Abstract:In this paper, we are interested particularly in the tube hydroforming process (THP). This process consists of applying an inner pressure combined with an axial displacement to manufacture the part. During the manufacturing phase, inappropriate choice of the load paths can lead to failure. Deterministic approaches are unable to optimize the process by taking into account the uncertainty. So we introduce the reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) to optimize the process under probabilistic constraints to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
