5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Nonlinear Strain Paths in Sheet Metal Forming
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD project will explore formability and contact mechanics under non-linear strain paths, where the principal strain directions change. In the limit, the major and minor principal strain axes may even swap. This will add a new dimension to the understanding of both formability and the development of real contact area against a tool surface, which is important for estimation of friction. A new tool will be developed for combining real-time measurements of in-plane strains and live-update of the actual formability curve/surface accounting for the nonlinear strain paths. Analytical and numerical modeling will be carried out to enrich the understanding of the strain path influence on both formability and real contact area.
