Abstract

Bending of U-rib by gas heating is investigated using Thermal Elastic Plastic (TEP) Finite Element Analysis (FEA) employing an accurate heat source model. Results of both thermal and mechanical analyses are in good agreement with experimental measurements. Based on the FEA predictions and using the inherent deformation method, the bending process is optimized.
