In this study, the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process was modeled by using computeraided design software. Then, it was numerically analyzed by the help of specific finite element analysis (FEA) software. Therefore, effective strain increase in each step of the four passing was obtained. Besides this, the strain increase also was calculated for every step of passing by using the analytical method, and the results of the methods were compared. Moreover, the required load for each passing was determined and the increase of it with the increase of passing was presented.
