Ti6al4v Titanium Alloy

This study aimed to analyze the defects of large residual stress in laser additive manufacturing metal parts by establishing a milling numerical simulation of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy thin-walled parts based on the Johnson-Cook constitutive model of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy, a modified Coulomb friction stress model, the physical chip separation criterion and other theories, combined with the finite element software ABAQUS. The influences of milling depth, initial temperature and milling speed on the forming quality of the formed part were analyzed. The results show that milling changes the residual stress distribution of the deposition layer, which can reduce or even change the residual tensile stress on the surface of the deposition layer produced by the additive manufacturing process into compressive stress, and the equivalent Mises stress decreases by 47% compared with the original forming surface. When the initial temperature increases from 20 °C to 400 °C, the maximum equivalent Mises stress of the milling surface decreases by 26%.

Stress Layer

A 3D finite element model is established to simulate the ultrasonic shot peening process by using a finite element software ABAQUS. The residual stress distribution of the AISI 304 stainless steel induced by ultrasonic shot peening (USP) is predicted by finite element analysis. Ultrasonic shot peening (USP) process can cause a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material. During the simulation, many factors, e.g., ultrasonic shot peening duration, initial residual stress, hourglass, etc., are taken into consideration for the purpose of optimizing the process. The simulation results show that ultrasonic shot peening can produce a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material even if there is initial residual tensile stress (250MPa) and the longer peening duration. The residual stress of simulation were compared with the experiment data which were obtained under the same ultrasonic shot peening parameters and have a good agreement with the measurement values by X-ray diffraction method. In conclusion, ultrasonic shot peening is an effective method for protecting weldments against stress corrosion cracking by introducing the compressive residual stress layer into the surface of stainless steel.

High Speed Cutting

In order to improve machined surface quality and reduce the deformation, the residual stress involved in cutting titanium alloy was studied under different cutting speed and cutting depth by finite element simulation method. The results indicate that the increase of cutting speed and cutting depth are helpful to the surface residual compressive stress generating. However the increase of cutting speed also leads to the increase of surface residual tensile stress, the effect degree is relatively small. It is required to select higher cutting speed and smaller cutting depth to improve the surface stress state and reduce the unexpected distortion.

Cutting Surface

Due to the complex structures of aviation products made of titanium alloy TC4, residual stress can be generated by the high speed cutting process at their surface which has an important influence on their fatigue strength and also service life. Therefore, in this paper, a 3D finite element model is built to analyze the cutting process with different tool parameters and to investigate the residual stress inside the processed surface. By the numerical study, when the cutting speed is 140 m/min, the residual tensile stress can be generated in the inner cutting surface, while the compressive residual stress in the outer cutting surface. Residual compressive stress can be enhanced by choosing the smaller tool rake angle, the bigger tool relief angle and the bigger cutting edge radius properly.

Simulation Results

The aim of this study is to develop a finite element analysis technique to characterize the distributions of temperature and stress in the process of multilayer deposition of metallic powders by laser additive manufacturing (LAM). Simulation results indicate the residual normal stress in the laser moving direction is greater than that in other directions due to a larger temperature gradient, and it increases with number of deposited layers. Highly residual stresses are present in the LAM build and at the base nearby the interface between the build and base.

The residual stress in laser additive manufacturing titanium alloy sample was measured using indentation stress measurement method. The residual stress variation formulas was fitted with the major process parameters such as laser power, scanning speed, the powder feed rate etc.. It was studied that the influence of processing layers and scanning corner on the specimen residual stress. The results show that the specimen residual stress increases first and then decreases with the increase of processing layers, and the maximum appears in the fiftieth layer, in addition, the residual stress in the side of corner sample is mainly pressure stress, the maximum appearing in the 150°scanning angle, the minimum appearing in the 120°scanning angle. Therefore, it can reduce the overall sample residual stress effectively by an obtuse angle scanning trajectory.

The present paper describes preliminary results of studies carried out using a new measurement setup and a biathlon rifle with two different interchangeable stocks: a commercial, mainly wooden one and one additively manufactured from titanium alloy and a polymer PA 2200, employing lightweight, 3D lattice architecture. A finite element analysis of the predicted mechanical properties of new design elements was carried out prior to the manufacturing. Experiments were carried out using a novel setup for the assessment of athlete and rifle performance in biathlon shooting. Data acquisition was carried out at the rates of few kilosamples per second, using a combination of an airbag-based rifle butt pressure sensor, a trigger loading sensor, strap load cell, and two tri-axis MEMS sensors—an accelerometer and a gyroscope. All tests indicate that a rifle stock additively manufactured from titanium alloy could provide better recoil damping compared to the commercial, mainly wooden one. Together with the high capacity of additive manufacturing technologies in equipment individualization, this may provide additional possibilities for the improvement of sports rifle construction and help athletes achieve better results in competitions.
