Abstract: | A practical theory for swaging bored holes within plates and cylinders is proposed which can take into account work-hardening
in the presence of small plastic strains based upon equivalent stress-strain data. With the appropriate choice of yield function,
this theory applies to the swaging of both thin and thick plates under respective plane stress and plane strain conditions.
The theory can be adapted further to the autofrettage of open and closed-ended, thick-walled cylinders where similar plane
deformations conditions apply. Here swaging refers to the practice in which an oversized plug or sphere is forced into the
bore thereby expanding it permanently to leave a residual circumferential compression in the bore material upon removal of
the expanding tool. A similar effect results from applying an initial over-pressure to a long thick-walled cylinder in an
autofrettage process. Both treatments are employed to enhance the fatigue resistance when the service loading upon the disc
or cylinder amounts to a cyclic, circumferential tension within its bore. Strain gauges bonded to the entry face of the plate
are used to monitor the circumferential and radial strain distributions both during and after the swaging process. Experimental
results presented for swaging of thin and thin annular discs in aluminium alloy show that the measured residual strain distributions
concord with the theory for large discs with a 10/1 diameter ratio. The agreement is less satisfactory with the loss in axial
symmetry for parallel-sided lugs with a width to hole diameter ratio of 4/1. |
