Thin Sheet Forming Numerical Analysis With A Membrane Approach

  • Conference paper

Abstract

A numerical model for solving either elastic-plastic, elastic-viscoplastic or purely viscoplastic deformation of thin sheets is presented using a membrane mechanical approach.The Finite Element Method is used associated with an incremental updated Lagrangian procedure.The mechanical equations are the principle of virtual work written in terms of plane stress at the end of each increment and an incremental implicit flow rule obtained by the time integration of the constitutive relations over the increment.The examples given here are the computation of hemispherical punch stretching for the elastic-plastic behavior and the application to superplastic forming with the viscoplastic flow rule.
