The accumulated know-how and trial-and-error procedures are known as the best ways to determine blank shape and dimensions. One of the most important steps to determine the blank shape and dimensions in deep drawing process is to calculate the surface area of the product. In general, the surface area of products is calculated by mathematical or 3-D modeling methods. A blank design system is constructed for elliptical deep drawing products to recognize the geometry of the product in the long side and short side by drafting in another two layers on AutoCAD software. This system consists of input geometry recognition module, 3-D modeling module and blank design module, respectively. Blank dimension of three types is determined by the same area, which was acquired in 3-D modeling module. The suitability of this system is verified by applying to a real deep drawing product.

This study is concerned with the optimum blank design which is able to minimize earing phenomena. A new analytic method is proposed to determine the optimum blank shape only using the tension test and standard deep drawing tests. Introducing a dimensionless parameter related to the earing and using a Fourier analysis, the optimum blank shape can be obtained by R-value and the tested results. The theoretical results by the proposed method are good agreement with the experimental results through several deep drawing tests using steel as working materials.

Warm deep drawing which is one of the new forming technologies to improve formability of sheet metal is applied to the cylindrical cup drawing of Mg-alloy sheet metal. In experiments the temperature of die and blank holder is varied from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$, while the punch is cooled by circulation of coolant to increase the fracture strength of workpiece on the punch corner area. Test material chosen for experiments is AZ31 magnesium sheet metal. Teflon film as a lubricant is used on both sides of a workpiece. The limit drawing ratio as well as thickness distributions of drawn cups are investigated and validity of warm deep drawing process is also discussed.

Examination of the die design is carried out for a multi-stage rectangular cup drawing process with the large aspect ratio with the aid of the finite element analysis. The analysis considers the deep drawing process with the ironing process for the thickness control in the cup wall. Simulation is performed to investigate the deformation mechanism in the initial design and the modified design. The analysis clarifies that the irregular cross section and the irregular contact condition produces unfavorable deformation. The analysis results show that the modified design improves the quality of a deep-drawn product with the low possibility of failure. The analysis result also shows good agreement with the experimental one.

Three-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element formulation based on the membrane theory was described and a computer program for large deformation analysis was developed. In the formulation, normal and planar anisotropy of sheet material and rotation of the principal axes of anisotropy was taken into consideration. Sheet metal was assumed to be rigid-plastic material obeying Hill's quadratic yield criterion and its associated flow rule. Deep drawing process, as a preliminary test, for normal anisotropic material was analyzed in order to examine the validity of developed finite element program. The results were consistent with the existing finite element solutions or experimental data. The present study was mainly concerned with the influence of planar anisotropy on deformation behaviour. Finite element analysis and experiment were carried out for the whole process of deep drawing of planar anisotropic material. The computational and experimental results on the shape of ear, strain distribution and punch load were in good agreement.

Based on the formulation which incorporates large deformation and anisotropy, an elastic-plastic finite element code is developed with membrane element to include the contact treatment. For the analysis of the general sheet metal forming process with contact condition, the treatment of contact is considered by employing the successive skew coordinate system. Three kinds of sheet metal forming processes with contact conditions are analyzed; stretching of a square diaphragm with a hemispherical punch, deep drawing of a circular cup and deep drawing of a square cup. Then the computational results are compared with the experiment. The computed loads and the distribution of the thickness strain are in good agreement with the experiment for all cases. However, the computational results of the thickness strain show the effect of bending can not be ignored in the deep drawing process whereas the effect of bending is negligible in stretching.

Sheet metal forming process is a non-linearity problem which is affected by various process variables, such as geometric shape of punch and die, frictional characteristic, etc.. Therefore, the knowledge of the influence of the process variables is needed in the design of sheet metal working processes. In this paper, cylindrical cup drawing tests for blank holding force, punch speed and lubrication between sheet material and tool were carried out to investigate the influence upon sheet formability. Experimental results were discussed about the defects on the deformation behaviors during the forming process.

High-quality cups of deep drawing ratio of more than four cannot be simply drawn by conventional drawing and redrawing processes. In the present study, after the first deep drawing process, subsequent hydromechanical reverse redrawing with controlled radial pressure is employed. In order to increase the deep drawing ratio up to muchmore than four, the radial pressure should be controlled independently of the chamber pressure and thus an optimum forming condition can be found easily by varying the radial pressure. The process has been subjected to finite element analysis by using the rigid-platic material modeling considering all the frictional conditions induced by the hydrostatic pressure. In order to consider the pressure effect on the sheet, the pressure distributions on the flange part and the side wall part are calculated mumerically from simplified Navier-stokes equation. The comparison of the computation with the experiment has shown that the finite element modeling can be conveniently emplyed for the design of the process with reliability from the viewpoint of formability.

In this study, it was studied whether a new measurement factor "frictional vibration" that occurs due to the material flow of the die and sheet metal in the flange area during deep drawing process, could be measured using an vibration sensor. The blank holder force acting on the flange area during drawing processing acts as a friction force in the opposite direction into which the sheet material flows and causes friction vibration. As the blank holder force increases, the friction force increases, and as the blank holder force decreases, the friction force also decreases. Because of this, friction vibration also increases and decreases in proportion to the size of the blank holder force. According to this theory, whether frictional vibration occurs was measured using a flange simulator and a vibration sensor. The initial pressure was created using a torque wrench, and it was confirmed that the amplitude increased by about 4 times when torque 6 Nm was increased. When the forming velocity was rapidly changed to 300 mm/min, the amplitude increased approximately 4 times. It was confirmed that the amplitude of frictional vibration according to the measurement location was greater the further away from the specimen. It was verified that a new measurement factor "friction vibration" in the flange area can be measured and used for online monitoring.
