Abstract
In this paper, the influence of tube extrusion shear (TES) and ordinary extrusion processes on the multiple-physical fields, microstructure, and bonding layer of Mg/Al bimetallic composite tubes at different preheating temperatures were investigated. Based on the characteristics of the TES process, the corresponding three-dimensional finite element thermal–mechanical coupling model and conditions were established by using DEFORM-3D. The variations of strain and stress of Mg/Al bimetallic composite tube at different deformation temperatures, and the effects of process parameters including extrusion velocity, preheating temperature, thicknesses of magnesium alloy billet, and friction factors on forming load were investigated. In addition, the change in multiple-physical fields in the whole TES process is simulated under preferable parameters. The results of OM and SEM show that the TES process can obviously refine the grains. And the metallurgical bonding effect of the Mg/Al bimetallic composite tube prepared by TES process is excellent under preferable process parameters, the hardness of the bonding layer is ~ 137.30 HV, and the shear bond strength is ~ 18.86 MPa.
