Contribution to CiSMA
BTH is leading the data-driven modelling of metal forming through the selection of material models and contributing to stochastic modelling. BTH will develop predictive models using accurate finite element simulation and machine learning to compute the effect of high variability in steel. BTH will also work in collaboration with the industry to develop forming simulation models of the selected use-case parts using circular steel.
