Abstract
The effect of autofrettage process on thick-walled cylinders has been investigated here. It is observed that flow stress distribution along the cylinders remains same for same k values. Comparison with Zhu Yang’s model has been also done in determination of optimum elasto-plastic radius, ropt and optimum autofrettage pressure, popt. Equivalent von Mises stress is used as yield criterion. It is observed that percentage of reduction of maximum von Mises stress increases as value of k and working pressure increases. Maximum von Mises stress is minimum for lower working pressure at same value of k and autofrettage pressure. Autofrettage process never starts if autofrettage pressure does not exceed working pressure. It is also observed that two limits of autofrettage pressure Py1 Py2 are not appropriate. Effect of loading stages on autofrettage process is also investigated. As long as the pressures in first and last stage remains constant, there is no effect of loading stages on autofrettage process; no matters how many stages prevails between these two pressures.
