Numerical modelling of T-pipe joints forming

This paper presents results of numerical calculations of T-pipe joints (tee) forming process for a wide scope of industrial applications. FEM analyses were conducted for the chosen process technological parameters and tools designs. The kinematics of metal flow in the area of the formed flanges was analysed. Distributions of stresses, strains and damage criterion during forming were determined. Calculated values of forces and moments acting on tools and workpieces allow for designing of tools geometry for experimental verification of the proposed forming process.
