    A co-rotational finite element formulation for the geometrically nonlinear dynamic analysis of thin-walled beam with large rotations but small strain is presented. The element developed here has two nodes with seven degrees of freedom per node. The element nodes are chosen to be located at the centroid of the end cross sections of the beam element and the centroid axis is chosen to be the reference axis. The. kinematics of the beam element is described in the current element coordinate system constructed at the current configuration of the beam element. The element nodal forces are conventional forces, moments and bimoments. Both the element deformation nodal forces and inertia nodal forces are systematically derived by consistent linearization of the fully geometrically non-linear beam theory, the d'Alembert principle and the virtual work principle in the current element coordinates. An incremental-iterative method based on the Newmark direct integration method and the Newton-Raphson method is employed here for the solution of the nonlinear equations of motion. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.

    The present invention, in accordance with the shrinking behavior of heat-melt material during cooling and demolding of molding process, presents a molding structure with electrical heating lines embedded on the surface of the molding structure which allows the structure to provide independent thermal control. By allowing the mold to control its surface temperature, the thermal stress between the heat-melt material and the mold can be eliminated and balanced, thereby preventing the heat-melt material from damage by the gripping force during demolding process.
