Question: A rectangular workpiece has the following initial dimensions: L 0 = 1 0 0 mm , h 0 = 3 0 mm and width w

A rectangular workpiece has the following initial dimensions: L0=100 mm, h0=30 mm and width w0=20 mm (see Fig. 2). The material has a yield strength Y0 of 90 MPa, a strength coefficient K of 202 MPa, and a strain hardening exponent n of 0.13. It is to be reduced in height by 20%(forged in plane strain). Let the coefficient of friction between the workpiece and die be 0.2(dry friction).(1) Calculate the force [kN] required to initiate yielding of the workpiece. (2) Calculate the force [kN] required for a 20% reduction in height
