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.

Introduction Bar extrusion is a process in which a block of metal (billet) is forced to flow by compression through a tool (die) opening of a smaller crosssectional area than that of the original billet. There are two basic types of bar extrusion: direct and indirect. The most important and common method used is the direct extrusion (Lange 1988). Figure 1 shows the principle of direct bar extru...

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 strengt...

The mechanical properties of titanium Grade 2 subjected to the hydrostatic extrusion technique (HE) were investigated. The hydrostatic extrusion technique is a method which refines the titanium grains to a nano-metric size. Compared with coarse grained titanium (CG-Ti), nanocrystalline titanium (NC-Ti) is characterized by a much higher yield stress, tensile strength and microhardness. The yield...

Vortex extrusion (VE) is a severe plastic deformation technique which is based on the synergies between high strain accumulation and high hydrostatic pressure. Such a high amount of pressure, places a mandate to seek the method for investigation of the load under processing conditions. For this, kinematically admissible velocity field and upper bound terms based on Bezier formulation are develo...

The effects of hydrostatic extrusion on particle cracking and on the subsequent tensile properties of some prototypical particlereinforced metal–matrix composites are investigated. In most cases, tensile failure occurs through a plastic instability in accordance with the Considere criterion for necking. The corresponding failure strain is therefore dictated by the global flow and hardening char...
