Synopsis

One of the most important tools in the metal forming technology is the integrated process and microstructual simulation using Finite Element Methods (FEM). It has become more and more popular in recent years, especially in the segment of hot metal forming, e.g. open die forging of large scaled and hardly deformable materials, such as nickel-based super alloys for turbine shaft. Theoretically using this method it is possible to calculate the microstructual evolution along the whole process chain in the numerical simulation of the considered metal forming process. Based on this knowledge a series of benefits can be achieved for the practice, such as to optimize a present metal forming process, to predict the mechanical properties of the final products under the given forming conditions, to detect the possible product failures prematurely, to assist the design of a new production chain and so on. In the face of these trends of the scientific research as well as the industrial demands, different material models have been released in the market to combine the commercial FEM programs specialized in the numerical simulation of metal forming. Among others microstructure-based ow stress models show outstanding performance. Through this kind of material model not only the microstructure such as recrystallization and grain size, but also the interaction between the microstructual evolution and the working hardening, effectively ow stress, can be quantitatively represented.
