Abstract
The paper describes some recent developments in finite element and particle methods for analysis of a wide range of bulk forming processes. The developments include new stabilized linear triangles and tetrahedra using finite calculus and a new procedure combining particle methods [...]

Die-casting is a casting method suitable for mass production because it can accurately form complicated shapes. However, when the mold is filled with the molten metal, casting cavities (gas porosity) are generated due to air entrainment, and the strength of the product varies. In [...]Abstract
Particle methods such as the SPH and MPS methods have problems because it is difficult to treat curved bottom surfaces such as seabed surfaces accurately. In this study, regarding this problem, the curved bottom surfaces’ treatments have been improved using a coordinate transformation [...]
