Abstract
This study focuses on developing a constitutive model to describe the dynamic plasticity and fracture behavior of arc-melted cladding for remanufacturing wind turbine gears. By combining quasi-static tensile tests and Split Hopkinson Tension Bar (SHTB) experiments, the research investigates the static and dynamic properties of Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) alloy cladding under various strain rates and high temperatures. Results reveal strain hardening, strain rate hardening, and thermal softening effects, leading to the establishment of Johnson-Cook(J-C) plasticity and failure models. Finite element simulations validate the model, achieving an absolute average relative error(AARE) of 8.670% and an R value of 0.9449, confirming the model’s accuracy and reliability for predicting the alloy's dynamic behavior in remanufacturing applications.
期刊介绍:
Mechanics Research Communications publishes, as rapidly as possible, peer-reviewed manuscripts of high standards but restricted length. It aims to provide:
• a fast means of communication
• an exchange of ideas among workers in mechanics
• an effective method of bringing new results quickly to the public
• an informal vehicle for the discussion
• of ideas that may still be in the formative stages
The field of Mechanics will be understood to encompass the behavior of continua, fluids, solids, particles and their mixtures. Submissions must contain a strong, novel contribution to the field of mechanics, and ideally should be focused on current issues in the field involving theoretical, experimental and/or applied research, preferably within the broad expertise encompassed by the Board of Associate Editors. Deviations from these areas should be discussed in advance with the Editor-in-Chief.
