Abstract: The springback of I shape stringer manufactured by X850 prepreg is studied with simulation method in order to establish an accurate simulation model. Temperature falling period is the key point in the simulation model. In order to find suitable simulation model boundary condition, element size and discrete method are analyzed. Through parameter sensitivity analysis, the key parameter can be found. Then the simulation model is calibrated by adjusting the key parameter. The results show that the simulation results are different when choosing different element sizes and discrete methods. The 2 mm element size and monolayer discrete method are the best choice taking into account simulation accuracy and compute cost. The simulation model can perfect predict springback direction when the part size is small and temperature is homogeneous. Simulation accuracy can be improved by adjusting sensitive parameter. The calibrated model is verified by other projects, the difference between simulation result and measuring result is within 8%.
