Aluminum alloys have a high strength-to-weight ratio and proper anti-corrosion properties that are used in the automotive, shipbuilding and aerospace industries. The major problem with forming aluminum sheets is the low formability of aluminum sheets at room temperature. Therefore, in the present study, warm deep drawing (WDD) of AA5052-O aluminum alloy sheets with a thickness of 1mm was invest...

Most fundamental physical equations remain valid if we reverse the time order. Thus, if we start with a physical process (which satisfies these equations) and reverse time order, the resulting process also satisfies all the equations and thus, should also be physically reasonable. In practice, however, many physical processes are not reversible: e.g., a cup can break into pieces, but the pieces...

Substantial errors can be introduced to estimates of leaf resistance (r(l)) obtained from diffusion porometers unless precautions are taken to reduce the leaf-cup temperature difference (T(leaf) - T(cup)) to acceptable levels prior to measurement. When T(leaf) > T(cup), underestimation of leaf resistance occurs; the reverse applies when T(leaf) < T(cup).The effect is most pronounced under open-...

The manufacturing industry heavily relies on deep drawing due to its remarkable ability produce intricate symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes with accuracy efficiency. This research aimed create a tool capable of producing pentagonal cup measuring 41mm in diameter 30mm height. was achieved by conducting numerical simulations experimental tests using two different methods. first method involved ...
