A part is designed to be hot forged in an impression die. The projected area of the part, including flash, is 16 in2 . After trimming, the part has a projected area of 10 in2 . Part geometry is complex. As heated the work material yields at 10,000 lb/in2 , and has no tendency to strain harden. At room temperature, the material yields at 25,000 lb/in2 Determine the maximum force required to perform the forging operation
