Learning Outcomes
1.
Explain the use of the yield criteria, plastic instability, strain
hardening and strain-rate hardening in metal forming
theories and applications.
2.
Grade the metals according to their plastic behaviour and its
implications on formability of real processes.
3.
Justify the action of tools and dies in sheet and bulk forming
operations using ideal work and slab method.
4.
Integrate the effect of process parameters and deformation
zone geometry on forming loads and product quality.
5.
Evaluate the cause of defects on the product and
recommend preventive measures.
