For the purpose of eliminating annular welding seams in structures with differential thickness, a hydroforming method using circular 5A06 aluminum alloy plate radial thickness coupling flexible polyurethane auxiliary was proposed to form an integrated semi-ellipsoid shell. The had smaller middle and larger periphery. In forming process such plates, concentrated deformation fracture might have o...

This study aims to investigate the formability of AA2198-T3 Al-Li alloy in hydro-mechanical deep drawing (HMDD), through experimentation and finite element simulation. The effects most critical factors were studied: die cavity pressure forming temperature; temperature is selected at 298K 423K. Gurson?Tvergaard?Needleman model (GTN model) was employed analyze predict fracture hydroforming a cyli...

Product design in the early stages requires a more quantitative process to ensure that simulation study's outcome will meet expectations. The purpose of this study was determine whether manufacturing software package could effectively evaluate and validate conceptualised blank tooling manufacture sizeable complex- shaped aluminium alloy aircraft panel using die sheet hydroforming. Blank tool co...

development of new technologies and combined with creativity and innovation, plays the fundamental role in developing of any community′s value. thus, in this research the design and production of hydroforming device was introduced. one of the best and most efficient technologies in the world of metal forming is wind turbine blade producing with hydroforming method which seems as an innovative m...

This paper presents evaluation and effect of blank radius on radial stresses through mathematical formulations in hydroforming deep drawing process using castor oil medium. Hydraulic pressure can enhance the capabilities of the basic deep drawing process for making cups. In hydroforming deep drawing process, applying the hydraulic pressure on blank periphery in radial direction. It is obtained ...

Hydroforming is one kind of plasticity working, which can be used to increase the diameter, to change the geometry, or to expand the outer walls of cylindrical shells or tubes. The forming principle of hydroforming is by using a die to constrain the outer geometry of a tube and then pumping high pressure oil into the inner tube, so as to force part of the tube to flow into the die cavity. In or...

 Nowadays, light weight and high strength metals are being used in various industries such as automotive and aerospace. Using aluminum-magnesium alloys is an efficient way to reduce the weight of a specific part. These alloys have poor formability in room temperature thus they should be formed at elevated temperature. Warm hydroforming and hot metal gas forming are conventional methods to form ...
