In this paper, the finite element method is employed in conjunction with the abductive network to predict the optimum blank contour of elliptic cylindrical cup with ear-less in deep drawing. The earring behavior of the formed cup is caused primarily by planar anisotropy in the sheet. Different cup heights combined with various aspect ratios of the elliptic cylindrical cup are taken into account...

The goal of this paper is to prove the well-posedness for the governing equations which are used for cylindrical cloaking simulation. A new time-domain finite element scheme is developed to solve the governing equations. Numerical results demonstrating the cloaking phenomenon with the cylindrical cloak are presented. We finally extend the analysis and simulation to an elliptical cloak model.

AbstractHydroforming process is a deep stretching process only with the difference that a fluid is used instead of the mandrel. This paper investigates the hydroforming process of non-cylindrical and non-spherical geometries using finite element analysis software to calculate the influences of effective process parameters such as the coefficient of friction between the surfaces and the pressure...
