Sheet-Metal Bending in ANSYS

Project Objective:

To Perform stress analysis on sheet bending.

To set up three different materials and test the following cases.

Case 1: Aluminium Alloy 1199, Copper Alloy NL and Magnesium Alloy NL. Find out the Equivalent stress, Equivalent elastic strain and Total Deformation in the Y direction and compare the results for the three materials.

Case 2: With the material as Aluminium Alloy, change the friction coefficient to 0.19 and run the analysis as mentioned in Case 1. Compare the results with that in case 1.

Case 3: Refine the mesh on the plate such that it doesn’t cross the academic limit. With Aluminium alloy as material, run the analysis as in Case 1 and compare the results.
