• An automatic thermo-mechanical testing apparatus for metal forming applications 

      Agirre, Julen; Abedul Moreno, David; Sáenz de Argandoña, Eneko; Otegi, Nagore; GALDOS, Lander; Erice, Borja (Elsevier, 2023)
      Dynamic testing of materials is necessary to model high-speed forming processes (e.g. hammer forging, blanking, forming, etc.) and crash/impact behaviour of structures, amongst others. The most common machines to perform ...
    • Hardening prediction of diverse materials using the Digital Image Correlation technique 

      Agirre, Julen; Mendiguren, Joseba; GALDOS, Lander; Sáenz de Argandoña, Eneko (Elsevier, 2018)
      In recent years, due to the introduction of higher resistance materials in the automotive sector, sheet metal-forming tool-makers have been forced to deal with more challenging process designs. Therefore, the optimisation ...
    • Monitoring of a Hammer Forging Testing Machine for High-Speed Material Characterization 

      Agirre, Julen; Otegi, Nagore; Abedul Moreno, David; Oruna Otalora, Angel; GALDOS, Lander (Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
      Dynamic testing of materials is necessary to model high-speed forming processes (i.e. hammer forging, blanking) and crash/impact behavior of structures, among others. The most common machines to perform medium to high-speed ...
    • Study on the influence of the springback on the hole expansion ratio characterization 

      Zubia, Biotza; Mendiguren, Joseba; GALDOS, Lander; Sáenz de Argandoña, Eneko; Agirre, Julen (Whioce Publishing, 2018)
      Material formability has become one of the main problems, together with the springback, when stamping high added-value components for the automotive industry. The pursuit of weight reduction has led to higher strength ...
