Abstract
The bulk workability of a metal can be projected, or at least compared, using the tensile test analysis of Cockroft and Latham1,2 and the upset test analysis ofKuhn et al. 3−8 These two approaches are extended to two limited workability high-alloy steels, namely type 440C stainless steel and type M42 tool steel. The approaches have also been applied to type 1045 plain carbon steel in the 100 to 400°C range germane to dynamic aging and to much industrial “cold” processing. Data from the two approaches are compared by way of the analysis ofKuhn et al.3 Also ex-amined are process implications.
