Análise numérica e experimental dos efeitos da não-uniformidade da espessura em cascas finas cilíndricas rotativas. / Numerical and experimental analysis of the thickness non-uniformity effects in rotating circular cylindrical shells.

Brujas, Marco Antonio 17 May 2007 (has links)
Cascas cilíndricas circulares com uma pequena variação de espessura ao longo de seu comprimento, quando submetidas à rotação, apresentam em alguns casos, deslocamentos elásticos de sua superfície externa, tendendo a uma forma de um oval. O objetivo deste trabalho é estabelecer a relação entre a variação de espessura das cascas cilíndricas com a sua deformação devida às forças centrífugas medida durante a rotação utilizando-se dois enfoques, um experimental e outro numérico, no caso o método de elementos finitos (MEF). As cascas cilíndricas estudadas tiveram sua espessura de parede medidas por meio de aparelho de ultra-som, mas por serem fabricadas em ferro fundido cinzento, as suas lamelas de grafita atuam como refletores, o que torna a medição imprecisa. Os resultados da análise numérica encontrados se relacionam bem com os experimentais de maneira qualitativa, mas divergem na forma quantitativa. Modelos de cascas com variação de espessura imposta também foram criados e analisados usando-se o método de elementos finitos de forma a se avaliar o comportamento da casca cilíndrica sob diversas configurações de distribuição da variação da espessura. Sugere-se a pesquisa de novas tecnologias para medições por ultra-som de peças fabricadas de ferro fundido com grafita lamelar. Neste trabalho, a medição da forma oval foi feita utilizando-se sensores de proximidade do tipo \"eddy-current\". / Circular cylindrical shells with small thickness variations along their body, when submitted to rotation, present, in some cases, elastic displacements of their outside surface induced by centrifugal forces leading to final oval like shapes. The main purpose of this study is to establish relationships between thickness variation of the cylindrical shells with their measured deformation during the rotation, due to centrifugal forces, using two approaches, one experimental and the other one numerical, in the latter case the finite element method (FEM). The studied cylindrical shells had their wall thickness measured by means of an ultrasound device. The used material is flake graphite cast iron (gray cast iron). The graphite flakes act as reflectors, what makes such measurements imprecise. The numerical results found are satisfactory in a qualitative way, but they disagree in the quantitative form. Shell models with theoretical imperfections also were created and analyzed using the finite element method in order to evaluate the behavior of the cylindrical shell under several configurations of distribution of the shell thickness variation. Further research is necessary on new technologies to measure the thickness of pieces manufactured of flake graphite cast iron. In this research, the oval shape measurements were done by means of eddy-current proximity sensors.

Etude de l'endommagement lors du démasselotage à chaud de bielles en fonte GS ADI moulées forgées. / Study of damage during the hot-cutting of molded and forged austempered ductile iron automotive connecting rods.

Martinez, Thomas 19 December 2016 (has links)
Les travaux de cette thèse ont été initiés par la volonté industrielle de lever le verrou technologique du démasselotage à chaud de bielles en fonte GS. Ces bielles sont obtenues par un procédé de fabrication hybride innovant mêlant forgeage et fonderie en moule métallique. Ce procédé exige que le démasselotage soit effectué dans la « chaude de coulée » lorsque la fonte GS est en phase austénitique. La découpe de la fonte dans ces conditions de température fait apparaître des défauts majeurs sur les surfaces découpées préjudiciables à la suite du process. Pour pouvoir répondre à cette problématique, une étude est menée sur la caractérisation du comportement et de l’endommagement de la fonte GS dans les conditions de température du process. Une attention particulière est portée sur l’influence de la microstructure nodulaire sur les mécanismes de la rupture. Afin de se doter d’outils de simulation pour mettre au point le processus de démasselotage à chaud, les paramètres du modèle de comportement et d’endommagement de Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman appliqués à la fonte GS sont identifiés par méthode inverse. Enfin, un plan d’expérience est déployé sur un démonstrateur de découpe instrumenté afin d’obtenir la configuration optimale des paramètres process pour une découpe sans défaut. Cette dernière étude met en avant la présence d’une transition d’un mode de rupture ductile à fragile lors de l’apparition des défauts de démasselotage. / This work was initiated by the technological problematic of hot trimming of nodular cast iron connecting rods. These connecting rods are obtained by an innovative hybrid process that combines forging and metal mold casting. This process requires the trimming to be conducted at high temperatures in the is the austenitic phase of the cast iron. Hot trimming of cast iron brings up major defects on the cut surfaces which are detrimental to the continuing process. To address this problem, a study is conducted on the characterization of the mechanical behavior of nodular cast iron in the process temperature conditions. A particular attention is paid to the influence of the nodular microstructure on the failure mechanisms. To develop simulation tools for nodular cast iron hot trimming, the parameters of Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman model are identified by inverse method for our material. Finally, a design of experiment is deployed using an instrumented demonstrator to obtain the optimum parameters configuration for a maximized cut surface quality. This latest study highlights the presence of a transition from ductile to brittle mode of failure leading to the hot trimming defects.

