Metal Forming and the Finite-Element Method cover

The application of computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques is becoming essential in modern metal-forming technology. Thus process modelling for the determination of deformation mechanics has been a major concern in research. In light of these developments, the finite element method - a technique by which an object is decomposed into pieces and treated as isolated, interacting sections - has steadily assumed increased importance. This volume addresses advances in modern metal-forming technology, computer-aided design and engineering, and the finite element method.

"The volume is remarkable on many counts. It is an extremely well-researched and well-presented first book on the subject. Current, exhaustive literature survey is evident in each chapter. Graduate and research students in the field of metal forming would find this a most useful book. For the clarity of its presentation, practicing engineers interested in applying FEM to metal-forming processes and design will benefit from this volume." --Journal of The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society "The volume is remarkable on many counts.
