With increasing challenges of operating conditions, a constant need in improvement of mechanical properties is required to withstand extreme loading conditions. This can be obtained by a higher amount of ionized sputtered metal atoms during the deposition process. To increase the metal-ion flux a high-power pulse magnetron sputtering (HPPMS) was developed. In order to understand the relation between HPPMS process parameters and mechanical properties of the AlTiN coatings, the present study discusses how different pulse frequencies (for a constant pulse length) influence AlTiN coating structure growth and their mechanical properties. In addition, film deposition rate and phase formation are influenced by altering process parameters like pulse length and frequency. Hence, different pulse-frequencies produce specific coatings with corresponding properties for functional requirements. Based on the established findings, answers to new scientific queries along with the demand to further optimize these coatings for tool applications are required.

T1 - Oxidation Behavior of Zr–1Nb Corroded in Air at 400 °C after Plasma Immersion Titanium Implantation T2 - Metals N2 - In this paper, the influence of plasma immersion titanium implantation into the zirconium alloy Zr-1Nb on the oxidation behavior at 400 °C for 5, 24, 72, and 240 h in air under normal atmospheric pressure (101.3 kPa) was shown. The influence of implantation on the protective properties of the modified layer was shown. The valence of the oxides before and after implantation was analyzed by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) was carried out to examine the phase composition after titanium ion implantation and oxidation. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed that titanium implantation exhibited effects of stabilizing the β phase. The formation of the t-ZrO2 and m-ZrO2 was observed during the oxidation of the as-received and modified Zr-1Nb. The measurement of weight gain showed an improvement in oxidation resistance of Ti implanted Zr-1Nb at the oxidation up to 24 h when compared with that of the as-received Zr-1Nb. However, at longer oxidation cycle the oxidation rate of Ti-implanted zirconium alloy is the same with the as-received alloy, which attributed to the layer thickness. Nevertheless, the corrosion of the Ti-implanted alloy is more uniform, while a local corrosion and cracks was detected on the surface of the as-received alloy.

Hydrogen sorption kinetics of the Ti-modified alloy was investigated under gas-phase hydrogenation at 400 °C for 1 h. The influence of implantation time on the protective properties of the modified layer was shown. The lowest hydrogen absorption as well as the highest hydrogen trapping efficiency was achieved after PIII for 30 min. The main contribution to the reduction of hydrogen permeation is the formation of an oxide layer consisting of mixed TiO2 and ZrO2 on the modified surface of the alloy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that PIII titanium oxide exists on the surface in the form of TiO2, which transforms to mixed Ti2O3 and TiO2 after hydrogenation. The thickness of the modified layer increases with implantation time that improves the efficiency of hydrogen trapping. All the absorbed hydrogen is gradually distributed in the modified layer and no hydrides are formed after hydrogenation in Ti-modified Zr-1Nb for 15 and 30 min.

The influence of the substrate bias voltage on the crystal structure, mechanical, and tribological properties before and after hydrogen exposure was studied. It was found that increasing the substrate bias voltage leads to densification of the coating. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results reveal a change from mixed fcc-CrN + hcp-Cr₂N to the approximately stoichiometric hcp-Cr₂N phase with increasing substrate bias confirmed by wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDS). The texture coefficients of (113), (110), and (111) planes vary significantly with increasing substrate bias voltage. The hydrogen permeability was measured by gas-phase hydrogenation. The CrN coating deposited at 60 V with mixed c-CrN and (113) textured hcp-Cr₂N phases exhibits the lowest hydrogen absorption at 873 K. It is suggested that the crystal orientation is only one parameter influencing the permeation resistance of the CrNx coating together with the film structure, the presence of mixing phases, and the packing density of the structure. After hydrogenation, the hardness increased for all coatings, which could be related to the formation of a Cr₂O₃ oxide film on the surface, as well as the defect formation after hydrogen loading. Tribological tests reveal that hydrogenation leads to a decrease of the friction coefficient by up to 40%. The lowest value of 0.25 ± 0.02 was reached for the CrNₓ coating deposited at 60 V after hydrogenation.

