Modeling of Thermo-Electro-Mechanical Manufacturing Processes with
Applications in Metal Forming and Resistance Welding provides readers
with a basic understanding of the fundamental ingredients in plasticity,
heat transfer and electricity that are necessary to develop and proper
utilize computer programs based on the finite element flow formulation.
Computer implementation of a wide range of theoretical and numerical
subjects related to mesh generation, contact algorithms, elasticity,
anisotropic constitutive equations, solution procedures and
parallelization of equation solvers is comprehensively described.
Illustrated and enriched with selected examples obtained from industrial
applications, Modeling of Thermo-Electro-Mechanical Manufacturing
Processes with Applications in Metal Forming and Resistance Welding
works to diminish the gap between the developers of finite element
computer programs and the professional engineers with expertise in
industrial joining technologies by metal forming and resistance welding.
