Much research efforts have been made on the equal channel angular pressing(ECAP) which produces ultra-fine grains. In this paper the ECAP processes with Zr-702 alloy at elevated temperature and at room temperature are considered. Both two-dimensional and three-dimensional finite element analyses have been employed to investigate the deformation behaviors of specimen during ECAP process.

등통로각압축(ECAP, Equal Channel Angular Pressing)공정은 다결정의 재료 덩어리를 두 채널(channel)이 일정하게 교차하는 형태의 금형에 통과시켜 단면적과 단면 형상의 큰 변화 없이 압출하는 성형법으로 다른 공정에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 압력으로 재료에 소성변형을 발생시켜 입자를 미세화 시킬 수 있으며, 기존의 분말야금에 의한 방법에 비해 상용재료를 포함한 광범위한 금속 및 합금에 적용이 용이한 점과 재료 내부에 기포가 거의 잔류하지 않는 점등의 장점을 가지고 있다.(중략)

Much research efforts have been made on the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) which produces ultra-fine grains. Along with the experiments, the finite element method has been widely employed to investigate the deformation behavior of specimen during ECAP and the effect of process parameters of ECAP. In this paper, sectional shape change has been investigated during ECAP with the pure-Zr, Zr-702 by using three-dimensional finite element analysis. The results have been compared with experimental results.
