Prediction of mechanical properties of products after cold radial forging according to results of finite element modeling

The object of research is the technological process of the hardening of sintered material by the radial forging. The model of radial forging was made for the software system DEFORM3D. A routine prediction of damage of the material in the process of radial forging and the technique of predicting the mechanical properties (ultimate strength and extension strain) were developed in this work. A comparison between predicted results and natural experiments was made.
