ABSTRACT Metal cutting is the most important process amongst all the manufacturing processes as it produces the metal components very close to the desired surface integrity and size. Modern usage of edge prepared cutting tools motivates to study the depth of plastic deformation under machined surface. Study of various edge prepared tool is similar to a tool with a flank wear land. When the tool gets worn it develops a plastic zone below the surface to a certain depth during machining. In this plastically affected zone grain of the metal slightly elongate in the direction of machining which distinguish it from rest of the sub surface area. The nature and depth of this plastically affected zone are expected to be depends on fundamental machining parameters, extent of tool wear and materials of work. To experimentally investigate depth of plastically affected zone as well as to study the parameters influencing it can be accomplished by studying the micro photographs of the subsurface zone. The study of micro photographs also enables us to determine strain induced in that zone by studying the amount of elongation of grains. This can be accomplished by conducting machining experiments on shaping machine using Mild steel and HSS tool. Worn tools required for conducting the experiments may be induced by appropriately developing an artificially induced flank wear land in the HSS tools. An attempt is made to simulate the machining with different flank wear land inclination. The deformation of microstructure clearly indicates the depth of plastic deformation increases with the increase in flank wear land inclination. Similar trend is found with the simulation of machining process with DEFORMA-2D.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 General Background and motivation High speed turning technology is growing rapidly in the recent years especially in area of manufacturing, aerospace, and defense and missile components. The behavior of work metal changes with the change in cutting speed. The transition of chips from continuous to shear localized is also dependent on machining speed. The range of the high speed machining aluminum components is about 500- 1000 m/min. One of the major benefits of cutting at higher speed is the reduction of cutting forces leading to improvement in surface integrity in terms of lower cutting force magnitude, fine surface finish, and lower depth of deformation in machined surface. Surface integrity of the machined component (the nature of surface condition of a work piece after machining process) is a critical parameter in deciding the component performance, reliability and service life. Surface integrity of the machined component (the nature of surface condition of a work piece after machining process) is a critical parameter in deciding the component performance, reliability and service life. There are two aspects to surface integrity i.e. Surface topography characteristics Surface layer characteristics. The surface topography comprises of surface roughness, waviness, from errors, and flaws. Work material below the machined surface is highly influenced by machining parameters (speed, depth of cut).

1.2 PLASTIC DEFORMATION In materials science, plasticity describes the deformation of a material undergoing non-reversible changes of shape in response to applied forces. Plastic deformation is observed in most materials including metals, soils, rocks, concrete, foams, bone and skin. However, the physical mechanisms that cause plastic deformation can vary widely. At the crystal scale, plasticity in metals is usually a consequence of dislocations. In most crystalline materials such defects are relatively rare. But there are also materials where defects are numerous and are part of the very crystal structure, in such cases plastic crystallinity can result. In brittle materials such as rock, concrete, and bone, plasticity is caused predominantly by slip at micro cracks.

CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE SURVEY 2.1 Effect of flank wear The effect of flank wear on the topography of machined surfaces is investigated by studying its effect on the shape of the tool nose. For this purpose, turning experiments were performed to produce surfaces corresponding to different levels of flank wear. The distribution of flank wear at the tool nose during these experiments caused the nose radius to decrease, which when replicated on the machined surface resulted in narrower and deeper feed marks. This change in the geometry of feed marks was represented by the increase in the arithmetic average roughness of the surface profile heights [5]. Journal of material shaping technology, page no 255-265.

