Abstract
Line Heating is the process of forming (steel) plates into shape
by means of localised heating often along a line. Though any
focussed heat source will do, the inexpensive and widely available
oxyacettylene gas torch is commonly applied in ship
production.Over the years, many researchers have addressed the
problem of simulating the process, and although very few have been
successful in gaining accurate results valuable information about
the mechanics have been derived. However, the increasing power of
computers now allows for numerical simulations of the forming
process using a three-dimensional thermo-mechanical model.
