A study on the analytical modeling for warm hydro-mechanical deep drawing of lightweight materials

The warm hydroforming process has become an emerging technology in recent years to reduce the weight of automotive body structure and minimize the number of process steps. In this study, analytical models were developed to investigate the effects of process conditions such as temperature, hydraulic pressure, blank holder force and forming speed. The analytical model under hydro-mechanical deep drawing (HMD) condition was developed based on experimental results in the literatures. FE models were also developed to validate the analytic models. Then, the analytic model was validated through comparisons with both existing experimental results and FE results. The analytical model provided rapid and reasonably accurate results for the design of warm hydroforming process. Based on this analytic model, several parametric studies were performed regarding to the temperature, hydraulic pressure, blank holder force, and punch speed conditions. It was demonstrated that the process windows for a successful part forming could be rapidly predicted with a reasonable accuracy by the analytic model compared to lengthy and costly thermo-mechanical FEA or experimental trial and error.

Combined tube and double sheet hydroforming for the manufacturing of complex parts

Modern lightweight construction, especially in the automotive industry, requires more and more complex components, which can be manufactured in one process step using the hydroforming technology. The combination of the tube and double sheet hydroforming is a new forming process, where a tube and two blanks are formed simultaneously in a die cavity, combining the advantages of both hydroforming variants. This paper deals with the fundamental considerations and investigations related to connection between tube and double sheet. The finite element analysis and laboratory trials were used in order to design the shape of the die cavity and to avoid wrinkles, material tearing and the collapse of the tube section during forming. The paper will also illustrate an analytical model for the prediction of the edge shape in the constrained bulging of a rectangular cup together with several technical solutions, which enabled a complete forming of the investigated part. Finally, the definition of a hydroforming material factor based on the analytical model of the hydraulic bulging process enables the right choice of sheets with different material strength and thickness for the hydroforming of hybrid components.

Determination of optimal loading profiles in warm hydroforming of lightweight materials

In this study, a methodology is developed to determine proper profiles of the hydraulic pressure and the blank holder force under warm hydroforming conditions at different punch speeds. First, finite element models (2-D and 3-D) are developed and validated through comparisons with the experimental results from the literature. To determine the optimal hydraulic pressure and blank holder force profiles simultaneously, an adaptive FE analysis with fuzzy control algorithm was developed. Thinning, wrinkling, punch wall contact, die corner floating and conduction were used as criteria in the fuzzy control algorithm. The effects of the determined loading profiles are then presented in terms of thickness, strain and stress, and temperature distributions as well as success/failure of the forming process. The effect of punch speed was also investigated to reveal its impact on part formability. It was found that the optimal process conditions can be rapidly and accurately obtained with the developed adaptive FEA method coupled with fuzzy control algorithm.

Overview on constitutive modeling for hydroforming with the existence of through-thickness normal stress

The hydroforming process is used widely across many industrial fields. High applied pressure during hydroforming makes it necessary to consider the influence of the through-thickness normal stress, while traditional approaches based upon a plane-stress assumption are not appropriate in such cases. Reliable constitutive models that consider the through-thickness normal stress are summarized in this paper, which focuses on the state of the art in the following several aspects: determine the flow stress curve with proper experimental methods and choose the measurement and computational methods to minimize the error as much as possible; select the proper three-dimensional anisotropic yield criterion for the specific material; Define the forming limit model and construct corresponding experimental verification method. The review of existing work has revealed several gaps in current knowledge of the hydroforming process accounting for the through-thickness normal stress. Conclusions are drawn concerning some critical issues and potential future developments in hydroforming modeling.     

A comparative study of stamping and hydroforming processes for an automobile fuel tank using FEM

The use of sheet metal in the hydroforming process for hollow bodies is a new manufacturing technology for the automotive industry. In this paper, a comparison is made between the forming processes of sheet hydroforming and conventional stamping for production of an automobile fuel tank using a commercial explicit FEM code. A modeling methodology for correlation between stamping and hydroforming is proposed in order to obtain the optimal process parameters for producing a sound hydroformed fuel tank. The simulation model for a conventional stamping process is also verified by comparison with experiment. Finally, it is concluded that the hydroforming process can produce a fuel tank with a more uniform and sound thickness distribution than the stamping operation.
