Research of the Stress-Strain State of a Workpiece Under the Double Bending by the Pulse Loading

The object of research is the technology of metal processing by high-speed and high-energy methods, plastic deformation of layered metal compositions. Theoretical studies are based on the main provisions of the theory of joining metals in the solid phase, the theory of plasticity, explosion welding technology, plastic deformation of layered metal compositions, and their heat treatment. The main problem of creating layered metal compositions using explosion energy, including wear and corrosion resistant, electrical, materials with high ballistic resistance, etc., is that they have not yet taken their rightful place in the range of modern structural and functional materials. This can be explained by the limited application of this process, as well as the lagging behind the theory and experimental base in the field of joining various metals in the solid phase and providing the necessary performance properties according to the needs of modern industry. The process of deformation of the cladding blank during the explosion welding is considered. The process of the workpiece collision is considered in three stages: the movement of the element of the cladding workpiece before the collision, its inertial movement and deformation. The equations of motion and equilibrium of the elements of the workpiece are described. A joint solution of the equations of plasticity and equilibrium of the blank element in the double inflection zone is presented. The work is devoted to solving the problem of increasing the level of production and economic indicators of the manufacture of layered metal compositions through the development of methods for calculating and optimizing the technological parameters. Explosion welding, as the most versatile, promising, and economical method, which still has many possibilities for the application of mathematical modeling and process optimization, has been investigated for the production and subsequent processing of the main groups of industrial metal compositions. This makes it possible to solve the problem of replacing traditional materials with layered metal compositions. The results obtained are important from the point of view of the application of cost-effective materials with high mechanical, operational, and technological properties.
