ultrasonic vibration assisted single point incremental forming (uvaspif) process is an attractive and adaptive method in which a sheet metal is gradually and locally formed by a vibrating hemispherical-head tool. the ultrasonic excitation of forming tool reduces the average of vertical component of forming force and spring-back rate of the formed sample. the spring-back phenomenon is one of the...

This study aimed to evaluate Laser-cutting process of Mild Steel St37 sheets with two different thicknesses. In order to evaluate the quality of cutting edge and the depth of the area affected by the heat, several tests were conducted to determine the effect of parameters such as Laser power, Laser beam movement speed and pressure of axillary gas on the quality of cutting edge and the depth of ...

Abstract Due to the increased integration of functions, many components have meet high and sometimes contradictory requirements. One way solve this problem is Tailored Forming. Here, hybrid semi-finished products are manufactured by a joining or cladding process, which then hot-formed finished. For design for possible later industrial application, knowledge about properties required. In paper i...

the nervous system has an important and vital role in the human body, but unfortunately the repairment of damaged nervous tissue is very slowly. for a long time, the scientists have been involved in finding ways to speed up this process. radiation of low power he-ne laser has been suggested to as a way to improve this issue. in this study, 20 rats were divided randomly into control and case gro...

in sheet metal forming processes, one-stage production of conical-cylindrical parts with high accuracy is very difficult due to wrinkling and rupturing. hydrodynamic deep drawing assisted by radial pressure is one of the most applicable procedures in sheet hydroforming process on the point of producing conical-cylindrical parts. in this paper, forming pressure path is investigated as one of the...

In sheet metal forming processes with complex strain paths, a part is subjected to large plastic deformation. This severe plastic deformation leads to high plastic strain localization zones and subsequent accumulation of those strains. Then internal and superficial micro-defects and in other words ductile damage is created. This damage causes quality problems such as fracture. Therefore, design...

Today, FE-simulation of forming process has become an integral part for assessing and evaluating forming processes. The optimization, i.e. improvement of product characteristics, has been an integral part of forming simulation based virtual product development for several years now. On the other hand, the robustness of forming processes is becoming more and more focused on recently. Therefore t...

In this paper, we propose a reliability–mechanical study combination for treating the metal forming process. This combination is based on the augmented Lagrangian method for solving the deterministic case and the response surface method. Our goal is the computation of the failure probability of the frictionless contact problem. Normally, contact problems in mechanics are particularly complex an...
