Masters thesis opportunities in testing and finite element simulation of packaging materials

Packages are the means of preservation, distribution and convenience of use for food, medicine and other consumer products. Introduction of new packaging materials or package opening techniques for better user experience, forces new design measurements which require a large number of prototype developments and physical testing. In order to achieve more rapid and robust designs, […]

Experiments and FE-simulations of stretch flanging of DP-steels with different shear cut edge quality

ABSTRACT Dual-Phase (DP) steels are today used in the automotive industry due to its large strength to weight ratio. However, the high strength of DP-steel does have a negative impact on the general formability in sheet metal forming. Unfavourable process conditions in the press shop will, on top of this, reduce the formability of DP-steels […]
