Experimental study of surface defects on automotive doors during flanging and their numerical prediction

Surface defects can develop on automotive exterior panels after drawing and flanging steps, during springback and may alter significantly the vehicle quality. These defects are characterized by a depth below 0.5 mm and are then difficult to detect or predict numerically. This study focuses on a L-sha...
