Abstract
A new simulation model to deal with metal powders was developed. The feature of the proposed model is to express plastic deformation behavior of metal powders. The model is based on Advanced Distinct Element Method (ADEM), which can represent deformation behaviors of elastic materials. The change of the proposed model from ADEM is interaction force of primary particles. In order to confirm the validity of the new model, compression tests and drop tests have been carried out in experiment and simulation. In compression tests, test tablets were thinly stretched and the deformation was maintained. In drop tests, a dimple was formed on the tablet when an iron ball collides. Characteristic behaviors of metal material such as stretching the tablets and forming a dimple were also confirmed in simulation. Therefore, it is identified that the proposed model could express the behavior of metal material.
