ing analysis, process engineering, and metalforming finite-element analysis techniques and tools. Topics covered include sheetmetal stamping and die basics, sheet and tube mechanical properties, strain analysis for predic- tion of formability, common failure modes of sheetmetal parts, circle-grid and thinning analysis and finite-ele- ment analysis of sheetmetal-stamping processes.
