In this paper, three-dimensional elastoplastic finite element approach to simulating a clad-metal sheet metal forming process is presented. The approach is based on a layered finite element mesh system with tetrahedral elements and a force imposing die to deal with blanking holder force. The predictions are compared with experiments, revealing that they are in a good agreement with each other.
