Abstract
The effect of 3 forging routes (Route A - 1~12 passes by plane forging (PF) and reverse-plane forging (R-PF), Route B – 1~6 passes by PF and R-PF, 7~12 passes by diagonal forging (DF) and reversediagonal forging (R-DF), Route C – 1~12 passes by DF and R-DF) on maximum load..... More

Abstract
The effect that forging routes (3 routes, A-C) exert on the development of deformation heterogeneity in AA1100 was theoretically performed using finite element analysis. Route A corresponded to a forging process that involved from 1 to 6 passes through multi-axial diagonal forging (MADF); Route B corresponded to a forging process..... More
