Abstract
During tribological contact’s life, different deformation paths lead to the formation of high deformed microstructure, in the near-surface layers of the bodies. The mechanical conditions (high pressure, shear) occurring under contact, are reproduced through unconstrained High Pressure Torsion configuration. A 3D finite element model of this HPT test is developed to study the local deformation history leading to high deformed microstructure with nominal pressure and friction coefficient. For the present numerical study the friction coefficient at the interface sample/anvils is kept constant at 0.3; the material used is high purity iron. The strain distribution in the sample bulk, as well as the main components of the strain gradients according to the spatial coordinates are investigated, with rotation angle of the anvil.
