By using biaxial gas-pressure forming method, it is possible to predict sheet metal forming behavior during hot forming process. The purpose of this study is to investigate the deformation behavior during equi-biaxial forming of a duplex stainless steel using conical and hemispherical dies. The present study constructs an analysis model to predict biaxial sheet forming behavior of duplex steel from results of tension tests. The results demonstrate that the developed technology to process design of high temperature gas-pressure forming by the finite element method can be applied to various types of components.

Hot extrusion is a metal forming process with a huge importance in the manufacturing of long metallic bars with complex shapes, and because of this, academics and industries are especially interested in better understanding how metal flows during the process. In order to have a reliable computational tool that can help to solve and to obtain material internal flow, experimental tests and numerical simulation with the finite element method were carried out to obtain results of the velocity fields generated in hot direct extrusion of aluminum billets (aluminum alloy 6351). The experimental results of the velocity field will be used to validate a computational code based on the finite volume method.

Specimens of lean duplex and duplex stainless steel were exposed at 200°C in industrial white liquor from a Brazilian kraft mill using an autoclave to simulate the same conditions of digester processing. Tafel extrapolation method and weight loss were used to evaluate corrosion behavior of duplex steel in white liquor. The higher alloy steel, although presenting a lower corrosion rate than the lean duplex, presents a more severe selective attack on ferrite, at 200°C and 1.8 MPa, after Tafel extrapolation method in industrial white liquor.

The UNS S32205 duplex stainless steel was warm rolled at 600°C with 60 and 80% of thickness reduction. The microstructure was characterized by optical, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry and EBSD. The corrosion resistance was evaluated by electrochemical behavior in the chlorine ion environment using potentiodynamic polarization measurements. The tensile strength reached 1185 MPa and 1328 MPa, after warm rolling with 60 and 80%, respectively. In steel as-supplied, hot rolled and annealed, the tensile strength was 774 MPa. Ferrite microtexture presented the α-fiber and the rotated cube component, while the austenite enhanced the brass, copper, and cube components to a lesser extent. The substructure was characterized by intense formation of tangles and forests of dislocations and discrete subgrains in the ferritic phase and by planar gliding of dislocations and formation of dense dislocations walls in the austenite. Despite the existence of a certain similarity among the values of pitting potentials obtained for all samples, the number of pits observed was higher in the as-received sample, followed by the samples with 60 and 80% reduction. These results draw attention to innovative routes in the industrial production of duplex stainless steel of this class, even considering ductility lost.

During the process of workpiece productions in metal forming industries, it is necessary to control the results of the reshaped piece to ensure its quality. A common procedure of metal plate forming processes is given by the application of an upper and lower die. Therefore, ribbed die configurations can be used. To simulate the forming process of metal workpieces, the Finite Element Method (FEM) is a feasible tool. In this paper, a parametric model of a ribbed die structure is developed with the specification that only small imperfections on the workpiece surfaces will appear after the forming process. The workpieces in this paper are plates with thickness values equal and greater than 20mm. Furthermore, the springback behaviour of the different workpieces will be in the main focus of the proposed analyses. The results of the simulations are used to developed different types of holder configurations instead of the lower die. This concept might further reduce the costs of forming processes of large metal plates.

In the solid state bonding, joint are made by pressing surfaces together at high temperature so that a bond grows across the interface by atomic diffusion. In order to satisfy both requirements of thermal and mechanical properties of aerospace vehicle, conductive CuCrZr alloy was bonded to duplex steel with high strength. Solid state bonding was performed at 3 different pressure conditions and at temperatures of 850°C and 950°C. Microstructural and mechanical evaluation was performed to obtain the optimum joining condition.

In this paper, a constitutive equation for superplasticity, which is based on the microstructural mechanism of superplastic deformation taking into account the effects of deformation damage, is incorporated into the finite element method to simulate the superplastic forming process. The effects of strain rate sensitivity, cavity growth and imposed hydrostatic pressure on the strain limit are studied. The predicted results are validated through the comparison with the existing experimental data. It is found that the present model produces accurate results in all cases.
