2- Fundamentals of Metal Forming
- Metal forming is plastic deformation of metals
into desired shapes - Deformation stresses may be tensile or
compressive (usually compressive) - Metals must exhibit certain properties to be
formed efficiently - Friction is an important factor in metal forming
- Strain rate and temperature are important
factors in metal forming

7Material Behavior in Metal Forming
Why do engineering designers base their design on
engineering stress/strain, but manufacturing
engineers use true stress-strain?
8Material Behavior in Metal Forming
Strain hardening - Resistance to increasing
strain. Stress-strain can be related in the
plastic region by the form s K en where K
is the strength coefficient and n is the
hardening exponent. A log-log diagram will show
the linear behavior expected for a curve of this
form. Note The greater the n, the greater the
strain hardening effect. Necking for many ductile
materials begins approximately when the true
strain reaches a value equal to n.

is often necessary to use a constant volume
relationship for modeling process phenomena. In
the case of a tensile test, the appropriate
