Abstract
FE analysis is critically important to understanding the complex deformation mechanics that occur during thermo-mechanical aluminium sheet forming process in automotive and aerospace industry. Particular examples are: 1) the stretch forming of the leading edge of the aircraft tail wing with a number of intermediate annealing steps, 2) utilisation of the increased formability of inner and outer car body panels at elevated temperatures. A simulation of these processes necessitates the use of a set of advanced thermo-mechanical material models. This material model will need to consider the effects of dynamic and static recovery and precipitation and the interaction with the thermo-mechanical loading, up to a level that is required for macroscopic process simulations.
