Superplastic alloys and metals possess the ability to undergo large uniform strains prior to failure. Isothermal superplasticity of sheet metal is a phenomenon due to both peculiar process condition and material intrinsic characteristics. The material must have a grain size of less than 10 μm, the forming temperature of around half the absolute melting point and a very low strain rate (in the order of 10−5–10−3 s−1).The instability of superplastic flow under uniaxial stress state has been the subject of different studies. In this paper, under biaxial stress conditions, instability analysis of superplastic PbSn60 alloy using the finite element method is investigated. An original model has been implemented successfully in commercial finite element code in order to predict the imminent failure of material during superplastic forming processes. 相似文献

Transformation superplastic forming is an attractive alternative forming technique to microstructural superplastic forming,
since it requires no special microstructures and, therefore, eliminates the limitation of superplastic forming capability
to only expensive materials with stable high-temperature fine grains. Transformation superplasticity occurs through biasing
the internal stress produced from an allotropic phase transformation by a small external stress. In this work, finite element
modeling was implemented to study the transformation superplastic forming of domes from flat circular thin plate samples.
The evolution and distribution of stress, strain, and dome thickness was analyzed in detail. The thickness distributions in
the formed domes were compared with the theoretical predictions of two models, which assume different stress states in the
domes. The appropriate stress state was identified through this comparison. Different gas pressure amplitudes were applied
during forming to investigate the effect on the formed-dome apex height, when the forming time was fixed.

Computational process models using membrane element method are developed in this paper for the superplastic forming of plane
strain boxes with complex cross-sectional details. Many practical superplastic components manufactured in industry have sloping
sidewalk with die bottoms either corrugated and/or at angles to the sides. The new method is used to develop process models
for such configurations and the resulting software can be used interactively in a computer. The method is useful to a designer
in the parametric study of die geometry, die wall friction, initial thickness, and material property, or to determine if a
specific geometry is suitable for superplastic forming. The kinematics of deformation are illustrated, and the numerical results
of the model are compared with continuum finite element solutions and also with experimental data. 相似文献

A review of the numerical analysis of superplastic forming 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper reviews the literature on the numerical simulation of superplastic forming (SPF). After introducing the phenomena of superplasticity and superplastic constitutive equations, non finite element analyses are reviewed. The finite element method of solution to SPF simulation is then examined within the context of the standard flow formulation. However non steady state SPF is not ideally suited to a standard flow formulation and an alternative, incremental flow formulation is discussed. 相似文献

An innovative method has been developed that replaces argon as the pressure source for superplastic forming. In this new process,
several solid materials are placed in a closed system to generate pressure and are capable of forming superplastic alloy plates
at specific temperatures. In the present study, the total pressures for the decomposition of ( CaCO3+ C) and MgCO3 have been theoretically calculated from thermodynamics. The results show that a pressure range of 40 to 396 psi can be obtained
for the ( CaCO3 + C) system between 850 and 1000 °, which is suitable for the superplastic forming of Ti-6Al-4V and Superdux 64 ( Nippon
Yakin Kogy Co., Ltd., Sanei Bridge, Kyobasi 1-5-8, Chyuoku, Tokyo 104, Japan) stainless steel. The pressure for MgCO3 system between 480 and 515 ° ranges from 78 to 160 psi, which is suitable for the superplastic forming of 8090 Al-Li and
7475 Al-Zn-Mg alloys. The calculated temperature dependence of pressure is consistent with the experimentally measured results.
Furthermore, the forming rates, wall thickness distributions, tensile properties, and microstructures of the four alloys after
forming have been shown to be very similar to those of conventional superplastic forming by argon pressurization. 相似文献

Finite element modeling and optimization of superplastic forming using variable strain rate approach
Mohammad A. Nazzal Marwan K. Khraisheh Basil M. Darras 《Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance》2004,13(6):691-699
Detailed finite element simulations were carried out to model and optimize the superplastic blow forming process using a microstructure-based
constitutive model and a multiscale deformation stability criterion that accounts for both geometrical instabilities and microstructural
features. Optimum strain rate forming paths were derived from the multiscale stability analysis and used to develop a variable
strain rate forming control scheme. It is shown that the proposed optimization approach captures the characteristics of deformation
and failure during superplastic forming and is capable of significantly reducing the forming time without compromising the
uniformity of deformation. In addition, the effects of grain evolution and cavitation on the superplastic forming process
were investigated, and the results clearly highlight the importance of accounting for these features to prevent premature
failure.

