In the present study, rubber pad forming process of metallic bipolar plates of PEM fuel cells
is investigated. A 3D finite element model of the process with damage initiation criterion is …

In this study, the effects of sheet thickness and anisotropy of AA2024-T4 on forming limit
curve (FLC) are experimentally investigated according to ISO 12004-2 standard. A new limit …

Small-scale and multi-axial testing of sheet metals, particularly of lightweight alloys and
advanced steels are becoming important as these materials exhibit forming behavior …

The formability of aluminum alloy 6061-T6 sheet was evaluated, and the effects of
temperature and strain rate on the formability were analyzed. Uniaxial tension tests and …

The most common failure criterion in sheet metal forming operations is the forming limit
diagram (FLD). Typically, the FLD is evaluated with the Nakajima test, which is a stretch …

Commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) has been actively used in the plate heat exchanger due
to its light weight, high specific strength, and excellent corrosion resistance. However …

The use of computer simulation to imitate physical processes has proven to be a time-
efficient and cost-effective way of performing scenario testing for process optimisation in …

In the field of mobility, increased safety and emission requirements lead to steadily rising
demands on materials used and their performance. Over the last decades, 5000 and 6000 …