2.2 Effect of cutting speed: In this study, an attempt has been conducted to investigate the effects of cutting parameters on tool wear and surface roughness during hard turning of Inconel material. The experimental results have revealed that the cutting speed is the most significant effect to the flank wear; whereas the surface roughness is strongly influenced by the feed rate and slight related to the tool wear mechanisms. Due to the high pressure at elevated temperature, a micro-welding and built-up-edge are formed even at relatively low cutting speeds of 30-45m/min; it is a disadvantage for the machined surface quality. Particular, the surface roughness tends to decreased with the increased of the cutting speed when the built-up-edge was disappeared. However, the tool wear increased rapidly when the cutting speed increased over 90 m/min. This phenomenon is therefore inevitable affected to the tool life and the machined surface quality [3].
2.3 Influence of parameters on microstructure: Microstructure and material flow of aluminium alloys have a significant influence on the mechanical properties and surface quality. A prediction of grain size and precipitation is of increasing importance in order to design the process by adjustment of parameters such as speed, temperatures, and quenching. To give references for microstructure prediction based on material flow, and with it strain and strain rate history, this paper deals with the microstructure during the extrusion process of AA6060, AA6082, and AA7075 alloys. Billets have been partly extruded to axisymmetric round profiles and the microstructure of the press rests consisting of the billet rests in container and die has been considered. Furthermore, these rests have been analyzed to show the material flow, dynamic and static recrystallization based on macro etchings and visible microstructure under different conditions, e.g. as in the area of high strain rate near the container wall, or in dead zones. To allow an accurate simulation of the extrusion process, punch force and temperature conditions during the tests have been measured. [1].

2.4 Influence of parameters on surface integrity: The paper presents surface integrity analysis in high speed machined titanium alloy. The experiments were conducted in dry environment. Response surface method based CCD was used to analyse the effect of machining parameters on surface roughness, degree of work hardening and the induced residual stresses after machining. The analysis of results shows a micro deformation layer up to a depth of 200 m influencing the micro hardness and residual stresses. The degree of work hardening in this layer is found to influence by the machining conditions up to a depth of 100 m, beneath the machined surface. Predominant thermal softening effect at higher cutting speed causes the restructuring of the micro deformation layer. Thus the machined surface shows less alterations and correspondingly lower surface roughness. Higher cutting speed also favours induction of higher compressive residual stresses [2]. 2.5 Influence of cutting parameters on plastic deformation: Because plastic deformation is a nuisance in the metal cutting process, its proper account is of high interest. A new meaning for the chip compression ratio is discussed showing that, on the contrary to shear strain, this parameter represents the true plastic deformation in metal cutting. The chip compression ratio can be used to calculate the total work done by the external force applied to the tool and then might be used for optimization of the cutting process. It is demonstrated that the cutting speed influences the energy spent on the deformation of the chip through temperature, dimensions of the deformation zone adjacent to the cutting edge and velocity of deformation. The separate impacts of these factors have been analyzed and the physical background behind the known experimental dependence of the chip compression ratio on the cutting speed is revealed. The influence of the cutting feed, tool cutting edge angle, cutting edge inclination angle and tool rake angle also have been analysed. A R Rodrigues et.al studied the effect of milling conditions on the surface integrity of steels. Cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut were related to microstructure of the work piece beneath machined surface the microstructure shows the deformation of microstructure were observed in work piece subsurface as shown in figure[4].

To study the influence of machining parameters on sub-surface layer. 3. To study the change in the shape of the grains structure. 4. To study the depth of plastically affected zone due to tool flank wear land. 5. Finite element method is used to study the strain deformation in the work material using DEFORMED 2D machining software. METHODOLOGY The plastic deformation beneath the flank wear land is estimated by observing the deformation of microstructure of the material. For this HSS cutting tool with artificially created wear land .This wear land makes an inclination with cutting direction as suggested by N S Das and S T Dundur as shown in Figure 3.1. In the present study 2 degree and 4 degree inclination is considered. The mild steel work piece are shaped by using the above mentioned tool, and is polished by emery paper and wet circular disc for the metallography observation.