In this study, stainless steel (1.4301) and aluminum alloy (6082-T6) sheets were welded in overlap configuration in keyhole mode. The resulting weld metals were investigated with respect to their mechanical properties. Several samples were cut out of different locations along the welds and their cross-sections were subjected to indentation testing and energy dispersive X-ray (EDS) analysis. Young's modulus E, yield stress σy, and strain hardening exponent n, were determined by means of reverse analysis of the indentation load (P) – depth (h) curves, allowing construction of true stress – true strain relations. An essential increase in yield stress in comparison to the one of the base alloys was observed inside the weld metal. In contrary, Young's modulus and strain hardening exponent of the welds were almost identical to corresponding values of the base steel metal. Due to the sensitivity of yield stress to the aluminum content, slight variations of the welding parameters lead to significant changes in elastic-plastic behavior of the weld metal.

A1 - Weiß, Sabine T1 - Oxidation behavior of Zr–1Nb in air at 400°C after Titanium Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation N2 - Zirconium alloys have been widely used in nuclear reactors due to low thermal neutron capture cross-section, excellent corrosion resistance and acceptable mechanical properties [1, 2]. Nowadays several methods apply for improving hydrogen and corrosion resistance such as addition of stabilizing additives (yttrium) [3, 4], deposition of thin solid films [5, 6], micro-arc oxidation [7] and modification of the surface by electron beam [8, 9]. Despite the multiplicity of the methods hydrogen embrittlement is still a pressing issue. Previous results [10, 11] have shown the positive influence of plasma immersion titanium implantation on the hydrogenation behavior of Zr–1Nb and Zr–2.5 Nb. After Ti implantation hydrogen preferably accumulates in the modified surface layer comprising the implanted Ti. Furthermore, the hydrogen concentration is considerably less inside the zirconium modified sample than in the as-received samples. The integration of elements into the zirconium lattice can influence the valence of the surface and change corrosion and oxidation rates of the alloys. So it is very important not to decrease the zirconium oxidation resistance due to Ti implantation. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to study of the influence of Ti implantation on surface morphology, oxidation rate and phase structure of the Zr–1Nb alloy after oxidation on air at 400 0C for 5, 24, 72 and 240 h. The surface structure of the samples and their elemental composition were investigated with the scanning electron microscope Mira II XMH (Tescan) with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy system (EDS). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to characterise the influence of titanium implantation on the oxidation behaviour. The results show that the oxidation kinetics after Ti modification of the zirconium alloy changed. Although the weight gain of the implanted sample remains approximately the same, it can be considered that Ti implantation stabilizes the oxide layer and has beneficial influence on the oxidation protection of Zr-1Nb.

As a result, high operational flexibility is becoming a vital requirement for conventional power plants to allow for the smooth integration of the variable renewable energy sources (v-RES) into the grid. To understand the impact of high operational flexibility (increased cycling) for coal-fired power plant materials, five commercial coal boiler superheater and reheater materials were investigated under isothermal and cyclic conditions for 1000 h each. The candidate alloys investigated were: T91, VM12-SHC, TP347-HFG, DMV304 HCu and DMV310 N. The results (weight change kinetics and metallographic analysis) after exposure at a metal surface temperature of 650 °C clearly showed the impact of increased flexibility on the corrosion and oxidation of the materials. Oxide growth (weight gain), metal loss, oxide spallation, and grain boundary attack were found to be more severe under cyclic conditions than under isothermal conditions.

To combine high strength and stiffness in a cost-effective way, composites are often joined with steel or aluminum. However, joining of thermoset composite materials is challenging because circular holes are often used to join them with their metal counterparts. These design based circular holes induce high stress concentration around the hole. The purpose of this paper is to focus on layup configuration and its impact on notch stress distribution. To ensure high quality and uniformity, the holes were machined by a 5 kW continuous wave (cw) CO2 laser. The stress distribution was evaluated and compared by using finite element analysis and Lekhnitskii’s equations. For further understanding, the notch strength of the laminates was compared and strain distributions were analyzed using the digital image correlation technique.

