AME 54542 - Metalworking Processes

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Aerospace and Mechanical Engr.

Description:

This unit introduces the fundamentals of engineering alloys, fabrication, basic industrial metalworking processes and metrology. Topics include (1) engineering metallic materials, i.e. carbon and alloy steels, cast irons and nonferrous alloys; industrial fabrication of these materials, including welding, heat treatment, quality control and non-destructive testing; (2) basic metalworking processes (such as rolling, forging, presswork, extrusion and metal cutting); (3) theory of plasticity in metal forming including physical mechanisms of plastic deformation and constitutive modelling; homogeneous deformation, allowance for frictional constraint; (4) slip-line field theory, Hencky stress equations, Geringer velocity equations, velocity discontinuities; and (5) metal cutting theories and fundamentals of metrology, (surface topography characterisation, surface roughness, surface roundness).
