    Austenitic stainless steel is widely used in industry, decoration, food, medical machinery and other fields, and has good corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, etc. However, the oxide scale formed on the surface of austenitic stainless steel causes local cracks in the steel plate and affects the surface quality of steel during the high temperature heating process. Therefore, the high temperature oxidation behavior of austenitic stainless steel was studied, and the evolution processes of the oxide scale on the steel surface under the heating and hot rolling conditions were observed by SEM, EDS and XRD. The results show that when the temperature is 600 ℃,a thin and dense Cr2O3 oxide layer is formed on the surface of austenitic stainless steel, and with the increasing of temperature, a uniform double-layer oxide layer gradually formes on the surface of steel and thickens over time. However, when the temperature is 1250 ℃,the upper oxide scale Fe3O4 is easy to fall off and layers with the substrate, and the oxide scale with the lower layer and the substrate tightly combined is mainly composed of FeO, Cr2O3 and spinel oxide containing Si element. Furthermore, in the rolling process, the surface of the substrate undergoes cyclic oxidation and is destroyed into a broken block structure after the single layer of oxide scale falls off, and the oxide scale is mainly composed of iron oxide, Cr2O3 precipitation and FeCr2O4.

    For 10 steel, a single-pass compression test was carried out on the thermal simulator Gleeble-1500,and the size of sample was Φ10 mm×15 mm. The compression deformation temperatures were 900-1200℃, the strain rates were 0.01-10 s-1, and the compression amount was 63.2%(the true strain was 1.0). The results show that the stress of 10 steel decreases with the increasing of deformation temperature and increases with the increasing of strain rate during the high-temperature single-pass compression test, and the dynamic recrystallization phenomenon occurres during the thermal deformation of 10 steel. On the basis of this research, the critical strain model of dynamic recrystallization for 10 steel was obtained, according to the true stress-true strain curves, the dynamic recrystallization volume fractions were calculated, and the recrystallization kinetic model of 10 steel was constructed. Furthermore, the dynamic recrystallization grain size model of 10 steel was established, according to the grain sizes measured by the metallographic photos. The average absolute relative error(AARE) was introduced to verify the fitting effect of dynamic recrystallization grain size equation for 10 steel, and the value of AARE was 6.32%, indicating that the fitting effect was good.

    In order to obtain the reasonable deformation process parameters of warm forming for 7075 high strength aluminum alloy, the stress-strain curve of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy was tested by thermal simulation testing machine Gleeble-3500, and the rheological behavior of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy under the conditions of the deformation temperature of 150-300℃ and the strain rate of 0.01-10 s-1was studied. Then, the thermal processing map of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy under the strain of 0.3-0.6 was established based on Arrhenius constitutive equation, and the reliability and practicability of the thermal processing map were verified by metallographic microstructure.The results show that 7075-T6 aluminum alloy is highly sensitive to deformation temperature, strain rate and strain amount, and the thermal deformation activation energy Q is 291.151 kJ·mol-1. The fitting result of the modified Arrhenius constitutive equation is good, and the correlation coefficient r value and the average absolute error AARE are 99.65% and 5.54% respectively, which can better predict the rheological behavior of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. When the strain is 0.6, the best warm processing safe zone range is the temperature of 250-300℃ and the strain rate of 0.01-0.05 s-1.

    The evolution law of microstructure and properties for TA15 titanium alloy large forgings during thermal deformation process was studied by process test. The results show that when TA15 titanium alloy undergoes thermal deformation at 950,965 and 980℃, excessive thermal deformation occurs, and the significant recrystallization refinement in the center of forgings is found to form a "double set" structure. Furthermore, the new α-phase structure is about 3-5 μm, which is significantly different from the primary α-phase structure(about 10 μm), resulting in microstructure defects of "center bright line" in the macrostructure of forgings, and the mechanical properties such as strength and plasticity in the microstructure defects region are lower than those in the normal region. Meanwhile, it is found that with the increasing of temperature, the deformation amount decreases to less than 80%, and the generation of microstructure defects is inhibited and the performance of forgings is improved. So by exploring the formation reason of "center bright line" microstruture defects, the process conditions of suppressing microstructure defects are obtained, which provides a basis for the forming of high performance large titanium alloy integral forgings.

