Write a computer program (in C++) that will solve for the pressure distribution

Question

Write a computer program (in C++) that will solve for the pressure distribution on a die while extruding. Solve for the following extrusion case:

Material yield strength: Y = 120 + 50 e MPa
Material initial temperature: 200 degrees C
Material specific heat: 2.3 N/(mm^2-degreesC)
Entry diameter = 25 cm
Exit diameter = 15 cm
Entry velocity = 1.3 m/min
Die angle (NOT half-angle) = 50 degrees
Coefficient of friction = 0.2

Write a program that will calculate the following:
1. the final true strain of the material
2. the force (N) necessary to extrude
3. the power (kW) necessary to extrude
4. the exit velocity (m/min) and production rate (m^3/hr)
5. the temperature (degrees C) of the extruded material (assume no heat loss to die)
6. the pressure (MPa) on the die as a function of distance (cm) from the die entry

The input may be from a file, from the keyboard, or from data statements in the computer program or environment. (Your choice---your program only has to be capable of one method.) The program must break the extrusion into 50 elements.
The program must output items 1 to 5 above. Item 6 must be shown by a plot. It can be done by your program or by another program (Excel, MATLAB, or any plotting program), but NOT by hand.

Hints:
1. You probably want to start calculating where s_x=0
2. Make sure that you have your signs correct
3. N/(mm^2-degrees C) = (N-mm)/(mm^3-degrees C) = (J/mm^3)/degrees C

Explanation / Answer

vector vec; vec.push_back( 10 ); vec.push_back( 20 ); for (int i : vec ) { cout
