description To get an insight into the relationship between heating conditions and inherent deformation, the key to automate the plate forming by line heating, a series of experiments and/or numerical analyses is required. To replace costly experimental work, the finite element method (FEM), which is considered the most effective tool, is used in analysis. Two different analyses are required, namely heat conduction and thermal-elastic-plastic deformation analyses. In both of them a mesh model is need. In order to choose the most appropriate mesh model, the relationship between degree of freedom (DOF) and the computational time plays a key role. It is a fact that the usage of small element in the heating area increases the accuracy of the predictive model increasing the DOF.
