Tóm tắt

Ultrasonic Impact Treatment (UIT) is an effective technique for surface refinement and residual stress reduction, which is widely used in welding. This study investigates UIT-assisted Wire and Arc Additive manufacturing (WAAM). The residual stress, grain morphology and mechanical properties of post-UIT and as-deposited samples are studied. The result demonstrates that the UIT has a significant influence on the decrease of the residual stress. Moreover, the residual stress of the post-UIT samples is much lower than that of the as-deposited samples. The samples fabricated by UIT-assisted WAAM have a novel, bamboo-like distribution of prior-β grains, an alternating distribution of short columnar grains and equiaxed grains. The grain size of this bamboo-like structure is much smaller than the coarsen columnar grains. In addition, the mechanical properties of the post-UIT and as-deposited samples are compared. The results indicate that the average tensile strength of the post-UIT samples is higher, while the average elongation of the post-UIT samples is lower.
