Inverse Analysis Procedure to Determine Flow Stress and Friction Data for Metal Cutting Finite Element Modeling

摘要

This paper describes an automated procedure developed for the identification of Johnson-Cook (JC) law material parameters and Coulomb friction coefficient at the tool-chip interface, in the specific case of metal cutting FE analysis. The procedure has been developed in iSight environment, through the integration between AdvantEdge metal cutting FE code and an appropriately selected optimization algorithm. The identification of JC and friction parameters, in fact, has been performed considering it as an optimization problem, in which the objective function is the numerical/experimental error function minimization (in the specific case, it is related to the forces and temperatures responses). The calibration and validation phases have been performed using forces and temperatures experimental data, collected in orthogonal cutting test on SAF2507 superduplex steel.
