Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of composite material cutting simulation, and particularly relates to a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin-based composite material profile milling simulation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin-based composite materials (hereinafter referred to as "thermoplastic composite materials") have been widely used in the fields of aerospace, automobile manufacturing, high-end sports products and the like due to their outstanding characteristics such as excellent specific strength, specific stiffness, impact resistance, corrosion resistance and excellent recyclability. However, in the actual profile milling process of the thermoplastic composite material, due to its unique material properties, including high temperature sensitivity, easy high-temperature phase transition and strong plastic deformation ability, defects such as unstable machining quality, poor surface quality, burrs and delamination are prone to occur in the milling process, which seriously affects the machining quality and actual application of the composite material component. Finite element simulation is an effective method for simulating the material cutting process and machining damage, which is helpful to clarify the material removal mechanism and milling damage formation mechanism in the milling process.

[0003] In recent years, there have been some achievements in the simulation research of thermoplastic composite milling. For example, the research results published in international authoritative journals such as Composite Structures, Journal of Materials Processing Technology, etc. in recent years show that the existing simulation methods are mostly developed for the milling of thermosetting resin-based composites or general metal materials. The simulation model usually ignores the high temperature phase change of thermoplastic composites and the high sensitivity of the material to temperature, resulting in a large deviation between the simulation prediction results and the actual processing effect. For example, in the paper titled "Temperature-dependent cutting physics in orthogonal cutting of carbon fibre reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) composite" published by Jia Ge et al. in Composites Part A, Vol. 176, 2024, a thermal-mechanical coupled finite element model of thermoplastic composite is proposed, but the specific geometric and dynamic conditions of profile milling are not fully considered. In addition, although the paper titled "Composite light ropes model-based dynamics force prediction model of high speed dry milling UD-CF / PEEK considering size effect" published by Yang Song et al. in Journal of Manufacturing Processes, Vol. 76, 210-222, 2022, proposes a mechanical model suitable for thermoplastic composite milling, the consideration of the profile milling process characteristics is still insufficient.

[0004] Therefore, there is still an urgent need to develop a high-precision simulation method that can fully consider the profile milling process characteristics and the special material characteristics of thermoplastic composites, so as to effectively guide the actual processing technology, optimize the processing parameters, and improve the processing quality of composite parts.

[0036] The specific embodiments of the application will be further described below in combination with the drawings and technical solutions.

[0037] A carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin matrix composite profile milling simulation method not only considers the characteristics of composite profile milling process, but also considers the characteristics of thermoplastic composite multi-heat source cutting heat generation, anisotropic heat conduction and temperature-dependent anisotropic elastic-plastic constitutive model, and can effectively predict the cutting force, temperature distribution and material failure of thermoplastic composite in the profile milling process.

[0038] The specific steps are as follows:

[0039] Step 1: Establish a three-dimensional finite element simulation model of thermoplastic composite profile milling;

[0040] A three-dimensional modeling software is used to establish a three-dimensional finite element simulation model of thermoplastic composite profile milling, which includes a thermoplastic composite constitutive model, a thermoplastic composite multi-heat source cutting heat generation and anisotropic heat conduction process, a thermoplastic composite failure criterion and damage evolution process, tool geometry parameters, milling path and milling parameters, and boundary conditions are applied. Among them,

[0041] The unidirectional thermoplastic composite plate is selected for the research, and the material is CF / PEEK, the carbon fiber model is T700, the PEEK brand is 450G, and the fiber volume fraction is 60%. The four-blade ball milling cutter is selected, and the cutter core thickness is 6mm.

[0042] The tool geometry parameters include tool diameter, tool rake angle and tool relief angle, the tool diameter is 10mm, the tool rake angle is 6°, and the tool relief angle is 12°;

[0043] The milling path includes machining track and feeding mode, the machining track is selected as Z-shaped track, and the feeding mode is down milling;

[0044] The milling parameters include rotating speed, feeding speed and cutting depth, the rotating speed is 3000r / min, the feeding speed is 100mm / min, and the cutting depth is 2mm;

[0045] The boundary conditions include fixed support, constraint and clamping conditions: the upper and lower clamping method is adopted to fix the thermoplastic composite workpiece in the embodiment, the upper and lower surfaces, left and right side surfaces and the non-cutting area part behind are fixed and constrained, and the six-direction freedom degrees of the thermoplastic composite workpiece are limited.

