Abstract

Sustainability in manufacturing is increasingly pushing the metal forming sector to manufacture components with less material wastage. Flow-forming is a sustainable manufacturing route to produce high-value near-net-shape components of complex geometries. The triaxial stress-state and localised deformation occurring during this process necessitates the comprehension of underlying deformation micromechanisms. In this study, flow-forming of MLX^®19 maraging steel alloy was performed at varying feed rates and the effect on the concomitant microstructural evolution was examined. Increasing the feed rates from 5 to 10 mm/rev resulted in a localised deformation and defects in the flow-formed component. The microstructural features of the outer region of the flow-formed component demonstrated refined and elongated grains while the centre and inner regions exhibited less refined grains. The obtained microstructural heterogeneity was further correlated with the associated governing factors such as the deformation and thermal gradients, as well as strain distribution. Regarding the crystallographic texture evolution, the outer region showed the highest volume fraction (~ 16%) of the rotated Goss component \(\left(011\right)\left[0\overline{1 }1\right]\) indicating that this region underwent excessive shear deformation in addition to compression. On the other hand, the inner region displayed predominant copper-like \(\left(111\right)\left[0\overline{1 }1\right]\) and rotated cube \(\left(001\right)\left[\overline{1 }10\right]\) textures (~ 24.5 and 13.6% respectively) suggesting the fact that the inner region experienced predominantly compressive deformation. Tensile tests confirmed that the flow-formed component demonstrated higher strength and lower ductility compared to the base metal (BM) which was attributed to the dislocation density and refined grain formation.

流动成形马氏体时效无缝管的可持续制造：组织-性能关系

制造业的可持续性正日益推动金属成型行业制造材料浪费更少的部件。流动成形是一种可持续的制造路线，以生产高价值的近净形状的复杂几何部件。在此过程中发生的三轴应力状态和局部变形需要理解潜在的变形微观机制。本研究研究了不同进料速率下MLX®19马氏体时效钢合金的流动成形，并研究了其对伴随组织演变的影响。将进给量从5毫米/转增加到10毫米/转，会导致流动部件出现局部变形和缺陷。流成组分的外区表现为细化和拉长的晶粒，而中心和内区表现为不太细化的晶粒。得到的显微组织非均质性进一步与相关的控制因素（如变形梯度、热梯度以及应变分布）相关。晶体织构演化中，外区体积分数最高(16%) of the rotated Goss component \(\left(011\right)\left[0\overline{1 }1\right]\) indicating that this region underwent excessive shear deformation in addition to compression. On the other hand, the inner region displayed predominant copper-like \(\left(111\right)\left[0\overline{1 }1\right]\) and rotated cube \(\left(001\right)\left[\overline{1 }10\right]\) textures (~ 24.5 and 13.6% respectively) suggesting the fact that the inner region experienced predominantly compressive deformation. Tensile tests confirmed that the flow-formed component demonstrated higher strength and lower ductility compared to the base metal (BM) which was attributed to the dislocation density and refined grain formation.

期刊介绍： Archives of Civil and Mechanical Engineering (ACME) publishes both theoretical and experimental original research articles which explore or exploit new ideas and techniques in three main areas: structural engineering, mechanics of materials and materials science. The aim of the journal is to advance science related to structural engineering focusing on structures, machines and mechanical systems. The journal also promotes advancement in the area of mechanics of materials, by publishing most recent findings in elasticity, plasticity, rheology, fatigue and fracture mechanics. The third area the journal is concentrating on is materials science, with emphasis on metals, composites, etc., their structures and properties as well as methods of evaluation. In addition to research papers, the Editorial Board welcomes state-of-the-art reviews on specialized topics. All such articles have to be sent to the Editor-in-Chief before submission for pre-submission review process. Only articles approved by the Editor-in-Chief in pre-submission process can be submitted to the journal for further processing. Approval in pre-submission stage doesn''t guarantee acceptance for publication as all papers are subject to a regular referee procedure.
