Abstract

Grain size evolution and phase transformation during metal forming processes is investigated numerically by means of the Finite element method. Appropriate microstructure models are involved into the FEM code MSC.MARC. Material characteristics obtained by means of own experiments are used. Hot closed die forging and rod rolling are considered. (© 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
