Abstract

Purpose

With the discussion on the linear relationship of determined material parameters, this study aims to propose a new method to analyze the deformation mechanism.

Design/methodology/approach

A modified constitutive model based on the hyperbolic sine Arrhenius equation has been established, which is applied to describe the flow behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy during the superplastic forming (SPF).

Findings

The modified constitutive model in this work has a good ability to describe the flow behavior for Ti-6Al-4V in SPF. Besides, a deformation map of titanium material is obtained based on the parameters. As the supplement, finite element models of high-temperature tensile tests are carried out as the application of the constitutive model.

Originality/value

The relationship between constitutive model parameters and forming mechanism is established, which is a new angle in rheological behavior research and constitutive model analysis.

Abstract

Purpose

When manufacturing an arc-shaped tube product using push bending process, the transition zone and outfeed zone will inevitably occur. Transition zone and outfeed zone are caused by the kinematical motion of mobile tools. The existence of transition zone and outfeed zone will lead to a big deviation between the forming product and desired shape. To improve the forming quality of arc-shaped products in push bending, the transition zone and outfeed zone are investigated in this paper.

Design/methodology/approach

A piecewise function is used to describe the bending characteristics along bending line, in which a series of vibration parameters are extracted and considered as control values.

Findings

The new strategy is helpful for finding the relationship between tools motion and curvature distribution and improving the bending lines design procedure in flexible push bending.

Originality/value

The new strategy is helpful for finding the relationship between tools motion and curvature distribution and improving the bending lines design procedure in flexible push bending.

Abstract

Purpose

The existing traditional recommendations based on content-based filtering (CBF), collaborative filtering (CF) and hybrid approaches are inadequate for recommending practice challenges in programming online judge (POJ). These systems only consider the preferences of the target users or similar users to recommend items. In the learning environment, recommender systems should consider the learning path, knowledge level and ability of the learner. Another major problem in POJ is the learners don't give ratings to practice challenges like e-commerce and video streaming portals. This purpose of the proposed approach is to overcome the abovementioned shortcomings.

Design/methodology/approach

To achieve the context-aware practice challenge recommendation, the data preparation techniques including implicit rating extraction, data preprocessing to remove outliers, sequence-based learner clustering and utility sequence pattern mining approaches are used in the proposed approach. The approach ensures that the recommender system considers the knowledge level, learning path and learning goals of the learner to recommend practice challenges.

Findings

Experiments on practice challenge recommendations conducted using real-world POJ dataset show that the proposed system outperforms other traditional approaches. The experiment also demonstrates that the proposed system is recommending challenges based on the learner's current context. The implicit rating extracted using the proposed approach works accurately in the recommender system.

Originality/value

The proposed system contains the following novel approaches to address the lack of rating and context-aware recommendations. The mathematical model was used to extract ratings from learner submissions. The statistical approach was used in data preprocessing. The sequence similarity-based learner clustering was used in transition matrix. Utilizing the rating as a utility in the USPAN algorithm provides useful insights into learner–challenge relationships.
