Time-dependent 3-D modelling of laser surface heating for the hardening of metallic materials

A numerical code for the time-dependent three-dimensional modelling of the laser surface heating for the hardening of metallic materials has been developed by the authors. The temperature-dependence of the thermal properties of the material (stainless steel) is taken into account in the frame of a heating process that doesnt lead to material melting or evaporation. Calculations have been carried out for various dimensions of the parallelepiped-shaped and of the square-shaped spot of the laser beam, as well as for different scanning velocity and for different levels of the laser source power. Various patterns of the laser spot path have also been studied, including a single-pass hardening pattern, a double-pass hardening pattern with and without overlapping, multiple discontinuous and continuous hardening patterns and spiral hardening patterns. The presented results show how the proposed model can be usefully employed in the prediction of the time-evolution of temperature distribution which arises in the workpiece as a consequence of the laser-workpiece interaction under operating conditions typically encountered in industrial applications of the laser hardening process.Received: 29 July 2003, Published online: 30 September 2003PACS: 42.62.Cf Industrial applications - 44.05. + e Analytical and numerical techniques

Hardening of smooth pulsed laser deposited PMMA films by heating

Smooth poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films without any droplets were pulsed laser deposited at a wavelength of 248 nm and a laser fluence of 125 mJ/cm². After deposition at room temperature, the films possess low universal hardness of only 3 N/mm². Thermal treatments up to 200°C, either during deposition or afterwards, lead to film hardening up to values of 200 N/mm². Using a combination of complementary methods, two main mechanisms could be made responsible for this temperature induced hardening effect well above the glass transition temperature of 102°C. The first process is induced by the evaporation of chain fragments and low molecular mass material, which are present in the film due to the ablation process, leading to an increase of the average molecular mass and thus to hardening. The second mechanism can be seen in partial cross-linking of the polymer film as soon as chain scission occurs at higher temperatures and the mobility and reactivity of the polymer material is high enough.

多谱线He-Ne激光器中棱镜组件的热变形研究

拉曼散射分析通常使用多谱线He-Ne激光器作为光源。通过建立多谱线He-Ne激光器腔内棱镜组件的有限元模型,并进行热变形分析,得到了棱镜组件的热变形位移结果。讨论了在棱镜角度改变时多谱线He-Ne激光器输出谱线的变化情况,通过实验进一步验证了仿真结果的准确性。结果表明:多谱线He-Ne激光器长时间工作会使温度升高,严重影响其腔内棱镜的偏转角度,使得其输出谱线发生一定的漂移。当腔内温度继续升高到一定值时会导致激光器不出光,此时,应当采取散热装置或者温度控制措施。

The influence of stimulated temperature-dependent emission cross section on intracavity optical parametric oscillator

In this paper, the influence of temperature on the intracavity optical parametric oscillator(IOPO) is investigated by using the stimulated temperature-dependent emission cross section of laser crystal. The rate equations under plane wave approximation have been used for simulation of signal output pulse. Results show that the signal output pulse width is decreased by increasing the laser crystal temperature. Also, the signal output energy is increased by the increasing of the laser crystal temperature. The simulation results for IOPO based on Nd:YAG and Nd:YVO_4, show that the signal pulse energies are increased by 3.2 and 5.6 times respectively when the laser crystal temperature increased from 15℃ to 300℃. The presented model indicates that the temperature sensitivity of Nd:YVO_4-based IOPOs is more than that of Nd:YAG-based IOPOs which is expected from a physical point of view.     

Simulation of InGaN violet and ultraviolet multiple-quantum-well laser diodes

Optical properties of the InGaN violet and ultraviolet multiple-quantum-well laser diodes are numerically studied with a self-consistent simulation program. Specifically, the performance of the laser diodes of various active region structures, operating in a spectral range from 385 to 410 nm, are investigated and compared. The simulation results indicate that the double-quantum-well laser structure with a peak emission wavelength of 385–410 nm has the lowest threshold current. The characteristic temperature of the single-quantum-well laser structure increases as the peak emission wavelength increases. The triple-quantum-well structure has the largest characteristic temperature when the peak emission wavelength is shorter than 405 nm, while the double-quantum-well structure possesses the largest characteristic temperature when the peak emission wavelength is larger than 405 nm.     

