In this current stu...Laser shock peening is a modernized surface enhancement performed methodically to improve fatigue life, enhance the hardness of the material and make coarse grains flat under the superficial layer. In this current study, the effect of varying optimized multiple laser shock peening (LSP) is studied on the surface integrity, microhardness, and mechanical properties. The results show that the LSP-treated specimens have visible signs of valleys, wavy and varying height distribution as well as dimples. However, the presence of non-uniformity and sharp protrusions was detected from the superficiality of the as-received specimen and this was so because of the SiC abrasive material used to polish the superficial layer of the specimen before the test experiment. Prior to LSP, the surface roughness was 2 μm, however, after LSP the roughness increased to 4 μm, 6 μm and 17 μm for 1, 2, and 4 impacts, respectively. High-density dislocation can also be observed close to the grain boundary because the grain boundary prevents the migration of dislocation which could lead to dislocation walls and dislocation tangles. The increase in impacts decrease the average grain size, nevertheless, the micro-strain increased after multiple impacts. Furthermore, coarse grains after LSP were transformed into finer grains. The increase in the number of impacts increases the micro-strain likewise the full-width half maximum (FWHM). Finally, the increase in microhardness increases as the LSP impacts increase.展开更多

This ...The technique of creep feed grinding is most suitable for geometrical shaping, and therefore has been expected to improve effectively material removal rate and surface quality of components with complex profile. This article studies experimentally the effects of process parameters （i.e. wheel speed, workpiece speed and depth of cut） on the grindability and surface integrity of cast nickel-based superalloys, i.e. K424, during creep feed grinding with brazed cubic boron nitride （CBN） abrasive wheels. Some important factors, such as grinding force and temperature, specific grinding energy, size stability, surface topography, microhardhess and microstructure alteration of the sub-surface, residual stresses, are investigated in detail. The results show that during creep feed grinding with brazed CBN wheels, low grinding temperature at about 100 ℃ is obtained though the specific grinding energy of nickel-based superalloys is high up to 200-300 J/mm^3. A combination of wheel speed 22.5 m/s, workpiece speed 0.1 m/min, depth of cut 0.2 mm accomplishes the straight grooves with the expected dimensional accuracy. Moreover, the compressive residual stresses are formed in the bum-free and crack-free ground surface.展开更多

The dimension accuracy of the tenon is assessed and the results indicate that it completely meets the requirement of blade tenon of aero-engine. Residual stresses, surface roughness, microstructure and microhardness are measured on ground surfaces of the specimen, which are all compared with that ground with vitrified CBN wheels. Under all the circumstances, compressive residual stress is obtained and the depth of the machining affected zone is found to be less than 40 μm. No phase transformation is observed at depths of up to 100 lain below the surface, though plastic deformation is visible in the process of grain refinement. The residual stress and microhardness of specimens ground with brazed CBN wheels are observed to be lower than those ground with vitrified ones. The arithmetic mean roughness （Ra） values obtained are all below 0.8μm.展开更多

Ultimately, some application examples of surface integrity remanufacturing technologies as well as their effects in aeroengine maintenance are introduced. The discarded components have been reused and their service lives have been extended and their reliability has been increased by implementing surface integrity remanufacturing. It has realized "The Repaired Components Outpacing the New Ones", material saving, energy saving, and emission reduction.展开更多

The mechanical properties lead to challenges in machining operations such as high process temperature as well as rapidly increasing tool wear. The conventional tool materials are not able to maintain their hardness and other mechanical prop- erties at higher cutting temperatures encountered in high speed machining. In this work, the new material tools, which are poly- crystalline diamond （PCD） and polycrystalline cubic boron nitride （PCBN） tools, are used in high-speed milling of Ti-6.5AI-2Zr-IMo-IV （TA15） alloy. The performance and wear mechanism of the tools are investigated. Compared to PCBN tool, PCD tool has a much longer tool life, especially at higher cutting speeds. Analyses based on the SEM and EDX suggest that attrition, adhesion and diffusion are the main wear mechanisms of PCD and PCBN tools in high-speed milling of TA 15. Oxida- tion wear is also observed at PCBN tool/workpiece interface. Roughness, defects, micro-hardness and microstructure of the ma- chined surface are investigated. The recorded surface roughness values with PCD/PCBN tools are bellow 0.3 μm at initial and steady cutting stage. Micro-hardness analysis shows that the machined surface hardening depth with PCD and PCBN tools is small. There is no evidence of sub-surface defects with PCD and PCBN tools. It is concluded that for TA15 alloy, high-speed milling can be carried out with PCD/PCBN tools.展开更多

