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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Pathways toward the Use of Non-Destructive Micromagnetic Analysis for Porosity Assessment and Process Parameter Optimization in Additive Manufacturing of 42CrMo4 (AISI 4140)
(2024-02-20)
Laser-based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) is a widely applied additive manufacturing technique. Thus, PBF-LB/M represents a potential candidate for the processing of quenched and tempered (Q&T) steels such as 42CrMo4 (AISI 4140), as these steels are often considered as the material of choice for complex components, e.g., in the toolmaking industry. However, due to the presence of process-induced defects, achieving a high quality of the resulting parts remains challenging in PBF-LB/M. Therefore, an extensive ...

Bend Straightening of a Carbonitrided Gear Shaft – Consequences on Residual Stresses and Retained Austenite near the Surface
(2017-06-20)
Carbonitriding of shafts in drive technology is strongly connected with distortion. Bend straightening is an important process step in order to eliminate distortion without removing the hardened surface layer. As shown in several investigations, even for simple part geometries, bending induced stresses and plastic deformations have a strong impact not only on the residual stress state but also on the microstructure after straightening. As gear shafts become increasingly filigree and complex in their geometry, the ...

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 ...
