Abstract Within the automotive industry, there is an increasing demand for a paradigmshift in terms of which materials are used for the manufacturing of the automotive body. Globalclimate goals are forcing a rapid adaption of new, advanced, sustainable material grades suchas the fossil free steels and materials containing higher scrap content. With the introduction ofthese […]

ABSTRACT Sheet metal forming (SMF) simulations are traditionally carried out with rigid active forming surfaces. This means that the elasticity and dynamics of presses and die structures are ignored. The only geometries of the tools included in the simulations are the active forming surfaces. One reason for this simplification is the large amount of computational […]
