A fully automatic computer simulation technique of axisymmetric multi-stage compound forging processes was presented in this paper. A penalty rigid-viscoplastic finite element method was employed together with an improved looping method for automatically remeshing with quadrilateral finite-elements only. An application example of six-stage axisymmetric forging processes involving one cold and two hot forging processes, two piercing processes and a sizing process was given with emphasis on automatically tracing the metal flow lines through the whole simulation.

Strip drawing of strain-hardening, viscoplastic materials with damage is analyzed by a rigid plastic finite element method. A process model is formulated using two state variables, one for strain hardening from slip dominated plastic distortion and the other for damage from growth of microvoids. Application of the model to steady state drawing is given via implementation in a consistent penalty finite element formulation. The predicted density changes as a result of void growth are compared to those from experiments reported in the literature. The effects of drawing conditions such as drawing speed and die angle on the mechanical property changes are studied.
