In this study, an extended stress-based forming limit diagram (FLD) for prediction of necking based on the Marciniak and Kucznski (M-K) model is represented and applied in tube hydroforming. The bulge forming of a straight tube is simulated by finite element method and verified with published experimental data. This adaptive simulation technique is based on the ability to detect the onset an...

Abstract The purpose of this work is to predict and analyze the formability twinning – induced plasticity steels through Marciniak-Kuczynski (MK) theory with emphasis on solutions for improving prediction results. selected constitutive equations involve Yld00-2d Barlat et al. (2003) plane stress yield function, Swift strain–hardening power law dislocation density based model proposed by Kim (20...

Asymmetric rolling (ASR) is a method to manufacture sheet metals with the aim of improving material performance. The objective present work investigate effect asymmetric on an aluminum alloy used in automotive industry. To this end, three parameters process were studied, namely asymmetry factor (1, symmetric (SR) and 1.36, (AR)), thickness reduction per pass (10%, 15%, 30%), routes (asymmetric ...

BACKGROUND Currently we observe a growing interest in human saliva as a non-invasive material for diagnosis and monitoring of general and oral diseases. METHODS The aim of our study was adaptation of the Marciniak et al. (Marciniak J, Zalewska A, Popko J, Zwierz K, 2006, Clin Chem Lab Med 44: 933-937) method for determination of HEX and GLU activity in synovial fluid, and for determination of...

Two-layer metallic sheets have wide applications in various industries due to their superlative characteristics. This paper presents analytical model to investigate the formability of two-layer sheets based on Marciniak and Kuckzinsky (M-K) method using Barlat and Lian non-quadratic yield criterion. FEM simulation is also performed to calculate the forming limits based on bifurcation theory. Fo...
