X-ray diffraction measurement in the bulk of engineering components allows evaluation of lattice spacing variation by application of Bragg law and hence, by comparison with a strain-free reference specimen, computation of elastic strains and stresses. Diffraction peak position is related to average elastic strain within the scattering grains, whilst diffraction peak shape is related to crystall...

In this paper the effect of different hardening models in simulating the U-bending process for AA5754-O and DP-Steel, taking a benchmark of NUMISHEET 93 2-D draw bending, has been discussed. The hardening models considered in simulations are: isotropic hardening, pure (linear) kinematic hardening and combined (nonlinear kinematic) hardening. The influence of hardening models on predicting sprin...

In sheet metal forming processes with complex strain paths, a part is subjected to large plastic deformation. This severe plastic deformation leads to high plastic strain localization zones and subsequent accumulation of those strains. Then internal and superficial micro-defects and in other words ductile damage is created. This damage causes quality problems such as fracture. Therefore, design...

Deep drawing of two-layer sheet is a suitable way to achieve product with a desired shape and desired properties in sheet metal forming technology. Control of deep drawing parameter such as thinning is the most important challenge in this process. The most difficult part of this challenge is differences in material properties and geometry of each layer. In this paper, numerical approach has bee...

The current study conducted a finite element (FE) and experimental investigation on tubular channel angular pressing as a noble severe plastic deformation technique for producing ultrafine grained and nanostructure tubular components. To examine the effects of the TCAP process on the strain distribution and deformation behavior, FE simulations were employed. The FE results demonstrated that equ...

In present work, prediction the effect of nose radius, rz (mm) on the equivalent strain (PEEQ) and surface finish during the machining of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) through orthogonal cutting process. The results were performed at several of the nose radiuses, rz (mm) while the cutting speed, vc (m/min), feed rate, f (mm/tooth) and depth of cut, d (mm) were remained constant. The equivalent pla...

The comprehension of the anisotropy impacts on mechanical properties of the rolled steel sheets was investigated using a non-quadratic anisotropic yield function. In this study, experimental and modelling determination regarding the behaviour of an industrial rolled sheet for a ferritic stainless low-carbon steel were carried out. The parameters of the associated yield equation, derived from th...

For elastic–plastic contacts, we propose a complete description of the plastic strain field beneath the indenter during indentation and scratch with a spherical indenter (with R, the tip radius), as a function of the testing conditions, defined by the geometrical strain, noted a/R (with a, the contact radius), and the local friction coefficient mloc. The main parameter of the description is the...

The ductile performance of high strength steel (HSS) from different grades, producers, manufacturing processes varies a lot. It is also difficult to conduct all kinds reliable experiments generate stress status through initial specimen geometries or by applying load combinations in the civil engineering sector. One common issues for HSS structures identify parameters fracture model conveniently...
