| Research Abstract |
In sheet metal forming, it is important to adjust the blank holder force (BHF). Low BHF causes wrinkling, whereas high BHF result in tearing. Variable BHF (VBHF) approach that the BHF varies through the punch stroke is one of the attractive forming techniques. Unfortunately, the VBHF is unknown in advance, and the determination of the VBHF using numerical simulation is valid. Numerical simulation in sheet forming is so expensive that a sequential approximate optimization (SAO) is beneficial.
In this research, in order to determine the VBHF trajectory, an optimization problem is constructed. We determine the optimal VBHF trajectory to avoid the tearing and wrinkling for square cup deep drawing. Thus, a multi-objective optimization (MOO) is constructed for this purpose. A sequential approximate multi-objective optimization method is developed and applied to the MOO problem. Through numerical simulation, the proposed approach is so effective.
