Drawbeads are applied in the deep drawing process to improve the control of the material flow during the forming operation. These drawbeads can be replaced by an equivalent drawbead in simulations of the deep drawing process. In this paper the implementation of an equivalent drawbead model in a finite element code is described. This equivalent drawbead takes not only the drawbead restraining fo...

Low qualified rate and inferior quality frequently occurring in the general deep drawing process of a certain box-shaped part, now use hydroforming to optimize forming process, in order to study the effect of hydroforming for improving the quality and formability, purposed five process schemes: general deep drawing, active hydroforming, passive hydroforming, general deep drawing combined with a...

In this paper to predict the critical conditions for onset of elastic-plastic wrinkling of flange of a two-layered circular blank during the deep-drawing process a closed-form semi-analytical elastic-plastic solution using Tresca yield criterion alongwith deformation theory in plasticity with considernig the perfectly plastic behaviour of materials is presented. Simplifying the presented soluti...

In this paper back-propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) is employed to predict the limiting drawing ratio (LDR) of the deep drawing process. To prepare a training set for BPANN, some finite element simulations were carried out. die and punch radius, die arc radius, friction coefficient, thickness, yield strength of sheet and strain hardening exponent were used as the input data and the...

In this paper back-propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) with Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm is employed to predict the limiting drawing ratio (LDR) of the deep drawing process. To prepare a training set for BPANN, some finite element simulations were carried out. die and punch radius, die arc radius, friction coefficient, thickness, yield strength of sheet and strain hardening exponent ...

this paper investigates the earing phenomenon in deep drawing of aa3105 aluminum alloy, experimentally and numerically. earing defect is mainly attributed to the plastic anisotropy of sheet metal. in order to control such defect, predicting the evolution of ears in sheet metal forming analyses becomes indispensable. in this regard, the present study implements the advanced yield criterion bbc20...

Highly prized is the truly productive crime prevention strategy, one that lightens the load on an overworked criminal justice system and, more importantly, reduces the number of victims. But to prevent crimes—especially in hot spots (high-crime areas)—police must determine where and when crimes are likely to occur. Drawing primarily on data collected in the United Kingdom, this Research in Acti...
