Computational modeling and, more specifically, production technology, has the potential to develop beyond a purely scientific field of research. Simulation-assisted production, which means simulation of production processes in real time, is still a vision for the next decades but will, if put into practice, revolutionize standard production technology. Current economic competition already requires enormous shortening of production cycles, and computational modeling is the only way to reduce experimental effort. However, it is only accepted as alternative development tool if it provides realistic results. This again calls for better models and methods – based on a deep knowledge of computational mechanics.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Material models for metallic and composite materials
- Finite element technology for processes involving large deformation and noticeable inelasticity
- Multi-scale modeling of production processes
- Consideration of thermal and chemical fields
- Isogeometric or meshless methods for forming processes
- Model reduction methods in computational modeling of production processes
