摘要：
The success of a tube hydroforming (THF) process is highly dependent on the loading paths (axial feed versus pressure) used. Finite element (FE)-based simulation was used to determine optimum loading paths for hydroforming of structural parts with different tubular materials. Experimental and simulation results have demonstrated that FE-based loading paths can significantly reduce trial and error, enhance productivity and expand the THF capability in forming complex parts. The test results also demonstrated that the reliability of the FE-based loading paths is highly dependent on the accuracy of the material properties of the blank, interface friction, and how close the properties of the welding zone are to the base material of the tubular blank.
