Friction and heat partition coefficients in incremental sheet forming process (2024)
Journal Article
Qin, Z., Gatea, S., & Ou, H. (2024). Friction and heat partition coefficients in incremental sheet forming process. Journal of Manufacturing Processes, 124, 503-523. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmapro.2024.06.015

To understand the thermo-mechanical behaviour in incremental sheet forming (ISF), it is important to precisely determine the interfacial and thermal-relevant parameters including coefficient of friction (COF) and heat partition coefficient (HPC), and...

A new hybrid stretch forming and double-layer two-point incremental sheet forming process (2024)
Journal Article
Zhao, X., & Ou, H. (2024). A new hybrid stretch forming and double-layer two-point incremental sheet forming process. Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 30, 3485-3509. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmrt.2024.04.093

This research presents a new hybrid stretch forming and double-layer two-point incremental sheet forming (hybrid stretch forming and DL-TPIF). The novelty of the proposed hybrid process is first to employ double-layer blank sheets in the conventi...

Heat-assisted friction stir incremental sheet forming of thermoplastics (2024)
Journal Article
Zhu, H., & Ou, H. (2024). Heat-assisted friction stir incremental sheet forming of thermoplastics. Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 328, Article 118396. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmatprotec.2024.118396

Incremental sheet forming (ISF) has been attracting increasing interests for customised manufacture of thermoplastics, but the application in high-performance and hard-to-form thermoplastics is still a challenge. This paper develops a new heat-assist... Read More about Heat-assisted friction stir incremental sheet forming of thermoplastics.
