Numerical modelling of the aluminium extrusion process when producing complex sections
This thesis reports the analysis by FEM of both continuum and structural models describing the extrusion process. They were compared with experimental work and the agreement is satisfactory. All the simulations were performed with the implicit finite element code Forge2009® with user input written i...
