Abstract
A straight flange problem is investigated with the expectation that this will lead to a better understanding of the deformation mechanism and to more complicated flanging problems. The `in-die' shape of the part is subdivided into a number of segments and individual springback of each segment is investigated, by releasing the elastic energy element by element, using the Finite Element Method (FEM). Typical distribution of the springback angle along the blank is obtained and found to be quite different from the widely used constant springback assumption for the curved part of the flange. A new model incorporating a non-uniform moment distribution at the curved part is proposed which reflects the above observation. Explicit analytical formulae are derived and the analytical predictions match with the experimental results very well.
