Numerical Simulation of Bulging Process of Aluminum Alloy Sheet

Article Preview

Abstract:

Basing on software MSC. Marc of non-linear finite element analysis, the article has studied the material flow in the process of aluminum alloy superplastic gas bulging forming. By analyzing of the thickness distribution of the molding member it confirm the danger zone in the forming process. By analyzing of pressure loading curve influence on forming part. Because the aluminum alloy is widely used in the industrial departments, it is supposed to improve the ability of forming ability of aluminum alloy by researching the superplastic forming.
