Abstract

Through analyzing the stress state and deformation of pipe bending using local induction heating with small bending
radius, a computer simulation system has been developed based on the FEM software ANSYS and finite strain elasto
plastic theory. The results, such as the thinning and thickening ratio of the pipe wall thickness, the pushing force with or
without a reverse moment acting on the bending arm, the proper reverse moment that is to be applied on the bending
