Metal Forming: Mechanics and Metallurgy

Buy
My coauthor Robert Caddell died in 1990. I have greatly missed interacting with him.

The biggest changes from the second edition are an enlargement and reorganization of the last third of the book, which deals with sheet metal forming. Changes have been made to the chapters on bending, plastic anisotropy, and cup drawing. An entire chapter has been devoted to forming limit diagrams. There is one chapter on various aspects of stampings, including the use of tailor-welded blanks, and another on other sheetforming operations, including hydroforming of tubes. Sheet testing is covered in a separate chapter. The chapter on sheet metal properties has been expanded to include newer materials and more depth on aluminum alloys.

In addition, some changes have been made to the chapter on strain-rate sensitivity. A treatment of friction and lubrication has been added. A short treatment of swaging has been added. End-of-chapter notes have been added for interest and additional end-of-chapter references have been added.

No attempt has been made in this book to introduce numerical methods such as finite element analyses. The book Metal Forming Analysis by R. H. Wagoner and J. L. Chenot (Cambridge University Press, 2001) covers the latest numerical techniques. We feel that one should have a thorough understanding of a process before attempting numerical techniques. It is vital to understand what constitutive relations are imbedded in a program before using it. For example, the use of Hill’s 1948 anisotropic yield criterion can lead to significant errors.

Joining techniques such as laser welding and friction welding are not covered.

I wish to acknowledge the membership in the North American Deep Drawing Group from which I have learned much about sheet metal forming. Particular thanks are given to Alejandro Graf of ALCAN, RobertWagoner of the Ohio State University, John Duncan of the University of Auckland, Thomas Stoughton and David Meuleman of General Motors, and Edmund Herman of Creative Concepts.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Life Lessons from the Dog: 101 Tales of Family, Friendship & Fun
We learn so much from our canine companions, and along the way they keep us company, provide unconditional love, and share in the ups and downs of our lives.
 
What do we learn from our dogs? Everything. Our dogs make us better people. If we rescued them, they rescue us back. If we’re sad, they comfort us. If we

Numerical Analysis

The new Seventh Edition of Burden and Faires' well-respected Numerical Analysis provides a foundation in modern numerical-approximation techniques. Explaining how, why, and when the techniques can be expected to work, the Seventh Edition places an even greater emphasis on building readers' intuition to help them understand why the...


Visualizing Data Patterns with Micromaps (Chapman & Hall/CRC Interdisciplinary Statistics)
Visualizing Data Patterns with Micromaps (Chapman & Hall/CRC Interdisciplinary Statistics)

After over fifteen years of research and trial and error, micromap designs have evolved to the point where they are slowly finding their way into mainstream statistical visualizations. Now seems to be a good time to pull all of the work together into a book in order to introduce micromaps to a wide range of people interested in...

Besieged: An Encyclopedia of Great Sieges From Ancient Times To The Present
Besieged: An Encyclopedia of Great Sieges From Ancient Times To The Present
Civilization began with the creation of cities, the congregation of people for mutual support. By their very decision to assemble and collect resources, cities became targets for raiding populations that found taking someone else’s possessions easier than producing their own. The need for defense meant that the towns soon built walls around...

LightWave 3D 8 Lighting (Wordware Game and Graphics Library)
This book is divided into three main parts: theory, tools, and practice.
Part I covers the fundamentals of what light is, how it acts and reacts in
our world, and what those reactions look like. Part II covers the virtual
lighting equipment available to achieve your LightWave lighting goals.
Part III deals with how to use those
