Abstract:Predicting the life of piercing punch is one of the major concerns in the design of compound dies. Finite element analysis is performed to determine the maximum and minimum principal stresses through which fatigue limit of punch is estimated. The factors affecting the life of punch are examined and a mathematical model is established using artificial neural network (ANN) and adaptive neuro fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS). The developed model is utilised to evaluate the life of punch for varied load conditions.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
