 Abstract:
In this study, various engineering metals widely used as feedstock and substrates in kinetic spraying process were classified into four cases, i.e., soft/soft, hard/hard, hard/soft and soft/hard (particle/substrate), according to their physical and mechanical properties respectively. Based fon micro thermo-mechanical finite element modeling, impacting interface elements of four cases were numerically analyzed and impact behavior was characterized. For soft/soft and hard/hard cases, the maximum temperature at the side of substrate, which approached melting point, was higher than that of particle side when the shear instabilities occur. Meanwhile, for soft/hard, hard/soft cases, the specific aspect of shear instability, which has very high heat-up rate, was always observed at the relatively soft impact counterpart, and a thin molten layer was expected as well. Thus, the successful bonding of the above mentioned four cases can be predicted as a result of the synergistic effect of localized shear instability with interfacial melting. Furthermore, based on these phenomenological characteristics, critical velocities for various particle/substrate combinations were numerically estimated.
