Effect of Cone Size on the Bonding Strength of Bimetallic Composite Pipes Produced by Drawing Approach

The effect of cone size on interfacial bonding strength of bimetallic composite pipe manufactured by drawing approach is studied on base of the plane strain assumption and ideal elastic-plastic model, a simple expression for the effect of cone size on the bonding strength of bimetallic composite pipes is proposed. The agreement of the predicted results with the experimental results shows the reliability.
