Notes:
This study aims the modeling and simulation of the direct extrusion process anddetermination of optimal process parameters using Finite Element Method (FEM) and ArtificialNeural Network (ANN) cooperatively. First, the die set has been designed for direct extrusion of analuminum rod and its numerical simulation has been prepared by mean of ABAQUS/EXPLITICfinite element code. So, both the values of the process parameters according to extrusion load andthe critical stress values have been determined. After, the ANN model of the process has beendeveloped under MATLAB and has been trained with the results of finite element simulations.Also, the optimization software which can run together the ANN model has been developed and hasbeen used to determine the optimum process parameters
