Performing and communicating sheet metal simulations employing a combination of factors

Abstract:

Sheet metal is provided as a template to create a finished product. After various metal transformation techniques are performed on the sheet metal, the sheet metal may be converted to the finished product. The sheet metal manipulation may encompass different techniques, such as thinning, bending, cutting, and the like. The manipulated sheet metal may be sourced for various products, such as a body of a vehicle. The aspects disclosed herein combine various tests employed to detect the integrity of the sheet metal transformation into a singular output.