Atomistic simulation of the stacking fault energy and grain shape on strain hardening behaviours of FCC nanocrystalline metals

ABSTRACT

Ultra-fine grained copper with nanotwins is found to be both strong and ductile. It is expected that nanocrystalline metals with lamella grains will have strain hardening behaviour. The main unsolved issues on strain hardening behaviour of nanocrystalline metals include the effect of stacking fault energy, grain shape, temperature, strain rate, second phase particles, alloy elements, etc. Strain hardening makes strong nanocrystalline metals ductile. The stacking fault energy effects on the strain hardening behaviour are studied by molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the uniaxial tensile deformation of the layer-grained and equiaxed models for metallic materials at 300?K. The results show that the strain hardening is observed during the plastic deformation of the layer-grained models, while strain softening is found in the equiaxed models. The strain hardening index values of the layer-grained models decrease with the decrease of stacking fault energy, which is attributed to the distinct stacking fault width and dislocation density. Forest dislocations are observed in the layer-grained models due to the high dislocation density. The formation of sessile dislocations, such as Lomer–Cottrell dislocation locks and stair-rod dislocations, causes the strain hardening behaviour. The dislocation density in layer-grained models is higher than that in the equiaxed models. Grain morphology affects dislocation density by influencing the dislocation motion distance in grain interior.     

Computer simulation of expansion of a carbon laser plasma after ablation in nitrogen atmosphere

Computer simulation is employed for analyzing the dynamics of plasma expansion in nitrogen under a pressure of 103 and 104 Pa after the action of a nanosecond laser pulse on a graphite plate for obtaining carbonitride nanofilms with the help of laser ablation technology. The binary gas mixture is described using a macroscopic quasi-gasdynamic model taking into account momentum and energy transfer between mixture components. The results of simulation are compared for various initial values of temperature and pressure of the laser jet with the results of direct Monte Carlo simulation and with experimental data. The possibility of controlling the shock wave propagation modes after ablation by varying the initial values of gasdynamic parameters is demonstrated. The effect of nitrogen atmosphere on the propagation of the laser jet is studied.     

Finite element analysis of laser irradiated metal heating and melting processes

Laser technology has shown fast growth due to its demands in material processing and manufacturing. Laser material processing includes various applications like cutting, welding, drilling, cladding and surface treatment. In laser surface treatment, the material properties at the surface are altered through surface alloying and transformation hardening. In this study, an enthalpy-based computational model is developed for analyzing laser heating and melting of metals. The solution to the problem is obtained by using a finite element method and validated by comparing the results with that given by an analytical solution to a limiting case problem. A solution algorithm and a computational code are developed to estimate the temperature distribution, solid-liquid interface location and shape and size of the molten pool. The computational model is validated by comparing results with a limiting case analytical model. The study is conducted to analyze the heating rate, the heat affected zone, and the shape and size of the molten pool using a Gaussian laser beam.

Dynamic simulation on the temperature field of laser micro-patterning metal in the liquid

To further understand the mechanism of laser electrochemical etching metal, it is necessary to describe the temperature field induced by laser heating metal at the liquid–solid interfaces. For solving the complex problem of laser heating a metal immersed in a liquid, the thermal phenomena adjacent to the metal–liquid interface, which was induced by means of irradiating a stainless steel sample immersed in a liquid with an 808 nm semiconductor laser beam, were numerically investigated. Based on a simplified method to solve the transient explosive boiling when a continuous wave (CW) laser heating a material in a liquid, a commercial finite element analysis (FEA) code (ABAQUS) was used to directly solve and model the transient temperature fields of laser micro-patterning metal in a liquid. As known from simulation results, the simulation of laser scanning indicates that it realizes the effect of pulse laser heating owing to laser moving and liquid cooling. Moreover, laser scanning achieves the pattern at a high resolution. At the same time, the experiment phenomena also proved that the simulation results were reasonable.

Microstructure and wear property of carbon nanotube carburizing carbon steel by laser surface remelting

Carbon nanotube was used to carburize the surface of medium carbon steel and mild steel, respectively, by means of laser surface remelting. The slurry of carbon nanotube of ethanol was coated on the surface of the materials prior to laser irradiation. Microstructures, microhardness and wear property of the surface layers treated by different laser performance parameters were studied. Graphite coating was also used for carburizing. The results showed that both carbon nanotube and graphite were dissolved in the surface molten layer, leading a carburized hardening layer on the surface of the substrate. However, different microstructures formed in the carburizing layers, depending mainly on the type of carburization materials, carbon nanotube or graphite. The carbon nanotube hardening layer exhibits a little higher hardness than the graphite hardening layer. The carburized layer greatly increases the wear resistance of the base material.