[0046] Second step: define the temperature-dependent anisotropic elastoplastic constitutive model of thermoplastic composite;

[0047] Thermoplastic composite is a typical anisotropic material, and the performance difference between the fiber axial direction and the vertical fiber axial direction is large. Taking CF / PEEK as an example, research shows that the fiber axial direction is linearly elastic, and the vertical fiber axial direction is typically elastoplastic. In order to truly and effectively simulate the stress-strain relationship of thermoplastic composite in the cutting process, a three-dimensional elastoplastic temperature-dependent constitutive model is established. The constitutive model is linearly elastic along the fiber direction and elastoplastic perpendicular to the fiber direction. In addition, a temperature influence factor is added to the constitutive model to reflect the influence of temperature on the stress-strain relationship of thermoplastic composite.

[0048] For orthotropic anisotropic materials, the unit stiffness matrix is:

[0049]

[0050] In the formula,

[0051]

[0052] In the formula, 1 direction is along the fiber direction, which is considered as linearly elastic; 2 direction is perpendicular to the fiber direction, and 3 direction is the thickness direction of the layer, both 2 and 3 directions are considered as elastoplastic. C ij The unit stiffness matrix of the thermoplastic composite is C 11 , C22 , C 33 , C 12 , C 13 , C 23 ; E 11 , E 22 , E 33 , E 12 , E 13 , E 23 are the elastic moduli in six directions respectively; v 11 , v 22 , v 33 , v 12 , v 13 , v 23 are the Poisson's ratios in six directions respectively; G 12 , G 13 , G 23 are the shear moduli in three directions respectively; Δ is an intermediate variable.

[0053] The composite material is orthotropic as a whole. Then the three-dimensional plastic potential function can be expressed as:

[0054]

[0055] where a66 is a coefficient representing anisotropic plasticity, and a66 = 2. σ 11 , σ 22 , σ 33 , σ 12 , σ 13 , σ 23 are stress components respectively. Then the three-dimensional equivalent stress can be expressed as:

[0056]

[0057] The plastic strain increment is:

[0058]

[0059] where dλ is a proportional coefficient, and its expression is:

[0060]

[0061]

[0062] The plastic strain increment is:

[0063]

[0064] wherein, is the engineering plastic shear strain.

[0065] The relationship between the equivalent plastic strain and the equivalent stress is:

[0066]

[0067] wherein, A is a parameter related to temperature, and its expression is:

[0068]

[0069] wherein, T is temperature, in ℃.

[0070] Step 3: define the multi-heat source cutting heat generation and anisotropic heat transfer process of the thermoplastic composite material;

[0071] The multi-heat source cutting heat generation of the thermoplastic composite material has three sources, including anisotropic plastic deformation heat, chip and rake face friction heat, and relief face and machined surface friction heat; the heat of the three heat sources needs to be solved respectively;

[0072] (1) Anisotropic plastic deformation heat: since the stress-strain relationship of the thermoplastic composite material in each direction is different, when solving the anisotropic plastic deformation heat, the deviatoric stress tensor and the equivalent plastic strain increment are used to solve the plastic deformation energy in six directions respectively, the total plastic deformation energy is obtained by superposition, and the conversion rate of the total plastic deformation energy to the plastic deformation heat is set, and finally the anisotropic plastic deformation heat is obtained, as shown in the following formula:

[0073]

