Development of an X-ray based non-destructive method for the determination of deformation during machining of a high-performance Ni-based superalloy

该项目旨在通过开发一种基于X射线衍射的非破坏性实验方法来显著降低与加工相关的成本，通过该方法可以测量部件上的变形，从而提供了一种数据驱动的加工方法并限制了不必要的刀具更换，同时还提供了加工引起的变形的测量。该项目将寻求开发该方法，以便将其集成到机械加工钻机上，促进实时变形量化。此外，该方法将为航空航天工业中使用的高温合金建立加工变形图，使性能得到改善，并确定特定于合金的加工工艺。

This project aims to significantly reduce the cost associated with machining by developing a non-destructive experimental method based on X-ray diffraction through which the deformation on a component can be measured hence providing a data-driven approach to machining and limiting unnecessary tool replacements whilst also providing a measure of deformation due to machining. The project will seek to develop the methodology so that it can be integrated on machining rigs, facilitating real-time deformation quantification. In addition, the methodology will establish the machining deformation maps for a superalloy used in the aerospace industry, enabling improved performance to be achieved as well as alloy-specific machining processes to be determined.
