Free bending forming (FBF) is a flexible forming technology that gained significant attention
recently because of its broad applications in critical industries such as the automotive …

In the 3D free bending forming system, the bending die can be designed either in a sliding
type or rolling friction type. Bending die-based sliding friction type is often called normal …

The static bending deformation of three-roller setting round process is an elastic–plastic
secondary indeterminate problem, and belongs to the plane bending deformation. This …

In order to reveal the process principle of three-roller setting round process and optimize the
setting round strategy, the three-roller setting round process is simulated and experimented …

In this paper, a series of problems about the three-roller setting round process are studied.
The theoretical analysis of increasing the roundness by three-roller bending is carried out …

Three-point bending is one of the most common methods of studying the mechanical
performance of materials. The influence of punch radius in the measurements is not …

During manufacturing thin-walled tubes using free bending forming (FBF) technology,
defects such as wrinkling, cracking, and cross-section distortion are easy to exist due to …

Flexibly-reconfigurable roll forming (FRRF) process is recently introduced for the production
of doubly-curved sheet metal surfaces with convenient change of the curvatures for each …

In this work, we present a model for origami-based sheet metal (OSM) folding that can
predict the required bending force. OSM folding is enabled by introducing bending features …

The inner-wall loading by three-point bending about thin-walled pipe is an elastic-plastic
secondary indeterminate problem in the symmetrical three-roller setting round process. In …
