A numerical solution for analysis of the bulging process of a thin-walled tube under internal pressure and axial force is proposed. The solution is applied to a case in which the longitudinal stress resulted from internal pressure and external compressive load is tensile along the whole length of the bulged tube. To verify whether the solution is applicable, theoretical and experimental results on the bulging of copper tubes have been obtained and are compared in this paper.

Ratcheting and fatigue damage of thin-walled tube under cyclic bending and steady internal pressure is studied. Chaboche's nonlinear kinematic hardening model extended by considering the effect of continuum damage mechanics employed to predict ratcheting. Lemaitre damage model [Lemaitre, J. and Desmorat, R. [2005] Engineering Damage Mechanics (Springer-Verlag, Berlin)] which is appropriate for low cyclic loading is used. Also the evolution features of whole-life ratcheting behavior and low cycle fatigue (LCF) damage of the tube are discussed. A simplified method related to the thin-walled tube under bending and internal pressure is used and compared well with experimental results. Bree's interaction diagram with boundaries between shakedown and ratcheting zone is determined. Whole-life ratcheting of thin-walled tube reduces obviously with increase of internal pressure.

Abstract Liquid Impact Forming (LIF) is a new composite forming technology based on Tube Hydroforming (THF) technology, which changes the volume of mould cavity through impact load and rapidly generates internal pressure to realize tube forming. It does not need external pressure supply source, and it is low cost and high efficiency. In order to study the forming characteristics of the natural bulging area of thin-walled metal tubes under different model side lengths and different model closing velocities, the change of the cavity volume of thin-walled metal tubes under impact hydraulic bulging was firstly analyzed theoretically, and a mathematical model of internal pressure was established. Then the effects of different loading parameters on the internal pressure, bulging height and wall thickness distribution in the natural bulging area of thin-walled metal tube were studied. Finally, through the comparison of finite element simulation analysis and experiment, it was found that the deviation between the experimental results and the numerical simulation was within 5%, which verified the accuracy and reliability of LIF. It also provides a certain theoretical research and application basis for the development of LIF of metal thin-walled tube.

Due to their high strength, high performance, and lightweight characteristics, bent tubes are widely used in many high-end industries, such as aviation, aerospace, shipbuilding, automobile, and petrochemical industries. Ultra-thin-walled (thickness-to-diameter ratio t/D < 0.01) bent tubes are more prone to wrinkling, fracture, and cross-section distortion than ordinary bent tubes, which are difficult to form integrally by traditional bending processes. In this paper, a new bending process with combined loading of hydraulic pressure, push, and pull was proposed to provide a new method for the bending of ultra-thin-walled tube. This process is characterized by the ability to optimize the combination of push, pull, and internal pressure according to the actual bending process in order to minimize the wrinkling of ultra-thin-walled tube during bending. Based on ABAQUS finite element (FE) software, the FE model of the hydraulic push-pull bending process for ultra-thin-walled tube was established. The influence of internal pressure, die clearance, and friction coefficient on the forming quality of bent tubes was discussed, and the optimum process parameters were obtained. Bent tubes with an initial thickness of 0.3 mm, diameter of 60 mm, and bending radius of 165 mm were manufactured in experiments. Through the comparative analysis of experiment and simulation, the accuracy of the FE simulation was verified.