Quantitative relations among the manufacturing parameters, surface integrities, and fatigue performance are not clear, which seriously limits the effectiveness of an anti-fatigue design. For this work, tooth-bending fatigue tests of carburized gears with different surface integrities were performed using a pulsator. The effects of the manufacturing parameters and surface integrities on the gear fatigue, such as surface hardness and residual stress, were investigated. The experimental results revealed that due to the improvement of surface integrities after shot peening, the nominal bending stress number(fatigue limit) increased by 6.3%–31.1%, with an amplitude range of 39–143 MPa. A supervised learning algorithm of a random forest was implemented to determine the contribution of the surface hardness and surface residual stress to the nominal stress number. An empirical formula was proposed to predict the nominal stress number considering the surface integrities. The prediction error was less than 7.53%, as verified by several gear-bending fatigue tests. This provided theoretical support for the modern, anti-fatigue design of the gears.展开更多

文摘Current machining studies have reported effects of prevalent and common factors,while ultra⁃high finish requires holistic approach to identify all factors and investigate their effects on machining of hard to machine materials.In this work,a less investigated yet important factor,roughness of the uncut surface,was studied,and its effects on the individual response,i.e.,surface finish of the machined part,were found to be significant.AISI 316,which is mainly applied in strategic areas,was selected and three effective turning factors,cutting speed(A),feed rate(B),and roughness of the uncut surface(C)on three output responses including surface roughness of the machined surface(Ra),microhardness(HV),and material removal rate(MRR),were reported.Further,single response optimization of the individual output response and multi⁃response optimization of all the three responses were carried out.Taguchi L9 orthogonal array based signal⁃to⁃noise(S/N)ratio method was used for individual response optimization,and grey relational analysis(GRA)was employed for multi⁃response optimization.Effects of the process factors on the output responses were evaluated through inclusive statistical analyses.The individual response optimization revealed that there was a considerable effect of roughness of the uncut surface on the machining performance.Results of the GRA illustrated that the speed during the cutting process and the feed rate had substantial trace on the surface integrity(indicated by Ra and HV)and production rate(indicated by MRR),while roughness of the uncut surface did not have a significant effect.

文摘This study is concerned with the surface integrity of Inconel 738LC parts manufactured by selective laser melting(SLM)followed by high-speed milling(HSM).In the investigation process of surface integrity,the study employs ultradepth three-dimensional microscopy,laser scanning confocal microscopy,scanning electron microscopy,electron backscatter diffractometry,and energy dispersive spectroscopy to characterize the evolution of material microstructure,work hardening,residual stress coupling,and anisotropic effect of the building direction on surface integrity of the samples.The results show that SLM/HSM hybrid manufacturing can be an effective method to obtain better surface quality with a thinner machining metamorphic layer.High-speed machining is adopted to reduce cutting force and suppress machining heat,which is an effective way to produce better surface mechanical properties during the SLM/HSM hybrid manufacturing process.In general,high-speed milling of the SLM-built Inconel 738LC samples offers better surface integrity,compared to simplex additive manufacturing or casting.
文摘Laser shock peening is a modernized surface enhancement performed methodically to improve fatigue life, enhance the hardness of the material and make coarse grains flat under the superficial layer. In this current study, the effect of varying optimized multiple laser shock peening (LSP) is studied on the surface integrity, microhardness, and mechanical properties. The results show that the LSP-treated specimens have visible signs of valleys, wavy and varying height distribution as well as dimples. However, the presence of non-uniformity and sharp protrusions was detected from the superficiality of the as-received specimen and this was so because of the SiC abrasive material used to polish the superficial layer of the specimen before the test experiment. Prior to LSP, the surface roughness was 2 μm, however, after LSP the roughness increased to 4 μm, 6 μm and 17 μm for 1, 2, and 4 impacts, respectively. High-density dislocation can also be observed close to the grain boundary because the grain boundary prevents the migration of dislocation which could lead to dislocation walls and dislocation tangles. The increase in impacts decrease the average grain size, nevertheless, the micro-strain increased after multiple impacts. Furthermore, coarse grains after LSP were transformed into finer grains. The increase in the number of impacts increases the micro-strain likewise the full-width half maximum (FWHM). Finally, the increase in microhardness increases as the LSP impacts increase.

