An Experimental Study on Mechanical Modeling of Ceramics Based on Microstructure

Abstract

Abstract:The actual grinding result of ceramics has not been well predicted by the present mechanical models. No allowance is made for direct effects of materials microstructure and almost all the mechanical models were obtained based on crystalline ceramics. In order to improve the mechanical models of ceramics, surface grinding experiments on crystalline ceramics and non-crystalline ceramics were conducted in this research. The normal and tangential grinding forces were measured to calculate single grit force and specific grinding energy. Grinding surfaces were observed. For crystalline alumina ceramics, the predictive modeling of normal force per grit fits well with the experimental result, when the maximum undeformed chip thickness is less than a critical depth, which turns out to be close to the grain size of alumina. Meanwhile, there is a negative correlation between the specific grinding energy and the maximum undeformed chip thickness. With the decreasing maximum undeformed chip thickness, the proportions of ductile removal and transgranular fracture increase. However, the grinding force models are not applicable for non-crystalline ceramic fused silica and the specific grinding energy fluctuates irregularly as a function of maximum undeformed chip thickness seen from the experiment.

A “Double Accuracy Theory” and Experimental Research on Precision Grinding

“…The established model can guide the tolerance distribution of grinding parts to achieve the purpose of prediction accuracy. The relationship between grinding force and grinding material was proposed in reference [10]. The relationship between the grinding wheel abrasive particle size and grinding parameters in this paper is also reflected.…”

“…e T 11;31 . e T 31;41 (10) Since the calculation formula is too large, simplify the labeling Equation 11respectively. Please refer to the Appendix A for details of calculation.…”

“…Through the following analysis, the main reason for this is the accuracy of tooling and fixture, the size of grinding wheel abrasive particles, and the processing technology. Simultaneously, reviewing reference [4] and reference [10], a clear mapping relationship has been formed. With the precision theory and multi-body system theory put forward in reference [4], 21 parameters are used to model and study the machining geometric precision, thus analyzing the grinding precision.…”

“…Using the program, an automatic system will be generated to readjust the dressing parameters while avoiding stop, reducing cost and improving grinding accuracy. Zhang Ya-Nan et al [10] studied the grinding force and the material of the machined parts and obtained the correlation between the grinding force and the material. At the same time, the exploration of machine tool accuracy has also introduced acoustic emission monitoring technology, and it has become a hot topic in the field of advanced processing.…”

“…Other possible phenomena are of an optical nature, due to the interaction of sunlight or artificial light with the materials [12]. Though these techniques are widely used in the paint, automotive, plastic, textile, and composite industries [13], etc., they need to be further developed in the ceramic sector [14].…”
