Numerical Simulation and Experiment of Electrically-Assisted Incremental Forming of Thin TC4 Titanium Alloy Sheet

In order to integrally manufacture the large TC4 titanium alloy part, an electrically-assisted incremental forming process is cleverly proposed to solve the traditional hot forming disadvantages of expensive heating furnaces and long cycle period. The two-step simulation method including thermal-ele...
