This book provides essential information on metal forming,
utilizing a practical distinction between bulk and sheet metal
forming. In the field of bulk forming, it examines processes of
cold, warm and hot bulk forming, as well as rolling and a new
addition, the process of thixoforming. As for the field of sheet
metal working, on the one hand it deals with sheet metal forming
processes (deep drawing, flange forming, stretch drawing, metal
spinning and bending). In terms of special processes, the chapters
on internal high-pressure forming and high rate forming have been
revised and refined. On the other, the book elucidates and presents
the state of the art in sheet metal separation processes (shearing
and fineblanking). Furthermore, joining by forming has been added
to the new edition as a new chapter describing mechanical methods
for joining sheet metals.
The new chapter Basic Principles addresses both sheet metal and
bulk forming, in addition to metal physics, plastomechanics and
computational basics; these points are complemented by the newly
added topics of metallography and analysis, materials and processes
for testing, and tribology and lubrication techniques. The chapters
are supplemented by an in-depth description of modern numeric
methods such as the finite element method. All chapters have been
updated and revised for the new edition, and many practical
examples from modern manufacturing processes have been added.
