Abstract:Plasma arc bending of laminated clad metal sheets (LCMS) is a newly developed technique that produces deformation in the LCMS by thermal stress instead of external mechanical force. Since the temperature field leads to the thermal stress, a FEM mode was developed to study the temperature variations in the plasma arc bending of the LCMS which was validated robustness by the experiments. The results show that the temperature variations of the LCMS include the preheating, temperature dramatically changing and coo… Show more