Gas-phase hydrogenation was performed to evaluate protective properties of the modified layer against hydrogen permeation into Zr-1Nb alloy. The effects of ion implantation and hydrogen on microstructure, phase composition and elemental distribution of TiZr layer were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and glow-discharge optical emission spectroscopy, respectively. It was revealed that TiZr layer (~10 μm thickness) is represented by α′ + α(TiZr) lamellar microstructure with gradient distribution of Ti through the layer depth. It was shown that the formation of TiZr layer provides significant reduction of hydrogen uptake by zirconium alloy at 400 and 500 °C. Hydrogenation of the modified layer leads to refinement of lamellar plates and formation of more homogenous microstructure. Hydrogen desorption from Ti-implanted Zr-1Nb alloy was analyzed by thermal desorption spectroscopy. Hydrogen interaction with the surface modified TiZr layer, as well as its resistance properties, are discussed.

The prepared samples were investigated using light-microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicated that the surface of all pores is represented by a granular stratum due to dendrite liquation by peritectic crystallization mechanism. The voids of 2–15 μm in size are formed owing to a capillary spreading of the liquid. Reaction gases with dissociated carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen are responsible for heat-and-mass transfer through the forming pores. High pressure-temperature effect of reaction gases on the melt causes the forming voids to coalesce, as well as transfers the peritectic liquid (PL) throughout the open pores catalyzing a distinctive spitted topography. It is through the chemisorption of gasiform nonmetallics by the pore surface melt, where these impurities are chemically bound, that it was formed a massive corrosion-resistant amorphous-nanocrystalline stratified shell deduced as an intermetallic oxycarbonitride layer.

The samples were investigated using light microscopy (LM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The findings indicate that in addition to the TiNi and Ti2Ni intermetallic constituents, the pore's surface contains numerous Ti4Ni2(O,N,C) nanocrystalline oxycarbonitrides, spinels, polysilicates, and residual amorphous phases. The elemental composition of the surface and crystalline inclusions is investigated by the EDS method. LM, SEM, TEM, and EDS instrumental examination revealed the entire surface comprising a continuous shell of intermetallic superficial bulb-shaped structures, as well as crystalline inclusions of polysilicates and spinels in the intergranular peritectic phase. Prominent morphology was confirmed to appear throughout the pore's surface owing to the interaction of the peritectic liquid (PL) with reaction gases. The epitaxial, nanocrystalline strata of intermetallic oxycarbonitrides were shown to have the intricate nature. Reaction gases chemisorbed by the PL are responsible for the continuous and dense substrate, which ultrafine structure modulates a high corrosion resistance. On the contrary, the sparse and foamy overlay resulted from a convective transfer of the PL by reaction gases facilitates in vivo bio-integration of the alloy. Overall, this sheds light on and may be more indicative of the complex role of superficial strata and nonmetallic crystals in enhanced biocompatibility of the unwrought porous TiNi alloy.

The aim of this study was to recover poly-dispersed nonionic surfactant (TX-100) from organic medium by the use of dehydrated and rehydrated kaolin. It was found that the presence of water after kaolin rehydration decreases considerably the amount of TX-100 adsorption from 28.7 μmol.g−1 onto dehydrated kaolin to 23.4 μmol.g−1 onto rehydrated kaolin. The estimation of the number of statistical layers of water deposited on kaolin was observed to be about 7 to 9. The effect of type of solvents (heptane, cyclohexane and benzene) on the adsorption onto rehydrated kaolin revealed a reduction in the adsorbed quantity; the adsorbed amounts were found to be 28.7 μmol.g−1, 26.7 μmol.g−1 and 24.2 μmol.g−1 in heptane, cycloheptane and benzene phases, respectively. On the other hand, it was observed that a temperature increased from 20 °C to 35 °C and 45 °C negatively affects the adsorption of TX-100 onto dehydrated and/or hydrated kaolin in heptane medium.

Sand blasting was performed on 22MnB5 steel surface. This steel was stacked together with layers of unidirectional glass/polyamide-6 prepreg, followed by pressing in a hot press. Influenced parameters are pressure, temperature and time. 3D profilometer analysis was used to investigate the roughness profile on the surface of the steel generated by the sand blasting. The surface energy of the steel surface was calculated from a set of contact angles measured by three different liquids. To identify the optimal surface treatment, the variation of surface energy, flexural strength and roughness of the steel surface was determined as function of the surface treatment. Surface roughness (Ra of 1.08 μm), results indicate that increasing surface roughness leads to improvement in flexural modulus. The increase further leads to decrease in flexural modulus. In addition, the influence of surface energy and flexural strength on the impact damage behaviour was investigated too. The results showed that the sample with highest flexural modulus had the lowest impact-induced damage area.

