  2. Agenda • Introduction to Silicon Carbide (SiC) • Need for SiC / Applications • Background of HPPT Research • Background of ceramic simulations • 2-D orthogonal machining simulations • Simulations of edge turning • Simulation of plunge cutting • Simulations of fly-cutting • 3-D scratching simulations • Silicon • Silicon Carbide • Summary of results • Conclusions and future work

  3. Silicon Carbide – Advanced Engineering Ceramic • Types of SiC • Properties and applications of SiC • Problems in manufacturing

  4. Research background – HPPT of ceramics • Define HPPT • HPPT or amorphization of ceramics is responsible for the ductile behavior of these brittle materials. • HPPT has been identified in Si and Ge, and other materials. • Ductile material removal has been achieved in SiC under nanometer cutting conditions and phase transformation of chips has been recorded. • Some factors contributing to ductile material removal at room temperature • machining depth < tc • negative rake angle tools with small clearance • sharp edge radius

  5. Developments in simulations of ceramic machining • Introduce AdvantEdge • Developments in AdvantEdge • 2-D simulations of Silicon Nitride in the nanometer regime • 2-D simulations of Silicon Nitride using DP model • Newly developed 3-D scratching simulation capability • Other developments outside AdvantEdge • FEA simulation of polycrystalline alpha-SiC • MD simulations of nanoindentation in SiC

  6. 2-D orthogonal machining simulations of SiC • Three types of experiments were simulated • Edge turning of SiC • Plunge cutting of SiC • Fly-cutting of SiC Visualization of 3-D turning operation in 2-D

  8. Material model for simulations of SiC The DP yield criterion is given by κ is given by Here, σt = H/2.2 and σc = H For H=26 GPa, κ becomes 16.25 GPa. J2 is given by For a uniaxial state of stress Thus J2 is given by This gives κ of 16.25 GPa and α of -0.375 .

  36. Summary of results • Summary of 2-D orthogonal machining simulations • Simulations agree with experiments for depths close to 100 nm and below. • Pressures at the tool-workpiece interface are greater than the hardness of the material for these depths. • Workpiece deflection leads to actual depth being smaller than the programmed depth. • Summary of 3-D scratching simulations • SiC simulations show thrust forces in good agreement with the experiment. • SiC simulations show cutting forces that are not in very good agreement with the experiment.

  37. Conclusions • Two types of simulations have been presented: 2-D & 3-D • 2-D orthogonal simulations of SiC produce useful results for depths at or below the DBT depth of the material. • 2-D simulations create pressures at the tool-workpiece interface that are in agreement with what is expected from the experiments. • 3-D scratching work shows encouraging results for initial attempts at simulations of ceramic materials for depths below the DBT depth of the materials.

  38. Future work • Validation of material models. • Development of analytical model to predict actual depth of cut for a programmed depth of cut for each material • Predicting behavior of ceramic materials under the brittle mode. • 2-D flycutting simulation using VAM. • 3-D turning simulations using round nose cutting tools.
