The Effect of Injection Molding Parameters on Microcellular Foam Morphology
(2021)
Microcellular foam injection molding with physical blowing agent (MuCell®) delivers monetary benefits, processing advantages and freedom of product design by reducing shrinkage. In conjunction with an advanced mold technology, so-called Pull and Foam method, there is great potential in controlling the foam structure of the component locally. In this study, Polycarbonate (PC) components were produced with nearly compact outer skin and a closed cellular core. To understand the relation between processing parameters and ...

On the reliability of residual stress measurements in unidirectional carbon fibre reinforced epoxy composites
(2021-03-03)
The present work introduces a novel methodology to analyse non-uniform residual stresses in composite materials. For robust determination of stresses in complex structures made of different layers, it is first necessary to prove that residual stress analysis in a single layer structure can reliably be accomplished. In present work a unidirectional carbon fibre reinforced epoxy is investigated. For residual stress determination, the integral incremental hole drilling method is used. It is revealed that the standard ...

Ti6Al4V lattice structures manufactured by electron beam powder bed fusion - Microstructural and mechanical characterization based on advanced in situ techniques
(2022-12-17)
Powder bed fusion (PBF) processes enable the manufacturing of complex components in a time- and cost-efficient manner. Especially lattice structures are currently focused since they show varying mechanical properties, including different deformation and damage behaviors, which can be used to locally tailor the mechanical behavior. However, the present process-structure-property relationships are highly complex and have to be understood in detail in order to enable an implementation of PBF manufactured lattice structures ...

Effect of Grain Statistics on Micromechanical Modeling: The Example of Additively Manufactured Materials Examined by Electron Backscatter Diffraction
(2020-02-21)
Micromechanical modeling is one of the prominent numerical tools for the prediction of mechanical properties and the understanding of deformation mechanisms of metals. As input parameters, it uses data obtained from microstructure characterization techniques, among which the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique allows us to understand the nature of microstructural features, that are usually described by statistics. Because of these advantages, the EBSD dataset is widely used for synthetic microstructure ...

Influence of complex geometries on the properties of laser-hardened surfaces
(2020-04-25)
Laser surface hardening provides for many advantages in terms of flexible production due to very localized and controlled energy input into the material. Laser processing offers the possibility to treat surfaces in order to locally strengthen the areas that are prone to fatigue cracking. It is well known that laser energy absorption depends on many parameters, e.g., the surface structure and the surface orientation. The incident angle of the laser beam plays a key role in this regard. When complex geometries like ...

Excellent superelasticity in a Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy processed by directed energy deposition
(2020-04-30)
A Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy has been additively manufactured by directed energy deposition. Due to the highly anisotropic microstructure, i.e. columnar grains featuring a strong near-⟨001⟩ texture in build direction, the as-built material is characterized by a very low degree of constraints and, thus, shows excellent superelasticity without conducting a post-process heat treatment. As characterized by in situ deformation testing and post-mortem microstructural analysis, additive manufacturing ...

Untersuchung von Gussporen in einer Aluminium-Gusslegierung mit der Computertomographie
(2022-04)
In dieser Arbeit wird das Schädigungsverhalten einer Aluminium-Gusslegierung anhand von zweidimensionalen und dreidimensionalen Verfahren untersucht. Dabei liegt das Hauptaugenmerk auf innenliegenden Gussdefekten wie Gas- und Schrumpfungsporen. Die Schädigungsentwicklung unter schwingender Belastung, sowie der Einfluss auf die Mikrostruktur und die mechanischen Eigenschaften sowie die Wechselwirkung verschiedener Gussdefekte werden dabei untersucht. Insbesondere wird der beim Versagensverhalten entscheidende Einfluss ...

Mechanics of colloidal supraparticles under compression
(2021-10-13)
Colloidal supraparticles are finite, spherical assemblies of many primary particles. To take advantage of their emergent functionalities, such supraparticles must retain their structural integrity. Here, we investigate their size-dependent mechanical properties via nanoindentation. We find that the deformation resistance inversely scales with the primary particle diameter, while the work of deformation is dependent on the supraparticle diameter. We adopt the Griffith theory to such particulate systems to provide a ...

Hydrogen absorption of ultra-high strength aluminum-silicon coated 22MnB5 steels
(2022-12-30)
The hot forming process allows to produce safety-relevant structural components in the automotive industry with strengths of 1500 MPa and higher. Generally, high strengths make material sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. The heat treatment in the hot forming process chain is a potential source of diffusible hydrogen for hot-dipped aluminum-silicon coated boron-manganese steels. In the present work, the influence of different process gases and furnace dwell times during the heat treatment was investigated. Humidified ...

Linking through-thickness cracks in metallic thin films to in-situ electrical resistance peak broadening
(2022-01-29)
Measurements of electrical resistance have been used extensively as a failure criterion in cyclically loaded conductive films. However, not much research has been performed on extracting additional information contained within such resistance data sets. This study shows that an increase in peak width evidences a transition from cracks bridging to through-thickness crack formation. A Au/Cr bilayer system on a polyimide substrate is used for data generation but the method is applicable to any material system where both ...
