Abstract
Optimization of process parameters for direct laser metal deposition of WC (88 wt%) and Co (12 wt%) mixed powder on SS304 substrate was carried out to obtain minimum dilution. The effect of process parameters on clad geometric elements was expressed through polynomial relations. A mathematical expression for dilution was developed in terms of clad geometric elements and then verified with experimentally obtained dilution. The regression analysis for each geometric element and dilution was also studied. To obtain an optimized set of process parameters four recently developed optimization algorithms were used, which was then followed by a confirmation test. Bonobo Optimizer algorithm was fast during the search for the globally optimum solution. A detailed macroscopic, microstructural, thermo-cycle and XRD analysis for the confirmed optimized run was carried out along with the comparison study. The hardness behaviour of clad tracks was also studied by comparing it with that of the substrate.
期刊介绍:
Powder Technology is an International Journal on the Science and Technology of Wet and Dry Particulate Systems. Powder Technology publishes papers on all aspects of the formation of particles and their characterisation and on the study of systems containing particulate solids. No limitation is imposed on the size of the particles, which may range from nanometre scale, as in pigments or aerosols, to that of mined or quarried materials. The following list of topics is not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to indicate typical subjects which fall within the scope of the journal's interests:
Formation and synthesis of particles by precipitation and other methods.
Modification of particles by agglomeration, coating, comminution and attrition.
Characterisation of the size, shape, surface area, pore structure and strength of particles and agglomerates (including the origins and effects of inter particle forces).
Packing, failure, flow and permeability of assemblies of particles.
Particle-particle interactions and suspension rheology.
Handling and processing operations such as slurry flow, fluidization, pneumatic conveying.
Interactions between particles and their environment, including delivery of particulate products to the body.
Applications of particle technology in production of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, foods, pigments, structural, and functional materials and in environmental and energy related matters.
For materials-oriented contributions we are looking for articles revealing the effect of particle/powder characteristics (size, morphology and composition, in that order) on material performance or functionality and, ideally, comparison to any industrial standard.
