Best Responses

This paper reports the results of an experiment designed to investigate how legal regimes affect social welfare. We investigate four legal regimes, each consisting of a liability rule (strict or negligence) and a damage measure (out-of-pocket or independent-of-investment). The results of the experiment are for the most part consistent with the qualitative predictions of Schwartz's (1997) model; however, subjects' actual choices deviate from the point predictions of the model. We explore whether these deviations arise because: (1) subjects form faulty anticipations of their counterparts' actions and/or (2) subjects do not choose the optimal responses given their anticipations. We find that subjects behave differently under the four regimes in terms of anticipation errors and departures from best responses. For example, subjects playing the role of auditors anticipate investments most accurately under the regime with strict liability combined with out-of-pocket damages, but are least likely to choose the optimal response given their anticipations. This finding implies that noneconomic factors likely play a role in determining subjects' choices.

Incremental sheet forming is one of the latest processes in sheet metal forming industry which has drawn attention of various researchers. It has shown improved formability compared to stamping process. Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) process requires only hemispherical tool and no die is required hence, it is a die-less forming process. In this paper experimental investigation on SPIF for Aluminium sheet has been presented. A groove test on Vertical Machining Centre has been performed. Factors (Step depth, Blank holder clamping area, Backing plate radius, Program strategy, Feed rate and Tool diameter) affecting the process are identified and experiments are carried out using fractional factorial design of experiments. Effect of the factors on fractured depth, forming time and surface finish have been analyzed using Minitab 17 software.

The Relationship

This work aims to optimize the process parameters for improving the wall thickness distribution of the sheet superplastic forming process of AA7075 alloy. The considered factors include forming pressure p (MPa), deformation temperature T (°C), and forming time t (minutes), while the responses are the thinning degree of the wall thickness ε (%) and the relative height of the product h*. First, a series of experiments are conducted in conjunction with response surface method (RSM) to render the relationship between inputs and outputs. Subsequently, an analysis of variance (ANOVA) is conducted to verify the response significance and parameter effects. Finally, a numerical optimization algorithm is used to determine the best forming conditions. The results indicate that the thinning degree of 13.121% is achieved at the forming pressure of 0.7 MPa, the deformation temperature of 500°C, and the forming time of 31 minutes.

Hybrid superplastic forming (SPF) is a novel sheet metal forming technique that combines hot drawing with gas forming process. Compared with the conventional SPF process, the thickness distribution of AZ31B part formed by this hybrid SPF method has been significantly improved. Additionally, the microstructure evolution of AZ31 was examined by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Many subgrains with low misorientation angle were observed in the coarse grains during SPF. Based on the tensile test results, parameters of hyperbolic sine creep law model was determined at 400 oC. The hybrid SPF behavior of non-superplastic grade AZ31B was predicted by ABAQUS using this material forming model. The FEM results of thickness distribution, thinning characteristics and forming height were compared with the experimental results and have shown reasonable agreement with each other.
