Abstract(s)
The aim of this work is conduct numerical simulations to verify the deep drawing process and the shape of the final stamping component of a simple profile of a sheet metal geometry. To evaluate the design of sheet metal forming, ANSYS software was used. A nonlinear dynamic explicit numerical model was developed using two different models: a 3D quarter and a 2D axisymmetric finite element model, due the geometry and loading conditions symmetry to reduce the computational time processing. The numerical simulations showed the shape deformation occurring after start the process and provided detailed quantitative information about expected weakness of the resulting piece.
