The application of computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques is becoming essential in modern metal-forming technology. Thus process modeling 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
