••
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the internal pressure and axial force loading paths in tube hydroforming process and optimized them using simulated annealing optimization method to obtain the optimal loading paths for tube hydroformation of axisymmetric geometries under a failure criterion based on the maximum allowable thinning and von-Mises stress.

TL;DR: Based on the hydromechanical deep drawing (HDD) with uniform pressure onto the blank, the multi-sheet hydroforming with the very thin middle layer is investigated in this paper.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of friction coefficient, material ductility and hydro bulging condition on the hydroformability of various thin tubes are discussed and an implicit integration scheme for local time integration of the constitutive equations and a dynamic explicit resolution scheme to solve the associated dynamic equilibrium problem are used.

••
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental program has been carried out to study the effect of main process parameters such as the initial pressure, sheet thickness, sheet material properties, punch geometry, punch load, and drawing ratio on the drawing performance.