    A sequential stacking grouping heuristic (SSGH) algorthms was presented to solve the two-dimensional stacking cutting stock problem and determine the stacking cutting scheme,and the SSGH algorthms sequentially generated the layouts in the cutting stock scheme.For each layout,candidate blank set was formed by selecting the blanks (rectangular pieces) according to the stacking rule,and then the current layout was generated by grouping and nesting the candidate blank set.According to the stacking rule,the usage times of layout was determined,and the generation process of layout was repeated until all the requirements of blanks were met to determine the cutting stock scheme.Each time a layout was generated,the value of blank was corrected by the blank value correction algorithm until the value of blank tended to be reasonable.Furthermore,after many iterations,many different cutting stock schemes were generated,and the one with the lowest total cost was selected as the solution of stacking cutting stock problem.Experimental results show that the SSGH algorthms based on the stacking rule obviously reduces the total cost of two-dimensional stacking cutting stock problem.

    For the 6061 aluminum alloy plate with the thickness of 60 mm, the change laws of temperature, strain and stress fields of the plate during the rolling deformation process at different reduction rates were studied by Deform simulation analysis technology, and the influences on the core, 1/4 position and the surface of the plate were emphatically analyzed. Then, the texture evolution laws of different positions of the plate were studied by visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) finite element method, which provided a new method for the study of deformation behavior and anisotropy in the aluminum alloy rolling process. The results show that during the multi-pass rolling process, the maximum temperature difference between the core and surface area is not prominently affected by the reduction rate of the rolled part, and the maximum temperature difference is 10℃. The accumulative strains at the surface and 1/4 position are always greater than that at the core, the contact between rolled parts and roller causes a large stress on the surface, and it shows obvious uneven stress distribution in the local areas of rolled parts. Three typical textures on β orientation line, that are Copper texture {112}< 11-1>, Brass texture {011}< 21-1> and S texture {123}< 63-4> are formed at the surface, 1/4 position and core of rolled part. With the continuous increasing of rolling reduction rate, the volume fraction of texture increases and the texture strength also increases. Among them, the volume fraction and the strength of S texture show an obvious increasing trend, which further indicates that the strength of S texture is more sensitive to the strain change process than the other two textures.

    The manufacturing process difficulties of thermoforming door ring were studied, and based on the conventional thermoforming scheme, the integration and optimization were conducted to solve the forming wrinkling problem of door ring by using three pressing blocks. Then, the product was optimized by combining with the forming results of CAE analysis, and the rationality and feasibility of the scheme were verified by actual production. Furthermore, the deformation, cracking and deviation of welding line were mainly optimized. The analysis shows that the large flow amount of materials at the corner leads to the deformation of welding line and then cracks, so the welding line should be set in the straight section with small flow amount of material. At the same time, the CAE analysis curve of welding line is reversely output for product matching to achieve the consistency of design and manufacture, and the welding line deviation is controlled within ±3 mm in production validation. In addition, the springback mechanism and precision control method of thermoforming were further studied, and the main causes of deformation for parts are the change of stress-strain fields and thermal expansion and cold contraction caused by metallographic transformation during the cooling process of thermoforming. The CAE analysis shows that reducing the die clearance can reduce the springback of parts. In the processing data, the zoom factor 0.172% is used to compensate the thermal expansion and cold contraction of parts. After the die clearance is reduced, the springback compensation is adjusted, and the accuracy measurement is conducted with the pass rate of 95%.

    The stretch-bending process is a kind of forming method which can effectively control the shape precision of bending parts.Theoretical analytical analysis is a research method for studying the process mechanism of stretch-bending and predicting the forming quality of stretch-bending workpieces.There are currently four main methods such as standard load method based on elastoplastic theory,process analysis method based on elastoplastic theory,numerical analysis method based on energy function and difference analysis method based on strain increment theory.Among them,the method 1 gives the forming limit diagram of drawing force and bending moment for workpiece to predict the springback and residual stress distribution of workpiece with different section parameters and materials after unloading.The method 2 focuses on analyzing the stress and strain states of section to calculate the relationship between the springback of workpiece after unloading and the stretch-bending process parameters based on the stretch-bending process.The method 3 and method 4 are both simplified numerical analysis methods and are derived based on functional equations and difference equations respectively to predict the springback and section distortion of parts after stretch-bending.For the current situation that the analytic methods for researching on stretch-bending process were relatively scattered,a more feasible research direction was put forward by analyzing and summarizing the related literature on the study of analytic method for stretch-bending profile.

