摘要

To meet the demand for high-strength and high-performance tubes in modern industry, this paper proposes an axial compression electromagnetic bulging (ACEB) process, which is based on the traditional electromagnetic bulging (TEB) by adding a booster coil, driving plate, and driving steel block at the tube end. The study compares the macroscopic plastic deformation, fracture morphology, grain structure, and dislocation distribution of tubes produced by TEB and ACEB. Simulation results show that the axial electromagnetic force generated by the booster coil, transmitted through the driving plate and steel block, enhances axial material flow at the tube end. Under ACEB, the tubes exhibit microporous ductile fractures with stronger plastic deformation, compared to TEB's mixed brittle-ductile fractures. ACEB induces significant recrystallization at the tube end (19.90%) due to severe collisions, high-speed deformation, and poor heat dissipation. Both processes increase dislocation density, but the dislocation distribution in the ACEB process is more uniform, enhancing plasticity.
