The Manufacturing Engineering Research Centre (MERC) of the University of Strathclyde is
one of several locations for the research and development of high-precision material …

Systematic understanding of dimensional difference between forging tools and forged
components is tried by both experimental and FEM analysis. The difference is mainly …

Tooth variations in spur bevel gears have significant effects on the transmission
performance, noise, and vibration and directly affect the reliability and stationarity of …

An application-oriented finite-element approach to forging die structural analysis is
presented in this paper. The die set structural analysis problem is formulated as a contact …

Since the dimensional accuracy of forged parts are largely influenced by elastic behaviors of
the tool material. The characteristics of elastic deformation at a forming tool are evaluated for …

A novel roller form, a deep end-cavity roller, is proposed for roller-type bearings, with a view
to reducing the weight of the structure and the centrifugal forces acting on the outer race of …

The dimension of cold-forged part is different from that of the forging tool. The difference is
influenced with various features. In this study, FEM analyses are performed to investigate the …

The dimensions of die and workpiece change continuously throughout the loading,
unloading, and ejecting stages in cold forging. To predict the precise dimension of forged …

The thermal and elastic behaviour of both the component and the forming tool have a
significant effect on accuracy of high-precision forming operations. FE simulation of material …

Nett-shape manufacturing of engineering components is a major objective of modern
material-conversion industries: relevant technologies depend on tools in which error …
