Popis: In order to reveal the effect laws of boosting velocity on forming quality of tube bending. A three dimensional (3D) elastic plastic finite element (FE) model of whole process of high-strength TA18 tubes in numerical control (NC) bending was established based on the FE code of ABAQUS, and its reliability was validated by using the experimental results in literature. Then, the effect laws of boosting velocity on deformation behaviors of high-strength TA18 tubes in NC bending were explored with respect to multiple defects such as wall thinning, wall thickening, cross section deformation and springback. The results show that wall thinning ratio decreases with the increasing of boosting velocity; wall thickening ratio increases with the increasing of boosting velocity; cross section deformation ratio decreases with the increasing of boosting velocity; springback decreases slightly with the increasing of boosting velocity.
