Tubular Hydroforming: Correlation of Experimental and Simulation Results

A numerical study of the effect of loading conditions on tubular hydroforming

“…Lei et al (2002) studied bursting type of failure caused by necking of the tube wall using rigid-plastic finite element analysis combined with a ductile fracture criterion. Srinivasan et al (1998) correlated simulation and experimental results for hydroforming of a tube in a die containing a circular expansion. Liu et al (1998) carried out experimental and analytical investigations of tube hydroforming and studied the mechanisms of buckling, splitting and corner fill-ins.…”

Finite element modeling of tube hydroforming of polycrystalline aluminum alloy extrusions

“…Tube hydroforming process has been studied by analytical, numerical and experimental methods (Srinivasan et al, 1998;Liu et al, 1998;Papelnjak, 2004;Hama et al, 2004aHama et al, ,b, 2003Lin and Kwan, 2004;Altan, 2004, 2003;Lang et al, 2004;Hwang and Chen, 2005;Zhang and Jiang, 2005a,b). Selection of load (internal pressure) and end condition (axial feed) will affect the formability of a metallic tube in the tube hydroforming process.…”

Finite Element analysis of aluminum tube hydroforming based on non-quadratic yield function

“…Using the explicit FE code LS-Dyna3D, Srinivasan et al (1998) provided additional correlation of experimental and simulation results for tube hydroforming, and Liu et al (1998) provided analytical and experimental examination of tube hydroforming limits.
