In multi-pass operation, a round bar of $$10$$ $$mm$$ diameter and $$100$$ $$mm$$ length is reduced in cross-section by drawing it successively through a series of seven dies of decreasing exit diameter. During each of theses drawing operations, the reduction in cross-sectional area is $$35\% $$. The yield strength of the material is $$200$$ $$MPa.$$ Ignore strain hardening.

The total true strain applied and the final length (in $$mm$$), respectively, are

In multi-pass operation, a round bar of $$10$$ $$mm$$ diameter and $$100$$ $$mm$$ length is reduced in cross-section by drawing it successively through a series of seven dies of decreasing exit diameter. During each of theses drawing operations, the reduction in cross-sectional area is $$35\% $$. The yield strength of the material is $$200$$ $$MPa.$$ Ignore strain hardening.

Neglecting friction and redundant work, the force (in $$kN$$) required for drawing the bar through the first die, is

The thickness of a plate is reduced from $$30$$ $$mm$$ to $$10$$ $$mm$$ by successive cold rolling passes using identical rolls of diameter $$600$$ $$mm.$$ Assume that there is no change in width. If the coefficient of friction between the rolls and the work piece is $$0.1,$$ the minimum number of passes required is

During open die forging process using two flat and parallel dies, a solid steel disc of initial radius $$({R_{IN}})\,\,200mm$$ and Initial height $$({H_{IN}})\,\,50mm$$ attains a height $$({H_{FN}})$$ of $$30mm$$ and radius of $${R_{FN}}$$. Along the die-disc interfaces

$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\mu = 0.35\left[ {1 + {e^{ - {R_{IN}}/{R_{FN}}}}} \right]$$

(ii) In the region $${R_{SS}}\,\, \le \,\,r\,\, \le \,\,{R_{FN}},$$ sliding friction prevails and