Reciprocating sliding tests using a ball-on-plate tribometer under differentes applied loads 3, 7 and 10 N load and anodic potentials were applied to evaluate the effect of applied lad and the effect of Nb and Mo elements on tribocorrosion behaviors of samples. Results showed that, Ti-Nb exhibited better anticorrosive properties than Ti-Mo. Under tribological action the nanostructured both of alloys showed similar friction coefficient, while Ti-Nb present lower tendency to corrosion compared to Ti-Mo. Furthermore, Nb diffusion increased the repassivation rate with respect to Ti-Mo surfaces due to its stable passive film. Due to the high chemical reaction rate in β-type Ti-15Mo alloy as compared to Ti-15Nb. The β- Ti-15Nb showed lower volume loss, lower friction coefficient values and exhibited better corrosion resistance during tribocorrosion tests than Ti-15Mo. Prevailing electrochemical conditions between -1 and 2 V influences the wear accelerated corrosion by increasing it with the applied potential and slightly increases the mechanical wear. Also, wear accelerated corrosion can be predicted by existing models as a function of electrochemical and mechanical parameters of the titanium alloys. However, considering biomedical applications, the β- Ti15 Mo and Ti15Nb alloys may be good candidates with low elastic modulus and without toxic alloying elements.

The SHS process, as a very fast and economically justified route of powder metallurgy, has distinctive features which impart special attributes to the resultant implant, facilitating its integration in terms of bio-mechanical/chemical compatibility. On the phenomenological level, the fact of high biocompatibility of porous SHS TiNi (PTN) material in vivo has been recognized and is not in dispute presently, but the rationale is somewhat disputable. The features of the SHS TiNi process led to a multifarious intermetallic Ti4Ni2(O,N,C)-based constituents in the amorphous-nanocrystalline superficial layer which entirely conceals the matrix and enhances the corrosion resistance of the unwrought alloy. In the current article, we briefly explore issues of the high biocompatibility level on which additional studies could be carried out, as well as recent progress and key fields of clinical application, yet allowing innovative solutions.

Wear tests were conducted under different applied loads of 2, 8, and 16 N. Experimental results indicated that the structural evolution and morphological changes of the milled alloys were sensitive to their molybdenum (Mo) content. The morphological characterization showed that the crystallite size and the particle size decreased with increasing Mo content (at.%) reaching the lowest values of 27 and 26 nm in the case of Ti-15Mo and Ti-20Mo, respectively. On the other hand, the coefficient of friction and wear rates were found to be decreasing with increasing Mo content.

A1 - Weiß, Sabine T1 - Microstructure and defect structure of Zr-1Nb alloy deep surface modified by high Intensity Ti Ion implantation T2 - MC Microscopy Conference, 01-05 September 2019, Berlin, Abstracts N2 - A deep surface modified TiZr layer was fabricated by high-intensity low-energy titanium ion implantation into zirconium alloy Zr-1Nb alloy with the various dose in the range of (5.4–9.56) × 1020 ion/cm2. The gradient distribution of titanium as well as vacancy type defects were analysed. The effects of ion implantation on microstructure, phase composition and elemental distribution of TiZr layer were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and glow-discharge optical emission spectroscopy, respectively. The results show the appearance of Zr-Ti intermetallic phases of different stoichiometry after Ti implantation. The intermetallic phases are transformed from both Zr0.7Ti0.3 and Zr0.5Ti0.5 to single Zr0.6Ti0.4 phase with the increase in the implantation dose. The depth of Ti penetration into the bulk of Zr increases from 6 to 13 μm with the implantation dose. The higher current density (170 mA/cm2) leads to the increase in the grain size and surface roughness. It was revealed that TiZr layer (~10 μm thickness) is represented by α′ + α(TiZr) lamellar microstructure with gradient distribution of Ti through the layer depth. Transmission electron microscopy was used for investigation of the physical basis of Ti diffusion and its influence on the evolution of the defect structure after surface modification. Furthermore, it was found that on the surface between substrate and implanted layer was found an amorphous layer, which occur as a result of further stress accumulations from the higher implantation doses.

