Abstract
The wrinkling research in sheet metal forming process has always been one of the most common hot topics. There are many methods to predict the sheet metal wrinkling while it is still difficult to accurately predict the initiation of wrinkling. The variational study of the potential function can be used to analyze the sheet metal wrinkling and acquire the stable energy criterion. In this paper, the sheet metal wrinkling mechanisms are explained in detail, and a wrinkling prediction model is proposed based on derivation and the potential function analysis during sheet metal forming processes. Meanwhile, the finite element (FE) simulation and experimental results of Yoshida buckling test (YBT) are used to verify the accuracy of the theoretical wrinkling prediction model. And the wrinkling prediction model has also applied to analyze the conventional spinning forming process, and the critical moment of flange wrinkling had been accurately predicted.
