  • Patent number: 10661335
    Abstract: In a localized torsional severe plastic deformation method for conical tube metal, a desired region of a conical tube metal can be subjected to severe plastic deformation using molds in which roughness is formed at predetermined regions. The method includes roughening a predetermined region of each of the molds; sticking the conical tube metal only to the roughened regions of the molds; moving the lower mold toward the upper mold to apply a load to the conical tube metal; and rotating the molds to apply severe plastic deformation to the conical tube metal only at the regions stuck to the roughened regions of the molds.

  • Publication number: 20200009631
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a torsional severe plastic deformation method for a metal bar to which surface polishing is applied to the metal bar to improve the mechanical properties of the metal bar. According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a torsional severe plastic deformation method for a metal bar, which includes: applying torsion to a metal bar; and removing a surface defect on the surface of the metal bar, the surface defect being caused by the applying of torsion, wherein the removing of the surface defect is carried out in a continuous manner in which the removing of the surface defect is performed together with the applying of torsion or in a discontinuous manner in which the applying of torsion is temporarily stopped and then the applying of torsion is performed, and the removing of a surface defect increases the amount of torsional rotation or the shear strain applied to the metal bar.

  • Patent number: 9447487
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a torsional extreme-plastic processing method. In other words, a processing method in which severe plastic deformation based on torsion and compressive force is applied to a material by using a mold to produce miniaturize and nano-size crystal particles in a conic pipe. According to the severe plastic deformation method of the present invention, a punch that matches an inner shape of the conic metal pipe is mounted inside the conic metal pipe, and then a mold that matches an outer shape of the conic metal pipe is mounted outside the conic metal pipe. Thus, microstructures of the conic metal pipe may be ultra-finely crystallized or nano-crystallized through shearing by applying compression and torsion to the conic metal pipe.
