4.6. Boundary Conditions and Loading

The top rigid surface is displaced downwards by 138 mm in one load step. The downward displacement compresses the cylindrical block (work piece), and the material flows to fill up the space between the dies.

Boundary Conditions Load

Left edge of Billet is fixed in X direction

Bottom edges of Lower Die fixed to avoid displacement as well as Rotation

Y Displacement of 138 mm is applied on Top edges of Upper Die.

Displacement in X direction and rotation is restricted.
