Drawbead analysis
* Numerical simulation of an experimental drawbead device (used by H.D. Nine – General Motors - 1978)
* Drawing and clamping forces are studied.
* Frictional component can be avoided if the rollers are free to rotate.

Roughness transfer during skin-pass
* Latest stage of a rolling process. A periodic roughness is printed on the surface of the sheet without thickness reduction.
* Smooth sheet & rough rigid roll.

S-Rail shaped deep drawing
* Deep drawing of an “S-shaped” rail.
* The die and the punch are rigid.
* Friction is taken into account between the tools and the blank.
* Springback is computed removing the tools and using an implicit scheme.text/html2024-02-26T16:00:47+00:00Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com)Superplastic forming
http://metafor.ltas.ulg.ac.be/dokuwiki/applications/mf/superplastic?rev=1708963247&do=diff
Superplastic forming
* Superplasticity is a state in which a material is deformed well beyond its usual breaking point (high T, ultra low strain rates).
* Multisheet superplastic forming of a self-stiffened titanium structure (Sonaca).
* When pressed together, sheets got welded dur to diffusion bonding.