PROGRESIVNÍ VÝROBNÍ POSTUPY A MODELOVÁNÍ STRUKTUR A VLASTNOSTÍ LITIN S KULIČKOVÝM GRAFITEM / PROGRESSIVE PRODUCTION PROCESSES AND SIMULATION OF STRUCTURES AND PROPERTIES OF SPHEROIDAL GRAPHITE CAST IRON

Musilová, Iveta January 2010 (has links)
The thesis is concerned with relationships between progressive technological processes of spheroidal graphite cast iron’s production and their structural properties. The aim of the work is to explain causal relationship between parameters of the proposed manufacturing technology of the iron type given (involving selected variants of modification and inoculation of melt and the parameters of melt crystallization, solidification and cooling down in a mould), their structure and even chemical heterogeneity of elements in this structure. For close specification of presented relationships three-dimensional model of spheroidal graphite growth was used, which was developed at the Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. Its usability in praxis has been verified on the basisis of the application of this model on experimentally acquired data. The U GRAFIT 20 model of the authors Stránský and Million counting segregation in the frame of eutectic cell has not still been used for prediction of segregation in real condition in greater extent. On the basis of the above mentioned model microsegregation within “on average” of the cell has been discovered during experimental melts. Microsegregation has been described by segregation and heterogeneity indexes. Calculated values of segregation and heterogeneity indexes have been compared with experimentally verified values. On the basis of comparison of calculated and measured values the possibility of further usage of the mentioned model in praxis has been explored.

Dépôt en couches minces de nickel chimique multifonctionnel / Thin Deposit of Multifunctional Electroless Nickel

Forestier, Igor 18 May 2018 (has links)
Les pompes sèches primaires dédiées aux procédés de fabrication en microélectronique sont soumises à des environnements très corrosifs de plus en plus oxydants et halogénés (Cl2, F2 et O2). Or pour des raisons mécaniques et économiques, les parties fonctionnelles des pompes sont usinées dans la fonte à graphite sphéroïdale EN-GJS-500-7. La fonte est alors protégée par un dépôt de nickel-phosphore (NiP) chimique. Cette thèse, reprend des études classiques sur la cinétique et le mécanisme de nickelage d'une part, et sur l'optimisation des propriétés mécaniques et la résistance à la corrosion des couches de NiP d'autre part. Cependant, le caractère innovant de ce travail repose sur la réalisation de couches NiP sur un substrat en fonte à graphite sphéroïdale.L'étude de la cinétique de nickelage et la caractérisation morphologique des revêtements en fonction du temps de dépôt a montré l'influence de la nature chimique du substrat. Les sphères de graphite affleurantes à la surface du substrat n'étant pas catalyseur du nickel chimique, provoque des défauts dans le revêtement, dommageables pour la conformité du dépôt. Il a été montré qu'une polarisation cathodique de la surface du substrat pouvait, dans les premiers instants du dépôt, amorcer le nickelage à l'aplomb des sphères de graphite.Une relation entre la microstructure des dépôts en fonction des traitements thermiques subis et des propriétés mécaniques des couches de NiP a été mise une évidence. Les dépôts NiP amorphes présentent une faible dureté et un comportement ductile tandis que les dépôts cristallisés possèdent une dureté élevée et un comportement fragile. Ces dépôts ont une bonne tenue à la corrosion en milieux halogéné lorsqu'ils sont intacts. Actuellement, au niveau industriel, les dépôts les plus fragiles sont choisis, bien qu'ils présentent une résistance à la corrosion plus faible : en effet, la durée de vie des pompes est alors supérieure car les effets de grippage sont atténués.Mots-clés : nickel chimique, résistance à la corrosion, fonte à graphite sphéroïdale, caractérisation physico-chimique, couches minces, durabilité mécanique / Primary dry pumps dedicated to manufacturing processes in microelectronics are subjected to highly corrosive environments that are increasingly oxidizing and halogenous (Cl2, F2 and O2). However, for mechanical and economic reasons, the functional parts of the pumps are machined in EN-GJS-500-7 spheroidal graphite cast iron. The cast iron is consequently protected by a nickel-phosphorus chemical deposit. This thesis is based on classical studies on the kinetics and the nickel-plating mechanism on the one hand, and on the optimization of the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the NiP layers on the other hand. The innovative nature of this work is based on the production of NiP layers on a spheroidal graphite cast iron substrate.The study of the kinetics of nickel-plating as well as the morphological characterization of coatings as a function of the deposit time showed the influence of the chemical nature of the substrate. The flush graphite spheres on the surface of the substrate being not a catalyst for the chemical nickel, they can cause defects in the coating and a loss of compliance. It has been shown that a cathodic polarization of the surface of the substrate, in the first moments of the deposit, could initiate the nickel-plating right on the graphite spheres.A relationship exists between the microstructure of the deposits as a function of the thermal treatments undergone and the mechanical properties of the NiP layers. The amorphous NiP deposits have a low hardness and a ductile behavior while crystallized deposits have a high hardness and a brittle behavior. These deposits have a good resistance to corrosion in halogenated environments when they are intact. Actually, at the industrial level, the most brittle deposits are chosen, although they have a lower corrosion résistance: indeed, the service life of the pumps is higher because the seizing effect are minimized.Keywords: electroless nickel, resistance to corrosion, spheroidal graphite cast iron, physicochemical characterization, thin layers, mechanical durability

