Finish turning is one of the key operations governing residual stresses below machined surface. The stress state depends on cutting conditions and selected tool system, i.e. macro geometry, edge preparation as well grade. However, wear often affects interaction between workpiece leading to severe modifications state. This work aims at investigating influence surface integrity in longitudinal a 15-5PH stainless steel. First, an experimental sensitivity study performed assess effect various...
Within the framework of welding steel components in pressurized water reactors, optimization weld pool penetration is a major issue. The thermal‐hydraulics molten can be driven by Marangoni flows at free surface. To compute these flows, liquid steel's thermophysical properties such as density ρ and surface tension σ are required. Such for austenitic vessel AISI 304L state scarce, even not available above 1800 °C, due to technological issues. viscometer temperature installation (VITI)...
This paper aims at introducing a new nodal-integration-based finite element method for the numerical calculation of residual stresses induced by welding processes. The main advantage proposed is to be based on first-order tetrahedral meshes, thus greatly facilitating meshing complex geometries using currently available tools. In addition, formulation problem avoids any locking phenomena arising from plastic incompressibility associated with von Mises plasticity and encountered standard...

To ensure the assembly, global distortion those must be mastered minimized, mainly by predicting evolution residual stress field during manufacturing process chain. During machining, stresses redistributed reach another equilibrium state, leading a macroscopic part distortion. The main objective this work is study...

The modeling of cutting processes by the finite element method represents a great challenge for scientific researchers. Indeed, plastic strain and rate in induce high risk mesh distortion, especially models based on Lagrangian formulation which were first to be developed. To overcome this problem other formulations, such as Arbitrary Eulerian-Lagrangian (ALE), is combination classical formulations (Eulerian Lagrangian), have been Despite very interesting results simulation orthogonal...

At least two kinds parameters are modified: geometry (crater flank wear) tribological phenomena between (wear each layer coating)...
