To that goal, finite element analysis is performed on the parameters determining the dimensions of the sleeve like the thickness and inner diameters of the sleeve. The results show that a constant swaging pressure of about 450 MPa on the mean is distributed in the sleeve when the thickness ratio of the stress relief zone to the effective swaging zone of the sleeve is larger than 1.1 and that the swaging pressure tends to reduce linearly as much as this thickness ratio becomes smaller than 1.1. The pressure varies within a range of about 30% according to the change in the inner diameter of the sleeve whereas varies within a range less than 10% according to the change in the inner diameter when the thickness ratio is larger than 1.1. Finally, the optimal dimensions of the steel tube sleeve enabling to secure an anchor force larger than the rupture strength of the CFRP tendon with diameter of 5 mm are determined based upon the results of the parametric analysis.展开更多

Bulk texture variation with the processing passes was investigated using large gauge volume by neutron diffraction, of which results showed a combination of different components such as {00.2} basal fibre and two weak {10.0} and {11.0} fibres. Asymmetric distribution of the basal fibre around swaging direction was observed and being related to the processing parameters. Texture gradient analysis by synchrotron radiation demonstrates a non-uniform deformation of the RS processed pure Mg from surface to the centre.展开更多

Compared with conventional swaging method, the axial feed of the designed rotary swaging machine was reached by a constant pushing force. The deformation of grooves in pipe reduced section during rotary swaging was analyzed. The shrinkage and extensibility of pipe reduction were measured and calculated. Furthermore, four aspects, including outer diameter, surface roughness, extensibility and processing time of pipe reduction, which were influenced by the pushing force, were considered. The results show that the tube wall thickness increases gradually along the z-axis at sinking section. However, the outer diameters, surface roughness and micro-cracks at reduced section tend to decrease along the z-axis. Besides, the effect of variation in the pushing force on the extensibility is limited while an increase in the pushing force results in a decrease of surface roughness. Therefore, a large pushing force within the limit is beneficial to pipe reduction manufacturing during rotary swaging process.展开更多

The stress in inner tube is compressive and higher than the minimum bonding force. Meanwhile,the stiffness of inner tube impacts outer tube extension in length.展开更多