    The reinforcing skin with variable curvature double surround deep ribs has thin material, low forming limit and large reinforcing rib depth, its traditional rubber forming at one time is not feasible by bulging theory analysis. Therefore, based on the conclusion analysis of equivalent stress nephogram and material thickness change nephogram of reinforcing skin by PAM-STAMP 2 G rubber one-time forming, the design structure of flexible medium tooling for instability suppression and the defect control scheme of multi-pass rubber forming were determined. The combination tooling of the forming die with convex curvature rib shape and the long rubber plates was used for multi-pass rubber aggregated forming, and the combination tooling of the sizing die with concave curvature rib shape and the eyeglass frame rubber block was used for multi-pass rubber forming of buckling correction, which were tested by experiment. The results show that the orderly filling of rubber plates can realize controllable material storage, and the use of hollow flexible rubber block can realize embedded pressure-expansion sizing, which reduces the buckling deformation and springback of reinforcing skin. Thus, the multi-pass rubber forming with rigid and flexible coupling combined tooling structure can improve the height limit of the traditional rubber forming deep rib structure.

    For the two-dimensional irregular graphics nesting problem, a hybrid nesting algorithm(AGAHA) based on heuristic placement strategy and adaptive genetic algorithm was implemented. Firstly, considering the problem that the placement strategy of a single index was easy to fall into the local optimum, a hybrid placement strategy based on no-fit polygon(NFP) was proposed, which comprehensively considered the overall compactness and local compactness of the nesting effect. Then, in order to improve the efficiency of searching for the optimal solution, an adaptive genetic algorithm was used when optimizing the order of graphs. Based on the standard genetic algorithm, the crossover and mutation probabilities were adaptively changed according to changes in population fitness. Finally, the standard test cases in the literature and the cases in the actual production were used to test separately. The results show that the AGAHA algorithm is better than the ordinary genetic algorithm combined with BL algorithm in most cases, and in the actual cases, the results of AGAHA algorithm are better than the result of manual nesting.

    Since the motion trajectory of three-dimensional stretch-bending chuck for aluminum profile is generally a space curve, the aluminum profile is stretched and deformed during the stretch-bending process, and the motion trajectory of stretch-bending chuck is difficult to obtain. Therefore, a method for determining the motion trajectory of three-dimensional stretch-bending chuck for aluminum profile was proposed. Firstly, the two ends of inital aluminum profile were divided into fixed end and clamping end, and the coordinate system was established at the fixed end. Secondly, the central axis of product was extracted to discretize into several space points, and each discrete point was taken as the tangent point to make the tangent line of product central axis. Furthermore, the line segment of corresponding length was intercepted along each tangent direction(from the tangent point to the clamping end), the other end of the line segment was the space points through which the chuck motion trajectory passes, and by connecting these points in turn the trajectory of chuck was obtained. Finally, an example was given to verify the proposed method. The results show that within a certain range, with the increasing of the number of discrete points, the springback value decreases rapidly, and then as the number of discrete points continues to increase, the springback value changes little. In the analysis, the middle part is taken as the springback reference standard, and the springback value obtained is closer to the actual result.

    In sheet metal bending, springback prediction and control are the key to accurate forming of product. Therefore, for the bending springback problem of free-form surface for SUS430 stainless steel with the thickness of 0.55 mm, the finite element simulation of free-form surface bending for SUS430 stainless steel sheet was carried out by three typical anisotropic yield criteria, such as Hill48, Barlat89 and YLD2000-2 d, and combined with experimental verification, the influence laws of different yield criteria on springback amount of free-form surface bending were studied. The results show that the agreement between the simulation results of YLD2000-2 d yield criterion and the experimental results is the best, which is suitable for the finite element simulation of free-form surface bending for SUS430 stainless steel. Furthermore, there is a certain deviation between the simulation results of Barlatt89 yield criterion and the experimental results, while the difference between the simulation results of Hill48 yield criterion and the experimental results is the biggest. Based on the selection of the YLD2000-2 d yield criterion, the influence laws of the two process parameters of stamping speed and friction coefficient on the springback amount of free-form surface bending was analyzed. Within the range of reasonable process parameters, the higher the stamping speed is, the smaller the springback predicted by the numerical simulation is.

