As a representative type of superalloy, Inconel 718 is widely employed in aerospace, marine and nuclear industries. The significant work hardening behavior of Inconel 718 can improve the service performance of components; nevertheless, it cause extreme difficulty in machining. This paper aims to investigate the influence of chamfered edge parameters on work hardening in orthogonal cutting of Inconel 718 based on a novel hybrid method, which integrates Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) method and grain-size-based functions considering the influence of grain size on microhardness. Orthogonal cutting experiments and nanoindentation tests are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The predicted results are highly consistent with the experimental results. The depth of work hardening layer increases with increasing chamfer angle and chamfer width, also with increasing feed rate (the uncut chip thickness). However, the maximum microhardness on the machined surface does not exhibit a significant difference. The proposed method can provide theoretical guidance for the optimization of cutting parameters and improvement of the work hardening.

Grain refinement is attracting attention as a strengthening method which does not depend on the alloying elements added to steels. Many reports have described the manufacturing methods and mechanical properties of ultra-fine grained steels. In ultra-fine grained steels, it is well known that yielding stress drastically increases in accordance with the Hall-Petch relationship, while uniform elongation significantly decreases. These tendencies imply that grain size affects not only yielding but also work-hardening behavior. However, the influence of grain size on work-hardening behavior has not been clearly understood. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the work-hardening behavior during tensile deformation of 12Cr stainless steel with various grain sizes. Grain refining was conducted by cold-rolling of annealed and quenched steel specimens, followed by recrystallization annealing. The grain size of the specimens decreased as the cold-rolling reduction rate increased. The minimum grain size obtained by this method was approximately 5 μm. With decreasing grain size, 0.2% proof stress increased and the strain which reached the plastic instability condition decreased. In the session, we report the dislocation accumulation behavior estimated by grain hardness and XRD and the dynamic recovery behavior assessed by the Kocks-Mecking model.

The effect of high-temperature thermomechanical treatment on the structural transformations and mechanical properties of metastable austenitic steel of the AISI 321 type is investigated. The features of the grain and defect microstructure of steel were studied by scanning electron microscopy with electron back-scatter diffraction (SEM EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It is shown that in the initial state after solution treatment the average grain size is 18 μm. A high (≈50%) fraction of twin boundaries (annealing twins) was found. In the course of hot (with heating up to 1100 °C) plastic deformation by rolling to moderate strain (e = 1.6, where e is true strain) the grain structure undergoes fragmentation, which gives rise to grain refining (the average grain size is 8 μm). Partial recovery and recrystallization also occur. The fraction of low-angle misorientation boundaries increases up to ≈46%, and that of twin boundaries decreases to ≈25%, compared to the initial state. The yield strength after this treatment reaches up to 477 MPa with elongation-to-failure of 26%. The combination of plastic deformation with heating up to 1100 °C (e = 0.8) and subsequent deformation with heating up to 600 °C (e = 0.7) reduces the average grain size to 1.4 μm and forms submicrocrystalline fragments. The fraction of low-angle misorientation boundaries is ≈60%, and that of twin boundaries is ≈3%. The structural states formed after this treatment provide an increase in the strength properties of steel (yield strength reaches up to 677 MPa) with ductility values of 12%. The mechanisms of plastic deformation and strengthening of metastable austenitic steel under the above high-temperature thermomechanical treatments are discussed.
