Currently tube hydroforming has many studies and applications in manufacturing industry, especially in automotive industry. But tube hydroforming was applied to the automotive component with simple shape. So the manufacturer and the researcher proposed additional processes to form the automotive component with complex shape. It is prebending and preforming. Prebending is to crush bend or rotary draw bend a tubular blank into a shape that facilitates placement into the next forming tool. Preforming is where the prebent tube is crushed into a shape that facilitates placement into the final forming tool. This paper analyzed and compared to the tube hydroforming process to using of general and preformed bending tube, also explained the importance of tube bending and preforming process. The explicit finite element program PAM-STAMP$\^$TM/ was used to simulate the tube hydroforming operations.

Tube hydroforming is recently drawing attention of automotive industries due to its seberal advantages over conventional methods. It can produce wide range of products such as subframes, engine cradles, and exhaust manifolds with cheaper production cost by reducing overall number of processes. Tube hydroforming process is divided into prebending process and hydroforming process. Tube bending ins an important factor of the hydroforming process to enable the tube to be placed in the die cavity. This paper presents the theoretical analysis and the simulation results of the tube bending process. With some assumptions, approximate equations are derived to predict the thickness distribution on the cross section and the spring back of the bent tube. Bending simulations are carried out and compared to the analytical and experimental results.

Since the sheet forming of Mg alloy has many difficulties due to the low formability, many forming conditions need to be selected properly. Especially, the process variables should be investigated to increase the formability, such as, forming temperature. In this paper, the effects of forming process variables has been investigated using the bending and deep drawing process. A simple U-bending designed for mobile part could be formed in room temperature and springback amounts are surveyed. On the other hand, square cup part couldn't be formed in room temperature due to the low formability. Therefore, the effects of forming temperature are investigated in deep drawing process for square cup part. As a experimental and FEM results, the optimum forming temperature is presence and formability in a higher temperature is less than that of lower temperature. Above experimental results are compared with the FEM analysis and well coincided with the experimental results. Therefore, more detail investigations could be progressed to select more appropriate process conditions by the FEA.

This paper is to investigate a crack for plasma sprayed MCrAlY coated material by acoustic emission method in 4-point bending test. The CoNiCrAlY is coated on Inconel-718 by vacuum plasma spray process. Micro-hardness measurement was conducted by means of Micro Vickers-hardness indentor. The porosity of coating layer was measured using a SEM and Image Analyzer. AE monitoring system is composed of PICO type sensor, a wide band preamplifier(40dB), a PC and AE DSP(16/32 PAC) board. The AE count, Hit and energy of coating specimens is measured according to coating thickness.

In this paper, modeling of the multi-pass roll forming process with the finite element method and defect prediction in roll forming process are presented. In the roll forming process, there occurs the defect of scratch. It appears on tubes because of the friction between the strip and the roll, the unexpected sliding velocity and the contact pressure when fabricating the tubes. The surface of the product will be not uniform due to the defect. The scratch can be predicted with the simulation modeling of the finite element method, and can be avoided by modifying the design.

Bending is one of the most common cold-stamping operations, recently it is many used to produce structural frame. Depending on the shape and dimensions of complex structural frame, a successive bending operation with simple dies may be economic. But, in this paper, it has been focused to reduce the bending operations by a successive-action compound die. Designed compound-die consists of blank-holder, cam, wedge and etc. In the result, this compound-die for structural frame enabled that it makes seven bending processes into one process, and improved productivity.

A sectional FEA program is developed lot analyzing forming processes of sandwich sheets, which are intensively used recently as a lightweight material of an automobile body. The aluminum sandwich sheet consists of two aluminum skins and a polyprophylen core in between. The aluminum sandwich sheet is dominantly effected by the bending effects in small radius of curvature, so that an appropriate description of bending effects is required to analyze the forming processes. For the evaluation of bending effects, the bending equivalent forces are calculated from the bending moment computed using the curvature of the tool and are added to the membrane stretch forces. To verify the validity of the developed program the sectional FEA results in stretch/draw forming Processes of a square cup and draw forming Processes of an outer hood panel were compared with the measurements.

Metallic bipolar plate for molten carbonate fuel cell(MCFC) is composed of the shielded slot plate and the center plate. Among these, the center plate plays an important role in gas sealing. Therefore, manufacturing of the center plate is considered one of the key issues in MCFC. The center plate is manufactured by bending process. In bending process, springback and recoiling are two main problems. By using the modified punch shape with 'step', springback and recoil are reduced. The aim of this article is to find the effect of modified punch shape. So, the bending stress along thickness direction and material direction were investigated using FEM.
