On the low-cycle fatigue behavior of thermo-mechanically processed high-strength aluminum alloys
(2021)
In the present work low-cycle fatigue experiments were carried out on thermo-mechanically processed AA6082 and AA7075 sheets to evaluate mechanical properties under cyclic loading. Different cooling rates imposed by use of tempered forming tools after solutionizing and subsequent aging treatment led to the formation of precipitates with differing sizes and morphologies. Specimens thermo-mechanically processed in tools with temperatures of 24 °C and 200 °C showed superior mechanical properties under both monotonic and ...

On the Effect of Quenching on Postweld Heat Treatment of Friction-Stir-Welded Aluminum 7075 Alloy
(2019)
This work focuses on the effect of postweld heat treatment (PWHT) on the mechanical properties and microstructural evolution of aluminum 7075 alloy processed via friction stir welding (FSW). FSW is known to be capable of grain refinement in the nugget zone (NZ). Two different quench media (water and air) were employed for PWHT. Regardless of the quench media, the PWHT led to the occurrence of grain growth in the NZ of the FSWed aluminum 7075 alloy. Abnormal grain growth occurred in the water quenched specimen. It is ...

On the Friction Stir Processing of Additive-Manufactured 316L Stainless Steel
(2022)
The novel combination of friction stir processing (FSP) and additive manufacturing (AM) is studied herein. Laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) is used to establish 316 L stainless steel with a bimodal microstructure. Upon FSP, the as-built bimodal microstructure with an average grain size of 179 μm is transformed into the unimodal microstructure containing ultrafine grains with an average grain size of 1.2 μm. Results obtained by mechanical testing reveal that after FSP; the hardness, the yield point, ...

Cyclic Deformation Response of Ultra-fine Grained Titanium at Elevated Temperatures
(2019)
This study focuses on the high-temperature cyclic deformation response (CDR) of ultra-fine grained (UFG) titanium of commercial purity (grade 4) processed via equal channel angular extrusion as a severe plastic deformation method. Low-cycle fatigue experiments were conducted at elevated temperatures up to 600 °C and at strain amplitudes ranging from 0.2% to 0.6%. Besides temperature and strain amplitude, the influence of two processing routes (8BC and 8E) on the fatigue characteristics of UFG Ti was examined. It is ...

Effect of grain size on the very high cycle fatigue behavior and notch sensitivity of titanium
(2019)
The very high-cycle fatigue performances of coarse-grained and ultrafine-grained titanium samples with different geometries at ambient temperature and various stress amplitudes were investigated. Severe plastic deformation improves monotonic strength of titanium at the cost of a loss in ductility. Ultrafine-grained titanium demonstrates a superior fatigue performance compared to that of coarse-grained counterparts in the high-cycle fatigue regime, however, suffers notch sensitivity. Furthermore, in the very high-cycle ...

Influence of deep rolling at different temperatures on near-surface and mechanical properties of a Maraging C250 steel
(2024-04-27)
Due to an outstanding combination of high strength and fracture toughness Maraging steels are used in numerous industries, e.g., in the aerospace sector. The high strength can be attributed to precipitation strengthening by conventional age-hardening heat treatments. However, as many of the envisaged applications will suffer from cyclic loadings, the fatigue properties are of significant interest in terms of a reliable use. Generally, Maraging steels are characterized by a relatively low fatigue strength limiting the ...

Oxide Modified Iron in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion - From Processability to Corrosion Properties
(2022-03-07)
Additive manufacturing (AM) processes are not solely used where maximum design freedom meets low lot sizes. Direct microstructure design and topology optimization can be realized concomitantly during processing by adjusting the geometry, the material composition, and the solidification behavior of the material considered. However, when complex specific requirements have to be met, a targeted part design is highly challenging. In the field of biodegradable implant surgery, a cytocompatible material of an application-adapted ...

Effects of blending poly(lactic acid) and thermoplastic polyester polyurethanes on the mechanical and adhesive properties in two-component injection molding
(2022-09-16)
One possible way to increase the use of bioplastics and thus contribute to a more resource-efficient and sustainable economy is to broaden the application range of such bioplastics. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a promising and commercially available bio-based and biologically degradable polymer, which exhibits a high strength and stiffness but is very brittle. Blending with other polymers can lead to an enhancement of the ductility of the PLA. The goal of this work was to show that blending of PLA with a bio-based ...

Process Influences in the Combined Compacting and Back-Injection Process to Produce Back-Injected Self-Reinforced Composites (SRCs) – Analysis via Multiple Regression Modelling
(2021-11-21)
A new process to produce back-injected self-reinforced composites (SRCs) is presented. In contrast to other investigations on back-injection of SRCs, a process is presented which allows compacting and back injection of SRCs in one step where the SRCs are partly consolidated only via melt pressure inside the cavity. The mechanical properties of SRCs depend to a large extent on the process parameters of temperature and pressure during manufacture. These parameters are not yet known for back-injected areas. Sensors ...

Mechanical Characterization and Simulation of Wood Textile Composites (WTC) supported by Digital Image Correlation (DIC)
(2023-05-30)
Wood Textile Composites (WTC) based on willow wood fabrics and polypropylene were produced using a hot compacting process in order to open up new and innovative areas of applications for wood. Due to their attractive and variable design, the WTCs are to be used in areas with a high visual impact, for example as a facade element. In tensile and 3-point bending tests, it was shown that the mechanical properties of WTC are strongly dependent on the heterogeneous structure of the composite. Both strength and elongation ...
