Details

This paper describes the results of two-dimensional plane strain finite element models of the tube hydroforming process, which were conducted using the commercial finite element code ABAQUS/Standard. The objective of the study is to develop an understanding of the tube hydroforming processes using computer models that simulate material deformation at various stages of these processes. The study examines the effects of material properties, die geometry, and initial tube wall thickness on the selection of the hydroforming process parameters and on the quality of the hydroformed product.
