Bending process is one of the most significant fields of application of sheet metal die. In bending process, it is quite vital that the product should have the desired angle. Furthermore, in order to obtain the desired angle in the bent parts, spring-go and spring-back amounts must be known. In this study, 30o, 60o and 90o bending processes were applied to S235JR (1.0038) sheet metal having 3, ...

Mark D. Gross, Department of Planning and Design, University of Colorado People draw diagrams and sketches to think, argue, and communicate about problems in domains ranging from mechanical engineering to music. To understand a problem better, mathematician George Polya advised, “Draw a figure ... even if your problem is not a problem of geometry.”1 We can debate whether making a figure really ...

sandwich sheet rolling process is investigated using an analytical method (slab method) and a numerical method (finite element method). the horizontal stress distribution in the layers, the rolling pressure along the contact interface and the neutral point between the roll and the sheet are investigated. then the affects of the parameters such as the friction between the sheet and the roll, she...

Sheet and film processes include polymer film extrusion, coating processes of many types, paper manufacturing, sheet metal rolling, and plate glass manufacture. Identification, estimation, monitoring, and control of sheet and film processes are of substantial industrial interest since effective control means reduced usage of raw materials, increased production rates, improved product quality, e...

The forming process of ultra-high-strength steel (UHSS) may cause premature damage to the tool surface due high pressure. and wear increase maintenance costs deteriorate quality sheet products. Hence, a reliable prediction model for can help in efficient management productivity formed products UHSS. In this study, methodology is proposed predicting behavior stamping tools that are used DP980 sh...

The microtubule assembly process has been extensively studied, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains poorly understood. The structure of an artificially generated sheet polymer that alternates two types of lateral contacts and that directly converts into microtubules, has been proposed to correspond to the intermediate sheet structure observed during microtubule assembly. We have studi...

Folding of flat sheets of material into intricate three-dimensional structures provides a new technology for production of cores and sandwich structures of high strength/weight and/or strength/volume ratios. Geometric patterns are generated by transforming flat sheets of materials (traditional or composite) by imposing a permanent fold at specific edges of tessellated sheets. This might result ...

Plasticine is widely used in the analysis of metal forming processes, due to its excellent material flow ability. In this study, plasticine is used as the soft punch to fabricate array micro-channels on metal sheet in the micro sheet stamping process. This is because plasticine can produce a large material flow after being subjected to force and through the material flow, the plasticine can cau...
