The model incorporates effects of friction, wall thickness variation, and velocity discontinuities to predict extrusion force, deformation zone depth, and strain localization. Validation through both experimental measurements and finite element simulations demonstrates strong agreement with the analytical predictions. The proposed model offers an efficient and reliable framework for understanding deformation mechanics in precision tube extrusion and serves as a practical design tool in metal forming processes.</span></span></span></span><br> <br> &nbsp; Backward extrusion,ultra-thin-walled tubes,Upper-bound theory,Deformation mechanics,Strain localization 0 0 http://ijmse.iust.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-1373-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Zahra Pahlevani p.pahlevani2018@gmail.com 1800319475328460022149 1800319475328460022149 No Department of Materials Science and engineering, School of Engineering, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran.
