High temperature aniso-thermal-mechanical analysis of superplastic forming tools

The main objective of the thesis is to establish a methodology to analyse the anisothermo-mechanical behaviour of a representative large industrial Superplastic Forming (SPF) tool made of XN40F material (40% Ni, 20% Cr, Balance Fe) to identify and evaluate different failure mechanisms to improve and...
