STC F - Forming
Chairman: Prof. Jun Yanagimoto
Vice-Chairman: Prof. Stefania Bruschi
Secretary: Prof. Brad Kinsey
STC F deals with processes in which the final shape is conferred by plastic deformation of monolithic materials, composites or hybrid material in any form of original shape; or by pressure joining and the separation processes, which include:
- Application of the theory of plasticity to all industrial forming processes, together with the tribological and materials engineering aspects
- Theoretical and experimental research for technological and economic optimization of processes, forming machines, dies and molds
- Process modelling, simulation and data processing for production planning and control
- Sensing and data analytics for process optimization
- Terminology, symbols and standards for forming processes and machines
