Summary:

      A comprehensive finite element modeling was established for warm hydromechanical deep drawing process which is a promising technique in forming of aluminum alloys that are expected to be increasingly exploited in automotive industry along with lightweighting efforts. Different number of elements and formulations, coefficients of friction for contacting surfaces, solution algorithms, and material models were systematically tested and optimum choices and values were determined.

In the second part of the study, tool temperature distribution and optimum loading profiles (hydraulic pressure, blank holder force) were obtained parametrically to achieve highest formability in warm hydromechanical deep drawing process by means of established finite element model.
