We suggest a shape optimization method for a non-linear and non-steady-state metal forming problem. It consists in optimizing the initial shape of the part as well as the shape of the preform tool during a two-step forging operation, for which the shape of the second operation is known. Shapes are d

A two-dimensional finite element code has been developed by the authors to perform the simulation of non-steady-state forming processes. The code is based on a rigid/plastic simulation and allows the analysis of the forming of complex parts and gives the distribution of the principal field variables
This paper develops a numerical technique for determining the shape sensitivity parameters in steady metalforming processes such as drawing and rolling. The adjoint method is applied to the discrete non-linear system of equations in the finite element model in order to determine the discrete matrix
This paper is the second part of a two-part article about shape optimization of metal forming processes. This part is focused on numerical applications of the optimization method which has been described in the first paper. The main feature of this work is the analytical calculations of the derivati
A new approach to optimal process design in steady-state metal forming is presented. In the approach, optimal process design problems are mathematically formulated and solved using a penalty rigidviscoplastic finite element method as a tool for carrying out necessary calculations for optimization. T
