The Effect of Pressure-time Condition Affect in Properties of Superplastic Formed part

압력 조건이 초소성 성형품의 성질에 미치는 영향

The shape and thickness distribution according to the pressure-time curve were carried out using the FEM and experiment. Also, mechanical properties were investigated. The square cup parts have been formed with pressure-time curve generated by result of analysis. The tensile strength and elongation have been investigated according to applied pressure conditions using the tensile test specimen obtained from the superplastic formed cup. We can use to predict the shape of formed part under the applied pressure using the FEM analysis. In the case of optimum pressure condition, the thickness distribution and mechanical properties were improved. From this study, we can find the important of optimum pressure-time condition. We have investigated about the forming of airplane part and fuel tank for motorcycle. If the applied load used in boundary conditions was appropriate, the simulation result coincides with the formed part. However, it is very difficult to define the pressure condition in complicated shape. Thus, it is need to develop the optimum pressure condition for superplastic forming.
