Constitutive equation of material has an important influence on the simulation results in the finite element simulation. In this paper, Johnson-Cook constitutive equation parameters of the high manganese steel ZGMn13 have been derived from the data of compression tests and split Hopkinson pressure bar test. Based on this equation, the finite element simulation of ZGMn13 steel cutting has been done. This Johnson-Cook constitutive model of high manganese steel ZGMn13 can accurately describe the plastic behavior of the material.

Finite element simulation of high speed machining of Ti6Al4V alloy was carried out based on the software of Abaqus. The Johnson-Cook constitutive model was chosen for the material of Ti6Al4V, the parameters of the model were obtained through the SHPB (Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) experiment. The similarity of the chips obtained from the simulation and that obtained from the experiment indicated that the parameters of the Johnson-Cook constitutive model for Ti6Al4V alloy were reliable. Different cutting parameters and different tool geometric parameters were used in the simulations to find out their effects to the simulation results. Also a comparison was made between the results got form the simulations results and the experimental results, a good agreement between them indicated that the finite element simulation of high speed machining of Ti6Al4V is reliable, so it can be concluded that the finite element simulations of high speed machining can be widely used in practice to study the more about the machining process and reduce the experimental expenses.

Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar is an apparatus that is used to study materials behavior under high speed deformation, where strain rate is very high. Hopkinson bars are usually custom made based on the needs of customers, who are mostly researchers in universities or research labs. In this work, the authors designed a small size split Hopkinson pressure bar. The objectives of this project are 1) to design a well-structured Hopkinson bar by means of solid mechanics fundamentals 2) to implement finite element simulation to verify the design. The designed Split Hopkinson bar consists of two metallic bars with a specimen placing in between, a striker assembly, an air compressor, instrumentation and a data acquisition system. The solid model of the apparatus is built using CAD software SolidWorks. The design is validated by extensive finite element simulation using ABAQUS. A working prototype is physically built and tested. High speed deformation experiments are developed using the prototype fabricated. The experiments are conducted as an impact is made by the striker on one of the bars, which generates stress wave through the specimen and the other bar. During the experiments, strain in specimen is determined by measuring strains on the bars using strain gauges mounted on the bars. Preliminary tests demonstrate that the performance of the apparatus is as predicted by the FEM simulation. This work is supported by an NSF’s CMMI (Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation) program.
