Abstract: | The paper discusses the problem of stress and strain concentration in the entry and exit planes during the drawing process. Earlier investigations carried out by Pierlin, Pawelski and Armstroff as well as Chen and Kobayashi's finite element analysis are reviewed. Authors’ calculations based on the rigid-plastic finite element approach are compared with experimental and theoretical results published by Pawelski and Armstroff. Solution for rigid-plastic material behaviour confirmed the die pressure increase in the entry and exit zones questioning Pierlin's suggestion that the elastic strains are responsible for pressure concentrations. Analysis of the strain rate distribution led to the presumption that pressure increase is due to the strain rate concentrations in the areas close to the entry and exit zones. |
