The 2007 workshop and benchmark has been a great success in combining industrial needs and academic knowledge in the area of extrusion technology with a particular attention to FEM computation. The number of international participants and presenters exceeded by far the expectations of the organizers. The current state of the numerical simulation was exploited by the extrusion benchmark: the quality of simulation results generally increased a lot with respect to the previous benchmark edition, some of them evidencing a good correspondence to experimental results. However, the use of simulation still has to be treated with care in order to obtain reliable answers for industrial needs. In order to keep monitoring the simulation quality and improving the knowledge transfer between industry and universities, the next Ex-trusion Workshop and Benchmark on Finite Element Simulation of Extrusion Processes is currently planned to be held in 2009 at the Institute of Forming Technology and Lightweight Construction (IUL), Technical University of Dortmund in Germany.

Abstract
The 2007 workshop and benchmark has been a great success in combining industrial needs and academic knowledge in the area of extrusion technology with a particular attention to FEM computation. The number of international participants and presenters exceeded by far the expectations of the organizers. The current state of the numerical simulation was exploited by the extrusion benchmark: the quality of simulation results generally increased a lot with respect to the previous benchmark edition, some of them evidencing a good correspondence to experimental results. However, the use of simulation still has to be treated with care in order to obtain reliable answers for industrial needs. In order to keep monitoring the simulation quality and improving the knowledge transfer between industry and universities, the next Ex-trusion Workshop and Benchmark on Finite Element Simulation of Extrusion Processes is currently planned to be held in 2009 at the Institute of Forming Technology and Lightweight Construction (IUL), Technical University of Dortmund in Germany.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
