Abstract

Steel-stamping is widely used in manufacturing metal parts procedures. However, a distinct spring-back effect happens on the metals after unloading. Such change may go against the original intention of the designers. Therefore, the study of the spring-back development after deep-drawing procedures is essential. In this report, the Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis is performed to predict the unloaded topology of a specific metal sheet. Besides, simulation results based on shell elements and 3D elements are compared.
