Popis: Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) is the most promising and interesting process for refining the grain size to an ultrafine grain or nanosize by imposing severe plastic deformation into the workpiece and repeating the process while maintaining the original cross-section of the workpiece. In this paper, we simulated the batch type ECAP and the continuous type equal channel multi-angular pressing (ECMAP), which can impose large deformation by repeating the shear deformation, using the finite element method and investigated the similarity and difference of the two processes. In particular, modified die design of the continuous type ECMAP was proposed for strain uniformity.
