Abstract

Vacuum hot pressing has been used for the development of titanium metal matrix composites using foil-fiber-foil method. Heterogeneous microstructures prior to and following consolidation have been quantified, and the relations to densification behavior investigated. As shown by the results, dramatic variations of the microstructures including equiaxed $\alpha$, transformed $\beta$ and $ Widmanst\ddot{a}tten$ $\alpha$ are obtained during the process according to the fiber distributions. The dependence of microstructures on the consolidation then has been explained in terms of the change in mechanisms such as grain growth and recrystallization that occur with changing levels of inhomogeneity of deformation. Further, micro-mechanics based constitutive model enabling the evolution of density over time together with the evolutions of microstructure to be predicted has been developed. The mode developed is then implemented into finite element scheme so that practical process simulation has been carried out.

고온진공간압 성형기술 및 포일-섬유-포일 방식을 이용하여 티타늄금속기 복합재료를 개발하였다. 이와 관련하여 강화공정 전후의 비균질 미시조직의 변화를 관측하였으며 공정 진행에 따른 충진거동도 함께 비교분석하였다. 결과에서 알 수 있듯이 강화공정 동안 섬유의 분포 형태에 따라 등축 $\alpha$, transformed $\beta$ 및$ Widmanst\ddot{a}tten$ $\alpha$ 등 상당한 미시조직의 변화가 확인되었다. 공정 진행에 따른 미시조직의 변화는 따라서 변형에 대한 기지재료의 불균일 정도와 관련한 결정립성장 및 재결정과 같은 변형기구들로 설명할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 변형기구 해석을 바탕으로 공정에 따른 기공의 충진 정도와 조직의 변화를 예측하기 위한 미시역학적 구성방정식이 개발되었으며, 또한 유한요소 해석을 통해 실공정 과정을 보다 정밀하게 예측할 수 있었다.
