Recent medical studies have investigated the importance of enteral feeding and the use of feeding pumps for recovering patients unable to feed themselves or gain nourishment and nutrients by natural means. The most of enteral feeding system uses a peristaltic tube pump. A peristaltic pump is a form of positive displacement pump in which a flexible tube is progressively squeezed externally to al...

The internal hydroforming of large stainless-steel eggshells from a stepped preform is investigated in this paper. nominal major and minor axes the eggshell were 1537 1070 mm, respectively. was fabricated thin-walled (1.9 mm thick) sheets comprised twelve conical segments inscribed inside target eggshell. then hydroformed, its wall thickness shape measured. yield load distribution material hard...

Hydroforming processes of metal tubes and sheets are being widely applied in manufacturing because the increasing demand for lightweight parts sectors such as automobile, aerospace, ship-building industries [...]
