Finite element analysis of injection molding
Abstract
Injection molding of plastics involves the transient monisothermal flow of a molten polymer into a cold-walled cavity, under high pressures, where it is cooled and solidified. The material at different locations of the final part experiences greatly different thermomechanical histories and as a result exhibits anisotropic properties in both the flow and gapwise directions. The anisotropy is associated with molecular orientation and structure …
