The die design for this process was numerically and experimentally studied. After finding a good correlation between the numerical and experimental results, more comprehensive FE analyses were carried out. Different die geometrical parameters were considered and their effects on the induced plastic strain, stress distribution, velocity field and forming load of the process were investigated. It was found that by this process with a suitable set of die geometrical parameters, higher induced effective strain and more homogeneous strain distribution could be achieved in comparison with ECLE operation.展开更多

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) tests as well as the shear punch test were employed to study the quality and strength of the bond between the two alloys. It was found that the process temperature was an important factor affecting the level of interfacial bonding, such that increasing the temperature from 250 to 300℃ has improved the strength by 37% and the thickness of the bond between the layers by 4.5%. Moreover, this temperature rise reduced the maximum required forming load by 13%. However, the hardness tests showed that this increase in the process temperature resulted in 4% decrease in the hardness of the composite bar.展开更多

It optimizes a modified β value and the background value, and takes two times fitting optimization. The new model extends equal intervals to non-equal-intervals and is suitable for general data modelling and estimating parameters of the direct Verhulst GM(1,1). The new model does not need to pre-process the primitive data, nor accumulate generating operation (AGO) and inverse accumulated generating operation (IAGO). It is not only suitable for equal interval data modelling, but also for non-equal interval data modelling. As the new information is fully used and two times fitting optimization is taken, the fitting accuracy is the highest in all existing models. The example shows that the new model is simple and practical. The new model is worth expanding on and applying in data processing or on-line monitoring for tests, social sciences and other engineering sciences.展开更多
