... 19 09 2011 Tube Hydroforming (THF) is a metal-forming process that uses a pressurized fluid in place of a hard tool to plastically deform a given tube into a desired shape. In addition to the internal pressure, the tube material is fed axially toward the die cavity. One...

... 22 04 2011 It was recently demonstrated that significant increases in formability in tube hydroforming (THF) can be achieved if the load is applied in a pulsed, as opposed to the monotonic, manner. The frequency of such loading is of the order of 1 Hz, and the benefits can be observed...
