The paper describes a cause of the geometric accuracy degradation of slender metallic products during their operation, which consists in the relaxation of residual stresses accumulated while product manufacturing. The most promising technology among the existing technologies of residual stress relaxation is based on the use of vibromechanical vibrations. This technology has high performance and low energy consumption. The reason for the relaxation of residual stresses under the action of vibromechanical vibrations is the gradual accumulation of internal energy, which leads to plastic dislocation shifts upon reaching a critical level. The dislocation motion under the action of vibromechanical vibrations continues until the dislocations take a more compact layout that corresponds to the equilibrium energy state. For technological implementation of the process there was developed a method of ultrasonic stabilization of elastic plates, which serve as sensing elements in differential-pressure transducers. The experimental studies of ultrasonic stabilization are carried out. According to the results of the studies, there have been conducted tests of the microstructure of the control samples. It is established that the samples of steel 20CH13 subject to ultrasonic treatment have a more uniform structure than the samples after the factory technology of long "aging". This confirms the assumption about the structural-energy processes occurring during vibromechanical relaxation of residual stresses. The technology of ultrasonic stabilization can be recommended as a replacement to the "aging" technology on the basis of the obtained results.
Abstract. The paper describes the mechanism of micro-cracks development in solid structural materials based on the theory of brittle fracture. A probability function of material cracks energy distribution is obtained using a probabilistic approach. The paper states energy conditions for cracks growth at material high-cycle loading. A formula allowing to calculate the amount of energy absorbed during the cracks growth is given. The paper proposes a highcycle fatigue evaluation criterion allowing to determine the maximum permissible number of solid body loading cycles, at which micro-cracks start growing rapidly up to destruction.
This paper discusses the technological method of residual stress relaxation of bearing rings by centerless running with cylindrical rolls. Described a new approach to relieve residual stresses by centerless running of elastically-deforming rolls on the basis of the geometrical setup of the equipment. It was found that geometrical setup of the equipment influences an elastic strain of parts and the degree of residual stress relaxation. We obtained a mathematical model for calculation of setup parameters to ensure the required variation value of elastic strain of the part. The results of experiments confirm the influence of the geometric setup on the magnitude of residual stress relaxation.
