Finite element simulation and die shape optimisation method applied to forging of 3D aerofoil blades

The dimensional tolerances are among the most important manufacturing criteria in the forging of aerofoil blades for aero-engine applications. These are usually classified in relation to aerofoil shape, thickness and twist along cross-sections and are. affected by many factors such as preform shape,...
