Publication Open Access Experimental and FEM analysis of wear behaviour in AA5083 ultrafine-grained cams(MDPI, 2020) Luis Pérez, Carmelo; Luri Irigoyen, Rodrigo; Fuertes Bonel, Juan Pablo; León Iriarte, Javier; Salcedo Pérez, Daniel; Puertas Arbizu, Ignacio; Ingeniería; IngeniaritzaSevere plastic deformation (SPD) processes have attracted a great deal of both scientific and technological interest over the last few years as a consequence of the improvements that are possible to obtain in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the materials manufactured through the use of these kind of processes. However, the practical applications of such materials to obtain mechanical components are significantly fewer. As a direct consequence, the same thing has been observed in the development of studies that show the in-service behaviour of the mechanical components developed in this way. Since one of the industrial objectives of these SPD processes is to obtain functional parts, it is necessary to carry out studies to fill this gap. Therefore, in this study, an analysis of the wear that cams undergo when manufactured from an AA5083 aluminium-magnesium alloy is carried out. The cams were isothermally-forged from materials with and without previous SPD processing by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). Subsequently, the wear behaviour of these cams was analysed by using specific equipment, which may have been considered to have a block-on-ring configuration, developed for testing in-service wear behaviour of mechanical parts. From this comparative wear study with cams, it is shown that previously-processed materials by ECAP have a better wear performance. Moreover, finite element modelling (FEM) simulations were also included to predict wear in the cams processed in this way. A good agreement between FEM and experimental results was obtained. It is this aspect of performing the wear tests on functional and real mechanical components, and not on laboratory samples, which makes this present research work novel.Publication Open Access Analysis of tribological properties in disks of AA-5754 and AA-5083 aluminium alloys previously processed by equal channel angular pressing and isothermally forged(MDPI, 2020) Luis Pérez, Carmelo; Luri Irigoyen, Rodrigo; Puertas Arbizu, Ignacio; Salcedo Pérez, Daniel; León Iriarte, Javier; Fuertes Bonel, Juan Pablo; Ingeniería; IngeniaritzaIn the present study, the wear behaviour of two aluminium alloys (AA‐5754 and AA‐5083) is analysed where these have been previously processed by severe plastic deformation (SPD) with equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). In order to achieve the objectives of this study, several disks made of these alloys are manufactured by isothermal forging from different initial states. The microstructures of the initial materials analysed in this study have different accumulated deformation levels. In order to compare the properties of the nanostructured materials with those which have not been ECAP‐processed, several disks with a height of 6 mm and a diameter of 35 mm are manufactured from both aluminium alloys (that is, AA‐5754 and AA‐5083) isothermally forged at temperatures of 150 and 200 °C, respectively. These thus‐manufactured disks are tested under a load of 0.6 kN, which is equivalent to a stress mean value of 18 MPa, and at a rotational speed of 200 rpm. In order to determine the wear values, the disks are weighed at the beginning, at 10,000 revolutions, at 50,000 revolutions and at 100,000 revolutions, and then the volume‐loss values are calculated. This study was carried out using specific equipment, which may be considered to have a block‐on‐ring configuration, developed for testing in‐service wear behaviour of mechanical components. From this, the wear coefficients for the two materials at different initial states are obtained. In addition, a comparison is made between the behaviour of the previously ECAP-processed aluminium alloys and those that are non‐ECAP‐processed. A methodology is proposed to determine wear coefficients for the aluminium alloys under consideration, which may be used to predict the wear behaviour. It is demonstrated that AA‐5754 and AA‐5083 aluminium alloys improve wear behaviour after the ECAP process compared to that obtained in non‐ECAP‐processed materials.Publication Open Access Analysis of fatigue and wear behaviour in ultrafine grained connecting rods(MDPI, 2017) Luri Irigoyen, Rodrigo; Luis Pérez, Carmelo; León Iriarte, Javier; Fuertes Bonel, Juan Pablo; Salcedo Pérez, Daniel; Puertas Arbizu, Ignacio; Ingeniería Mecánica, Energética y de Materiales; Mekanika, Energetika eta Materialen IngeniaritzaOver the last few years there has been an increasing interest in the study and development of processes that make it possible to obtain ultra-fine grained materials. Although there exists a large number of published works related to the improvement of the mechanical properties in these materials, there are only a few studies that analyse their in-service behaviour (fatigue and wear). In order to bridge the gap, in this present work, the fatigue and wear results obtained for connecting rods manufactured by using two different aluminium alloys (AA5754 and AA5083) previously deformed by severe plastic deformation (SPD), using Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP), in order to obtain the ultrafine grain size in the processed materials are shown. For both aluminium alloys, two initial states were studied: annealed and ECAPed. The connecting rods were manufactured from the previously processed materials by using isothermal forging. Fatigue and wear experiments were carried out in order to characterize the in-service behaviour of the components. A comparative study of the results was made for both initial states of the materials. Furthermore, Finite Element Modelling (FEM) simulations were used in order to compare experimental results with those obtained from simulations. In addition, dimensional wear coefficients were found for each of the aluminium alloys and initial deformation states. This research work aims to progress the knowledge of the behaviour of components manufactured from ultrafine grain materials.
