagnetic forming actuator on the workpiece is related to the area of ​​the actuator itself, which is fixed at 25 mm. This is taken into account factors such as the strength and efficiency of the electromagnetic forming actuator. Fixed at 30mm;

[0072] Step S2: Using a low-computation-cost two-dimensional axisymmetric model, with the goal of improving the energy utilization efficiency of the electromagnetic forming actuator while ensuring the mechanical structural strength of the electromagnetic forming actuator, the basic structural parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are determined.

[0073] More specifically, since the electromagnetic forming actuator has a gap in its circumferential direction and is not a strictly axisymmetric geometry, a complete three-dimensional model is usually required for simulation analysis. However, the parametric modeling process of the three-dimensional model is complex, requires large computational resources, and is time-consuming. Therefore, by setting special boundary conditions, the three-dimensional model of the actuator can be approximated as a two-dimensional axisymmetric model, which greatly simplifies the modeling process, reduces the number of meshes, and improves the efficiency of optimizing basic structural parameters. According to the working principle of the electromagnetic forming actuator, the gap serves to cut off the circumferential eddy current induced on the inner side and conduct it to the outer side to form circumferential eddy current, thereby realizing the renormalization of the magnetic circuit. Therefore, in the two-dimensional axisymmetric model, if the internal current of the magnet cross section is set to 0, the real effect of the electromagnetic forming actuator on the redistribution of the magnetic field can be approximately reproduced, as shown in Figures 4(a) and 4(b).

[0074] A simplified two-dimensional axisymmetric model of an electromagnetic forming actuator, as follows: Figure 5 As shown, considering factors such as actual processing conditions, workpiece forming requirements, and the strength limitations of the actuator itself, the inner diameter of the electromagnetic forming actuator is... The value ranges from 4mm to 20mm, and the outer diameter is... The value range is 30mm~45mm and the number of coil turns. n With values ​​ranging from 4 to 20, the magnetic energy utilization rate of the electromagnetic shaping actuator is calculated using the parametric scanning function in both the frequency and time domains of the two-dimensional axisymmetric model. and the electromagnetic force impulse on the workpiece ,in, , Represents the target area (e.g.) Figure 3 (As shown) Effective magnetic energy; Represents the total magnetic energy of the system, and the impulse of the electromagnetic force. The integral of the average electromagnetic force on the workpiece over the forming time period; the magnetic energy utilization efficiency of the electromagnetic forming actuator. and the electromagnetic force impulse on the workpiece Determine the inner diameter of the electromagnetic forming actuator with the maximum as the target. , outer diameter and number of coil turns n ;

[0075] Step S3: Based on the workpiece deformation process, target forming shape, and electromagnetic forming force field requirements, design the bottom morphology function of the electromagnetic forming actuator, determine the undetermined optimization parameters and value range in the morphology function, and determine the typical deformed workpiece configuration.

[0076] like Figure 6As shown, the workpiece is formed from a flat workpiece into the target shape. The shape is complex and varied. In order to determine the performance parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator on workpieces of different shapes, the deformation configuration of the workpiece is first parameterized.

[0077] First, based on the forming process and target shape of the workpiece, the deformed workpiece is simplified to an axisymmetric shape, and its cross-sectional shape expression is as follows: ,in, The magnitude of the axial deformation of the workpiece; Represents the maximum deformation at the center of the workpiece, such as Figure 7 As shown, by adjusting The magnitude of the value simulates different degrees of deformation of the workpiece; r This represents the distance from the center of the workpiece; The maximum radius representing the deformation range of the workpiece is selected based on a typical deformable workpiece configuration. The value range of ; according to this embodiment, the forming process of the 458mm flat workpiece, The value range of is [-5, 15], where, The values ​​in [-5, 0], [0, 5], [5, 10], and [10, 15] accounted for 30.3%, 60.1%, 9.6%, and 0.2% respectively; [selected] Workpieces with diameters of -5, 0, 5, and 10 mm are typical deformable workpiece configurations.

[0078] Further determining the electromagnetic forming force field requirements, and based on these requirements, the bottom morphology function, undetermined optimization parameters, and their value ranges for the electromagnetic forming actuator are preliminarily determined. The bottom morphology parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are obtained as follows: , , ;in, and These are the bottom topography functions in the radial and circumferential directions of the electromagnetic forming actuator, respectively; a , b , c , d These are the structural control function parameters for the electromagnetic forming actuator; It is the circumferential angle; This is the distance from the center of the workpiece; b This refers to the distance from the lowest point of the lower half of the electromagnetic forming actuator to the center of the workpiece; simultaneously, to ensure the mechanical strength of the electromagnetic forming actuator and further improve the flexibility of magnetic field distribution control, a [missing information] is introduced. ,like Figure 8 As shown, This indicates the maximum thickness reduction of the lower half of the electromagnetic forming actuator;

