Flame straightening is a technology process used to eliminate deformations. This method relies on local heating of the material to correct geometry or damaged parts. In the local automobile services its main use is for repairs of less critical deformed components. The maximum temperature and thermal gradient, heating time, cooling rate and number of heating cycles affect the mechanical properties since local heating can alter material microstructure. The aim of this research was to determine the mechanical characteristics of thin steel plates repaired by local heating associated with plastic deformation (similar to hot working) and cold straightening (similar to local cold working) for automotive side and door panels made of structural steel. Thin sheet plates, 0.9mm thickness, were deformed by impact and repaired by local heating using the flame and induction heating then plastically deformed while hot as well as straightened without heating. The heat repaired samples were studied by light microscopy to determine microstructure change and samples were tensile tested to determine their mechanical characteristics. Local excessive grain growth generates anisotropy, the assembly behaves as a composite material with regions that show significant plastic deformations while others little or no deformations at al. Without procedures adjusted to each material repairs involving heating are to be avoided, cold working should be employed when replacement is not possible.

The interaction of components in modifying mixtures with the elements of Fe-Mn-С alloys hyperfine structure is investigated. Comprehensive study of the modified material microstructure is conducted. The substructure of Fe-Mn-С alloys is shown to undergo significant changes. The produced castings are characterized with enhanced physical-and-chemical and technological properties

The present paper offers a continuum modelling of trap-affected hydrogen diffusion in metals and alloys, accounting for different physical variables of both macroscopic nature (i.e., related to continuum mechanics, e.g., stress and strain) and microscopic characteristics (material microstructure, traps, etc.). To this end, the model of hydrogen diffusion assisted by the gradients of both hydrostatic stress and cumulative plastic strain,stress-and-strain assisted hydrogen diffusion, proposed and frequently used by the authors of the present paper (Toribio & Kharin) is analysed in addition to other well-known models such as those proposed by (i) McNabb & Foster, (ii) Oriani, (iii) Leblond & Dubois, (iv) Sofronis & McMeeking, (v) Krom and Bakker, showing their physical and mathematical differences and similarities to account for different physical variables.

Friction stir forming (FSF) is a new environmentally friendly manufacturing process for lap joining of dissimilar materials. Fundamentally, this process is based on frictionally heating and mechanically stirring work material of the top piece in a plasticized state to form a mechanical interlocking joint within the bottom material. In this research, the significant process parameters were identified and optimized for Al 6014 alloy and mild steel using a design of experiments (DOE) methodology. The overall joint structure and grain microstructure were mapped as the FSF process progressed and the aluminum work material deformed through different stages. It was found that the work material within the joint exhibited two layers, thermomechanical affected zone, which formed due to the contact pressure and angular momentum of the tool, and heat affected formation zone, which was composed of work material formed through the hole in the steel sheet and into the anvil cavity. Two different geometries of anvil design were employed to investigate geometrical effects during FSF of the aluminum. It was found that the direction and amount of work material deformation under the tool varies from the center to the shoulder.

The method of imparting ultrasonic vibration to the cutting tool is known to improve the shape accuracy and finished surface roughness. However, a uniform evaluation of this function in drilling has not been achieved, and the cutting process cannot be checked from the outside. The aim of this study is to investigate the cutting characteristics in deep hole drilling when an ultrasonic vibrator on the table of a machining center provides vibration with a frequency of 20 kHz to the work piece. The ultrasonic vibrations in this system reach the maximum amplitude in the center of the work material. We evaluated the change in finished surface roughness between the section where drilling starts to the point of maximum amplitude with ultrasonic vibration. The main cutting conditions are as follows: cutting speed (V) 12.6 (mm/min); feed rate (s) 30, 60 (mm/rev); depth of cut (t) = 32 (mm); work material, tool steel; cutting tool material, HSS; point angle (σ) 118 (°); and drill diameter (φ) 4 (mm). Lubricant powder was also added to clarify the cutting effect, and compared the condition in which there was no ultrasonic vibration. The results showed that surface roughness at the point of maximum amplitude was better than that with no vibration.

Abstract The present work concerns the modeling of the Payne effect in nonlinear viscoelasticity. This effect is a characteristic property of filled elastomers. Indeed, under cyclic loading of increasing amplitude, a decrease is shown in the storage modulus and a peak in the loss modulus. In this study, the Payne effect is assumed to arise from a change of the material microstructure, i.e., the thixotropy. The so-called intrinsic time or shift time was inferred from solving a differential equation that represents the evolution of a material's microstructure. Then, the physical time is replaced by the shift time in the framework of a recent fractional visco-hyperelastic model, which was linearized in the neighborhood of a static pre-deformation. As a result, we have investigated the effects of static pre-deformation, frequency, and magnitude of dynamic strain on storage and loss moduli in the steady state. Thereafter, the same set of parameters identified from the complex Young's modulus was used to predict the stress in the pre-deformed configuration. Finally, it is demonstrated that the proposed model is reasonably accurate in predicting Payne effect.
