Energy Resolved Residual Stress Analysis with Laboratory X-Ray Sources
(2017-04-17)
It is well known that existing residual stress fields play an important role for strength and lifetime of components. Consequently there is a great interest in the availability of fast, reliable and possibly nondestructive methods for their determination. In this context, X-ray diffraction methods play an important role in technical practice as well as in scientific research. They are based on the determination of lattice strains from which residual stresses are determined applying Hooke's law with appropriate elastic ...

Prozessintegration von induktiver Wärmebehandlung und Festwalzen – sichere und zuverlässige Komponenten mit hoher Schwingfestigkeit
(2017-02-08)
Mechanische Oberflächenbehandlungen, beispielsweise das Festwalzen, spielen in der technischen Praxis eine bedeutende Rolle und tragen wesentlich zur Steigerung der Zuverlässigkeit hochbeanspruchter Komponenten bei. In einer Reihe von Fällen wurde gezeigt, dass eine Erhöhung der Prozesstemperatur die Wirksamkeit der Verfahren noch steigert, weil dies zu einer besseren Stabilisierung der eingebrachten Druckeigenspannungen führt. Eine wesentliche Voraussetzung zur Einführung dieser Verfahren in die Praxis ist allerdings, ...

Effect of nanometric γ´-particles on the stress-induced martensitic transformation in ⟨001⟩-oriented Co49Ni21Ga30 shape memory alloy single crystals
(2019)
The effect of finely dispersed particles on the functional properties and morphology of thermally induced martensite in Co-Ni-Ga shape memory alloys has been already reported in literature, however, still important aspects are not fully understood. The current study focuses on the stress-induced martensitic transformation of solution-annealed, i.e. precipitate-free, and aged 〈001〉-oriented single crystals. In situ optical microscopy and neutron diffraction experiments show a significant influence of γ′-particles on ...

Additive manufacturing of Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy - Processability 3 and phase transformation behavior
(2019)
Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy is additively processed by selective laser melting for the first time. Reversiblemartensitic transformation of the as-built material is proven by differential scanning calorimetry. Microstructural analysis reveals a columnar-grained microstructure due to epitaxial solidification. Columnar-grained microstructures are characterized by a very low degree of constraints being beneficial for superior functional performance in numerous shape memory alloys. However, process-induced ...

Pathways towards grain boundary engineering for improved structural performance in polycrystalline Co-Ni-Ga shape memory alloys
(2018)
Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloys attracted a lot of scientific attention due to their superior functional material properties in recent years. In the single crystalline state Co-Ni-Ga HT-SMAs feature a good pseudoelastic response up to 500°C. However, in the polycrystalline condition Co-Ni-Ga suffers significant grain constraints and premature fracture at grain boundaries. In this regard, crystallographic orientation of the grain being involved as well as morphology and geometrical orientation of the ...

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 ...

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 ...

Time-of-Flight Three Dimensional Neutron Diffraction in Transmission Mode for Mapping Crystal Grain Structures
(2017-08-25)
The physical properties of polycrystalline materials depend on their microstructure, which is the nano- to centimeter scale arrangement of phases and defects in their interior. Such microstructure depends on the shape, crystallographic phase and orientation, and interfacing of the grains constituting the material. This article presents a new non-destructive 3D technique to study centimeter-sized bulk samples with a spatial resolution of hundred micrometers: time-of-flight three-dimensional neutron diffraction (ToF ...
