Comparaisons calculs-essais pour l'éprouvette cylindrique

In this first application of the machining simulation tool prototype, great difficulties were encountered in the interpretaion of the physical test. In fact, parasitic deformations occured, with a three-lobed form. This implied the necessity of filtering the experimental data and a physical interpretation of the undue deformation. A theoretical study is performed, leading to the result that this phenomenon is due to the combined effect of the clearance of the clamping jaws and the pre-stress of the dead center.
