چکیده
The objective of this paper is to investigate the viscous shear heating effect on the formation of minimum film thickness in inlet zone of the hydrostatic extrusion process as function of various operating parameters. Minimum film thicknesses in the inlet zone has been evaluated at various extrusion speeds, material parameters, extrusion pressures, and die semiangle for extrusion of low strength material. A strong numerical technique is used in the investigation of inlet zone of a hydrostatic extrusion process considering viscous shear heat generation and convection & conduction modes of heat removals for the study of the minimum film thickness.

Experimental and Finite Element Analyses of the Hydrostatic Cyclic Expansion Extrusion (HCEE) Process with Back-Pressure
It is generally known that severe plastic deformation processes with back pressure not only apply higher hydrostatic stress and more deformation compared to what a regular process can apply to a workpiece but also prevent surface defects in the workpiece during the process. Hydrostatic cyclic expansion extrusion (HCEE) was developed recently for processing long ultrafine-grained metals and allo...

Friction stir welding (FSW) is an economic and high quality technique at aluminum welding and joining methods. The most important factor in the soundness of this type of welding, is the mechanism of material transfer in each tool rotation. The materials transfer during the welding process involves horizontal and vertical movement that caused by extrusion process and forging force (the tilt angl...
