Abstract:Nosing process of circular metal tubes in empty and polyurethane foam-filled conditions on a semispherical rigid die was analyzed by theoretical and experimental methods. A new theoretical model of plastic deformation of circular metal tubes was demonstrated during the nosing process on a rigid semispherical die. Based on the analytical model, some theoretical relations were calculated to estimate instantaneous forming load and dissipated energy of empty and foam-filled circular metal tubes versus axial displacement. Some circular brazen and aluminum tubes were prepared and shaped into semispherical nosed nozzles to verify the present theory. Comparison of theoretical predictions and the corresponding experimental measurements reveals that predicted load-displacement and dissipated energy-displacement diagrams by theoretical formulas have a good correlation with the corresponding experimental curves and it proves verity of the theory. Also, the present theory shows that dissipated energy and axial load of empty tubes depend on material type, wall thickness and diameter of the tubes and they are independent of tube initial length. Furthermore, the experimental results show that the presence of polyethylene Teflon-constraints increases ultimate axial displacement of the forming process.
