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 forming of low and high strength tailor welded steel sheets into preferred three-dimensional shapes by a homogeneous distribution plastic strain is highly difficult. In this work, the formability tailor-welded blanks prepared using laser welding (IS 513 CR2, IS CR3) tensile (AISI 304) were analyzed formation edge profile weld line movement was also examined. results showed decrease in chara...
