Shot-peening and deep rolling are mechanical surface treatments that commonly applied to enhance the fatigue performances of components, owing their capacity generate compressive residual stresses induce work hardening. However, literature is still poor published data concerning application these high strength steels fasteners, although represent a class components among most widespread. In present work, impact shot-peening performed in underhead radius two set fasteners made 36NiCrMo...
The aim of this paper is to analyze how the uncertainties in modelling geometry and material properties a human bone affect predictions finite-element model derived from computed tomography (CT) data. A sensitivity analysis, based on Monte Carlo method, was performed using three femur models generated vivo CT datasets, each subjected two different loading conditions. geometry, density mechanical tissue were considered as random input variables. Finite-element results typically used...
Microfluidic devices play a continuous increasing role in the drugs and nanomedicine production delivery diagnostic kits. Three main classes of materials are employed manufacturing microfluidic devices: mainly polymers, metals glasses. The mass is normally based on micro-injection molding PDMS but there cases that discourage use such as when incompatible solvents must be used drug formulation. Moreover, systems requires micro-molds, time expensive activity strongly affects development...
The reduction of scraps related to back end defects (i.e. billet skin contamination) and front charge welds) is gaining nowadays an increasing industrial interest in order obtain greater process efficiency. Today, extrusion practice faces the issue by means technician's experience, empirical rules or, most critical profiles, through time consuming expensive experimental analyses. On other side, FEM simulation dies becoming a common support tool for design new dies. Stating this scenario,...
In the paper, a die for production of complex hollow profile made by AA6060 alloy on an industrial 2500 ton press has been manufactured and tested under strict monitored conditions. particular 5 thermocouples were placed in proximity interesting positions inside die: 3 next to bearings two near welding chambers. A self-calibrated pyrometer was used temperature monitoring profile. Press loads, ram speeds container temperatures continuously recorded directly from system. Six billets initially...
Abstract Laser surface hardening is rapidly growing in industrial applications due to its high flexibility, accuracy, cleanness and energy efficiency. However, the experimental process optimization can be a tricky task number of involved parameters, thus suggesting for alternative approaches such as reliable numerical simulations. Conventional laser models compute achieved hardness on basis microstructure predictions carbon diffusion during heat thermal cycle. Nevertheless, this approach...
