Influences of Process Parameters and Vibration Parameters on the Forming Force in the Ultrasonic-Assisted Incremental Forming Process by Lang Bai, Yan Li, Mingshun Yang, Zimeng Yao, Zhiyuan Yao

“…Compared with the simulation results, the theoretical results are not only closer to the experimental results but also have a shorter computation time and better prediction effect on the forming force. The change in the process parameters has a linear effect on the forming force, the nonlinearity of the vibratory parameters influences the forming force, and the frequencies and amplitudes in a suitable range allow the forming force to reach a minimum value. …”