文摘Current Ti-based orthopedic implants often suffer from fatigue damage,therefore shortening their service lifespan.To solve this issue,in this study,mechanically polished Ti-6Al-7Nb(P-Ti6Al7Nb)was subjected to surface mechanical attrition treatment(SMAT).Effects of various SMAT process parameters,including ball diameter and treatment duration,on the surface integrity of P-Ti6Al7Nb were investigated,specifically in terms of surface quality,surface nanocrystalline layer,and residual stress.Subsequently,the microstructure,in-depth residual stress and microhardness distributions,surface roughness,and fatigue behavior in simulated body fluids of optimally SMATed Ti-6Al-7Nb(S-Ti6Al7Nb)were examined and compared to those of P-Ti6Al7Nb.Results showed that based on the experimental conditions established in the present research,the optimal parameters were determined to be a 3 mm ball diameter and a 15 min treatment duration,which resulted in excellent surface integrity;S-Ti6Al7Nb showed a 300μm-thick gradient nanostructured layer comprising the thickest nanocrystalline layer of about 20μm,a 1000μm-deep residual compressive stress field with the maximum surface residual compressive stress,and a microconcave topography but free of any defects or cracks.The microstructural evolution mechanism was also elucidated,revealing that the combination of multidirectional primary and secondary twins’intersections and twin-dislocation interactions contributed to grain refinement.Compared to P-Ti6Al7Nb,S-Ti6Al7Nb exhibited a 40%improvement in fatigue strength,owing to synergistic effects of the gradient nanostructured layer,surface work hardening,high amplitude of residual compressive stress,and improved surface integrity.These factors effectively prevented the initiation of fatigue crack at the surface and shifted it to the sublayer,and inhibited the subsequent crack propagation.

文摘Submerged abrasive waterjet peening(SAWJP)is an effective anti-fatigue manufacturing technology that is widely used to strengthen aeroengine components.This study investigated the correlation of SAWJP process parameters on surface integrity and fatigue life of titanium alloy TA19.SAWJP with different water pressures and standoff distances(SoDs)was conducted on the TA19 specimens.The surface integrity of the specimens before and after SAWJP with different process parameters was experimentally studied,including microstructure,surface roughness,microhardness,and compressive residual stress(CRS).Finally,fatigue tests of the specimens before and after SAWJP treatment with different process parameters were carried out at room temperature.The results highlighted that the fatigue life of the TA19 specimen can be increased by 5.46,5.98,and 6.28 times under relatively optimal process parameters,which is mainly due to the improved surface integrity of the specimen after SAWJP treatment.However,the fatigue life of specimens treated with improper process parameters is decreased by 0.55 to 0.69 times owing to the terrible surface roughness caused by the material erosion.This work verifies that SAWJP can effectively improve the surface integrity and fatigue life of workpieces,and reveals the relationship between process parameters,surface integrity,and fatigue life,which provides support for the promotion of SAWJP in the manufacturing fields.

文摘Advanced hole-making process is of great importance to enhance the fatigue performance of Al-Li alloy part in aviation industry.Ultrasonic peening drilling(UPD),in which an ultrasonic transversal vibration is applied to the cutting tools,is a recently proposed hole-making method that integrates precision-machining and surface strengthening by single-shot operation.In the study,kinematics,material removal mechanism and strengthening mechanism for UPD of Al-Li alloy by helical fluted reamers are analyzed.The effect of transversal vibration on the cutting performance and surface integrity is studied through comparative experiments between UPD and conventional drilling(CD)of Al-Li alloy holes.The experimental results show that UPD exhibits superior cutting performance with a maximum reduction of 52.6%in thrust force and 52.3%in torque,respectively,compared to CD.Moreover,narrower dimensional tolerance is obtained in UPD due to the reduced transversal force and improved machining stability.Additionally,deeper plastic deformation,higher surface microhardness and residual compressive stress of machined holes are obtained by UPD.The electron back-scattered diffraction(EBSD)analysis confirms that deeper machined affect area and grain refinement are realized in UPD.Therefore,the results indicate that UPD is a feasible method for achieving high-precision and strengthened holes for Al-Li alloy.

