Earth’s gravity has long dictated how we build, but a University of Florida engineering team is determined to rewrite the rules – by leaving the planet behind altogether. Associate Professor Victoria ...

Over the years, the rows of metal slats lining the beds of flat sheet laser cutting machines have become a staple in many ...

In order to improve the forming quality, it is vital to understand the mechanisms that cause the plastic strain localization which eventually leads to ductile damage occurrence in the incremental ...

Deformation processes transform solid materials from one shape into another. The initial shape is usually simple (e.g., a billet or sheet blank) and is plastically deformed between tools, or dies, to ...
