Pipe diameter and pipe thickness effect on the plastic deformation behaviour of austenitic stainless steels

A. Di Schino ; Università di Perugia, Dipartimento di Ingegneria, Perugia. Italy

Abstract

The high quality standards required for metal forming call for compliance tests aimed to guarantee that such standards are faced. Such tests often implies a waste of time and of economic resources. In particular, if stainless steel pipe forming is considered, many factors need to be taken into account. Scope of the work presented in this paper is to analyse the effect of different process parameters and geometrical constrains on the cold forming of austenitic stainless steel pipes by Finite Element Method (FEM). Results of such analysis will allow to map the effect of different parameters.
