Effect of Crystallographic Orientation and Grain Boundaries on Martensitic Transformation and Superelastic Response of Oligocrystalline Fe–Mn–Al–Ni Shape Memory Alloys
(2021-07-26)
In situ tensile tests employing digital image correlation were conducted to study the martensitic transformation of oligocrystalline Fe–Mn–Al–Ni shape memory alloys in depth. The influence of different grain orientations, i.e., near-〈001〉 and near-〈101〉, as well as the influence of different grain boundary misorientations are in focus of the present work. The results reveal that the reversibility of the martensite strongly depends on the type of martensitic evolving, i.e., twinned or detwinned. Furthermore, it is ...

Describing mechanical damage evolution through in situ electrical resistance measurements
(2023-02-27)
The fatigue properties of metallizations used as electrical conductors in flexible electronic devices have been thoroughly studied over the years. Most studies use time-intensive characterization methods to evaluate mechanical damage. For their ease of access, in situ electrical resistance measurements are often performed along with other characterization methods. However, the data are mostly used as an indicator of failure and a thorough analysis is usually missing. This work presents some deeper analysis methods ...

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 ...

Promoting abnormal grain growth in Fe-based shape memory alloys through compositional adjustments
(2019-05-28)
Iron-based shape memory alloys are promising candidates for large-scale structural applications due to their cost efficiency and the possibility of using conventional processing routes from the steel industry. However, recently developed alloy systems like Fe–Mn–Al–Ni suffer from low recoverability if the grains do not completely cover the sample cross-section. To overcome this issue, here we show that small amounts of titanium added to Fe–Mn–Al–Ni significantly enhance abnormal grain growth due to a considerable ...

Cyclic degradation of Co49Ni21Ga30 high-temperature shape memory alloy - On the roles of dislocation activity and chemical order
(2015)
Conventional shape memory alloys (SMAs), such as binary Ni-Ti, are typically limited to service temperatures below 100 °C. Recent studies on Co-Ni-Ga high temperature (HT) SMAs revealed the potential that these alloys can be used up to temperatures of about 400 °C. Analysis of the cyclic functional properties showed that degradation in these alloys is mainly triggered by intensive dislocation motion. However, data on the cyclic stress-strain response and the mechanisms leading to functional degradation of Co-Ni-Ga ...

Investigation of the adhesive strength in a combined compaction and back-injection process to produce back-injected self-reinforced composites (SRCs)
(2022-03-08)
This publication investigates the adhesion between an injection molded component and a self-reinforced composite (SRC) produced in a combined compaction and back-injection process to produce back-injected self-reinforced composites. To study the influence of the process, the parameters barrel temperature, time of injection, and tool temperature were varied. In addition, samples were taken at different positions along the flow path. In light of the orthotropic material behavior of SRCs, investigations were conducted ...

Climatic Ageing of Components of Polymer Based Electrochromic Devices
(2013-09-09)
Combining a shading function and a polycarbonate window displays an attractive alternative to the currently employed glass roof in vehicles. However, the ageing of such a device must be investigated before any application. Therefore, our investigations focus on the ageing of the components of a polycarbonate based electrochromic device. The optical, electrical, mechanical and electrochemical properties of the ion storage layer as well as the substrate will be assessed after storage in a climate with a high humidity ...

Holzdesign trifft Kunststofftechnik
(2022)
Werkstoffverbunde aus Holzgeweben in einer thermoplastischen Matrix verbinden die Idee des textilen Holzbaus mit der Faserverbundtechnologie. In einem Projekt werden Fassadenelemente aus solchen Wood Textile Composites hergestellt. Dabei spielt neben den mechanischen Anforderungen auch die gestalterische Seite und die Akzeptanz der zukünftigen Nutzer eine wichtige Rolle.

Influence of Microstructure and Defects on Mechanical Properties of AISI H13 Manufactured by Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion
(2021-08-04)
Electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF) is a well-known additive manufacturing process. Components are realized based on layer-by-layer melting of metal powder. Due to the high degree of design freedom, additive manufacturing came into focus of tooling industry, especially for tools with sophisticated internal cooling channels. The present work focuses on the relationships between processing, microstructure evolution, chemical composition and mechanical properties of a high alloyed tool steel AISI H13 (1.2344, ...

Hot Work Tool Steel Processed by Laser Powder Bed Fusion: A Review on Most Relevant Influencing Factors
(2021-03-26)
As a representative of a common carbon-bearing hot work tool steel AISI H13 is in focus of the present review paper. Most relevant details for processing of AISI H13 by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) are systematically investigated. Three common stages of process parameter development and material assessment, respectively, are in focus: general processibility, process refinement, and deduction of process–microstructure–property relations, i.e., understanding of the interplay of relevant elementary mechanisms. On the ...
