Abstract
We present a methodology for automated forming of metal plates into freeform shapes using shot peening. The methodology is based on a simulation software that computes the peening pattern and simulates the effect of its application. The pattern generation requires preliminary experimental characterization of the treatment. The treatment is applied by a shot peening robot. The program for the robot is generated automatically according to the peening pattern. We validate the methodology with a series of tests. Namely, we form nine aluminum plates into doubly curved shapes and we also shape model airplane wing skins. The article describes the complete workflow and the experimental results.
期刊介绍:
The Journal publishes and disseminates original research in the field of material forming. The research should constitute major achievements in the understanding, modeling or simulation of material forming processes. In this respect ‘forming’ implies a deliberate deformation of material.
The journal establishes a platform of communication between engineers and scientists, covering all forming processes, including sheet forming, bulk forming, powder forming, forming in near-melt conditions (injection moulding, thixoforming, film blowing etc.), micro-forming, hydro-forming, thermo-forming, incremental forming etc. Other manufacturing technologies like machining and cutting can be included if the focus of the work is on plastic deformations.
All materials (metals, ceramics, polymers, composites, glass, wood, fibre reinforced materials, materials in food processing, biomaterials, nano-materials, shape memory alloys etc.) and approaches (micro-macro modelling, thermo-mechanical modelling, numerical simulation including new and advanced numerical strategies, experimental analysis, inverse analysis, model identification, optimization, design and control of forming tools and machines, wear and friction, mechanical behavior and formability of materials etc.) are concerned.
