Three-dimensional analysis of compaction of metal powder

Cedergren, Joakim LU ; Sørensen, NJ and Bergmark, A (2002) In Mechanics of Materials 34(1). p.43-59
Abstract
Three-dimensional compaction simulations of geometries with circular and quadratic cross-sections are reported using dilatant viscoplastic material models representing a ductile steel powder. The simulations are compared with experiments using in situ measurements of the wall-tractions within the die. Two different porous viscoplastic material models have been used: the combined Fleck-Kuhn-MeMeeking (FKM) and Gurson model and the Shima-Oyane model. The contact between the die and the powder was modelled with Coulomb-type friction. Effects such as the applied traction-density response and average relations for the upper, lower and the normal tractions against the die wall are compared. Comparisons between the numerical results and... (More)
Three-dimensional compaction simulations of geometries with circular and quadratic cross-sections are reported using dilatant viscoplastic material models representing a ductile steel powder. The simulations are compared with experiments using in situ measurements of the wall-tractions within the die. Two different porous viscoplastic material models have been used: the combined Fleck-Kuhn-MeMeeking (FKM) and Gurson model and the Shima-Oyane model. The contact between the die and the powder was modelled with Coulomb-type friction. Effects such as the applied traction-density response and average relations for the upper, lower and the normal tractions against the die wall are compared. Comparisons between the numerical results and experimental results show that both material models can well be used to capture the overall density distributions for the geometries studied and that many of the coarse three-dimensional features of the powder-pressing process are well described by the simulations.
