COMPARISON OF ANALYTICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL DETERMINATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF BENDING FORCE
Analytical solutions to a problem are a combination of natural laws, mathematical rules and approximations. The only way to determine whether analytical solutions correspond to reality is experimental verification. In this paper, approximate analytical solutions of the purely plastic bending force with and without strain hardening of the ...
