Abstract
Geometric mapping technique has been used to find the shape of initial blank for sheet forming. The method was chosen because of its simplicity and numerical efficiency. Error in blank shape were measured along deformation path by FE analysis of forming. Blank shape was modified by volume additionaddition/Subtractiontraction method with taking with taking into account of deformation path. Modified blank shape shows an acceptable result, showing the current method can be an useful tool for predicting blank shape in the practical application. More test will be done to verify the validity of the method.
