Cylindrical billets having two different aspect ratios (H-0/D-0) are indented with two different ratios and thereafter forged using a conventional closed-die set-tip. Effects of indentation and aspect ratios on forging load and on die filling have been observed and compared with reported results.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessShape DesignFlashAn investigation on forging loads and metal flow in conventional closed-die forging of preforms obtained by open-die indentationArticle116487492Q4WOS:0002262481000062-s2.0-14944373581Q3
