Full Description
This practical book discusses in detail computer-aided engineering (CAE) of bending metal sheets and profiles. The presented methods reduce the rollout time for new manufacturing designs of bent details in the automobile, aircraft and other industries. The author provides step-by-step introductions and thus enables readers to create their own projects in CAE systems. The book consists of six sections covering topics such as theory of bending and the operation of stamping the blanks, CAE modeling of multi-angular bending and stretch bending, the theory of optimal layout of blanks on the sheet and implementing this in programs. Written primarily for practicing engineers and scientists, it is also beneficial for teachers, students and graduate students.
