Plane Strain Analysis of Sheet Metal with Arbitrary Forming Conditions

임의의 성형조건을 갖는 박판의 평면변형율 해석

The plane strain analysis for simulating the stretch/draw forming operation with an arbitrarily-shaped tool profile is introduced. An implicit, incremental, updated Lagrangian formulation with a rigid-viscoplastic constitutive equation is employed. Contact and friction are considered through the mesh-normal, which compatibly describes arbitrary tool surfaces and FEM meshes without depending on the explicit spatial derivatives of tool surfaces. The linear line elements are used for depicting the formed sheet, based on membrane approximation. The FEM formulation is tested in the sections of automotive inner panel and two-side draw-in. Not only the excellent agreement between measured and computed strains is obtained in the stretched section, but also the numerical stability of formulation is verified in the draw-in section.
