Abstract

The Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of an Aluminium shaping tool on Titanium workpiece is presented. A detailed analysis of aluminium tool and titanium workpiece was conducted using Full factorial method and FEA technique. The finite element analysis was carried out using Explicit dynamic tool of the ANSYS workbench software. In recent years, Finite element analysis (FEA) have become widely used in research and industrial applications because of the advancements in computational efficiency and speed. In predicting cutting force of the aluminum tool a mathematical model was developed using Full factorial method and multiple linear regression technique.The developed mathematical model was adequate with R2 and adj R2 values of 98.0% and 89.0% respectively. The predicted R2 value was 0.89.The maximum and minimum stress values of the cutting tool are 495.42Mpa and 7.71Mpa respectively. Also, a maximum deformation of 79.49mm and strain of 3.95mm were obtained for the workpiece.
Keywords: Finite Element Analysis, Full factorial method, shaping tool and multiple linear regression.
