I have used the Abaqus software for deep drawing process.In that I was not able to get the output for shell thickness (STH) .Can anyone help me to get the output.
what type of elements u r using, if you are looking for sheet thinning better to go for 3D elements/modelling and have 2-3 elements in the thickness direction. You can even model location of crack initiation and crack growth pattern and also the effect of different processing parameters like blank diameter, material etc. You can also see our recent paper in Tech sci press in regards to Deep drawing process modelling in ABAQUS
