Abstract

We carry out three-dimensional simulation of pore closing processes during upsetting in open die forging. Several pores on a plane section of a cylindrical material are traced at the same time and the results of hydrostatic pressure and effective strain are discussed to reveal the parameters affecting pore closing phenomena. Five different sizes of pores are also investigated by simulation to reveal the pore size effect in pore closing during upsetting. AFDEX 3D is employed for this study.
