If the cross sectional area is 48 square inches find the depth of the gutter.
Bending cross sectional area in sheet metal.
Percent elongation at frac ture decreases with increasing gage length because of localized necking in the specimen.
F stretch forming force lbs ys material yield strength psi uts ultimate tensile strength of the material psi a cross sectional area of the workpiece in2 forces needed to bend sheet metal.

In general as reduction of area increases the minimum allowable bend radius for a sheet ma terial decreases.
2d x 20 therefore.
It is important to make sure that the sheet is properly pushed onto the wipe die.
Total elongation and reduction of area both increase with increasing cross sectional area of the specimen.
A piece of sheet metal w 20 inches wide is bent to form the gutter shown in the illustration.
Wipe bending or edge bending is another way to bend sheet metal edges.
To define the bend region and reduce the force required to bend a part out of sheet metal down to something you can handle without a brake press slots can be cut at the bending line to selectively.
Sort of like this the width is x d d.
Where is the area moment of inertia of the cross section is the cross sectional area is the shear modulus is a shear correction factor and is an applied transverse load.
The slack between the wipe die and the punch plays an important role in getting a good result.
Stress distribution through the thickness of the part.
