Staking is a cold metal joining process widely used in the manufacture of self-lubricating spherical plain aerospace bearings. These are used to form components such as tie-rod links or threaded rod ends as often seen on control surfaces for rotary w...

An iterative numerical approach to evaluate the variable friction coefficient of steel AMS5643 using ring compression tests (2023)
Journal Article
The coefficient of friction is an important variable that must be defined to allow the accurate prediction of the forming geometry and stresses involved in metal forming processes. Literature reports have shown that the coefficient of friction does n...

Exploring the potential for a FEA-based design of experiments to develop design tools for bulk-metal joining processes (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Over the last 20 years, finite element analysis (FEA) has become a standard analysis tool for metal joining processes. When FEA tools are combined with design of experiments (DOE) methodologies, academic research has shown the potential for virtual D...
