A hollow flanged spindle is generally used for the assembly of the driving shaft in some vehicles. This part has conventionally been manufactured by both hot forging and machining process, in which case a circular billet is hot-forged into a flanged spindle blank and then its central part is machined for hollow. Therefore, the development of a new forming technology without further machining processes has strongly been in demand. In this study, a new compound forging process of the hollow flanged spindle was proposed through the finite element simulation. By the proposed compound forging process, both extruding of the spindle body part and piercing for the hollow inside it can be performed at the same time. Metal flow patterns, forging defects and forging forces were investigated through the finite element simulation results.

In keeping with the needs of the times for energy and labor saving and simplifying production processes, interests has been growing in warm forging. Moreover, it is interested in increasing the material usage and production amounts. To improve the productivity and material usage, it is studied the process design of warm forging for socket. Until now, socket is manufactured by hot forging in hammer. The percentage of material usage is under $60\%$ in hammer forging. On the other han4 the percentage can be increased over $90\%$ in warm forging. To change the process from hot forging to warm forging, process designs must be performed. In this time, by using the FEM package, DEFORM-3D, we could get the shape of 1st process and minimum sealing pressure. They are very essential design data to decrease the trial and error. Practically, the overlap defect could be detected and eliminated with design modification of rib height and fillet radius. Moreover, forging load and minimum sealing pressure was defined by the 3D FEM analysis.

Nimonic 80A superalloy with high-temperature strength and high corrosion-resistance is used in jet engine for aircraft, gas turbine for power plant and marine diesel engine, etc. To develop the manufacturing process of exhaust valve for large diesel engine using Nimonic 80A, various mechanical tests, such as hot compression, microstructure and hardness test have been performed. This results effectively used to set the reasonable forging conditions while hot forging of Nimonic 80A superalloy. Open die and closed die forging experiments are carried out from ESR ingot and finally get a good shaped exhaust valve product.

Helical gears are machined from blanks, which are usually prepared by forging cylindrical billets at high temperatures through buster, blocker and finisher processes. As dimensions of the blank are closer to those of the machined part, machining cost can be more reduced. Therefore, there are a lot of efforts being made to optimize the forging processes in order to produce near-net shaped blanks. In the present investigation, a rigid viscoplastic finite element technique was used to analyze a helical gear blank hot forging processes and deformation, strain and temperature distributions, forging load variations during forging were obtained. In the paper, it is discussed how these results can be utilized to optimize die design, billet dimensions and press usage.

In bulk metal forming processes prediction of tool life is very important for saving production cost and achieving good material properties. Generally the service life of tools in metal forming process is limited to a large extent by wear, fracture and plastic deformation of tools. In case of hot and warm forging processes tool life depends on wear over 70%. In this study finite element analyses are con-ducted to warm and hot forging by adopting suggested wear model. By comparison of simulation and eal profile of die suggested wear model. By comparison of simulation and real profile of die suggested model is verified.

Thermomechanical behavior of Al-Mg-Si alloys have been studied to investigate the effect of microstructural features such as pre-existing substructure and distribution of particles on the deformation characteristics. The controlled compression tests have been carried out to get the basic information on how the alloy responds to temperature, strain amount and strain rate. Then hot forging of Al-Mg-Si alloys has been carried out and analyzed by the comparison with the compression tests. Microstructural features after forging have been discussed in terms of the thermomechanical response of Al-Mg-Si alloys. As already well mentioned, we have found that the deformation of Al-Mg-Si at the elevated temperature brought the recovered structure on most conditions. In a certain time, however, abnormally large grains have been found as a result of deformation assisted grain growth, which means that hot forging of Al-Mg-Si alloys could lead to a undesirable microstructural variation and the consequent mechanical properties such as fatigue strength.

A effective and accurate method of hot-forging process is essential to the design of optimized dies as well as workpiece of intial shape. the former is achieved by a proper forging sequence with invokes serious problem like excessive load and die wear, die failure, underfilling and lap defects. the latter is achieved by a proper preform design of case I, case II, case III. metal forming processes of aluminum-alloy forged at an effective strain and temperature are analyzed by the finite element method. the non-isothermal analysis have been compared with optimized in terms of preform shape.

A counter shaft gear is an important part in the transmission system of vehicle. Its shape is relatively complicated and should meets high strength. Traditionally the counter shaft gear has been manufactured as follows; a spline body is firstly machined for teeth and then attached to the main gear body by frictional welding, and finally is finished by grinding. Therefore it is necessary to develop a new manufacturing technology eliminating both frictional welding and grinding processes. In this study, a new hot forging process was proposed and designed so that the spline body with teeth and main gear body are formed as one body. Finite element simulations and experimental works were peformed for design of forging processes to get the quality final precision-forged product. Consequently the most suitable blocker process could be obtained.

Densification, grain growth, and phase transformation of nanocrystalline ceramic powder were investigated under pressureless sintering, sinter forging, and hot pressing. A constitutive model for densification of nanocrystalline ceramic powder was proposed and implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS). A grain growth model was also proposed by including the effect of applied stress on grain growth when phase transformation occurs. Finite element results by using the proposed models well predicted densification behavior, deformation, and grain growth of nanocrystalline titania powder during pressureless sintering, sinter forging, and hot pressing. Finite element results by using the proposed model also well predicted experimental data in the literature for densification behavior of nanocrystalline zirconia powder during pressureless sintering and sinter forging.
