Abstract: The system model «high power ion beam – metal» is suggested. Regularities of impulse formation of mechanical load in the volume of metal target subjected to the action of ion beams of different component composition in the range of power density 10⁷...10¹⁰ W/cm² have been considered. The influence of generation mechanisms on the profile and amplitude-to-time parameters of shock-wave excitation is studied.

Abstract: Raising a cutting speed to above speed of a plastic wave of a workpiece material induces the high levels of the hydrostatic stresses in the shear zone, because a plastic wave traveling there becomes a shock wave. In order to ascertain the cutting phenomena occurring under the ultra high-speed cutting condition, the cutting experiments of a pure lead with cutting speeds of up to 140 m/s are performed with a high-speed impact cutting tester developed. The experimental result reveals that the cutting mechanism, especially chip formation, changes remarkably and the friction angle at the tool-chip interface rises in the ultra high-speed cutting. It can be explained that these phenomena arise from the plastic shock wave in the shear zone.

Abstract: FEM cutting simulation predicts that the plastic shock waves are generated that develop the high levels of hydrostatic stress in the shear zone when cutting speed exceeds the plastic wave speeds of the workpiece material. The orthogonal impact cutting testing machine was developed to confirm this phenomenon experimentally. In the testing machine, two guide rails are set up in parallel. The cutting tool and the workpiece are installed on the blocks that slide on the rail. Each block connected with the piston in the air tube by the pushrod is launched by the expansion of compressed air, and is accelerated rapidly. When the two blocks passes each other, cutting is done. This paper describes the details of the developed impact cutting testing machine and experimental results of cutting a pure lead at cutting speed up to 65m/s.
