Thedesignprocessofcomplexshapedsheetmetalstampingssuchasautomotivepanels,consistsofmanystagesofdecisionmakingandisaveryexpensiveandtimeconsumingprocess.Currentlyinindustry,manyengineeringdecisionsaremadebasedontheknowledgeofexperiencedpersonnelandthesedecisionsaretypicallyvalidatedduringthesofttoolingandprototypingstageandduringharddietryouts.Veryoftenthesoftandhardtoolsmustbereworkedorevenredesignedandremanufacturedtoprovidepartswithacceptablelevelsofquality.

ThebestcasescenariowouldconsistoftheprocessoutlinedinFig.1.Inthisdesignprocess,theexperiencedproductdesignerwouldhaveimmediatefeedbackusingaspeciallydesignsoftwarecalledone-stepFEMtoestimatetheformabilityoftheirdesign.Thiswouldallowtheproductdesignertomakenecessarychangesupfrontasopposedtodownthelineafterexpensivetoolinghasbeenmanufactured.One-stepFEMisparticularlysuitedforproductanalysissinceitdoesnotrequirebinder,addendum,orevenmostprocessconditions.Typicallythisinformationisnotavailableduringtheproductdesignphase.One-stepFEMisalsoeasytouseandcomputationallyfast,whichallowsthedesignertoplay“whatif”withoutmuchtimeinvestment.
