Springback best practices, diligently accumulated over decades, have been effective in managing dimensional compliance on mild steel and high-strength low-alloy stampings - even with little or no support from virtual engineering tools. Over the past dozen years, newer grades of advanced high strength steels and aluminum alloys, however, have upended this store of accepted best practices and collective wisdom. The role of virtual engineering in the mitigation and management of springback for these materials now is clearly acknowledged, but, best practices toward effective application of these tools are not widely and clearly understood.
