one of the bellows producing method is hydroforming process .whereas some factor of hydroforming process specially internal pressure affects on final characteristics produced bellows such as bursting, wrinkling and wall thickness distribution. in this paper the effect of internal pressure factor in final quality of produced bellows will be investigated. in simulation of process, abaqus/explicit...

tube hydroforming (thf) process is used to produce the complex components from the initial cylindrical tubes. in this paper, t- shape component was formed using a tube hydroforming machine and the residual stresses of hydroformed tube was determined by hole drilling method. subsequently, the thickness distribution and residual stresses of final tube were investigated using experimental and fini...
