Virtual process control in forming manufacturing systems
Methoden der virtuellen Prozessauslegung umformtechnischer Systeme
Last Updated: 2026-02-05 15:29:13
Abstract
Introduction to the methods of virtual modeling of manufacturing processes, illustrated with examples from the digital automotive plant and others. The lecture presents an opportunity to learn the application of non-linear finite element analysis and optimization methods and also adresses stochastical methods for the control of the robust processes.
Objective
Integral study of virtual planning technologies in forming manufacturing systems
Content
Introduction to the methods of digital plant modeling. Examples: digital automitive plant, digital space-frame manufacturing, digital extrusion plant. Methods: virtual modeling of complex forming processes, non-linear FEA, optimization methods, stochastical methods.