文摘Gamma titanium-aluminum(γ-TiAl)intermetallic compounds are increasingly used in manufacturing key hot-end components(e.g.,blade tenon)in aero engines due to their high specific strength and lightweight properties.Creep feed profile grinding(CFPG)as a crucial precision process that is applied to produce the final profile of the blade tenon.However,sudden surface burns and microcracks of machined c-TiAl blade tenon often occur because of its low plasticity and high strength during grinding processes,leading to poor surface integrity.In this work,CFPG experiments based on the profile characteristics ofγ-TiAl blade tenon were performed and an associated undeformed chip thickness model considering grain–workpiece contact condition was established to explore the evolution of the surface integrity.Subsequently,the surface integrity was analyzed at different positions of the blade tenon in terms of surface roughness and morphology,metallographic structure,microhardness,and residual stress.Results show that the profile characteristics of blade tenon have a significant influence on machined surface integrity because of the thermomechanical effect at various detecting positions.The residual stress was established based on the undeformed chip thickness model considering the profile structure,with a prediction error of 10%–15%.The thermomechanical effect is more obvious at the bottom area,where the surface roughness,work hardening degree,and subsurface plastic deformation range are the largest,while the values at the bevel area are the smallest.Based on the undeformed chip thickness model,a residual stress finite element simulation was conducted by employing thermomechanical coupled effects.In addition,the error between the simulation and the experiment was between 10%–15%.Strain and strain rate equations were established through the relationship between material displacement and depth.The average strain and strain rate of the ground surface when ap is 1.0 mm are 18.8%and 33.2%larger than when ap is 0.5 mm,respectively.This study deepens the understanding of surface integrity under the influence of CFPGγ-TiAl and provides a practical reference and theoretical basis for realizing high-quality profile grinding of other complex parts.

文摘The technique of creep feed grinding is most suitable for geometrical shaping, and therefore has been expected to improve effectively material removal rate and surface quality of components with complex profile. This article studies experimentally the effects of process parameters （i.e. wheel speed, workpiece speed and depth of cut） on the grindability and surface integrity of cast nickel-based superalloys, i.e. K424, during creep feed grinding with brazed cubic boron nitride （CBN） abrasive wheels. Some important factors, such as grinding force and temperature, specific grinding energy, size stability, surface topography, microhardhess and microstructure alteration of the sub-surface, residual stresses, are investigated in detail. The results show that during creep feed grinding with brazed CBN wheels, low grinding temperature at about 100 ℃ is obtained though the specific grinding energy of nickel-based superalloys is high up to 200-300 J/mm^3. A combination of wheel speed 22.5 m/s, workpiece speed 0.1 m/min, depth of cut 0.2 mm accomplishes the straight grooves with the expected dimensional accuracy. Moreover, the compressive residual stresses are formed in the bum-free and crack-free ground surface.

文摘Titanium alloy tenon is creep feed ground with monolayer brazed cubic boron nitride （CBN） shaped wheels. The dimension accuracy of the tenon is assessed and the results indicate that it completely meets the requirement of blade tenon of aero-engine. Residual stresses, surface roughness, microstructure and microhardness are measured on ground surfaces of the specimen, which are all compared with that ground with vitrified CBN wheels. Under all the circumstances, compressive residual stress is obtained and the depth of the machining affected zone is found to be less than 40 μm. No phase transformation is observed at depths of up to 100 lain below the surface, though plastic deformation is visible in the process of grain refinement. The residual stress and microhardness of specimens ground with brazed CBN wheels are observed to be lower than those ground with vitrified ones. The arithmetic mean roughness （Ra） values obtained are all below 0.8μm.
文摘Surface integrity is the major factor impacting on the operation quality, service life and reliability of the aeroengine components. The surface integrity of aeroengine component is damaged by the failures such as crack,deformation, oxidation, corrosion, erosion, and microstructural degeneration. It adopts advanced remanufacturing technologies to restore or improve the surface integrity and regenerate these high value parts. This paper firstly puts forward the concept, namely surface integrity remanufacturing for aeroengine components, and its connotation. The key remanufacturing technologies have been developed to repair the components with surface damages. Ultimately, some application examples of surface integrity remanufacturing technologies as well as their effects in aeroengine maintenance are introduced. The discarded components have been reused and their service lives have been extended and their reliability has been increased by implementing surface integrity remanufacturing. It has realized "The Repaired Components Outpacing the New Ones", material saving, energy saving, and emission reduction.

