This effort will increase the use of high strength, low alloy (HSLA) steel, in place of SAE 1006/1008 or 1010 steel. Traditional hydroforming techniques require the higher elongation of […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4953/hydroforming-high-strength-steel-tube-for-automotive/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4742/introduction-to-the-hydroforming-processes/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4742/introduction-to-the-hydroforming-processes/#respond Mon, 21 Mar 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/introduction-to-the-hydroforming-processes/ To try to answer some of the most important global demands of current designs, such as economic efficiency of technical solutions, careful handling of energy and raw materials, optimized work-piece properties innovations in processes and approaches, near to more conventional solutions, are developed. Moreover it is to consider that the increasing technological demands concerning the […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4742/introduction-to-the-hydroforming-processes/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4741/pressure-sequencing-expands-the-use-of-hydroforming/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4741/pressure-sequencing-expands-the-use-of-hydroforming/#respond Mon, 21 Mar 2005 12:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/pressure-sequencing-expands-the-use-of-hydroforming/ ]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4741/pressure-sequencing-expands-the-use-of-hydroforming/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4715/optimization-of-a-tube-hydroforming-process/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4715/optimization-of-a-tube-hydroforming-process/#respond Sat, 05 Mar 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/optimization-of-a-tube-hydroforming-process/ An approach is presented to optimize a tube hydroforming process using a Genetic Algorithm (GA) search method. The goal of the study is to maximize formability by identifying the optimal internal hydraulic pressure and feed rate while satisfying the forming limit diagram (FLD). The optimization software HEEDS is used in combination with the nonlinear structural […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4715/optimization-of-a-tube-hydroforming-process/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4370/optical-metal-sheet-forming-analysis/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4370/optical-metal-sheet-forming-analysis/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/optical-metal-sheet-forming-analysis/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4370/optical-metal-sheet-forming-analysis/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4604/il-problema-del-rumore-nello-stampaggio-a-caldo/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4604/il-problema-del-rumore-nello-stampaggio-a-caldo/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/il-problema-del-rumore-nello-stampaggio-a-caldo/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4604/il-problema-del-rumore-nello-stampaggio-a-caldo/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4385/reducing-stamped-part-development-time-with-pulsed-energy/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4385/reducing-stamped-part-development-time-with-pulsed-energy/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/reducing-stamped-part-development-time-with-pulsed-energy/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4385/reducing-stamped-part-development-time-with-pulsed-energy/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4407/a-novel-forming-technology-for-tailor-welded-blanks/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4407/a-novel-forming-technology-for-tailor-welded-blanks/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 22:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/a-novel-forming-technology-for-tailor-welded-blanks/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4407/a-novel-forming-technology-for-tailor-welded-blanks/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4448/development-and-demonstration-of-advanced-tooling-alloys/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4448/development-and-demonstration-of-advanced-tooling-alloys/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 21:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/development-and-demonstration-of-advanced-tooling-alloys/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4448/development-and-demonstration-of-advanced-tooling-alloys/feed/ 0 https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4542/adding-flexibility-to-stamping-operations-the-roles-of/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4542/adding-flexibility-to-stamping-operations-the-roles-of/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 21:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/adding-flexibility-to-stamping-operations-the-roles-of/ ]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4542/adding-flexibility-to-stamping-operations-the-roles-of/feed/ 0
