Deepening the cognition of ultrasonic vibration's role on plastic deformation of 2219 aluminum alloy tube during ultrasonic surface rolling process by Zhang YuanQi, Zhan Mei, Fan XiaoGuang

“…According to simulation results, when static force is increased by 47.5% (from 400 N to 590 N), to obtain the same plastic strain or plastic deformation layer, the dynamic impact force needs to be lifted by about 17 times, 25 times, respectively. The contribution ratio of dynamic impact force to the thickness of plastic deformation layer is ∼5.5%, which is far less than that of static force. …”
