Cold and Hot Forging
Altan, Taylan / Ngaile, Gracious / Shen, Gangshu
Reviews the fundamentals of forging technology, the principal variables of the forging process and their interactions, and computer-aided techniques such as finite element analysis for forging process and tooling design. Topics addressed include the flow behaviour of the forged material under processing conditions, die geometry and die materials, friction and lubrication, the mechanics of deformation, and the effects of the process on the envi...
