A Predictive Tool for Delaying Wrinkling and Tearing Failures in Sheet Metal Forming
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the sheet metal forming industry, there is increasing demand to lower manufacturing costs while also providing a decrease in product development turnaround period as well as lighter weight ...
Constitutive Modeling of the Finite Deformation Behavior of Membranes Possessing a Triangulated Network Microstructure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanical behavior of the membrane of the red blood cell is governed by two primary microstructural features: the lipid bilayer and the underlying spectrin network. The lipid bilayer is ...
Finite Element Analyses of Real-Time Stability Control in Sheet Forming Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sheet metal forming processes involve the plastic deformation of a sheet of material into a desired shape. In practice, the uncontrolled variation of boundary and material conditions have made ...
An Equivalent Orthotropic Representation of the Nonlinear Elastic Behavior of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An equivalent orthotropic representation (EOR) of the nonlinear elastic behavior of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was developed based on a nested shell structural representation of MWCNTs. ...
Polycarbonate and a Polycarbonate-POSS Nanocomposite at High Rates of Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Polymeric materials are known to exhibit strong time-dependent mechanical behavior, as evidenced by rate-dependent elastic moduli, yield strength, and post-yield behavior. The nature of the rate ...
Accommodation of Springback Error in Channel Forming Using Active Binder Force Control: Numerical Simulations and Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Springback in a forming process is due to the elastic deformation of the part during unloading. This manufacturing defect can be accounted for through proper tooling design or through proper ...
Mechanics of Axial Compression of Single and Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A recently developed procedure for modeling the deformation of single and multi-wall carbon nanotubes [13,14] is applied to nanotube buckling and post-buckling under axial compression. Critical ...
