Differential side bevel gears have been produced by machining process, but recently cold forging process for the bevel gear is under development in domestic industry. This study presents the possibility to form not only bevel gear but also spline gear at the same time using the experiment and numerical analysis. The preform shape is designed to form both bevel gear and spline gear simultaneously by the backward tracing scheme of the rigid-plastic finite element method(FEM). The experimental results confirm that the numerically-designed preform is satisfactory to form both bevel gear and spline gear. It is noted that the backward tracing scheme is helpful in designing preforms.

The multi-stage deep-drawing processes including normal-drawing, reverse-drawing, and re-drawing are analyzed by use of the rigid-plastic finite element method. Computational results on the punch/die loads and thickness distributions were compared with the experiments of the current drawing processes. Deep-drawing processes of the redesigned shell to improve the specific strength and stiffness were simulated with the numerical method developed. With varying several process parameters such as blank size, corner radii of tools, and clearances, the simulation results showed the improvements in reducing the forming loads. Also forming defects were found during simulation and appropriate blank size could be verified.

In this paper, limitation of rigid-plastic finite element method caused from rigid-plasticity assumption and numerical problem is investigated in detail and a useful scheme is proposed to get rid of the plastic deformation in rigid or elastic region. A typical example of a possible long bar extrusion process is given, which may be impossible to simulate without using the proposed scheme. The scheme is successfully applied to simulating the long bolt forging processes.

We analyzed a sequence of multi-stage automatic cold forging processes composed of four axisymmetric processes followed by a non-axisymmetric process using rigid-plastic finite element based forging simulators. The forging sequence selected for an example involves a piercing process and a heading process accompanying folding or overlapping, which all make it difficult to simulate the processes. To reduce computational time and to enhance the solution reliability, only the non-symmetric process was analyzed by the three-dimensional approach after the axisymmetric processes were analyzed by the two-dimensional approach. It has been emphsized that this capability is very helpful in simulating the multi-stage automatic forging processes which are next to axisymmetric.

Multi-stage deep drawing is an important sheet metal forming process. The deformation mechanisms of sheet metals during forming processes are complicated mainly due to the geometry and the lubrication of tools involved, the formability and the anisotropic behaviour of the material. The multi-stage deep-drawing processes including normal-drawing, reverse-drawing, and re-drawing are analyzed by use of the rigid-plastic finite element method. The anisotropic behaviour represented by r-value can be incorporated into the formulation. Punch/die loads and thickness distributions were obtained as results of simulating axisymmetric deep drawing processes. The computed results showed good agreements with experiments.

The $Al/SiC_p$ particle reinforced composite fabricated by a powder-in sheath rolling (PSR) method was severely. deformed by the accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) process. The ARB process was performed up to 8 cycles at ambient temperature without lubricant. The ARBed composite exhibited an ulbricant. grained structure similar to the other ARBed bulky materials. Tensile strength of the composite increased gradually with the number of ARB cycles, but from the 6th cycle it rather decreased slightly. These characteristics of the composite were somewhat different from those of Al powder compact fabricated by the same procedures. The difference in microstructure and mechanical properties between Al powder compact and the composite was discussed.

In order to increase the productivity of electrical parts, manufacturing processes using progressive dies have been widely used in the industry. Motor cores have been fabricated using progressive stacking die with the lamination procedure for better electro-magnetic property. For the proper design off process, a prediction of the process is required to obtain many design parameters. In this work, rigid-plastic finite element analysis is carried out in order to simulate the lamination process of the motor core. The effects of the embossing depth, the amount of deviation, and the number of stacked sheets are investigated and compared with experiments. The forming process can then be predicted successfully from the results of analyses, which enables an appropriate design to be made for the die and the process.

The sheet formability can be improved by the optimum drawbeads installation because draw-beads can control the flow of the metal into the die cavity when the punch enters into the die opening, In this study the drawing characteristics for step drawbead are analyzed by 2-D rigid -plastic FEM and also are measured experimentally. In addition for the validity of FEM theoretical results are compared with the experimental results. Especially the draw bead restrain-ing forces and the strain distributions of drawn specimens are obtained in both FEM and experiment. Also the effects of the drawbead dimensions drawing angles and blank holding forces on the drawing characteristics are investigated.

The differences of formability with maximum cup depth of drawn product and thickness strain distribution are compared for two kinds of blank shapes which are suggested optimum shape and conventional square shape. The suggested blank is determined by backward tracing technique of rigid-plastic FEM. The deeper cup without wrinkle and flange part could be obtained from the suggested blank shape however the cross sevtion sup from the square blank could not be kept smooth thickness strain distribution and defended those phenomena..

Flare nut is an important Part that used to joint a brake tube-end in automobiles. It was made of SWCH 10A by machining. But we studied to make it by metal forming. The main focus of this paper is to investigate an optimal forging processes for flare nut using the DEFORM$^{TM}$-3D. commercially available finite element code and tests. Actually an explicit finite element analysis of the flare nut forging processes has been carried out to predict an optimal shape of the flare nut and its results were reflected in the tests of the forging processes design for flare nut. The simulation results which had obtained from finite element analysis were contributed to the forging processes design for flare nut. An optimal shape of nave nut showed agreements with test results. Furthermore. this paper should contribute to a development of the forging process for a variety of parts.s.