4.1 Design Of Experiments (DOE) Design of experiment (DOE) is a structured, organized method that is used to determine the relationship between the different input parameters (X) affecting a process DETERMINATION OF DEPTH OF PLASTIC DEFORMATION ON MACHINED SURFACE
DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND PRODUCTION ENGINEERING Page 12
and the out put parameters of that process (Y). This method was first developed in the 1920s and 1930s by sir Ronald.A.Fisher, the renowned mathematician and geneticist. Design of experiment involves designing a set of experiments, in which all relevant factors are varied systematically. When the results of these experiments are analysed, they help to identify optimal conditions, the factors that are more influential on the results and those that are not, as well as details such as the existence of interactions and synergies between the factors. Statistical design of experiments refers to the process of planning the experiment so that appropriate data that can be collected and analysed by statistical methods resulting in valid and objective conclusions. The statistical approach to experimental design is necessary to get meaningful conclusions from the data. Thus, there are two aspects to any experimental problem: the design of experiment and the statistical analysis of the data. These two subjects are closely related because the method of analysis depends directly on the design employed . 4.1.1 The Objectives Of Design Of Experiments In general, experiments are used to study the performance of processes and systems. A model shown in the figure can represent the process or system. We can visualize the process as a combination of the machines, methods, people, and other resources that transform some input into an output that has one or more observable responses. Some of the process variables x 1 , x 2 , .., x p are controllable, whereas other variables z 1 , z 2 , .., z q
are uncontrollable.

CHAPTER 5 FINITE ELEMENT METHOD
5. Introduction To Finite Element Method Finite element analysis is preferred than the laborious experimental work in order to save time and cost. Researchers have found that the results obtained from finite element analysis stays close to the experimental results. Hence finite element analysis is preferred in this work. Development of the Finite Element Method (FEM) in early 1970s DETERMINATION OF DEPTH OF PLASTIC DEFORMATION ON MACHINED SURFACE
DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND PRODUCTION ENGINEERING Page 18
first pioneered simulations of orthogonal machining process. First research work used as self-developed finite element code. From 1990s massive use of commercial software starts, which is capable of modelling the machining process, as a NIKE2, ABAQUS/Standard, MARC, DEFORM 2D, FORGE 2D, ALGOR, FLUENT, ABAQUS/ Explicit, LS DYNA. Deform is an engineering simulation software used by designers to analyze metal forming, machining and heat treatment processes by trial and error method. DEFORM-2D is based on an updated Lagrangian formulation that employs implicit integration method designed for large deformation simulations, is used to simulate the cutting process. The strength of the FEM software is its ability to automatically remesh and generate a very dense grid of nodes near the tool tip so that large gradients of strain, strain-rate and temperature can be handled. Deform is effective in wide range of research and industrial applications due to its effectiveness. 5.1 Introduction To Deform 2d Deform 2D is a software code used widely for finite element analysis in metal forming operations which involves deformations and heat transfer. The FE tool is capable of converting large scale problems in magnitude and complexity into solvable 2D problems. The domain is divided into nodes and elements which store the values calculated at various time intervals during the simulation process. The large non-steady state calculations are reduced to smaller steady state equations and solved one step at a time over the course of the simulation. Figure 4.1 shows the structure in Deform 2D.

