The main objective of this paper is to study the influence of longitudinal ultrasonic vibrations
on the tube spinning process. A robust experimental tube spinning system was designed …

Flow forming is a plastic deformation process to produce thin-walled and high-precision
cylindrical components. In this study, the hot flow forming of Mg–8.5 Al–0.5 Zn–0.2 Mn …

Flow forming is a metal-forming process for producing axisymmetric hollowed tubes starting
from cylindrical workpieces. In cases where the preformed tube includes defects, impurities …

In the present study, the phenomenon of diametric growth in the forward flow forming
process has been studied through finite element simulation and experimental investigation …

The primary objective of this study is to predict the geometric shape and thickness change
during multi-pass tube spinning to a hemispherical shape. A computationally efficient …

The present study reports the effects of variation in preform heat treatment on the flow
formability and mechanical properties of flow formed tubes of AISI4340 steel. Preforms are …

The effects of thickness reduction on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an
AA5052 aluminum alloy were investigated in this work during flow forming at room …

Forward tube spinning (or flow forming) is usually employed to produce cylindrically tubular
components to meet the increasing requirements for manufacturing high-performance and …
