The streamlined die surfaces are interpolated by the arbitrarily cross sectional shapes of the die entrance and exit. The boundaries of the die entrance and exit are represented by Ferguson curves with tension parameters. By adjusting the tension parameter, the cross sectional shapes of the die entrance and exit with line segments can be accurately constructed. The upper bound method is used to analyze the procedure of extrusion, the pseudo independent parameters in kinematically admissible velocity and die surface are computed by minimizing the extrusion load, so the optimum die surface is obtained. The effects of frictional condition, die length, area reduction and product shaped complexity are discussed in relation to the extrusion load.展开更多
