Finite Element Simulation of the Compaction and Springback of an Aluminum Powder Metallurgy Alloy

A new finite element model was developed to predict the density distribution in an Alumix 321 powder metallurgy compact. The model can predict the density distribution results of single-action compaction from 100 to 500 MPa compaction pressure. The model can also determine the amount of springback...
