The results show that the effect of temperature on fracture elongation is more significant than strain rate. High temperature and low strain rate will increase the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) volume fraction and softening effect, which inhibits the nucleation and growth of voids, thereby enhancing the plastic deformation ability of the alloy.

The statistical accuracy and performance of the classifier are quantified using the confusion matrix and multiclass Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, respectively.

Simulation methods can be used to model the complex material behavior of NCFs and predict their deformation during the draping process. However, NCFs do not intrinsically deform under pure shear like most woven fabrics, but often under superimposed shear, transverse tension and in-plane roving compaction. Therefore, non-standard characterization methods have to be applied besides typical picture frame tests or bias-extension tests. Off-axis-tension tests (OATs) utilize a simple setup to characterize a fabric’s membrane behavior under different ratios of superimposed shear, transverse tension and in-plane compaction.

A method is presented to measure the fiber curvatures in addition to the occurring strains. The investigations reveal a relatively symmetrical, shear-dominated behavior with limited roving slippage for the Biax-NCF. The behavior of the UD-NCF strongly depends on the stitching load during tests and is characterized by an asymmetric shear behavior as well as significant roving slippage.

To extend their applications, 3D printed parts need to be welded in order to form the larger functional assemblies. For this purpose, Laser Transmission Welding (LTW) is a promising joining technology. This paper aims to investigate the light scattering effect on the intensity profile of the laser heat source during the transmission through the 3D printed laser-transparent part. Indeed, the inherent design of the 3D printing technology results in a complex heterogeneous microstructure with a significant amount of porosity inside the printed parts. Such structure induces the optical diffusion (i.e. light scattering) of the laser beam within the 3D printed parts. This phenomenon leads to the reduction of the transmitted energy arriving at the weld interface, which directly influences the quality of the joint and its mechanical performance. The approach adopted in this paper is to propose a ray-tracing model to simulate the optical paths of the laser beam through the 3D printed laser-transparent part, which is able to evaluate changes in the laser heat source at the weld interface directly linked with the light scattering effect within the microstructure of the parts. Experimental measurements are performed to assess the transmitted intensity flux distribution using an image processing technique, instrumented with a digital camera and macro lens. The numerical results show good accordance with the experimental one, which proves the confidence of the proposed ray-tracing model. Finally, 3D transient thermal model of the LTW process is performed using the FEM software COMSOL Multiphysic® to confirm the influence of the scattering effect on the temperature field and thus on the quality of the weld.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":591,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Material Forming","volume":"16 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134795678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
