In recent years the traditional sheet metal forming processes, suitable for high volume batches, do not correctly meet new market requirements characterised by high flexibility, reduced time-to-market, low cost for small batch production, etc. Moreover, they are not suitable for producing low cost prototypes and pre-series components. Thus new sheet metal forming techniques are very often requi...

The accumulative roll bonding (ARB) as a severe plastic deformation (SPD) procedure aimed at enhancing the mechanical properties of metals and alloys. In the present study, a new slab method is proposed for estimating the forming stress field for cold extrusion of metals cross the alumina interlayer powder particles by accumulative roll bonding process. Plastic deformation behavior of the metal...

This research provides an insight on the performances of machine learning (ML)-based algorithms for estimation energy consumption in metal forming processes and is applied to radial-axial ring rolling process. To define mutual influence between geometry, process settings, mill geometries with resulting consumption, measured terms force integral over processing time (FIOT), FEM simulations have ...

There are several parameters that have significant influence in metal forming process. One of the most important of them is friction coefficient. Friction can change the pattern of metal flow and the force needed for deformation. It is necessary to determine the friction coefficient to study the effect of friction on metal forming process. This study is concerned with numerical and experimental...

Cold roll forming (CRF) is a bending process where the bending occurs gradually in severalforming steps from an undeformed strip to a finished profile. The process is very interesting for thesheet metal industry due to the high speed in which the profile can be produced. High strength steelhas, in recent years, become more common in CRF. These materials have advantages but also<...

Metal forming process simulation requires a very high cost including the cost for dies, machine and material and tight process control since the process involve very huge pressure. A physical modeling technique is developed and initiates a new era of educational tool of simulating the process effectively. Several publications and findings have shown a potential of the techniques else where. The...

In this paper instability of planar anisotropic sheet metal during a few forming processes is investigated for the first time. For this reason components of the constitutive tangent tensor for planar anisotropic sheets are developed. By using the above tensor location of necking is predicted. Direction of the shear band is also predicted using the acoustic tensor. A finite element program is pr...
