Mechanical properties of a composite wax model material simulating plastic flow of metals

摘要: Abstract Although the use of non-metallic, model materials for simulation plastic deformations engineering alloys is well established in research laboratories, search “perfect” material still continues. It highly unlikely that a successful conclusion will be reached foreseeable futre, but exploration properties existing reveals they often possess considerable versatility. If this utilised small scale, laboratory experiments, patterns flow and response prototype to changing manufacturing conditions can studied at relatively low cost since no production plant need involved. The present experimental investigation provides numerical data which indicate ability ceresin, Carnauba, paraffin beeswax mixture represent satisfactorily variety metal-forming conditions.
