Course Objectives
MetE 304 is designed to emphasize basic principles of industrial metal working
theory with the concepts to improve the production in metal-forming industry to
junior students in the metallurgical and materials engineering department. Insight
into the effects of several parameters during shaping of materials on the process
itself and on the final mechanical properties such as deformation speed and amount
of deformation is to be given. In the course, classical analysis methods (slab,
upper-bound, etc.) and also finite element method, which is a very effective tool
for design and analysis of metalworking processes, will be introduced.
Course Content
Macroscopic plasticity of engineering materials; yield criteria, plastic stress-strain relations, strain instability, strain rate and temperature. Plasticity analysis, ideal work, slab analysis, upper-bound analysis, slip line field theory, finite element analysis. Formability, workability, deformation processing of multiphase materials, control of microstructure through deformation processing.
Course Learning Outcomes
Student, who passed the course satisfactorily will be able to:
- Describe the basic principles of industrial metalworking theory with the concepts to improve the production in metalworking and forming of metallic and nonmetallic materials industry;
- Explain the effects of several parameters during shaping of materials on the process itself and on the final mechanical properties; such as deformation speed, amount of deformation, tool profile, and friction on the energy consumed and heat generated during forming operations is to be given;
- Analyze the workability, formability and control of microstructure through the deformation processing.
