EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL INVESTIGATIONS FOR THE CHARACTERISATION OF FLOW BEHAVIOUR OF HYBRID STRUCTURES PRODUCED BY NON-KINEMATICAL CONSTRAINT MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
Journal Title: Computer Methods in Materials Science - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 4
Abstract
With regard to the challenges in the automotive production sector, caused by political regulations of CO2 emissions, lightweight concepts are focussed by industrial development. Fibre reinforced plastics (FRP) represent an alternative material compared to monolithic steel. On the one hand FRP materials offer advantages like less density with high specific strength, on the other hand new production concepts and processes are needed. A possible approach is the combination of different forming processes for the production of new hybrid components. Polymer based and conventional sheet metal material characteristics differ strongly. Therefore an extensive material characterisation is needed as well as appropriate mathematical methods concerning the material modelling. This publication deals with the material characterisation of glass mat reinforced thermoplastic composite (GMT) and the finite element based design of a manufacturing process of hybrid components with metallic inlays.

USING NEURAL NETWORKS TO PREDICT THE FLOW CURVES AND PROCESSING MAPS OF TNM-B1
The ability to predict the behavior of a material is vital in both science and engineering. Traditionally, this task has been carried out using physics-based mathematical modeling. However, material behavior is dependent...
SEDIMENTATION IN BINARY Cu-Sn SYSTEM
In the present paper the sedimentation process in binary multiphase Cu-Sn system is presented. The initial samples were produced by GoodFellow, the initial molar fraction was Cu30Sn70 respectively. Thus, the two-phase re...
SIMULATION OF MICROSTRUCTURE EVOLUTION DURING FORGING AND HEAT TREATMENT OF Ti-6Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si TITANIUM ALLOY
The model of dynamic recrystallization of Ti-6Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si has been developed based on experimental data and implemented in FEM code QForm. Kinetics of dynamic recrystallization was simulated by Johnson-Mehl-Avra...
THE HIGHEST ENTROPY PRODUCTION DURING DIFFUSION
In the present paper, the theory of the highest entropy production is discussed. It allows to predict, which phases will grow during the multiphase ternary interdiffusion process. Moreover, the theory says, that phase wi...
A VISION SYSTEM TO SUPPORT DETERMINATION OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF TUBES REQUIRED FOR COMPUTER MODELLING OF TUBE HYDROFORMING
Reliability of computer modelling of tube hydroforming depends strongly on mechanical properties of tubes, which are difficult to determine and sensitive to tube production methods. Some developments in experimental set-...
