Study of the influence of selected anisotropic parameter in the Barlat’s model on the drawpiece shape.

In this paper, the numerical analysis and computer simulation of deep drawing process has been presented. The incremental model of the process in updated Lagrangian formulation with the regard of the geometrical and physical nonlinearity has been evaluated by variational and the finite element methods. The Frederic Barlat’s model taking into consideration the anisotropy of materials in three main and six tangents directions has been used. The work out application in Ansys/Ls-Dyna program allows complex step by step analysis and prognoses: the shape, dimensions and state stress and strains of drawpiece. The paper presents the influence of selected anisotropic parameter in the Barlat’s model on the drawpiece shape, which includes: height, sheet thickness and maximum drawing force. The important factors determining the proper formation of drawpiece and the ways of their determination have been described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
