Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, the micro metal forming with thin metal foils has been focused on for inexpensively and rapidly producing micro parts with low cost in various fields such as medical and electronic devices. However, it is not easy to apply conventional macro-scale metal forming technology to micro scale from the viewpoint of "size effect". In this study, we developed a small micro bi-axial tensile testing machine. In-situ observation of the strain distribution and the microscopic behavior of the viewpoint of the grain and surface shape level during plastic deformation for the thin-metal foils. The fracture mechanism of the metal foils was clarified by visualizing the surface roughening behavior and the process leading to the occurrence of local necking and fracture under various strain conditions using the developed testing machine.
