Finite element modelling and adaptive remeshing in static and dynamic analysis of metal powder forming processes

This thesis presents a general framework for the finite element simulation of powder forming processes. As the compaction process involves a very large reduction in volume, the behaviour of the powders is assumed to be that of a rate-independent elasto-plastic material. The process is therefore desc...
