Constitutive Equation for Powder Compaction Incorporating Powder Charecteristics

چکیده
The increasing importance of powdered materials fabrication has led to an increasing emphasis on the understanding of the powder behavior during compaction. During compaction, a powder mass undergoes densification owing to various mechanisms, i.e. sliding, rotation, deformation and/or fracturing of the constituent particles. These densification mechanisms are very dependent upon the powder characteristics and they divide the compaction process into a few stages.

Numerical modeling of dynamic powder compaction using the Kawakita equation of state
Dynamic powder compaction is analyzed using the assumption that the powder behaves, while it is being compacted, like a hydrodynamic fluid in which deviatoric stress and heat conduction effects can be ignored throughout the process. This enables techniques of computational fluid dynamics such the equilibrium flux method to be used as a modeling tool. The equation of state of the powder under co...

The compaction forming of metal powder is a process involving large deformations, large strain, non-linear material behavior and friction. Consequently, the numerical analysis of such a highly non-linear process is a formidable computational problem. In this paper, an ALE technique is presented based on a generalized cap plasticity model in simulation of powder forming processes. In ALE formula...

The densification response of aluminium powder reinforced with nanometric SiC particles (50 nm) during uniaxial compaction was studied. To determine the effect of SiC nanoparticles on the compressibility of the matrix, monolithic Al powder was also examined. The effect of SiC nanoparticles on the densification mechanisms, i.e. particle rearrangement and plastic deformation, was analysed using m...
متن کاملA study on the sensitivity of Drucker–Prager cap model parameters during die compaction of pharmaceutical powders
In powder die compaction, the characteristics of the end product are dictated by the mechanical properties of the powder being processed. A commonly used constitutive model describing the behavior of pharmaceutical powders during compaction is the modifi ed-Drucker Prager Cap (DPC) model. The experiments used to measure DPC parameters are time consuming and, hence, limit the model’s wide-spread...
