Physical Logic Enhanced Network for Small-Sample Bi-layer Metallic Tubes Bending Springback Prediction

Laser Bending of Tubes : Mechanism , Analysis , and Prediction

Laser bending of tubes is a process in which laser-induced thermal distortion is used to bend tubes without hard tooling or external forces. Mechanisms of the process are examined to better understand the deformation characteristics such as wall thickness variation, cross-section ovalization, bending radius, and asymmetry. Factors important to these characteristics are experimentally and numeri...

Springback prediction of titanium tube bending considering Bauschinger effect and Young's modulus variation

Springback Effect Prediction in Wipe Bending Process of Sheet Metal: a Ga-ann Approach

Sheet metal is one of the most important semi-finished products used in automobiles, domestic appliances, aircraft and other familiar products. Therefore sheet metal forming technology is an important engineering discipline in the area of mechanical engineering. In sheet metal forming, wipe bending process plays a major role in which the sheet metal tries to return to its original shape after r...

Analytical prediction of springback based on residual differential strain during sheet metal bending

As the springback of sheet metal during unloadingmay cause deviation from a desired shape, accurately predicting springback is essential for the design of sheet stamping operations. Finite-element models have not been successful in predicting springback; hence there is a need for analytical models to make such predictions. In this study, a model based on differential strains after relief from t...

Prediction of Bending Angle for Laser Forming of Tailor Machined Blanks by Neural Network

Tailor-made blanks are sheet metal assemblies with different thicknesses and/or materials and/or surface coatings. A monolithic sheet can be machined to make the required thickness variations that is referred as tailor machined blanks. Due to the thickness variation in tailor machined blanks, laser bending of these blanks is more complicated than monolithic plates. In this article, laser formin...
