With the reference to the surface classification determined by Gauss curvature, the proportion of the mid-surface area between before and after being developed is derived from the displacement variation of the mid-surface in the normal vector direction of the sheet metal during the sheet metal forming process. Hereby, based on the curve development theory in differential geometry, a novel diagonal point by point surface development method is put forward to estimate a complex cover panel＇s blank contour efficiently. By comparing the sample＇s development result of diagonal point by point surface development method with that of available one-step method, the validity of the proposed surface development method is verified.展开更多
