The purpose of this paper is to investigate the work hardening behavior and energy absorption characteristic of metallic foams and functionally graded foam filled tubes, including single-, double- and triple-layer foams. ...

The mechanism of Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) process is based on localized plastic deformation of a sheet metal using a hemispherical-head tool that follows the path programmed into the controller of a CNC ...

In this work, the finite element simulation of dissimilar friction stir welding process is investigated. The welded materials are AA 6061-T6 and AA 7075-T6 aluminum alloys. For this purpose, a 3D coupled thermo-mechanical ...