[0074] (2) Rake face and chip friction heat: continuous long chips are generated during the cutting of the thermoplastic composite material, and the continuous friction between the chips and the rake face generates friction heat; when solving the rake face and chip friction heat, the friction heat source between the rake face and the chip is a rectangular heat source located on the rake face, the heat flux density on the unit contact area between the rake face and the chip per unit time is calculated according to the contact pressure between the rake face and the chip, and then the contact area between the rake face and the chip is multiplied, so as to obtain the friction heat between the rake face and the chip per unit time, as shown in the following formula:

[0075]

[0076] (3) Friction heat between the flank face and the machined surface: the machined surface after springback is prone to continuous friction with the flank face to generate friction heat; in solving the friction heat between the flank face and the machined surface, the friction heat source between the flank face and the machined surface is a moving rectangular heat source on the flank face, the heat flux density on the unit contact area between the flank face and the machined surface per unit time is calculated according to the contact pressure between the flank face and the machined surface, and then multiplied by the contact area between the flank face and the machined surface, so as to obtain the friction heat between the flank face and the machined surface per unit time, as shown in the following formula:

[0077]

[0078] (4) Anisotropic heat transfer process: the thermal conductivity of the thermoplastic composite is also anisotropic, and the anisotropic thermal conductivity is set when solving the cutting heat transfer process; in addition, the heat convection heat transfer coefficient between the thermoplastic composite and the tool and the environment also needs to be set.

[0079] When the thermoplastic composite is cut, the materials at different positions from the tool tip have different deformation behaviors due to different cutting forces, and the cutting heat production is naturally different, which is difficult to directly calculate. The present embodiment adopts a "single-point solution-whole superposition" heat transfer calculation method for the problem that the heat production at different positions in cutting is different and cannot be simply calculated. That is, the temperature field under the action of each point heat source can be solved first, and then the temperature fields of all point heat sources are superposed to obtain the temperature field in the whole cutting process. The Jaeger heat source model is often used to solve this problem, and the heat transfer formula is as follows:

[0080]

[0081] The initial temperature condition is as follows:

[0082]

[0083] The heat flow boundary condition is as follows:

[0084]

[0085] In the formula, k1, k2 and k3 are the thermal conductivities of the thermoplastic composite along the x-axis, y-axis and z-axis directions respectively; g(x, y, z, t) is a heat source term in the model, which represents the three-dimensional coordinates of the heat source and its change with time; p and c represent the density and specific heat capacity of the thermoplastic composite respectively, T0 is the initial temperature of the model, q instant represents the heat flow size of the point heat source at this moment; is the moving speed of the heat source;

[0086] At the initial time t=0, suppose that a point heat source appears at (x', y', z') and disappears instantaneously, then the heat transfer process of the heat source in the model can be calculated by the solving method of the transient point heat source anisotropic temperature field in the Jaeger model, as follows:

[0087]

[0088] The temperature field of the entire workpiece can be expressed as follows:

[0089]

[0090] In the formula, a, b and c are three-dimensional dimensions of the workpiece, respectively.

[0091] Fourth step: defining the failure criterion and damage evolution criterion of the thermoplastic composite material;

[0092] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional Hashin criterion is used as the failure initiation criterion of the thermoplastic composite material, as shown in the following formula:

[0093]

[0094] The linear damage evolution criterion is used to describe the damage evolution process, as shown in the following formula:

[0095]

[0096] Fifth step: simulation calculation and verification combined with experimental data;

[0097] Taking the commonly used commercial analysis software ABAQUS (version 6.16) as an example, according to the derivation of the above first to fourth steps, the VUMAT user subroutine for ABAQUS / EXPLICT is written and input into the simulation software. The three-dimensional finite element model of the thermoplastic composite material surface milling is established as shown in the following formula: Figure 1 The method proposed in the application is used for calculation, and the average value of the main cutting force is used as an index to compare the simulation calculation accuracy. The model setting and material properties are shown in Tables 1 and 2, respectively, and other settings are described in detail in the literature Elliptic vibration-assisted cutting of fibre-reinforced polymer composites: Understanding the material removal mechanisms. The accuracy comparison result is shown in the following formula: Figure 2
