Microstructural and Mechanical Properties of AISI 4140 Steel Processed by Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion Analyzed Using Miniature Samples
(ASTM International, 2022-02-26)
The present study reports on the identification of an adequate process window for electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF) of AISI 4140 steel. For characterization, only miniature samples were used. It is clearly revealed that, for comparison and evaluation of different conditions, the use of such small samples is absolutely sufficient, even under fatigue loading. The initial E-PBF as-built condition is compared with conventionally heat-treated conditions (i.e., normalized as well as quenched and tempered). Based on ...

Investigation of processing windows in additive manufacturing of AlSi10Mg for faster production utilizing data-driven modeling
(2022-04-29)
To reduce production time and decrease production cost, the increase of layer thickness is an adequate option in powder bed fusion. In order to determine the relationships between process parameters in laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) and final porosity in AlSi10Mg, samples were processed following a space-filling experimental design in the present study. A total of 144 samples were fabricated considering layer thicknesses of 30 µm, 45 µm, 60 µm, and 90 µm. Afterwards, porosity was assessed using image analysis and ...

On the influence of ϰ-carbides on the low-cycle fatigue behavior of high-Mn light-weight steels
(2021)
High-manganese light-weight steels offer a great potential for structural purposes in the mobility sector due to their reduced density combined with outstanding mechanical properties. As many of the envisaged applications of these materials will suffer from cyclic loading during their service life, the fundamentals of their fatigue behavior must be studied extensively. In the present work, the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) properties of an austenitic Fe-29.8Mn-7.65Al-1.11C light-weight steel were investigated. Two ...

On the structural integrity of Fe-36Ni Invar alloy processed by selective laser melting
(2020)
Specimens made from pre-alloyed Invar (Fe-36Ni) powder were fabricated by selective laser melting and stress-relief heat treated afterwards. A relative density of the fabricated parts of 99.6 % was determined by computed tomography. The microstructure and mechanical behavior under monotonic and particularly cyclic loading at ambient temperature were investigated. Results reveal a bimodal microstructure containing columnar and equiaxed grains with an average grain size of 75 μm and pronounced texture 〈001〉 || BD. The ...

Dynamic Tensile Deformation of High Strength Aluminum Alloys Processed Following Novel Thermomechanical Treatment Strategies
(2020-05-14)
Herein, the effects of a very recently introduced novel thermomechanical process route on the microstructural evolution and dynamic tensile deformation behavior of two different precipitation hardenable aluminum alloys, i.e., AA6082 and AA7075, are studied. The investigated materials are hot formed and quenched in differently tempered tools to reveal the influence of cooling rate. Microstructure analysis is conducted to study the influences of different cooling strategies on the microstructure evolution and prevailing ...

Effect of Compositional Variation Induced by EBM Processing on Deformation Behavior and Phase Stability of Austenitic Cr-Mn-Ni TRIP Steel
(2020-01-24)
Electron beam melting (EBM) is an established powder bed-based additive manufacturing process for the fabrication of complex-shaped metallic components. For metastable austenitic Cr-Mn-Ni TRIP steel, the formation of a homogeneous fine-grained microstructure and outstanding damage tolerance have been reported. However, depending on the process parameters, a certain fraction of Mn evaporates. This can have a significant impact on deformation mechanisms as well as kinetics, as was previously shown for as-cast material. ...

On the Impact of Texture and Grain Size on the Pseudoelastic Properties of Polycrystalline Fe–Ni–Co–Al–Ti Alloy
(2020-05-08)
The effects of thermomechanical treatments on crystallographic texture and grain size evolution and their impact on the pseudoelastic properties in Fe41–Ni28–Co17–Al11.5–Ti2.5 (at.%) were studied in the present paper. The results show that cold rolling leads to brass-type texture in this alloy, which is typical for low stacking fault energy materials. Thermal treatments up to 1300 °C were conducted and it is shown that the presence of β-phase helps to control grain growth. After the dissolution of the secondary phase ...

A Novel Approach to Robustly Determine Residual Stress in Additively Manufactured Microstructures Using Synchrotron Radiation
(2021-07-29)
In recent decades additive manufacturing (AM) for years has been in focus of academia and industry as its underlying production principle allows for the realization of designs of unprecedented geometrical complexity. However, often such structures are not realized due to the lack of understanding of structural and mechanical properties, this fact amongst others related to the unique microstructures established by the related processes. In this context, residual stresses, highly affected by the scan strategy and process ...

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 ...

Liquid Silicone Rubber Foams Made with Water as Blowing Agent
(2021-08-18)
Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) is primarily used in injection molding. Foamed molded parts made of LSR are almost nonexistent because the process reliability of LSR foam injection molding is currently not given. It makes sense to have suitable foaming processes for this material as well, because the density of this elastomer is about 1.15 g cm−3. With the injection molding process presented herein for foaming LSR, density reductions of up to 40% can be achieved. In this process, up to 3% by weight of water is added to ...
