Abstract

The simplified slice-plain-strain method and the incorporating incremental superposition theory were adopted for the cumulative effective strain (CES) of elliptical cross-section spiral equal-channel extrusion (ECSEE) process. The ECSEE deformation was divided into two basic deformation modes: round-ellipse/ellipse-round cross-section transitional channel deformation and elliptical cross-section torsion transitional channel deformation, through tracking a particle of the cross section. The change laws for the combined CES of the particle with the channel length and the combined effective strain (ES) distribution were obtained by MATLAB software programming, and the results were compared with these via Deform-3D finite element method (FEM). The results show that the ECSEE accumulation torsion strain is greater than that of other forms, and the shear deformation is dominant. The blank cross-section ES presents the gradient decreasing trend from the periphery to the center. The FEM results also verify the accuracy of analytical solution.
