Residual stress (RS) has significant impact on cutting process optimization. However, conventional process modeling approaches are limited to only single cutting pass on very short length and time scales due to the exceedingly high computational cost. This work provides a new concept of equivalent loading which enables an efficient modeling approach to predict RS in an actual machined surface by incorporating multiple cutting passes and crossing different length and time scales. The predicted residual stress profiles are validated in turning Inconel 718 superalloy under different edge geometries and process conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
