The Kudo method for obtaining average pressures in some axisymmetric forming problems by the use of velocity fields having conical surfaces as discontinuity surfaces is reviewed in the paper. Following this it is shown that the extended treatment of admissible velocity fields is possible if the conical surfaces suggested by Kudo are replaced by curved surfaces. The application of these velocity fields to forming problems is then illustrated by simple examples of compression of cylindrical parts, and the improved upper bound to forming pressures is obtained.

Bound Theorem

A method for selecting admissible velocity fields is presented for incompressible material. As illustrations, extrusion processes through three basic types of curved dies have been treated: cosine, elliptic, and hyperbolic. Upper-bound theorem is used in obtaining mean extrusion pressures and also in choosing the most suitable deformation pattern for extrusion through square dies. Effects of die geometry, friction, and material properties are discussed.

Aspect Ratios

This paper is concerned with an attempt to find an upper bound solution for the problems of steady-state extrusion of asymmetric polygonal section bars through rough square dies. A class of kinematically admissible velocity fields is examined, reformulating the SERR technique, to get the velocity field that gives the lowest upper bound. This velocity field is utilized to compute the non-dimensional average extrusion pressure at various area reductions for different billet aspect ratios.

Formal Requirements

The choice of a kinematically admissible velocity field has a great effect on the predictive capacity of upper bound solutions. It is always advantageous, in addition to the formal requirements of the upper bound theorem, to select a class of velocity fields satisfying some additional conditions that follow from the exact formulation of the problem. In the case of maximum friction law, such an additional condition is that the real velocity field is singular in the vicinity of the friction surface. In the present paper this additional condition is incorporated in the class of kinematically admissible velocity fields chosen for a theoretical analysis of two - layer cylinders subject to compression and twist. An effect of the angular velocity of the die on process parameters is emphasized and discussed.

Open Die Forging

The use of “dual-stream functions” in analyzing some three-dimensional metal-forming processes is demonstrated in this paper. The problems discussed are open-die forging of blocks, rolling of a rectangular bar with spread, piercing by elliptic and rectangular punches, and extrusion of a rectangular shape. For these forming processes, kinematically admissible velocity fields are selected using characteristics of the two stream functions. Approximate upper-bound solutions of the forming processes can be obtained from the proposed velocity fields.

Good Agreement

In this paper, plane strain extrusion through arbitrarily curved dies is investigated analytically, numerically, and experimentally. Two kinematically admissible velocity fields based on assuming proportional angles, angular velocity field, and proportional distances from the midline in the deformation zone, sine velocity field, are developed for use in upper bound models. The relative average extrusion pressures for the two velocity fields are compared to each other and also with the velocity field of a reference for extrusion through a curved die. The results demonstrate that the angular velocity field is the best. Then, by using the developed analytical model, optimum die lengths which minimize the extrusion loads are determined for a streamlined die and also for a wedge shaped die. The corresponding results for those two die shapes are also determined by using the finite element code and by doing some experiments and are compared with upper bound results. These comparisons show a good agreement.

Flow Through

The two developments in the upper-bound method are given. These are an extended treatment of the velocity field for outward flow of a cylindrical deforming region, and the introduction of a new velocity field for the flow through conical dies. The upper-bound calculation based on these velocity fields is presented in the examples of compression of a cylinder, wire-drawing, and bar-extrusion.

General Velocity

A general kinematically admissible velocity field applicable to forging of a rectangular strip of a incompressible material is presented. Generalized shape of any dead zone, if assumed, can be obtained in terms of process parameters from this velocity field. Two different upper bound solutions for average forging pressure are obtained from simple velocity fields which are special cases of proposed general velocity field. Numerical results of the solutions show improvement over previous upper bound solutions published in literature over a certain range of process parameters.
