This paper is devoted to the determination of the coefficient of friction (COF) in the drawbead
region in metal forming processes. As the test material, AW-5251 aluminium alloys sheets …

U-bending tests are the most common method to predict springback and are influenced by
the process and geometrical variables in addition to material behaviour. It needs a …

The present investigation examined the impact of thermal cycling applied during the painting
of sheet steels and the transfer period in the forming of W-temper heat treatment of high …

Cylinder bore coatings are widely used in automotive internal combustion engines to
replace cylinder liners. During the atmospheric plasma spraying process, the coatings are …

Stamping is a process applied in the automotive industry to obtain complex parts through
