Strain distribution of Al 1100 was numerically investigated during cyclic expansion extrusion (CEE) process using finite element method (FEM). Die angle, corner fillet radius and die chamber diameter were considered as die parameters and friction factor and number of passes as process parameters. The effects of these parameters were investigated on the effective strain and strain homogeneity in...

the scope of this research is to investigate the effect of geometrical and physical input parameters in crustal viscoelastic deformation models. to do this analysis viscoelastic model of wang et al., 2006 is used. the increasing quality of data on time-dependent deformation of the earth's surface can be used to extract more details on the spatial and temporal development of earthquake-rela...

Continuum mechanical models have been used to regularize ill-posed problems in many applications in medical imaging analysis such as image registration and left ventricular motion estimation. In this work, we present a significant extension to the common elastic model which we call the active elastic model. The active elastic model is designed to reduce bias in deformation estimation and to all...

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...

recently, bulk nano-structured materials produced by severe plastic deformation (spd) have attracted scientists attention.  materials produced by spd are of great importance because of (1) non-porous structure, (2) great mechanical properties such as high strength and toughness and (3) proper dimension for mechanical and physical testing.  several methods have been introduced for imposing the s...

In this paper, an elastic constitutive model based on the Eulerian corotational rate of the logarithmic strain tensor is proposed. Using this model, the large deformation of a closed cycle containing tension, shear, compression and inverse shear is analyzed. Since the deformation path includes a closed cycle and the material is considered as an isotropic elastic material, the normal and shear c...

The hydrostatic extrusion is a new method of extrusion process. The most important advantage of this method is reduction of friction and close tolerance for the coating thickness. In this study, the hydrostatic extrusion simulation of bimetallic wires has performed using of finite element method. In the following the advantages of hydrostatic extrusion compared to the direct extrusion are prese...

A new four-parameter elastic potential function is proposed which represents data on the elastic deformation of rubbery materials with the same parameters in various deformation fields up to break.
