Content of Learning Activity

Use of finite elements models for manufacturing processes simulation: non-linear finite element, material constitutive models for manufacturing processes modeling, damage modeling.
Application to various manufacturing techniques: forming at the solid state, machining by removal of chips.
Software (all-purpose and specialized) used in modeling of manufacturing processes.
Other numerical methods to model machining processes and applications: discretization methods with mesh (ALE, CEL), meshless methods, use of mechanistic approach and macroscopic simulation.

The course is closely linked to the state of the art to whch the Machine Design and Production Engineering Lab contributes with its research in the field.
