Abstract:The use of tube hydroforming process to produce integrated parts is growing in various industries. In this research, the hydroforming process has been used to convert the circular cross-section of the tube into a square one. In this process, due to the high hydrostatic pressure of the fluid, the friction in the contact area between the tube and the die surface increases significantly. High friction prevents the metal flowing of the tube material on the die surface and therefore it becomes very difficult to com… Show more