    For the problem of serious stamping springback for aluminum sheet, the solution to reduce the springback of an aluminum alloy automobile skylight reinforcing sheet was studied. Firstly, the process analysis of the part was carried out to determine the preliminary stamping process. Secondly, with the help of synchronous engineering(SE), the serious springback features of part were optimized, and the stamping processes were determined as OP10 blanking, OP20 drawing, OP30 trimming and piercing, OP40 trimming and punching and OP50 trimming and shaping. Then, the whole process simulation was conducted by software Autoform to perform overall and local springback compensations, which made the sizes of the part after springback meet the tolerance requirements. Finally, the die was adjusted based on the sheet inflow amount, and the pressure regulating gasket was used to control the fluidity of sheet and reduce the springback. The final production shows that the combination of SE, springback compensation and adjustment of sheet inflow amount can effectively reduce the springback of aluminum alloy sheet.

    For the front door inner panel of a certain type of automobile, in order to solve the crack and dark crack defects of parts in the drawing process, firstly, the production status of die and parts was briefly analyzed, and according to the forming defects, the improvement plan of adding piecrcing knife was put forward. Then, the shape of piercing knife and the piercing height were compared in multiple combinations by finite element simulation, and the optimal piecrcing knife scheme was obtained as the blank holder force of 1200 kN, the piercing kinfe shape of D-type and the piercing height of 15 mm. Finally, the effect of adding piercing knife was verified by stamping test. And there was a certain error of the break width results between the stamping test scheme and the simulation calculation. It is because that there is secondary forming process in stamping test, the recovery and softening of the material in the secondary forming process have a great impact on the stamping test results. This stamping method could be used as the basis for the trend analysis of break width, but it could not be accurately quantitative analysis.

    In order to solve the folding defect in the production process of marine connecting rod in a certain factory, the optimization analysis was conducted by software Deform. Since the folding defect of connecting rod was not accurately predicted by the folding angle that comes with the software Deform, the folding probability index was embedded in the software Deform by secondary development to predict the folding defect, and the prediction result was consistent with the actual situation. Then the cause of the folding defect in the fillet transition zone was found by material flow analysis.

    The traditional synchronous control of hydraulic press needs longer time to reach the steady-state error and can not achieve the high precision synchronous control of hydraulic press. In order to improve the working efficiency of hydraulic press, a synchronous control hydraulic system of hydraulic press with double cylinders was developed, and the control schemes of piston rod in two states for extension and retraction were given. The synchronization error compensation data was transmitted to hydraulic cylinder 2 to complete the dynamic response faster, so as to significantly reduce the displacement difference of hydraulic cylinder 2 and achieve a significant improvement in the synchronization control accuracy. Furthermore, the synchronous control was realized by the error feedback method to achieve the precise control of the synchronous operation process of double hydraulic cylinders, and the PID parameters were adjusted by the genetic algorithm to significantly improve the synchronous control precision of double-cylinder hydraulic system. Compared with the parallel control methods, the error feedback synchronous control method reduced the maximum error by 68.71% and reduced the time required to enter the steady state error by 18.52%. Thus, the precise synchronous control of the hydraulic press could be realized by the synchronous control structure.

    In order to reduce the fluctuation of rotation speed control for volumetric speed regulation system used in hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission(HMCVT), a control method of PID optimized by genetic algorithm(GA) was designed, and the simulation analysis was carried out by AMESim and MATLAB/Simulink combined software. The results show that after optimization by the control method of PID optimized by GA, the rotation speed reaches overshoot of 0.35% and shows stable state after 0.25 s. Compared with the traditional PID control method, the overshoot is reduced by 18.5%, the required adjustment time is shortened by 0.17 s, and the fluctuation of rotation speed is significantly reduced. Thus, the control method of PID optimized by GA can make the system obtain a shorter adjustment time, achieve more efficient response performance, greatly reduce the overshoot of rotation speed, significantly improve the speed regulation and stability of the system, and obtain better dynamic response performance and rotation speed control precision, which can provide favorable conditions to meet the engineering application.

