Abstract

The Creep Age Forming process involves a very particular tridimensinonal strain state that must be considered for its modeling. In this context it is necessary to use simulation methods to consider this type of behavior at all points of the piece. The analysis in finite element software aims to qualify the student to the numerical simulation of the process modeling and form a basis for comparing results of future tests. (AU)
