Summary
An automotive project is now based on numerical validation to reduce the development time between the project preparation and the start of production. That is particularly true to predict the formability of materials and solve dimensioning problems. But some problems remain and we will give examples of limitations in the case of steel sheet stamping, of tubes or profile bending, of polymer injection. We will also show that the main difficulty relates to constitutive equations that require to be more and more representative of the real behaviour of materials.