Formation des microstructures dans la fonte à graphite spheroïdal aux premiers instants de la solidification / Microstructure formation of spheroidal graphite cast iron at the very begining of solidification

Wang, Shuyan 28 November 2012 (has links)
Les conditions thermiques et le traitement du métal liquide pour la coulée centrifuge des tuyaux de canalisation permettent d'obtenir une solidification sous forme de graphite sphéroïdal sur l'ensemble de l'épaisseur. Il est parfois observé en peau des zones solidifiant selon le mode blanc qui peuvent induire des différences de réponses métallurgiques problématiques. La caractérisation de tuyaux de différents diamètres montre qu'une compétition entre la croissance de l'eutectique métastable et la germination et croissance de l'eutectique stable existe dès le tout début de la solidification. Pour préciser les conditions thermiques de cette compétition un dispositif de chute de goute sur substrat a été utilisé pour lequel la solidification rapide et dirigée se déroule avec mesure de l?évolution de la température aux premiers moments de la solidification (t<200 ms). La caractérisation des microstructures à l'état brut de coulée et après traitement thermique a montré que ce dispositif permettait de reproduire les conditions thermiques de la peau des tuyaux et de figer la structure précurseur de celle obtenue par coulée centrifuge. Un modèle physique décrivant les premiers instants de la solidification sous très fort gradient thermique d'une fonte inoculée et traitée au Mg est présenté, prenant en compte la cinétique de germination et croissance des nodules de graphite en compétition avec la solidification de l'eutectique métastable. La comparaison entre les résultats du modèle et les caractérisations microstructurales permet de préciser les scénarios de formation des microstructures en découplant l'influence du gradient thermique et de la vitesse de solidification / The thermal conditions and the treatment of the liquid metal for centrifugal casting of pipes lead to the solidification of the melt in the form of spheroidal graphite (SG) iron throughout the thickness. However it is sometimes observed zones that are solidified within the white mode (eutectic austenite / cementite) mainly in the skin of the product. These areas lead to differences which could be problematic. Further characterization of the microstructure of pipes shows that competition between the nucleation and growth of stable and metastable eutectic growth exists from the beginning of solidification. To clarify the thermal conditions of this competition an experimental device has been used. Liquid metal droplet fall on a cold substrate. Rapid directionnal solidification occurs and the temperature evolution of the lower surface of the droplet is recorded during the very first moment of solidification (< 200 ms). Characterization of droplet microstructures obtained in as-cast state and after heat treatment showed that the device is able to froze the solidified microstructure in an earlier stage of formation than in the as cast pipe. A physical model describing the first instants of the solidification under very high thermal gradient of a cast iron which is inoculated and treated with Mg is presented, taking into account the kinetics of nucleation and growth of graphite nodules in competition with the solidification of the metastable eutectic. The comparison between the calcluated results and microstructural characterizations allows to specify microstructures devlopment scenarios by decoupling the influence of the thermal gradient and solidification rate

Abu Khait, Yosef January 2018 (has links)
In this thesis, the structural and mechanical changes, which took place in flake graphite cast iron after electron beam surface melting and chrome-nickel surface alloying, were studied. Furthermore, the effect of set parameters on properties and depth of the melted and alloyed region is also analyzed. In the experimental part, the analyzed microstructures, micro-hardness and the distribution of elements after melting and alloying, were presented. Structural differences of material regions caused by melting were described based on microstructures. In the end of diploma thesis, the conclusions of using EB technology for surface melting and alloying were discussed.
