Room-temperature dry sliding wear behavior of γ-Ni/Mo2Ni3Si metal silicide “in situ” composites

Ni-base solid solution (γ) toughened Mo₂Ni₃Si metal silicide “in situ” composites were fabricated with different volume fraction of Mo₂Ni₃Si primary dendrite uniformly distributed in irregular Mo₂Ni₃Si/γ eutectic matrix. Results of room-temperature dry sliding wear tests indicated that the composite with a medium volume fraction of primary Mo₂Ni₃Si phase possessed the best wear resistance by optimum combination of the unique mechanical property of Laves phase Mo₂Ni₃Si and toughening effect of ductile γ phase. The primary wear mechanism is microplowing and soft-abrasion of the interdendritic Mo₂Ni₃Si/γ and subsequent brittle fracture of the hard Mo₂Ni₃Si primary dendrites. Ductile γ phase provided good toughening effect to Mo₂Ni₃Si Laves phase during dry sliding wear process.

Thermal analysis of laser surface transformation hardening—optimization of process parameters

This paper deals with the optimization of process parameters for maximum productivity (given by the product of scanning velocity and cross feed) in laser transformation hardening. The process parameters considered are laser beam power, P; laser beam diameter, D_b; and the heat intensity distribution, namely, normal, bimodal, or uniform. A thermal analysis of the laser surface transformation hardening of gears was conducted (based on Jaeger’s classical moving heat source method) by considering the laser beam as a moving plane (disc) heat source to establish the temperature rise distribution in the workpiece (gear) of finite width. In a recent investigation [Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer 44 (2001) 2845], the authors considered the case of a heat source with a pseudo-Gaussian (or normal) distribution of heat intensity. The analytical results were compared with the experimental results published in the literature. In laser heat treatment of steel, it is generally considered preferable to use a wider heat intensity distribution, such as uniform or bimodal, for it enables more uniform case hardening depth. In this paper, this model is extended to cover bimodal and uniform distributions and compared with the normal distribution. Scanning velocities for no surface melting and for a case hardening depth of 0.1 mm were determined for surface transformation hardening of AISI 1036 (EN 8) steel for a range of laser beam powers, P, laser beam diameters, D_b, and various heat intensity distributions. Since diffusion during the heat treatment (surface transformation hardening) process is a time dependent phenomenon, based on the literature review, an interaction time of 15 ms was taken as a basis. It is hoped that laser industry with adequate facilities available can validate the thermal analysis and subsequent optimization presented in this paper.

A closed form solution for laser drilling of silicon nitride and alumina ceramics

A closed form solution has been obtained for laser drilling of silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) and alumina ceramics (Al₂O₃). The drilling of workpiece is performed by using a TEM₀₀ 10 ns pulse Nd:YAG laser. It is assumed that the phase transition from solid to vapor occurs without melting. Considering the absorption of plasma plume formed on the surface of the ceramics, the one-dimensional thermal model is developed in order to describe the drilling process. The governing equation of heat-diffusion is solved analytically using a Laplace transformation method. Erosion depth per laser pulse obtained from the closed form solution agrees with the available experimental data.

An Experimental Study on Laser Cutting Mechanisms of Polycrystalline Diamond Compacts

The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the cutting mechanisms of polycrystalline diamond compacts (PDC) using two different lasers: (a) a near infrared Nd:YAG laser (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) of 1064 nm wavelength and 100 μs pulse width; and (b) a green light KTP (Potassium Titanyl Phosphate)/Nd:YAG laser of 532 nm wavelength and 120 ns pulse width. To realize the objective, the study applies polishing, lapping and etching processes to the cut-surfaces of the PDC samples. It further observes and analyzes the processed cut-surfaces with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. A discussion is provided to reveal the underlying physics of the laser cutting mechanisms, and a conclusion is drawn based on the outcomes from the experimental investigation and the discussion.
