Finite Element Simulation of Nickel-Plated Steel Sheet in Stamping Process

Abstract:

Nickel-plated steel sheet with high ductility and wonderful corrosion resistance, it has been widely used in industry. Stamp forming is a high-volume fabrication method for producing desired components. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the deformation behaviors of the steel and nickel. In this paper, finite element method (FEM) simulation was carried out to analyze some factors such as stress distribution, strain distribution, and fillet radius.