    Because the tube undergoes a complex multi-pass thermal-mechanical composite processing process during the preparation process,it usually has obvious anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry,which greatly affects the formability and service performance of tube.Therefore,how to accurately and comprehensively characterize the anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry of tube and establish the corresponding constitutive model is the premise and foundation of tube forming design and manufacture.However,due to the geometrical features such as curved surface and thin wall of tube,it is difficult to measure and characterize the anisotropy and tensioncompression asymmetry of tube,and the characterization modeling of anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry for tube has always been a hot and difficult problem in the field of tube forming manufacturing in China and at abroad.Based on the above,the methods of measuring and characterizing anisotropy and tension-compression asymmetry of tube in China and at abroad in recent years were summarized,the relevant modeling methods were reviewed,and the test characterization and the constitutive modeling methods were prospected.

    With the increasing of use time for press, the fault problem of press occur frequently, which seriously affects the normal production of the factory. In order to solve this problem, the fault diagnosis of press was conducted by analyzing the vibration signal of press. For crank press JM21-160, the method of simply and accurately extracting the fault characteristics was studied by software Matlab. Based on the experimental data of the actual press, a simple method was proposed to process data by wavelet denoising and time-frequency conversion, which was based on Matlab wavelet toolbox, and the validity of this method was verified by contrast and analysis on the spectrums before and after data denoising. The result shows that this method can simplify and extract data to analyze the frequency characteristics of press fault and has reference value for press vibration signal processing and analysis in the production site.

    The high-temperature rheological behaviour and the constitutive model of A356 aluminum alloy play an important role on its stress state, which lays a significant foundation for the finite element simulation of aluminum alloy during the rheological forming process. Therefore, the tensile specimens were prepared from A356 aluminum alloy wheel hub casting billet, the isothermal tensile experiments were conducted by test machine Instron 3369 at the experimental temperature of 300-375℃ and the strain rate of 0.001-0.1 s-1. The obtained true stress-true strain curves show that the rheological stress of material is significantly affected by thermodynamic conditions such as temperature and strain rate. Based on the true stress-true strain curve, a physical model based on dislocation density theory was established to characterize the rheological stress under different thermodynamic conditions. The predicted value of the model was compared with the experimental data, and the error analysis was carried out. The results show that the established physical model can accurately predict the high-temperature tensile rheological behaviour of A356 aluminum alloy.

    Aiming at the non-linear flow problem caused by dead zone of electro-hydraulic servo valve without spool displacement, based on the analysis of the dead zone model of electro-hydraulic servo valve, a compensation model for the dead zone of electro-hydraulic servo valve with differential pressure feedback was designed to achieve the compensation function of dead zone without displacement feedback. Then, the simulation compensation voltage signal was added to the control system of electro-hydraulic servo valve, and the flow rate of proportional flow valve was rapidly compensated by setting the "voltage-flow" slope of the proportional flow valve in different changing stages. According to the difference of the dead zone for electro-hydraulic servo valve under different inlet and outlet differential pressure, the compensation analysis for the dead zone of electro-hydraulic servo valve was carried out. The simulation results show that under the static control characteristics, when the inlet and outlet differential pressure rises from 2 MPa to 6 MPa, the spool displacement decreases by nearly 0.1 mm(maximum), and the flow dead zone shrinks by about 2%. However, under the dynamic control characteristics, the proposed compensation method reduces the dead zone of electro-hydraulic servo valve to 3%, and the compensation method is completely feasible.

    In order to study the high temperature hardness of three commonly used hot work die steels and the change laws of wear rate and friction coefficient at 100 and 300℃, the laws for the hardness, friction coefficient and wear rate changing with temperature for three types of hot work die steels were obtained by high temperature hardness test and high temperature friction-wear test. The results show that the hardness gradually decreases with the increasing of temperature. Although the surface nitriding treatment greatly increases the hardness of the material, the hardness decreases more obviously with the increasing of temperature after nitriding treatment. At 300℃, the resistance to deformation of the pin-disk contact surface is reduced, and the friction coefficient between material and plate is less than that at 100℃. At the same time, the pin surface produces a thicker oxide layer at 300℃, and the wear rate is less than that at 100℃. The surface nitriding treatment of the material improves the wear resistance of the material at 100℃, but at 300℃, the wear amount increases instead. Thus, the test results provide reliable basic data support for the selection of mold materials and the improvement of mold wear resistance.