[0079] Therefore, there are a total of five variables used to determine the bottom morphology of the electromagnetic forming actuator, namely: a , b , c , d , ,in, b , c , d , As independent variables, a The size is determined by boundary conditions: when = At that time, the maximum movement of the electromagnetic forming actuator mesh is To determine;

[0080] Step S4: Using the Latin hypercube sampling method, the bottom morphology parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are sampled. Using a computationally expensive 3D model, the weighted average values ​​of the magnetic field distribution uniformity and magnetic energy efficiency of the electromagnetic forming actuators with different bottom morphologies on typical workpiece configurations are calculated. The nonlinear functional relationship between the bottom morphology parameters and performance parameters is fitted using a neural network to establish a multi-objective optimization model. With the goal of improving the magnetic field uniformity and magnetic energy efficiency, one or more sets of optimal bottom morphology parameters are selected, and the performance parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are calculated to verify the optimization effect. If the optimization effect does not meet expectations, the bottom morphology function and the configuration of the typical deformed workpiece are redesigned.

[0081] More specifically, the bottom structure of the electromagnetic forming actuator has a complex influence on the magnetic field distribution of the workpiece, involving multiple morphology control parameters. It is difficult to determine the optimal structure of the electromagnetic forming actuator through parameter scanning. To efficiently optimize the structural parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator under multi-dimensional parameters, this embodiment employs the Latin hypercube sampling method. Within a given range, the morphology parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator are sampled. Compared to simple random sampling or parameterized scanning, the Latin hypersampling method can cover the entire parameter sample space as much as possible with a limited number of samples. Considering the limitations of the electromagnetic forming actuator's mechanical strength and actual processing conditions, etc. b , c , d , The value ranges of the parameters are shown in the table below;

[0082] Table 1

[0083]

[0084] Within the aforementioned value range, 100 sets of data were sampled, representing 100 electromagnetic forming actuator shapes. For each electromagnetic forming actuator shape, a three-dimensional simulation model was established for four typical workpiece configurations, such as... Figure 9 As shown; in this embodiment of the application, the uniformity of magnetic field distribution is selected. and magnetic energy efficiency The forming performance of the electromagnetic forming actuator is evaluated by the following expression: , ,in, Indicates the magnetic energy efficiency of the target region; The total magnetic energy of the system is represented by the weighted average of the magnetic field distribution uniformity and efficiency of the electromagnetic forming actuator for four typical workpiece configurations, which serves as the index of magnetic field distribution uniformity and efficiency value for each shape of electromagnetic forming actuator; the weighting coefficients are... The proportions of values ​​within the ranges of [-5,0], [0,5], [5,10], and [10,15] are 30.3%, 60.1%, 9.6%, and 0.2%, respectively; the calculation results of the three-dimensional electromagnetic analysis model provide a template for neural network fitting.

[0085] Step S5: Establish a three-dimensional electromagnetic-structural coupling analysis model. Based on the simulation results and experimental results, compare the deformation-related performance parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator before and after optimization to further verify the optimization effect. If the expected effect is not achieved, redesign the bottom morphology function and the configuration of typical deformed workpieces.

[0086] More specifically, in this embodiment, a feedforward neural network structure is used to establish four electromagnetic shaping actuator structural parameters and two optimization indices. and The mapping relationship between them is structured as follows: Figure 10 As shown, it consists of an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. The number of neurons in the input layer corresponds to the number of variables in the research object. The hidden layer contains multiple layers of neurons, while the output layer consists of a single neuron, outputting the final prediction result transmitted through the hidden layer. Based on 100 sets of calculation results samples from the 3D simulation model, two models capable of predicting the uniformity of magnetic field distribution were successfully constructed. and electromagnetic forming actuator efficiency Neural networks.

[0087] Based on the mapping relationship between the bottom morphology parameters of the electromagnetic forming actuator and the two performance indicators learned by the aforementioned neural network, a corresponding multi-objective optimization model is further constructed, with the magnetic field distribution uniformity index as the key factor. Minimize the mean and the efficiency mean With the goal of maximizing, the optimal combination of morphological parameters for the electromagnetic forming actuator is sought. A multi-objective optimization model is used. A genetic algorithm is used to solve the Pareto optimal solution of the multi-objective model;

[0088] In the optimal solution set, select one or more sets of bottom morphology parameters of the electromagnetic shaping actuator, and calculate their magnetic field distribution performance parameters respectively. and If the optimization effect meets the expected indicators, then a three-dimensional electromagnetic-structural coupling simulation analysis model is established, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the deformation results of the workpiece are calculated. Based on the workpiece deformation results in the simulation and the experimental results, the reliability of optimizing the performance of the electromagnetic forming actuator is further verified.
