The sensitivity method has been applied to find perform shape that results in the desired shape after foring. As a 2D example, initial shape of specimen for the cylinder shape without barrelling after forging has been found. The method is then applied to various shapes of 3D free forging and initial shapes of the corresponding specimens after forging have been found successfully The sensitivity method is proven to be an effective and accurate tool for the preform design.

Large size forged parts usually were made by hot open die forging because of the die cost, high applied load and small manufacturing quantities. Cast ingots were used in open die forging and the ingots almost included the cavities in its inside. Therefore, one of the aims for forging processes is to close and remove the cavities. However, its criteria were well not defined since the studies have many difficulties to investigate the cavity behaviors because of its large size. In this study, the cavity closure behavior was investigated by experimental and FE analysis. The FEM analysis is performed to investigate the overlap defect of cast ingots during free forging stage. The measured flow stress data were used to simulate the forging process of cast ingot using the practical material properties. Also the analysis of cavity closure is performed by using the $DEFORM^{TM}$-3D. The calculated results of cavity closure behavior are compared with the measured results before and after forging, which are scanned by the X-ray scanner. From this result, the criteria for deformation amounts effect on the cavity closure can be investigated by the comparison between practical experiment and numerical analysis.
