This special collection comprises 36 peer-reviewed papers giving an insight into the latest advances in extrusion technology and its simulation. The papers cover a wide range of topics and are grouped into the categories of: benchmark, microstructure, seam welds and composite extrusion, material flow and constitutive equations, dies and tools and process control and optimization. However, many other topics, such as new materials (magnesium and its composites) and new composite profiles, are covered.In particular, the benchmark section is aimed at exploiting FEM code capabilities and users′ expert knowledge in the simulation of industrial extrusion processes. This book will therefore be a welcome addition to the literature on the subject.
