| Summary |
"The introduction of numerical methods, particularly finite-element (FE) analysis, represents a significant advance in metal forming operations. Numerical methods are used increasingly to optimize product design and deal with problems in metal forging, rolling, and extrusion processes. Metal Forming Analysis describes the latest and most important numerical techniques for simulating metal forming operations. Graduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers will welcome this thorough reference to state-of-the-art numerical methods used in metal forming analyses."--BOOK JACKET |
