Which dimensional deviation results due to uneven cooling after forging?

💡 Explanation

Warpage occurs from uneven contraction during cooling, causing residual stresses; the *Bauschinger effect* explains this. Because differential cooling leads to varied stress distribution, dimensional accuracy is undermined, therefore tolerances degrade, rather than hardness or minor surface changes which are secondary here.