文摘Titanium alloys are widely used in aeronautics that demand a good combination of high strength, good corrosion resistance and low mass. The mechanical properties lead to challenges in machining operations such as high process temperature as well as rapidly increasing tool wear. The conventional tool materials are not able to maintain their hardness and other mechanical prop- erties at higher cutting temperatures encountered in high speed machining. In this work, the new material tools, which are poly- crystalline diamond （PCD） and polycrystalline cubic boron nitride （PCBN） tools, are used in high-speed milling of Ti-6.5AI-2Zr-IMo-IV （TA15） alloy. The performance and wear mechanism of the tools are investigated. Compared to PCBN tool, PCD tool has a much longer tool life, especially at higher cutting speeds. Analyses based on the SEM and EDX suggest that attrition, adhesion and diffusion are the main wear mechanisms of PCD and PCBN tools in high-speed milling of TA 15. Oxida- tion wear is also observed at PCBN tool/workpiece interface. Roughness, defects, micro-hardness and microstructure of the ma- chined surface are investigated. The recorded surface roughness values with PCD/PCBN tools are bellow 0.3 μm at initial and steady cutting stage. Micro-hardness analysis shows that the machined surface hardening depth with PCD and PCBN tools is small. There is no evidence of sub-surface defects with PCD and PCBN tools. It is concluded that for TA15 alloy, high-speed milling can be carried out with PCD/PCBN tools.

文摘Ni3Al-based superalloy IC10 is widely used in high temperature components of aeroengines because of its superior mechanical properties.In this paper,the creep feed grinding properties of IC10 were investigated experimentally.The effects of grinding parameters on the grinding forces and temperature were examined.Moreover,the influences of surface roughness and hardening on the high-cycle fatigue life of IC10 specimens were studied.To control the creep feed grinding parameters and enhance the fatigue life of IC10 components,the experimental results were summarized to offer a useful reference point.It is concluded that,the grinding depth is the most important factor which influencing the grinding forces and temperature;the surface roughness is the main and unfavorable factor on the fatigue life of IC10,while the surface hardening has a positive influence on the fatigue life;to obtain a better surface quality and improve the fatigue life of IC 10,the recommended grinding parameter domain involves wheel speed 2[15,20]m/s,feed rate∈[150,200]mm/min,and grinding depth∈[0.4,0.5]mm.

文摘In-situ ceramics particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites are favored in the aerospace industry due to excellent properties.However,the hard ceramic particles as the reinforcement phase bring challenges to machining.To study the effect of in-situ TiB_(2)particles on machinability and surface integrity of TiB_(2)/2024 composite and TiB_(2)/7075 composite,milling experiments were performed,and compared with conventional 2024 and 7075 aluminum alloys.In-situ TiB_(2)particles clustered at the grain boundaries and dispersed inside the matrix alloy grains hinder the dislocation movement of the matrix alloy.Therefore,the milling force and temperature of the composites are higher than those of the aluminum alloys due to the increase of the strength and the decrease of the plasticity.In the milling of composites,abrasive wear is the main wear form of carbide tools,due to the scratching of hard nano-TiB_(2)particles.The composites containing in-situ TiB_(2)particles have machining defects such as smearing,micro-scratches,micro-pits and tail on the machined surface.However,in-situ TiB_(2)particles impede the plastic deformation of the composites,which greatly reduces cutting edge marks on the machined surface.Therefore,under the same milling parameters,the surface roughness of TiB_(2)/2024 composite and TiB_(2)/7075 composite is much less than that of2024 and 7075 aluminum alloy respectively.Under the milling conditions of this experiment,the machined subsurface has no metamorphic layer,and the microhardness of the machined surface is almost the same as that of the material.Besides,compared with 2024 and 7075 aluminum alloy,machined surfaces of TiB_(2)/2024 composite and TiB_(2)/7075 composite both show tensile residual stress or low magnitude of compressive residual stress.

文摘Bending fatigue is an essential parameter that needs to be considered in the improvement process of the power density and reliability of gear drives. Quantitative relations among the manufacturing parameters, surface integrities, and fatigue performance are not clear, which seriously limits the effectiveness of an anti-fatigue design. For this work, tooth-bending fatigue tests of carburized gears with different surface integrities were performed using a pulsator. The effects of the manufacturing parameters and surface integrities on the gear fatigue, such as surface hardness and residual stress, were investigated. The experimental results revealed that due to the improvement of surface integrities after shot peening, the nominal bending stress number(fatigue limit) increased by 6.3%–31.1%, with an amplitude range of 39–143 MPa. A supervised learning algorithm of a random forest was implemented to determine the contribution of the surface hardness and surface residual stress to the nominal stress number. An empirical formula was proposed to predict the nominal stress number considering the surface integrities. The prediction error was less than 7.53%, as verified by several gear-bending fatigue tests. This provided theoretical support for the modern, anti-fatigue design of the gears.
