The 347 stainless steel tube cold rolling test was carried out by a LG60 two-roll pilger mill. The microstructure evolution was examined by microscope, SEM, and XRD tests. The finite element software DEFORM-3D has been used to simulate the pilgering process, and the obtained equivalent stress and metal flow were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the internal slip line was randomly distributed, the deformation of the inner wall was more intense than the outer wall structure, and the austenite γ phase was transformed into the α′-martensitic phase. The simulation results indicated that the direction of metal flow was constantly changing, and the equivalent stress of the inner wall of the steel tube was greater than the equivalent stress of the outer wall. In addition, the slip zone of the inner wall of the characteristic section was more severe than that near the outer wall slip zone. The simulation verified the experimental results to some extent.

In this study, mainly researching the improvement of roundness of thick SUS304 stainless steel tube by interior magnetic abrasive finishing using a magnetic machining jig. The influence of reciprocating velocity of magnetic pole unit on the improvement of roundness of interior surface was studied by establishing the dynamic equation of magnetic machining jig. Experimental results showed that low reciprocating velocity of magnetic pole unit is conducive to the improvement of interior roundness of the thick SUS304 stainless steel tube. The reason is that the low reciprocating velocity of magnetic pole unit reduces the pitch of the helical motion and can produce greater finishing force of the magnetic machining jig.

The stagger spinning process of 1Cr18Ni9 tube was investigated by using finite element method. The metal flow rule around the roller during the tube stagger spinning was analyzed. The influences of wall thickness of the billet on effective stress and spinning force were studied using software Deform. The simulated results indicate that the proper wall thickness of the billet should be 8~15 mm, for the billet with length of 100mm and inner diameter of 200mm.

This paper mainly researches on the effect from high-speed shearing tool to the quality of stainless steel tube cutting. At first, the relationship between contour line of vertical blade and the direction of shear force and chip flow are studied, and the influence on the quality of shearing caused by the size of blanking clearance is analyzed. Then a new blade contour line that made most of the iron chippings is located outside of the tube and reasonable blanking clearance is obtained. Further, based on the tearing caused by single-blade shear on the top of steel tube, the shape and angle of the vertical blade are studied, and the structure of the vertical blade nose is optimized, which improves the shearing quality of the blade. Finally, the numerical simulation of the process of shearing is done to verify the feasibility of the designed structure by the finite element software DEFORM.

This study investigates the disparate impact of internal pores on the fracture behavior of two metal alloys fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) additive manufacturing (AM)—316L stainless steel and Ti-6Al-4V. Data from mechanical tests over a range of stress states for dense samples and those with intentionally introduced penny-shaped pores of various diameters were used to contrast the combined impact of pore size and stress state on the fracture behavior of these two materials. The fracture data were used to calibrate and compare multiple fracture models (Mohr-Coulomb, Hosford-Coulomb, and maximum stress criteria), with results compared in equivalent stress (versus stress triaxiality and Lode angle) space, as well as in their conversions to equivalent strain space. For L-PBF 316L, the strain-based fracture models captured the stress state dependent failure behavior up to the largest pore size studied (2400 µm diameter, 16% cross-sectional area of gauge region), while for L-PBF Ti-6Al-4V, the stress-based fracture models better captured the change in failure behavior with pore size up to the largest pore size studied. This difference can be attributed to the relatively high ductility of 316L stainless steel, for which all samples underwent significant plastic deformation prior to failure, contrasted with the relatively low ductility of Ti-6Al-4V, for which, with increasing pore size, the displacement to failure was dominated by elastic deformation.

In this paper, in order to improve the microstructure uniformity of an ultra-high strength martensitic steel with a strength greater than 2500 MPa developed by multi-directional forging in the laboratory, a single-pass hot compression experiment with the strain rate of 0.01 to 1 s−1 and a temperature of 800 to 1150 °C was conducted. Based on the experimental data, the material parameters were determined, the constitutive model considering the influence of work hardening, the recrystallization softening on the dislocation density, and the recrystallized grain size model were established. After introducing the model into the finite element software DEFORM-3D, the thermal compression experiment was simulated, and the results were consistent with the experimental results. The rule for obtaining forging stock with a uniform and refinement microstructure was acquired by comparing the simulation and the experimental results, which are helpful to formulate an appropriate forging process.
