Abstract
The hot extrusion forging, in the production of an half shaft of a motorcycle engine, has been analysed by means of finite element simulations. The severe mesh distortion occurring in the simulation has been overcome with the aid of a code provided with automatic remeshing techniques. The study is aimed to promote the use of FEM not only in the designing phase but also as a tool able to investigate defects occurring at the production level.
