In this paper, an approximate time-effective approach to rigid-plastic finite element method is presented with its solution scheme and a volume compensation method is proposed to simulate rotary forging processes. The applicability is examined by comparing the results obtained by the presented approach with those by the conventional approach. The approach is applied to simulation of a rotary forging process fur a wheel bearing assembly. The analyzed results are compared with the experimental results.