In recent years, finite element methods have been used extensively in the metal-forming industry. In the rigid-viscoplastic domain, the finite element method is being utilized as a forming process simulation tool, and in elastic and thermal domains, the method is being applied in forming tooling design. Such applications of the finite element method have enabled a more scientific approach to forming process development and trouble shooting. The capabilities and applications of the finite element methods in optimizing and developing metal-forming processes are presented with an emphasis on steel forging processes for automotive parts. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to explore the plastic deformation behavior of the sheet during blow-forming of a superplastic sheet into an ellip-cylindrical closed-die by the finite element method. A finite element commercial code “DEFORM” is used to carry out the simulations and calculate the pressurization profile and sheet thickness distribution during the blow-forming process. A pressure control algorithm is proposed to keep the maximum strain rate in the deformation zone of the sheet equal to the target value, which corresponds to the highest m value of the material being superplastically formed. The effects of various forming conditions, such as the friction coefficient between the sheet and die and the aspect ratio of the die, on the forming pressure and thickness distribution of the product are discussed. Experiments using 8090 Al–Li sheets on superplastic blow-forming in an ellip-cylindrical closed-die are also carried out. The theoretical predictions of thickness distribution of the product are compared with experimental results. 相似文献

A new optimization approach for superplastic forming of Mg AZ31 alloy is presented and experimentally validated. The proposed new optimization approach is based on a multiscale failure criterion that takes into account both geometrical necking and microstructural evolution, yielding a variable strain rate forming path instead of the commonly used constant strain rate approach. Uniaxial tensile tests and free bulge forming experiments, in conjunction with finite element analysis, are used to evaluate the proposed optimization approach. Significant reduction in forming time is achieved when following the proposed optimization approach, without compromising the uniformity of deformation. 相似文献

Magnesium sheet is typically produced for commercial applications with the traditional DC-ingot casting method. As a result
of the hexagonal close-packed crystallographic structure in magnesium, multiple rolling passes and annealing steps are required
to reduce the thickness of the ingots. Thus, high fabrication costs characterize the creation of magnesium sheet suitable
for common forming operations. Recently, continuous casting (CC) technology, where molten metal is solidified directly into
sheet form, has been applied to magnesium alloys; this method has shown the potential to significantly reduce the cost of
fabricating magnesium sheet alloys. In order to understand the viability of the CC process, a study was conducted to investigate
the superplastic potential of alloys produced by this method. This study focused on AZ31B Mg that was continuously-cast on
twin-roll casters from three different suppliers. These three materials were compared with a production DC-cast AZ31B alloy
in terms of microstructure, elevated-temperature tensile properties, and superplastic forming response. The data from this
study found that microstructural features such as grain size and segregation can significantly affect the forming response.
Additionally, the CC alloys can have equivalent or superior SPF response compared to DC-cast alloys, as demonstrated in both
elevated temperature tensile tests and superplastic forming trials using a rectangular pan die. 相似文献

In this article, the elastic-plastic finite element formulations using dynamic explicit time-integration schemes are proposed
for numerical analysis of automotive body panel stamping processes. A general formulation of finite element simulation for
complex sheet forming processes with arbitrarily shaped tools is briefly introduced. In finite element simulation of automotive
body panel stamping processes, the robustness and stability of computation are important requirements since the computation
time and convergency become major points of consideration besides the solution accuracy due to the complexity of geometry
and boundary conditions. For analyses of more complex cases with larger and more refined meshes, the explicit method is more
time effective than the implicit method, and it has no convergency problem and has the robust nature of contact and friction
algorithms, although the implicit method is widely used because of excellent accuracy and reliability. The elastic-plastic
scheme is more reliable and rigorous, while the rigid-plastic scheme requires short computation time. The performance of the
dynamic explicit algorithms is investigated by comparing the simulation results of forming of complex-shaped automotive body
parts, such as a fuel tank and a rear hinge, with the experimental results. It has been shown that dynamic explicit schemes
provide quite similar results to the experimental results. It is thus shown that the proposed dynamic explicit elastic-plastic
finite element method enables an effective computation for complicated automotive body panel stamping processes. 相似文献

This paper is concerned with an Eulerian finite element analysis for the steady state forming of porous materials, such as
nano-grained material manufactured via cryogenic milling. The constitutive relation for such porous materials is different
from that for a fully dense matrix. The general form of the constitutive equation for a porous material is derived from the
yield functions for the plastic deformation of a porous material, as proposed by Shima, Green, Doraivelu, Gurson, Kuhn, Park,
and Lee. Then, that general form is utilized in the Eulerian finite element formulation for the strain hardening, dilatant,
and viscoplastic deformation. Initial estimation of the porosity distribution in an Eulerian mesh is obtained from the velocity
and scaled pressure fields computed by the Consistent Penalty finite element method for the incompressible viscoplastic deformation
of the matrix. Applications of the proposed method to rolling and extrusion are given. The change of the porosity is predicted
by integrating its evolution equation along a particle path constructed in an Eulerian domain. Comparisons of the predicted
distributions of porosity to those by a Lagrangian finite element method and to those by experiments reported in the literature
validate the proposed method. 相似文献
