Abstract: In order to reveal the effect laws of boosting velocity on forming quality of tube bending. A three dimensional (3D) elastic plastic finite element (FE) model of whole process of high-strength TA18 tubes in numerical control (NC) bending was established based on the FE code of ABAQUS, and its reliability was validated by using the experimental results in literature. Then, the effect laws of boosting velocity on deformation behaviors of high-strength TA18 tubes in NC bending were explored with respect to multiple defects such as wall thinning, wall thickening, cross section deformation and springback. The results show that wall thinning ratio decreases with the increasing of boosting velocity; wall thickening ratio increases with the increasing of boosting velocity; cross section deformation ratio decreases with the increasing of boosting velocity; springback decreases slightly with the increasing of boosting velocity.

Abstract: Using the method of expanding diameter in low temperature and water bath heating, this paper studied the effect of pre-deformation strain on shape memory recovery characteristics of Ni₄₇Ti₄₄Nb₉ alloy Φ8 mm pipe joint. The results showed that the transformation hysteresis was relative stable along with the pre-deformation strain more than 12.1%, which was 130°C. And the radial recoverable strain got maximum value 8.4% when the pre-deformation strain was in 10.8%~12.5%. But the radial recovery rate of inside diameter declined smoothly with the pre-deformation strain. Systems considering the three parameters of transformation hysteresis, recoverable strain and strain recovery rate, it seemed the excellent predeformed strain for Ni₄₇Ti₄₄Nb₉ alloy Φ8 mm pipe joint was just in 12%~17%.

Abstract: High energy ball mill tests under the condition of the ball material mass ratio 13:1 and the rotate speed 400 r/min have been employed to investigate the process of mechanical alloying (MA) of Ta and Cr powder mixed in the mole ratio of 1:2.The microstructure evolution process and phase composition were explained useing scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that, the milled 20h powder existed in Ta (Cr) supersaturated solid solution and amorphous after 40h. Although the hours were spent on ball milling reached to 50h, Laves phase TaCr₂ had not been made during the process.

Abstract: Based on the nonlinear FE platform ABAQUS, an elastic plastic 3D-FE model of 0Cr21Ni6Mn9N stainless steel tube was established to simulate the whole process, and its reliability was validated by experiment. Using the model, the effect of bending speed on forming quality was studied and the influence laws of bending speed on wrinkling wave ratio, wall thinning, cross section deformation and springback angle were revealed. The results show that the wrinkling wave ratio and springback angle decrease with the increasing of bending speed, while the effect of bending speed on wall thinning and cross section deformation are not significant. The maximum cross section deformation degree presents in the vicinity of the bending angle 30° along the bending direction and its position is almost unchanged with the variation of bending speed.

Abstract: Using the method of expanding diameter in low temperature and water bath heating, this paper studied the effect of pre-deformation temperature on shape memory recovery characteristics of Ni₄₇Ti₄₄Nb₉ alloy Φ16 mm pipe joint. The results showed that the transformation hysteresis and the radial recoverable strain were relative stable along with the addition of pre-deformation temperature, which were 122°C±4°C and 7.1%±0.3% respectively. Moreover the radial recovery rate of inner diameter declined smoothly with the addition of pre-deformation temperature. Systems considering the three parameters of transformation hysteresis, recoverable strain and strain recovery rate, it seemed the excellent predeformed temperature for Ni₄₇Ti₄₄Nb₉ alloy Φ16 mm pipe joint was in-65~-70°C.

Abstract: The characteristic of structural inheritance for 300M steel was explored and the eliminating effect of normalization was investigated. Then, both the first and secondary normalization process was optimized by comparing eliminate effect. It is known that obvious characteristic of structural inheritance can be shown with the condition of 810°C-840°C×30min/OC after over-heated treatment. The first normalization process whose condition is 950°C~1100°C×2.5h/air cooling has the good effect on eliminating structural inheritance. While, the secondary normalization process whose condition is 960°C~1060°C×2h/air cooling+925°C×2.5h/air cooling owns the better effect on eliminating structural inheritance.

Abstract: The relationship among stress, cavities and twinning in the room-temperature bending process of hot-rolled AZ31 Mg alloy sheet was researched. It can be seen that the mount of twins which was tightly affected by stress value increases with the distance to press point. Otherwise, the cavities and twinning which seem totally independent, in fact affect with each other. Some cavities were hindered by twins and can not further grow up. Then, the relationship between slip and twinning was also roughly discussed. The dislocation lines in twins can be thought to release the stress focus and were beneficial for deformation.

Abstract: The effect of annealing temperature（300-600°C）on the microstructure and transformation temperature of NiTiNb shape memory alloy rods deformed with equal channel angular pressing（ECAP） method was analyzed. The results show that the hard brittle phase （Ti,Nb）₂Ni was decreased after ECAP. With the rising of annealing temperature, the number of β-Nb phase increase while eutectic declines. The DSC analysis shows that the martensite and reverse transformation temperature increase with annealing temperature. After annealing with 500°C, the martensite/austenite transformation starting temperatures rise to -64.6°C and -30.1°C, respectively.

Abstract: Optimization and design for shape and size of pre-forging with numerical simulation have some advantages compared with the conventional methods. The optimization object is the pre-forgings of an aircraft wheel hub. A commercially available software DEFORM 3D is used for the finite element method (FEM) simulation of the forging process of the aircraft wheel hub. The pre-forgings with three different shapes and sizes were used for numerical simulation. The effects of shape and size of the pre-forging on mould filling, forging load, effective strain and effective stress were analyzed. Finally, the suitable shape and size of the pre-forging were obtained based on the numerical simulation results.

Abstract: A Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov (JMAK)-model was established for dynamic recrystallization in hot deformation process of 52100 steel. The effects of hot deformation temperature, true strain and strain rate on the microstructural evolution of the steel were physically studied by using Gleeble-1500 thermo-mechanical simulator and the experimental results were used for validation of the JMAK-model. Through simulation and experiment, it is found that the predicted results of DRX volume fraction, DRX grain size and average grain size are in good agreement with the experimental ones.
