Sheet metal forming problems are typical in nature since they involve geometry, boundary and material non-linearity. Cup drawings involves many parameters like punch and die radius, clearance, lubrication, blank holding force and its trajectories etc. So designing the tools for cup drawing involves a lot of trial and error procedure. To reduce number of costly trial error steps, the process can...

We have developed (1) a graph visualization system that allows users to explore graphs by viewing them as a succession of spanning trees selected interactively, (2) a radial graph layout algorithm, and (3) an animation algorithm that generates meaningful visualizations and smooth transitions between graphs while minimizing edge crossings during transitions and in static layouts. Our system is s...

Force-directed graph drawing algorithms are widely used for drawing general graphs. However, these methods do not guarantee a sub-quadratic running time in general. We present a new force-directed method that is based on a combination of an efficient multilevel scheme and a strategy for approximating the repulsive forces in the system by rapidly evaluating potential fields. Given a graph G = (V...

in this study, the formation of different parts of a cup during deep drawing process has been investigated analytically using the geometrical relationships. for a given punch travel, the effects of the bending angle, and those of the die and shoulder radii on the flange and die shoulder strains were examined. in addition, different components of the deformation force were calculated and the pun...

A large class of diagrams can be informally characterized as node – link diagrams. Typically nodes represent entities, and links represent relationships between them. The discipline of graph drawing is concerned with methods for drawing abstract versions of such diagrams. At the foundation of the discipline are a set of graph aesthetics (rules for graph layout) that, it is assumed, will produce...
