The behaviour of alloys in the semi-solid state strongly depends on the imposed stress stage and on the morphology of the phase which can vary from dendritic to globular. To optimal net shape forging of semi-solid materials, it is important to investigate for material behaviour for variation of strain rate. Therefore, to investigate the effect of compression speed on deformation of aluminum alloy with globular microstructure, the compression test for semi-solid aluminum alloy with controlled solid fraction is perform by material test system which is attracted with furance. The behavior of semi-solid aluminum alloy were discussed for the various solid fraction and die speed. The material constants in stress-strain were are also proposed.

Sheet metal formabilities for aluminum 1050 and 5052 were experimentally investigated in this study. Deep drawability, bendability and stretch formability were measured at each process condition and correlated with tensile properties of sheet metal. To compare the formabilities of aluminum 1050 and 5052 sheets with those of steel sheets, deep drawing quality(DDQ) steel sheets are also tested at the same test conditions. Through the experimental studies, influential process variables for each forming process were obtained and correlated with the tensile properties. The comparisons of sheet metal formabilities with those of steed sheets showed that aluminum 1050 and 5052 is inherently deficient in formability than steel sheets but Al 5052 that has highter n and r value than al 1050 showed better formabilities.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of rheocast A356 aluminum alloy by electromagnetic stirring are studied. In the electromagnetic stirring, main parameters are stirring current and stirring time. Stirring current is ranged from 0 A to 60 A, and stirring time is 20, 40, and 60 sec. In the rheocasting, injection velocity and applied pressure are changed. In this paper, the effect of stirring current and stirring time on the morphology and mechanical properties are investigated and analyzed.

In aluminum brazing processes, corrosive flux, which is used in preventing oxidation, is currently raising environmental concerns because it generates many pollutants such as dioxin. The brazing process involving non-corrosive flux is known to encounter difficulties because the melting temperature of the flux is similar to that of the base material. In this study, a new brazing filler material is developed based on aluminum and non-corrosive flux composite powder. To minimize the interference of consolidation aluminum alloy powder by the flux, the flux is intentionally embedded in the aluminum alloy powder using a mechanical milling process. This study demonstrates that the morphology of the composite powder can be varied according to the mixing process, and this significantly affects the relative density and mechanical properties of the final filler samples.

Aluminum is a lightweight metal and has excellent properties with regard to conductivity, workability, and strength. It has been used in various industries owing to its economic benefits. To improve upon the mechanical properties and processability by adding various alloying elements to aluminum, improving the corrosion resistance and heat resistance by electrochemically forming a porous anodic film having a thickness and hardness on the surface of the aluminum alloy is crucial. In this study, the aluminum 6061 alloy was controlled by an anodization process in a 0.3M oxalic acid electrolyte at room temperature to investigate the oxide film parameters such as porosity and thickness depending on the modulating applied voltage and time. The anodizing experiment was performed by increasing the time from 1 h to 9 h at 2-h intervals at applied voltages of 50 V and 60 V.

The aim of this study is to manufacture an aluminum pipe yoke of automotive steering system for lightweight. In a multistage cold forging process for aluminum pipe yoke, the surface defects frequently occur due to excessive deformation or friction during extrusion process for forming hollow pipe part. It is import to reduce the friction between the material and the forging die. This study investigated a multistage forging process with sliding die to reduce friction for aluminum pipe yoke. After evaluating by FE analysis, the forging experiment with the sliding die was carried out. As a result, it was possible to manufacture a sound aluminum pipe yoke.

Incremental sheet metal forming is a manufacturing process to produce thin parts using sheet metals by a series of small incremental deformation. The process rarely needs dedicated dies and molds, thus, preparation time for the process is relatively short as to be compared to conventional metal forming. Spring back in sheet metal working is very common, which causes critical errors in dimensions. Incremental sheet metal forming is not fully investigated yet. Hence, incremental sheet metal forming frequently produces inaccurate parts. This paper proposes a method to minimize dimensional errors to improve shape accuracy of products manufactured by incremental forming. This study conducts experiments using an exclusive incremental forming machine and the material for these experiments are sheets of aluminum AL1015. This research defines a process parameter and selects a few factors for the experiments. The parameters employed in this paper are tool feed rate, tool diameter, step depth, material thickness, forming method, dies applied, and tool path method. In addition, their levels for each factor are determined. The plan of the experiments is designed using orthogonal array $L_8$ ($2^7$) which requires minimum number of experiments. Based on the measurements, dimensional errors are collected both on the tool contacted surfaces and on the non-contacted surfaces. The distances between the formed surfaces and the CAD models are scanned and recorded using a commercial software product. These collected data are statistically analyzed and ANOVAs (analysis of variances) are drawn up. From the ANOVAs, this paper concludes that the process parameters of tool diameter, forming depth, and forming method are the significant factors to reduce the errors on the tool contacted surface. On the other hand, the experimental factors of forming method and dies applied are the significant factors on the non-contacted surface. However, the negative forming method always produces better accuracy than the positive forming method.

In order to achieve reliable but cost-effective crash simulations of stamped parts, sheet forming process effects were incorporated in simulations using the ideal forming theory mixed with the 3D hybrid membrane/shell method, while the subsequent crash simulations were carried out using a dynamic explicit finite element code. Example solutions performed for forming and crash simulations of I- and S-shaped rails verified that the proposed approach is cost-effective without sacrificing accuracy. The method required a significantly small amount of additional computation time, less than 3% for the specific examples, to incorporate sheet forming effects to crash simulations. As for the constitutive equation, the combined isotropic-kinematic hardening law and the non-quadratic anisotropic yield stress potential as well as its conjugate strain-rate potential were used to describe the anisotropy of AA6114-T4 aluminum alloy sheets.

An optimum blank design technology is required for near-net of net-shape cold forming using sheets. Originally, the backward tracing scheme has been developed for preform design in bulk forming, and applied to several forming processes successfully. Its key concept is to trace backward from the final desirable configuration to an intermediate preform of initial blocker. A program for initial blank design in sheet forming which contains the capabilities of forward loading simulation by the finite element method and backward tracing simulation, has been developed and proved the effectiveness by applying to a square cup stamping process. In the blank design of square cup stamping, the backward tracing program can produce an optimum blank configuration which forms a sound net-shape cup product without machining after forming. Another general application appears in the blank design of a cup stamping with protruding flanges, one of typical automobile components. The blank configurations derived by backward tracing simulation have been confirmed by a series of loading simulations. The approach or decision of an initial blank configuration presented in this study will be a milestone in fields of sheet forming process design.
