Simulation of springback and wrinkling in stamping of a dual phase steel rail-shaped part

The prediction of part defects in sheet metal forming by numerical simulation allows the automotive makers to reduce the costs of designing tools and to shorten the time-to-market cycle. The research is focused on improving the predictability of springback and wrinkling occurrence by using the static explicit finite element simulation of stamping a dual phase rail part. The proposed solution for simulation includes algorithms implemented in the finite element code which make possible the obtaining of more accurate prediction results.
