n this work, hydroforming of X-shape pipe connection made of copper is investigated by experiment and numerical simulation. The length of the connection branch is always a concern. The main purpose of the work is the study of the effect of the branch end boundary condition and the load path on the branch height. An elastic material (called the constraint), such as a spring, is used for controlling the branch to grow to a certain extent. It is shown that the branch end condition, if designed properly, gives rise to the considerable increase in the branch length. The increase, however, depends also on the load path which must be determined by experiment or numerical simulation. |
