FEA for stretch requirements between flat pattern and formed pattern
FEA for stretch requirements between flat pattern and formed pattern
(OP)
Anyone can recommend a simple FEA package that will let me compare the flat pattern of a part (ex: wing skin of a aircraft) and compare it against the final formed model to know how much stretch it required and where by creating a strain map?
Thanks in advance,

So with package would you suggest that show the matl streching required to reach the form model from the flat pattern model?
Thanks in advance.
