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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

On the Monotonic and Cyclic Behavior of an Al-Mg-Zn-Cu-Si Compositionally Complex Alloy
(2023-08-03)
In present work, the monotonic and cyclic properties of a novel Al-Mg-Zn-Cu-Si compositionally complex alloy (CCA) are investigated. Microstructural studies reveal that a eutectic phase and fishbone-type structures are embedded in the Al-matrix. The mechanical properties of this CCA obtained under compressive loading are found to be promising. However, low ultimate strength and brittle behavior are seen under tension. The fatigue performance of the alloy in the low-cycle fatigue (LCF) regime is poor. Microstructural ...

Hot Sheet Metal Forming Strategies for High-Strength Aluminum Alloys: A Review—Fundamentals and Applications
(2023-05-17)
In the past decade, aluminum alloys have become important structural materials in the automotive industry, thanks to their low density, high strength, high fracture toughness, and good fatigue performance. However, an important limitation of aluminum alloys is their poor formability at room temperature; as a result, numerous studies have been conducted with the aim of developing forming techniques to overcome this and facilitate the forming of more complex-shaped components. Following an overview on the metallurgical ...

Experimental Analysis of the Stability of Retained Austenite in a Low-Alloy 42CrSi Steel after Different Quenching and Partitioning Heat Treatments
(2023-06-21)
Quenching and partitioning (Q&P) steels are characterized by an excellent combination of strength and ductility, opening up great potentials for advanced lightweight components. The Q&P treatment results in microstructures with a martensitic matrix being responsible for increased strength whereas interstitially enriched metastable retained austenite (RA) contributes to excellent ductility. Herein, a comprehensive experimental characterization of microstructure evolution and austenite stability is carried out on a ...
