This paper describes an application of data mining, namely classification, with respect to 3-D surface analysis. More specifically in the context of sheet metal forming, especially Asymmetric Incremental Sheet Forming (AISF). The issue with sheet metal forming processes is that their application results in springback, which means that the resulting shape is not necessarily the desired shape. Er...

ZnTiCu (zinc-titan) sheets with approximately 0,1% Cu and 0,1% Ti content are very widely used in the construction industry for roof covering, gutters, drain pipes, facing linings, connections, window shelves, decorative elements on roofs, art products, etc. Data on the production technology of zinc-titan alloy sheet and on its forming properties are very scarce and unreliable. Therefore they m...

Abstract The accurate description of friction is critical in the finite element (FE) simulation sheet metal forming process. Usually, oversimplified through use a constant Coulomb coefficient. In this study, application an existing multiscale model extended to hot stamping accounts for effects tool and surface topography as well evolution contact pressure, temperature, bulk strain during stampi...

In search for new manufacturing process, Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) emerged to be one of the useful processes for forming complicated shapes. This is a flexible forming process which eliminates the die, punch and errors due to them. It is widely used for batch production of different shapes which has applications in diverse fields like automobile, aerospace, medical industry, packa...
