Abstract:Forging is a widely used manufacturing process, and its design and modeling are important to reducing production costs, increasing die lifespan, and improving the mechanical properties of the final product. In this study, the forging process of a connecting rod was modeled using 3D coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) analysis by FEM. The methodology adopted achieved to determine a preform geometry that reduces final flash and forging load, while ensuring complete filling of the stamp. Starting from the final geo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
