Abstract
There are cases in which practitioners wish to be able to predict the properties of a panel, should they replace one material by another. In this study, the yield strength, stiffness and dent resistance of double-curvature car body panels are treated both theoretically and experimentally. The results of the investigation show that the above-mentioned properties of a pressed panel can be predicted provided that the magnitude of the principal surface strains and the magnitude of the panel radii at the panel centre are known.
