Abstract
The improved mechanical properties of surface nano-crystallized graded materials produced by surface severe plastic deformation (S2PD) are generally owing to the effects of the refined structure, work-hardened region and compressive residual stress. However, during the S2PD process, residual stress is produced simultaneously with work-hardened region, the individual contribution of these two factors to the improved mechanical properties remains unclear. Numerical simulations are carried out in order to answer this question. It is found that work hardening predominates in improving the yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength of the surface nano-crystallized graded materials, while the influence of the residual stress mainly emerges at the initial stage of deformation and decreases the apparent elastic modulus of the surface nano-crystallized graded materials, which agrees well with the experimental results. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.
