Optimization methods for complex sheet metal stamping computer aided engineering
2010
Nowadays, sheet metal stamping processes design is not a trivial task due to the complex issues to be taken into account (complex shapes forming, conflicting design goals and so on). Therefore, proper design methodologies to reduce times and costs have to be developed mostly based on computer aided procedures. In this paper, a computer aided approach is proposed with the aim to offer a methodology able to solve very complex sheet metal stamping processes, in particular a progressive design approach based on the integration between numerical simulations and optimization methodologies is presented. In particular, Response Surface Method, Moving Least Squares approximation and Pareto optimal s…
A NEW PROGRESSIVE DESIGN METHODOLOGY FOR COMPLEX SHEET METAL STAMPING OPERATIONS: COUPLING SPATIALLY DIFFERENTIATED RESTRAINING FORCES APPROACH AND M…

The growing interest in sheet metal stamping processes, particularly in the automotive industry has led to three main issues in this field:*request of very complex shapes; *growing interest in springback control; *solution of multi-objective problems. These issues make a sheet metal stamping processes design very difficult and proper design methodologies to reduce times and costs are highly required. In this paper, a computer aided approach aiming to satisfy the mentioned issues is proposed. In particular, a progressive design approach based on the integration between numerical simulations, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Pareto optimal solutions search techniques was applied in orde…
