Work-piece optimization and thermal analysis for flash-less cold forging of AUV propeller hubs — FEM simulation and experiment

In this paper three-dimensional FEM based work-piece optimization and thermal analysis for flash-less cold forging of aluminum front and back hubs of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) propeller is presented. The work-piece used is of AISI AL6061 and the die material is die steel (AISI D2). For...
