The aim of the course:
This graduate course aimed for providing fundamental information on forging which is one of the oldest metal forming processes. In addition, types of forming processes, calculation of loads and stresses in forging via analytical, emprical and numerical techniques, factor affecting forging (load, lubrication, coefficient of friction), analysis of forging defects, review on some of the forging products ( knifes, tools, bolts, rolling bearings,etc.) will also be covered.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : distinguish various forging processes and determine the appropriate forging method for a part in a specific form.1,3,6,
PO - 2 : calculate the necessary forging load and contact pressure for some simple shape parts in open-die forging.1,3,6,
PO - 3 : analyze the presses used in forging operations and their features.1,3,6,
PO - 4 : analyze the important points in die design and press selection for a part to be forged. 1,3,6,
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
