The present work focused on establishing a new model to accurately describe the relation of elastic modulus and plastic deformation. The tensile tests were performed to investigate the influence of plastic deformation on elastic modulus at low strain rate. Two different aluminum sheets were used, AA2024-T3 and LY12-CZ, and the thickness of sheet metals was 1.3 mm and 2.0 mm, respectively. In order to overcome the drawback, which is directly measuring the slope of tension curve to obtain elastic modulus, an extrapolation method was adopted. The proposal macroscopic piecewise sinusoidal function can accurately model the elastic modulus variation.展开更多

Effects of the rotation and welding speeds on the temperature field of FSW 2024-73 aluminum alloy were systematicaUy investigated. The temperature measurement was performed to validate the reliability of the model. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experiments. Results show that changing the rotation speed has no influence on the time for reaching the peak temperature at certain point in the workpiece at a constant welding speed. While increasing the welding speed has significant effect on the time for reaching the peak temperature but the value of peak temperature changes little.展开更多

The ...The flow stress feature of aluminum sheet used for pressure can during plastic deformation at elevated temperature was studied by isothermal compression test using Gleeble 1 500 dynamic materials testing machine. The experimental results show that the steady state deformation is remarkable when the material is deformed in the temperature range of 350~500 ℃ at strain rates within the range of 10 -2 ~10.0 s -1 . The material is sensitive to positive strain rate. A hyperbolic sine relationship is found to correlate well the flow stress with the strain rate, and an Arrhenius relationship with the temperature. Semi empirical constitutive equations of the flow stress are derived from all experimental data for tested material during plastic deformation at elevated temperature by polyelement linear regression analysis.

This failure prediction methodology is developed based on the Marciniak-Kuczynski approach by assuming a slightly higher void volume fraction inside randomly oriented imperfecte analysis. Here, a nonproportional deformation history including relative rotation of principal stretch directions is identified in a selected critical element of an aluminum sheet from a FEM fender forming simulation. Based on the failure prediction methodology, the failure of the critical sheet element is investigated under the non-proportional deformation history.

By using X-ray diffraction technique and mechanical test method, aluminum alloy with typical fine sub-grains, coarse recrystallized grains, and second phase was analyzed; the interactive mechanical model between grains was built for analysis of variation of internal stress within the local micro structure by imitating the actual distribution of grains. The experimental result shows that the mechanical model can effectively explain the reason for fluctuation of microscopic stress, which also proves that the inhomogeneous distribution of metal organization is the cause for the complex distribution of microscopic stress. The model can well describe stress distribution of thick plate caused by thermal deformation. Besides, it well describes mechanism of stress fluctuation.展开更多

The simulation results show that after rolling the crystal predominantly rotates around the transverse direction(TD) for both orientations. The rotations around the rolling direction(RD) and the normal direction(ND) are negligible. The reduction plays a significant role in the texture evolution. The TD rotation angle increases with increasing reduction. The deformation bands exist in the rolled specimens with the cubic initial orientation. Compared with the cubic oriented specimens,the TD rotation angles in the Goss oriented specimens are very small.展开更多
