[en] The resolution of many nonlinear solid mechanical problems with the Finite Elements Method requires remeshing when very large deformations occur. The remeshing operation is divided into two parts: the generation of the new mesh and the data transfer from the old to the new mesh. In dynamic plasticity problems, two kinds of fields have to be transferred: the first is defined thanks to the nodal values and the second one is defined at the integration points. These two kinds of fields are transferred thanks to an original computation of the Data Transfer Method based on the Finite Volume Elements. This method is compared to another one using Mortar Elements to solve metal forming problems.