The prepared samples were characterized using various apperatus such as X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and ball-on-plate type oscillating tribometer. Wear tests were conducted under different applied loads (2, 8 and 16 N). Structural results showed that the mean pore and crystallite size continuously decreased with increasing sintering temperature to reach the lowest values of 4 nm and 29 nm at 1373 K, respectively. The relative density of the sintered sample at 1373 K was as high as 97.0%. Moreover, a higher sintering temperature resulted in higher relative density, greater hardness and elastic modulus of the sample. It was observed that both the friction coefficient and wear rate were lower in the sample sintered at 1373 K which was attributed to the closed porosity.

There is an enormous range of possibilities for using structured sheet metals due to their better stability. However, the effective use of these materials as well as their implementation in production requires precise knowledge about specific properties of structured sheet metals. The aim of this work is to obtain new knowledge about stiffness and stability during the deformation of this material. The structured sheet metals were investigated by means of buckling tests. The steel type investigated is a commonly used deep-drawing steel DC04. Six types of structure arrangements were compared to non-structured (flat) specimens as a reference. The influence of the type of structure arrangement as well as the deformation speed on the mechanical properties was investigated.

Setif, Algeria, Abstracts book N2 - The osteoarthritis and degenerative diseases osteoporosis as well as trauma lead to the bone mechanical properties degradation due to absence of normal biological self healing processes or excessive loading [1–5]. These problems solution are artificial biomaterials, as surgical implantation of appropriate shapes helps restore function for the otherwise functionally compromised structures [1–5]. Biocompatibility is considered to be optimal once tissue neoformation and later function occurs around implantable devices [6]. The efficacy of biomaterials implants is determined mostly by their surface characteristics such as microstructure, surface morphology, composition and biological properties [2]. Aiming to develop alloys with better properties for orthopedic applications, the focus of the present research was to evaluate the effect of Zr at. % content on structural, mechanical and tribological properties of hot isostatically pressed Ti-25Nb-xZr (x = 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 at. %) alloys. The structural evolution, and mechanical properties of the nanostructured Ti-Nb-xZr alloys were evaluated using X-Ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope. The mechanical properties were performed using Vickers hardness and berkovich nanoindentation. Experimental results indicated that the structural evolution and morphological changes of the milled alloys were sensitive to their Zirconium (at. %) content. The morphological characterization showed that the crystallite size and the particle size decreased with increasing Zr content (at. %). As well, as the Zr was added to the Ti-25NbXZr system, there was a clear decrease in the Vickers hardness and young’s modulus. On the other hand, the coefficient of friction and wear rates were found to be decreasing with increasing Zr content.

Setif, Algeria, Abstracts book N2 - Le milieu médical est un perpétuel demandeur de biomatériaux compatibles surtout en orthopédie. Effectivement le nombre important d’arthroplasties effectuées chaque année ne cesse d’augmenter dans le monde, non seulement du fait vieillissement de la population (à partir de 65 ans), mais aussi de demandes de patients plus jeunes entre 45 ans et 55 ans. Actuellement, les composés à base de titane Ti sont largement utilisés comme des biomatériaux pour leur biocompatibilité, leur résistance à la corrosion et leur faible module d’élasticité. Le molybdène et le zirconium sont parmi les meilleurs éléments alliés parce qu’ils sont non toxiques et non allergiques et offrent d’excellentes propriétés. De plus,Le Zr peut augmenter la trempabilité et la résistance à la corrosion de l'alliage . Mo est un élément fort stabilisant pour la phase des alliages de titane et les alliages à base de Ti-Mo présentent des propriétés mécaniques adéquates compatibilité et bonne cyto-compatibilité . Par conséquent, le système Ti-Mo-Zr, qui a montré une bonnes performances et de magnifiques perspectives dans l’application de biomatériaux, a été intensivementétudié [1,2,3]. Cependant, les alliages de Ti largement utilisés, tels que les interstitiels extra-low (ELI) Ti-6Al-4V (wt.% en poids ), Ti- 5Al-2,5 Fe et Ti-6Al-7Nb, ont le risque de libérer de l'aluminium toxique (Al) et les Ions de vanadium (V) in vivo, ce qui peut causer des problèmes de santé, comme la maladie d’Alzheimer et la neuropathie[4].La métallurgie des poudres (MP), y compris la méthode de mixture des composants en poudre, qui consiste à fritter titane en poudre ou ses mélanges avec d’autres composants en poudre, est un procédé économique à moindre cout. La nanotechnologie est intervenue dans la structuration des biomatériaux à l’échelle nanométrique (entre1nmet 100 nm) par soucis d’amélioration des propriétés mécanique surtout le module de Young.

