Download or read book Finite Element Method in Manufacturing Processes written by J. Paulo Davim and published by Wiley-ISTE. This book was released on 2011-03-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The finite element method (FEM) has become the main instrument for simulating manufacturing processes, owing to the fact that it can replace experimental approaches to the study of manufacturing processes in many cases. This book describes some of the research fundamentals as well as advances in the application of FEM in such manufacturing processes as machining, bulk deformation, sheet metal forming, surface treatments, micromanufacturing processes, and more. It is a highly useful reference for academics, researchers, engineers and other professionals in manufacturing and computational mechanics.
