The Cazacu 2004 yield criterion was improved to describe the yield behavior under the action of pulse current, in which the tensile-compressive asymmetry keeps changing with the increase of plastic strain.

Cold compaction, which augments chip density to approximately 2.5 g/cm³, significantly curtails oxidation losses and enhances metal recovery. During remelting, NaCl-KCl-based fluxes with limited fluoride additions (e.g., 3–7 wt% Na₃AlF₆) disrupt oxide networks but require careful dosage control to minimize furnace corrosion and environmental hazards. Moreover, mechanical stirring combined with suitable melting temperatures reduces porosity while enhancing melt purity.

However, the evaluation of simulation results typically depends on a manual inspection by experts, despite its repetitive nature. This study aims to use APIs to develop a fully-automated method for identifying and evaluating critical features and thus, the quality of draping simulations. The focus thereby lies on providing a validated framework for the automated evaluation of draping simulation results, rather than claiming perfect virtual representation of experimental draping. Three different metrics (deviations of fiber angles, the boundary contour and topological defects) are used to determine the overall draping quality of simulation results.

The clamps have a major influence on the process limits wrinkling and slippage of the in-plane torsion test. The size and the surface structure of the clamping on the process limit of slipping and wrinkling is investigated. Results show that a ring-shaped clamping surface can transmit up to 50% more torque at the same clamping force compared to a full-circle clamping surface. Investigations show that torque transmission through plain clamping surfaces is not possible for thin sheets (<i>t</i> = 0.5 to 3.0 mm). In order to enable torque transmission in spite of this, the structuring of the clamping surface is necessary. Therefore, radial serrations are well suited, to ensure a homogenous torque transmission over the circumference. An analytical approach was developed and numerically validated, that can determine the indentation depth, the maximum transmittable torque and the necessary clamping force for radial serrations. The geometrical and material specific influence on the process boundary of wrinkling was analyzed and a material independent recommendation for the geometrical shape of the clamps was proposed.

This study investigates the combined manufacturing process of Rotary Draw Tube Bending (RDTB) followed by Tube Hydroforming (THF) to address these challenges. Through numerical simulations and experimental validation, the process parameters of both forming techniques, as well as key defects including wrinkling, wall thickness reduction, and die filling rate, were thoroughly examined. The findings reveal that excessive thinning in the extrados during RDTB is mitigated during the subsequent THF operation. Similarly, excessive thickening in the intrados during RDTB is counteracted by the stretching and thinning effects of THF.

This has become a challenging issue in the field of industrial precision forming. To address this problem, a CNN-TCN-TPA neural network model is proposed to model the complex coupled relationships during the dynamic roll bending forming process. Firstly, a multi-scale CNN is employed to extract the implicit features of roll bending at different time scales, enabling the model to understand the inherent patterns of roll bending data comprehensively. Subsequently, TCN is utilized to learn the influence relationships before and after roll bending forming. Finally, a temporal attention mechanism is adopted to learn the impact of different historical moments on the final outcome, thereby establishing the CNN-TCN-TPA roll bending forming curvature radius prediction model and achieving accurate prediction of the roll bending forming curvature radius. The prediction performance of the CNN-TCN-TPA model is compared with traditional neural network models, TCN models, and TCN-TPA models. The results indicate that the CNN-TCN-TPA model exhibits higher prediction performance compared to other neural network models, with mean square error and mean absolute error of 5971.65 and 24.42, respectively.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"18 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143786431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For instance, they can be used in bulk microforming to solve handling difficulties or in joining technology to connect dissimilar materials to overcome challenges of different chemical, thermal and mechanical properties of materials. Due to the absence of material flow restrictions in the direction of the sheet metal plane, pin extrusion is affected by numerous process-, workpiece- and tool-related parameters, which have a huge impact on the material utilization and the obtainable pin geometry. Within the scope of this study, a combined numerical-experimental research approach is used to analyze the influence of the material and its condition on the achievable pin height and the occurrence of the mostly undesired funnel formation at high punch penetration depths. For this purpose, elastic-ideal plastic and elastic-real hardening model materials are first investigated numerically, which are subsequently validated and verified in experiments by using the materials Cu-OFE and DC04 on a laboratory scale. Based on the results, recommendations for the material selection and its properties are derived in order to maximize the material utilization. In addition, a pin joining process with locally modified extrusion conditions to increase the load-bearing capacity, especially under axial load, is being investigated with DP600 and AA 6014-T4. This process is a new type of two-stage mechanical joining process without an auxiliary joining element in which pin structures extruded from the sheet metal plane are used to join dissimilar materials in a subsequent step. In this work, test specimens are locally pre-punched before pin extrusion to create an enhanced pin geometry in order to achieve an improved undercut in the subsequent joining process. As a result, a new type of pin geometry was realized and investigated, which shows a significant increase of up to 82% in load-bearing capacity under axial load compared to the existing reference pin geometry.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"18 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12289-025-01897-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143786655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
