Abstract：

For the relationship problem between powder shape and powder mechanical behavior in powder compaction, a uniaxial compaction model of iron-based powder was established based on discrete element method, and the influence laws of powder shape on mechanical behaviors such as densification characteristics, microscopic contact force and macroscopic stress during compaction process were analyzed. The results show that during the compaction process, the porosity of powder decreases with the decreasing of shape coefficient AR, and the coordination number increases with the decreasing of shape coefficient AR. The anisotropy of powder contact force gradually increases with the decrease of the shape coefficient AR, while the contact anisotropy coefficients ac, an and at of powders with various shapes all undergo a change process from a sudden increase to a stable stage. In addition, the proportion of rapid increase stage in the compression stress of powder increases with the decreasing of shape coefficient AR, and the smaller the powder shape coefficient AR, the more concentrated the distribution of the internal stress in the system. Thus, the research theoretical basis of the mechanical behavior in powder compaction is further expanded to provide method guidance for improving the compactness of powder parts.