5.2 Pre-Processor In Deform 2D The pre-processor uses a graphical user interface to assemble the data required to run the simulation. The orthogonal cutting process is modelled as a plane strain problem which assumes the geometry to have a unit depth with both front and back faces constrained. The simulation assumes that the objects will behave identically in any given cross-section across the width and height of the object. The instructions on conditions of the processing environment, physical processes to be modelled, discrete time steps are called simulation data input. Metal cutting process involves heat transfer and deformations. The heat transfer module simulates thermal effects in the simulation, including heat transfer between objects and the environment, and heat generation due to deformation or phase transformation, wherever it is applicable. The deformation module simulates deformation due to mechanical, thermal, or phase transformation effects. The materials are imported from the material database or created manually by defining the flow stress value. The geometry of plastic, elastic and finite element mesh of linear quadrilateral elements represents non- isothermal rigid objects.
5.3 Meshing In Deform 2D Finite element meshes are created within the Deform environment using the automatic mesh generator. The object border geometry is defined before creating a FE mesh. Mesh density refers to the relative sizes of the elements, which will be generated within an object boundary. The mesh density is primarily based on the specified total number of elements and point or parameter density controls. When the mesh is generated, it will contain approximately the number of elements specified by the user. Mesh density is specified by either assigning relative densities to graphically selected points within the object boundary (user defined mesh density), or by assigning values to a set of automatic mesh density parameters (system defined mesh density). The mesh is generated by the Automatic mesh generator which determines the need for remeshing and determines the optimum mesh density based on the geometric shape and prior solution behaviour. It constructs the mesh based on the optimum mesh density and transfers information including boundary conditions from the old mesh to the new one. 5.4 Simulation In Deform 2D To perform a simulation, a database containing the process data and simulation controls is prepared. The database is created using the above pre-processor inputs. The control, DETERMINATION OF DEPTH OF PLASTIC DEFORMATION ON MACHINED SURFACE
DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND PRODUCTION ENGINEERING Page 20
material, object and inter-object options of the pre-processor allow for interactive input of the simulation parameters. The specified database is executed as simulation steps are generated. The output is written back into the database file. The basic equation of equilibrium, constitutive relationship and boundary conditions are converted to non-linear algebraic equations. All the input and output data are stored in binary form and are accessed through the post processor. The results of the simulation are displayed in graphical and alphanumeric form. It is important to note that this module only reads the results of the database file and no modifications can be executed here.
5.5 FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING Assumptions Of The FE Model The finite element model in metal cutting requires a number ofassumptions in defining the problem which are as follows 1. The tool is rigid. 2. The chip is a continuous ribbon for ductile materials. 3. The cutting velocity is normal to the cutting edge. 4. The work material is isotropic. 5. The work material is at room temperature. 6. The cutting is performed with no coolants. The chip formation occurs due to natural flow around the tool tip where the material splits in to two parts: one flowing parallel to tool rake face (chip) and other flowing under the tool flank face (machined surface). The automatic remeshing capability helps to create new mesh, whenever the current mesh gets distorted. Explicit control parameters such as element size and distribution, element geometric shape and order, creation of nodes on boundaries vertices, and the node numbering sequence of elements are assumed by the software itself. The generated nodes match the geometry and the distributions of nodes are evenly spaced on curves and surfaces regardless of the parametric distortion of the surface. Input Requirements for the FE Model is shown in the following diagram DETERMINATION OF DEPTH OF PLASTIC DEFORMATION ON MACHINED SURFACE

etc can be observed.
5.7 Results and Discussion The tool with different flank wear land inclinations (0, 2 , 3 ,6 ) are used for simulation. Initially the flank wear land is kept parallel to cutting direction and strain effective is determined. The Figure 5.3(a) shows the geometry of the tool is where in flank wear land is parallel to cutting direction. Figure 5.3(b) shows the variation of strain in work material and the maximum effective strain deformation found to be 2.15. The effect of deformation is found to be 0.053452 mm. The Figure 5.4 (a) and 5.4(b) shows that flank inclination is 2 with respect to cutting direction. The maximum effective strain found to be is 2.87, which is higher value then the found when its angle was zero. The Figure 5.5(a) shows that flank wear land inclination value is 3 and figure 5.5 (b) shows the maximum effective strain deformation is 3.35.In Figure 5.6 (a) the flank wear land inclination is 6 and Figure 5.6(b) shows the maximum effective strain deformation is 5.94.From the above simulation results trial we found that the effective strain value increases as the flank wear land inclination increases. The presence of flank wear land on the tool effects on the friction conditions prevailing at the inter face of tool and work piece. The change in friction condition generates more at the inter face. The rise in the temperature of the work material allows the more deformation to takes place below the flank wear land. Because of this the depth of plastic deformation below the flank wear land increase with the increase in the flank wear land inclination.

CHAPTER 6 CONCLUSION Orthogonal machining experiments are conducted successfully as per the half factorial matrix of design of experiments. The various flank land inclination are used to study effect on plastic deformation. The deformation of microstructure clearly indicates the flank wear land inclination effects on plastic deformation of work under flank wear land. As inclination increased the depth of plastic deformation also increases. Similarly trend is also observed with the simulation conducted by DEFORM-2D. 6.1 Future Scope 1. The minute deformation can be visible if SEM techniques are used. 2. By conducting full factorial or response method can give accuracy results. 3. The effects of other parameters as temperature, strain rate, stress, pressure will affects the plastic deformation too.
