Three-dimensional rigid plastic FEM is adopted to analyze the extruding-bulging process of tee tubes. Equivalent strain-rate stress distributions and the deformation characteristic in extruding-bulging process of tee tubes are revealed which provide scientific and reliable basis for correctly designing technologcial scheme and rationally selecting parameters. meanwhile some approaches for three-dimensional rigid plastic FEM are also discussed in this paper
