Frictional laws are criticized with emphasis on their application to bulk metal forming simulation in this paper. Coulomb frictional law and constant shear frictional law are investigated in detail in terms of their effect on metal forming process. A friction sensitive bulk metal forming process, a long-pipe simultaneously shrinking and expanding process, is introduced and the problems of the constant shear frictional law are revealed comparing the predictions obtained by the Coulomb frictional law and the constant shear frictional law with the experiments. It is shown that the constant shear frictional law is improper in the case that the normal stress varies very much from position to position and that the normal stress is low compared with flow stress of the adjacent material. It is also shown that the Coulomb frictional constant is more or less affected by the normal stress.

We conduct finite element simulation of a cross-wedge rolling process using AFDEX 3D. The die is realistically modeled with emphasis on the hatched plicate over the slope or forming region. Coulomb frictional law is used to prevent slip between material and die. Constant shear frictional law is also investigated and it is esmphasized that the constant shear frictional law is improper for cross-wedge rolling simulation.

Effects of frictional laws on finite element solutions in metal forming were investigated in this paper. A rigid-viscoplastic finite element formulation was given with emphasis on the frictional laws. The Coulomb friction and the constant shear friction laws were compared through finite element analyses of compression of rings and cylinders with different aspect ratios, ring-gear forging, multi-stage cold extrusion and hot strip rolling under the isothermal condition. It has been shown that two laws may yield quite different results when the aspect ratio of a process and the fractional contact region are large.

Effects of frictional laws on finite element solutions in bulk metal forming were investigated in this paper. The Coulomb friction and the constant shear friction law were compared through finite element anlayses of compression of ring and cylinders with different aspect rations, ring-gear forging and hot strip rollin under the isothermal condition. It has been shown that two laws may yield quite different results inthe case that the aspect ration of a process is large, for example , strip rolling and ring -gear forging and that the difference depends mainly on the aspect ratio and the friction.
