Lightweight materials, such as titanium alloys, magnesium and aluminium are characterised by unusual combinations of high strength, corrosion resistance, low weight. However, some the grades these alloys exhibit poor formability at room temperature, which limits their application in sheet metal-forming processes. materials used extensively automobile aerospace industries, leading to increasing ...

Abstract. This paper provides an analysis of the Rigid Body Motion (RBM) in multi-stage Single Point Incremental Forming a cylindrical cup. The RBM is studied using Digital Image Correlation to track material each contour tool, resulting better understanding phenomenon than has been shown literature. study shows that highest Z-translations midpoint cone take place last contours stage, where the...

the aim of this paper is to develop a systematic method to analyze the effects of forming parameters on the quality of part formability and determine the optimal combination of the forming parameters for the sheet hydroforming process. in this paper, the effects of four important process parameters namely fluid pressure, friction coefficient at blank/punch interface, gap between die rim block a...
