Finite Element Simulation of Sheet Metal Forming Processes

In the present study, the survey of research work on finite element analysis of metal forming processes has been carried out. A classification of formulations dealing with geometry and material nonlinearity in the context of finite element simulation of forming operations has been recapitulated. The procedures based upon shell and continuum approaches and methods of dealing with frictional contact, are described. Topics of current interest on finite element analysis such as error estimation, projection of error, and adaptive mesh refinement have been reviewed.
