Springback effect is predicted quite good and also therefore compensated for. However, it is not 100 % reliable since it depends on sheet metal characteristics. If you can make simple model that accounts for chemical composition variation, processing variations and storing temperature and time it can be useful for stamping producers.
Yes. It is still not fully solved. See you a few recent publications. For example,
