Man-Ping Chang Shang-Jui Lin Te-Hua Fang Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology, Kaohsiung 80778, Taiwan 10.3762/bjnano.13.108 Abstract The nano-punching characteristics of single-crystalline aluminum are investigated using the quasi
-continuum (QC) method. Four variables (i.e., crystal orientation, workpiece thickness, clearance between the punch and the substrate, and the taper angle of punch) are used to explore their effect during the nano-punching process. The shear stress distribution is used to express the punching effect on the
punch and on both sides of the substrates. Besides, fracture strength, residual flash, and the atomic displacement vector are observed and discussed regarding the behaviors of the nano-punching process under various conditions. Based on the results, the Al workpiece with the X[111]Y[−110] orientation
