In this study, non-uniform heating approach in warm T-joint forming process is attempted for the AZ31 magnesium alloy tube. For this purpose, finite element simulation is performed to analyze the appropriate temperature distribution. The validity of the finite element(FE) model of T-joint tube hydroforming(THF) is verified by comparing the FE simulation and experimental results. Using this FE model, appropriate temperature distribution was suggested. In addition, it was showed that the wall thickness could be more uniform by optimizing the temperature condition.

AbstractThe paper reports a selection of numerical and experimental results of a new closed-die forging method for producing AZ31 magnesium alloy aircraft brackets with one rib. The numerical modelling of the new forming process was performed by the finite element method.The distributions of stresses, strains, temperature and forces were examined. The numerical results confirmed that the forgings produced by the new forming method are correct. For this reason, the new forming process was verified experimentally. The experimental results showed good agreement with the numerical results. The produced forgings of AZ31 magnesium alloy aircraft brackets with one rib were then subjected to qualitative tests.

Both experimentation and calculation of the Yada model modulus of casting AZ31 magnesium alloy are provided in this paper. Based on revised Yada model, the microstructure simulation of precision forming inner gear is performed using Superform software. On the basisi of result analysis, the microstructure transformation of the casting magnesium alloy in the hot-forming process is forecasted in terms of revised Yada model.
