The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of alloying elements and thermo-mechanical treatment (TMT) i.e. hot rolling and forging with different reduction ratios on the hardness (HV) and impact toughness (J) of heat-treated low alloy steels. An understanding of the combined effect of TMT and alloying elements and by measuring hardness, impact toughness, resulting from differen...

By using fusion welding to weld AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel (ASS) and commercial copper, the creation of brittle intermetallic in region that compromises strength joints is primary challenge. However, friction a suitable method for joining these two materials because no obvious defects are produced at joints. The joint significantly influenced by friction-welding-process variables inclu...

The article concern the influences of the novel flash structure with resistance wall on the forming load and die wear during the closed-die forging process. If the geometrical parameters of the resistance wall are not properly designed, the forming load and die wear may be great; this can affect the life of the forging die. Yet, no procedure is known to optimize and decide this flash structure ...

By the analysis on traditional methods for rules of flash metal consume design, the idea of regression mining for flash metal consume design is proposed. Then according to related definitions, we construct a linear regression model. Its parameter estimation method and significant test methods of linear correlation are discussed in detail. We also analyze the method of applying mathematical stat...

In a closed die forging process, it is impossible to form complex shapes in one stage, and thus it becomes necessary to use preform dies. In the present study, Backward Deformation Method and FE simulation via ABAQUS software has been used in order to design preform die of the H-shaped parts. In the Backward Deformation Method, the final shape of the part is considered as a starting point and u...
