Abstract

A new method for measurement of plastic strain inside a deforming body is advanced and validated through a simple cylinder upsetting experiment. It is also applied to a ring for demonstrating this method in a ring compression test. The experimental results and numerical simulation show good agreement. In contrast with other physical modelling methods, this method utilizes the real metal for a sensor and workpiece, rather than using substitute materials, and can observe and measure material flow and plastic strain inside the specimen without splitting it before deformation. It can be used to study material flow and to predict strain distribution in general bulk metal-forming processes such as upsetting, extrusion, and die forging. It is also useful for verification of the numerical simulation methods when the material model and the processing parameters were uncertain and/or not easily verified.
