USD7 is one of the steel products of Isfahan Steel Company. It is cast in continuous casting moulds and rolled up to a rod of 5 mm diameter. Finally, it is wire drawn up to 3 mm and used as welding electrodes. This steel contains 0.05 to 0.09 wt. % carbon. The acceptable limit of the aluminium in this class of steel is less than 0.003 wt%. Therefore, it is categorized as rimmed steel...

This paper investigates the forming of sheet metal forming under cycling loading by considering the Bauschinger effect. Different proposed plasticity models which can handle this kind of deformation process have been reviewed in details. For instance, isotropic, kinematic and combined forms in the linear and non-linear cases including the well-known Yoshida and Chaboche's models have been studi...

Electromagnetic forming is a high energy rate forming process. In this process, an electromagnetic Lorentz body force is used for deformation of products. In this article, Electromagnetic forming process was simulated for assembly of parts as an innovative method. In this research work, the effect of important parameters of process such as discharge energy, radius and width of rectangular groov...

Superplastic materials show a very high ductility. This is due to both peculiar process conditions and material intrinsic characteristics. However, a number of superplastic materials are subjected to cavitation during superplastic deformation. Evidently, extensive cavitation imposes significant limitations on their commercial application. The deformation and failure of superplastic sheet metals...
