Numerical Simulation of Hot Closed Die Forging of a Low Carbon Steel Coupled with Microstructure Evolution

Hot closed die forging is a regular process applied to manufacture metallic components used in supporting and fixing cable conductors in electric power transmission lines. In this forming process, the final microstructure of the workpiece depends on the control of several processing parameters. In t...
