Notes:
The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become an indispensable tool in metal forminganalysis [1,2]. Contrary to the traditional methods, FEM allows to analyze more realistic situations, eithergeometric and tensional. On the other hand, the drawing process is one of the most ancient metal formingoperations and, nowadays, this process is widely used in industrial field. However, the influence of themain parameters in the mechanics and efficiency of the process has been scarcely studied. Drawingprocesses have been analysed by FEM, assuming plane strain and axisymmetrical conditions in order tocheck the possibility of extrapolating results from one case to another. Besides, this numerical method iscompared with analytical and experimental methods. Also, FEM is used for studying the influence ofseveral technological parameters on variables such as the drawing force or the die pressure, and forobtaining results of stresses and strains in certain regions of the model
