A review of the effects of cyclic contact loading on fretting fatigue behaviour
(Sage Publishing Ltd., 2020)
A damage phenomenon called fretting fatigue frequently takes place when two contact bodies are clamped together under a normal contact load along with a small-scale oscillatory motion due to cyclic loading. In contrast to ...
Towards the automation of the die spotting process: Contact blue pattern decryption
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Automotive die spotting is one of the most complex and least standardized processes in the tool making process. A spotting expert identifies local contact areas through a blue-paste pattern and the die/sheet contact is ...
A coupled 3D wear and fatigue numerical procedure: Application to fretting problems in ultra-high strength steel wires
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
This work presents a coupled 3D wear and fatigue numerical procedure for fretting problems in ultra-high strength steel wires that combines Archard’s wear equation with the Smith–Watson–Topper parameter to predict crack ...
The influence of the kinematic hardening on the FEM simulation of Tension Levelling Process
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Tension levelling is used in the steel industry to remove shape defects present in cold rolled strip. This technology is increasingly being employed by steel makers to level AHSS steels, because conventional roll levelers ...
Experimental and Numerical Simulation Investigation on Deep Drawing Process of Inconel 718 with and without Intermediate Annealing Thermal Treatments
(MDPI AG, 2020)
The aeronautical industry is moving from high-capacity large-airplane construction to low-capacity small-airplane construction. With the change in the production volume, there is a need for more e cient manufacturing ...
Contact pressure, sliding velocity and viscosity dependent friction behavior of lubricants used in tube hydroforming processes
(2021)
The final quality of sheet and tube metal formed components strongly depends of the tribology and friction conditions between the tools and the material to be formed. Furthermore, it has been recently demonstrated that ...
Contact pressure and sliding velocity ranges in sheet metal forming simulations
(2021)
In the last few years many efforts have been carried out in order to better understand what the real contact between material and tools is. Based on the better understanding new friction models have been developed which ...
New drawbead tester and numerical analysis of drawbeads closure force
(Springer, 2021)
Currently, a great deal of controversy exists regarding the real forces generated in drawbeads during sheet metal forming processes. The present work focuses on the analysis of the uplift force. First, a detailed literature ...
Initiation of dynamic recrystallization of as-cast N08028 alloy
(ESAFORM, 2021)
The use of high nickel content austenitic stainless steels (SASS) has significantly increased in the last decade. The corrosion and high fatigue resistance of these materials make them suitable for manufacturing oil country ...
The Interaction between the Sheet/Tool Surface Texture and the Friction/Galling Behaviour on Aluminium Deep Drawing Operations
(MDPI, 2021)
The increasing demands for lightweight design in the transport industry have led to an extensive use of lightweight materials such as aluminium alloys. The forming of aluminium sheets however presents significant challenges ...
