Analysis of a strain rate field in cold formed material using the visioplasticity method

In this paper the visioplasticity method is used to find the complete velocity and strain rate distributions from the experimental data, using the finite-difference method.The data about values of strain rates in plastic region Parts of the material is very important for calculating stresses and the prediction of product quality.Specimens of copper alloy were extruded with different BARLEY LIFE W KELP lubricants and different coefficients of friction and then the strain rate distributions were analysed and compared.Significant differences in velocity and strain rate distributions were obtained in some regions at the exit of the deformed zone.