Since the irradiation angle into the specific material is determined not only by wedge design, but also by the speed of sound in both the wedge material and the tested object, the developer must take into account the speed of the wave propagation in a wedge material over the whole temperature range of transducers application. In this study we investigate the temperature dependence of the speed of longitudinal wave propagation in 10 different materials in the range from -200 °C to 400 °C. The investigated materials belong to different material classes (ceramics, glass, as well as ferrous and non-ferrous metals) and are all temperature-resistant up to at least 600 °C, and therefore applicable as wedge materials in an ultrasonic transducer for use at extreme temperatures.

The surface layers at a depth of up to 100 nm mainly consist of amorphous nanocrystalline intermetallic oxycarbonitrides Ti₄Ni₂(O,N,C) with nonmetallic inclusions of different structural variants and routes of origin. Fine-porous alloys were synthesized at ignition temperatures of 450-480 °C. A distinct feature of the surface of crystalline phases therein was shown to be a low degree of crystallinity (up to 40%) and presence of multifarious glass and cermet phases evident as NiSi₂, NaAlSiO (SO₄), SiO₂, MgSi₂, and CaCO₃. Conversely, large-pore alloys ignited at temperatures of 280-330 °C have a higher degree of crystallinity (up to 70%). An individually selected GIXRD technique and precision structural phase analysis are capable to determine a set of other superficial nonmetallic and cermet phases reported as CaTiO₃, Si (P2O₇), CaSiO₃, MgAl₂O₄, TiNiAl, as well as the Ti₃SiC₂MAX phase.

Open-Circuit Potential (OCP), friction coefficient, wear volume and wear rate were evaluated. The results revealed that Ti-15Nb alloy exhibited lower wear rate, lower friction coefficient and better corrosion resistance during tribocorrosion than the Ti-15Mo alloy. This can be attributed to the diffusion of Nb which increases the repassivation rate (formation of a protective layer) in the Ti-15Nb alloy. In contrast Ti-15Mo shows a significantly higher rate of chemical reaction.

X-ray diffraction analysis was used for the morphological characterization which indicated that the mean pore and crystallite size continuously decreased with increasing sintering temperature to reach the lowest values of 41 nm and 27.5 nm at 1100 °C, respectively. Moreover, the higher sintering temperature resulted in higher relative density, greater hardness and young’s modulus of the Ti-15Nb alloys. Wear tests were conducted using a ball-on-plate type Oscillating tribometer, under different applied loads (2, 8 and 16 N) to evaluate their tribological characterization. The wear rate and friction coefficient were lower at higher sintering temperature. This enhancement in tribological properties was attributed to a grain refinement. The Ti-15Nb alloys sintered at 1100 °C showed the best tribological performance.

Specifically, machine learning has been implemented in the fields of materials discovery, prediction of phase diagrams and material modelling. In this work, the application of machine learning to the traditional phenomenological flow stress modelling of the titanium aluminide (TiAl) alloy TNM-B1 (Ti-43.5Al-4Nb-1Mo-0.1B) is investigated. Three model types were developed, analyzed and compared; a physics-based phenomenological model (PM) originally developed for steel by Cingara and McQueen, a purely data-driven machine learning model (MLM), and a hybrid model (HM), which uses characteristic points predicted by a learning algorithm as input for the phenomenological model. The same amount of data was used to both fit the PM and train the MLM and HM. The models were analyzed and compared based on the accuracy of their predictions, development and computing time, and their ability to predict on interpolated and extrapolated inputs. The results revealed that for the same amount of experimental data, the MLM was more accurate than the PM. In addition, the MLM was better able to capture the characteristic peak stress in the TNM-B1 the flow curves, and could be developed and computed faster. Furthermore, the MLM was able to make realistic predictions for inputs outside the experimental data used for training. The HM showed comparable accuracy to the PM for the experimental conditions. However, the HM was able to produce a better fit for input conditions outside the training data.
