A GENERAL STUDY OF PROCESSES FOR THE REALIZATION OF DESIGN CONFIGURATIONS IN MATERIALS

Abstract

Studies were continued within the framework of process elements previously established. Highlights are (1) the concept of embrittlement machining based on one or more of several material embrittlement mechanisms and (2) recommendations for experimental investigation of surface hardening, oxidation retardation, and embrittlement of materials by ion bombardment. The role of electric and magnetic fields as primary and as auxiliary energy sources is explored. Electron, ion, and laser beams are compared, and their potential roles in material removal and material addition process are discussed. The embrittlement mechanisms are evaluated systematically as part of the search for material modifications that can enhance material removal, addition, and displacement operations. The effect of strain rate and temperature on material properties is investigated as part of the consideration of environmental effects in manufacturing processes. Dislocation behavior associated with strain is discussed.
