Description

The application of computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques is becoming essential in modern metal-forming technology. Thus process modelling for the determination of deformation mechanics has been a major concern in research. In light of these developments, the finite element method - a technique by which an object is decomposed into pieces and treated as isolated, interacting sections - has steadily assumed increased importance. This volume addresses advances in modern metal-forming technology, computer-aided design and engineering, and the finite element method.
