A high speed camera is integrated to record the surface evolution of the specimen through the observation window.
In particular, the evolution of the specimen geometry during the deformation under multi-axial loading conditions are also well-predicted by the constitutive model.
The damage evolution of the specimen started to become drastic once the applied strain rate exceeded 1000 s−1, as shown in Fig. 10 which provides the images of the specimens after testing.
Mechanical properties and microstructure evolution of the specimen processed by the sequence were investigated by tension, Vickers micro-hardness, electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), and fatigue tests compared with those for the conventional wire-drawing process.
Mechanical properties, microstructure and texture evolution of the specimen processed by the newly proposed process and conventional wire drawing (WD) were investigated by tension test, electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) for comparison.
In addition, the thermomechanical model consisting of a beam sample with a length of 80 mm was implemented to evaluate the evolution of the specimen deformation, and residual stress distribution during laser post-remelting.
Moreover, the thermographic technique was used during the static tests in order to identify the fracture zone and also during the fatigue tests, carried out at different frequencies, to study the temperature evolution of the specimen.
The 2D full-field displacements of the pure flexural zone were registered using 4 digital cameras and commercial software that enables the evolution of the specimen cracks to be analysed.
Experiments were conducted for refractory alloy and C/SiC (carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites) and the surface evolution of these specimens at high temperature was recorded.
In the present work, a 3D multi-layer model of the plasma spray process was developed to study the thermal and mechanical evolutions of the specimen.
