TY - CONF A1 - Beygi Nasrabadi, Hossein T1 - Digital representation of materials testing data for semantic web analytics: Tensile stress relaxation testing use case N2 - This study aims to represent an approach for transferring the materials testing datasets to the digital schema that meets the prerequisites of the semantic web. As a use case, the tensile stress relaxation testing method was evaluated and the testing datasets for several copper alloys were prepared. The tensile stress relaxation testing ontology (TSRTO) was modeled following the test standard requirements and by utilizing the appropriate upper-level ontologies. Eventually, mapping the testing datasets into the knowledge graph and converting the data-mapped graphs to the machine-readable Resource Description Framework (RDF) schema led to the preparation of the digital version of testing data which can be efficiently queried on the web.

It is very widely used for exhaust gas turbo-charger compressor wheels. Due to long operating times, high cycle fatigue (HCF) and material aging under the influence of temperatures up to 230 °C is particularly relevant for the wheels. The wheels are typically milled from round wrought blanks. From such round blanks, different testpieces are extracted and a comprehensive series of HCF tests is conducted at room temperature. The tests investigate the materials fatigue performance in the T61 state for two load-ratios, namely R = -1 and R = 0.1. Additionally, two overaged material states are tested, accounting for the aging process the material undergoes during long operating times at high temperatures. The experimental results are evaluated and compared to each other. Furthermore, the design process of notched specimens is presented. With the notched specimens, it is aimed to quantify the notch sensitivity of the material. Relating thereto, two potential model parameters for the fatigue lifetime model are introduced.

The data were internally audited as BAM reference data. By reference data, we mean research data that have been measured (or simulated) to a particularly high standard and are well-documented concerning material processing, testing, and data evaluation. The datasets include information on processing routes and parameters, heat treatments, grain size, specimen dimensions, weight, and Young’s and shear modulus along with their measurement uncertainty. The processing routes and measuring methods are described in detail. The data structure is shown in Fig. 1. The datasets were generated in an accredited testing lab and are hosted in the open data repository Zenodo [2-4]. The comprehensive documentation of the metadata, which is linked to the intended usages of the dataset, and the sharing in a machine-readable structured format in an open repository represents an important step towards fulfilling the FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, Reusable) principles. The publication of a data descriptor article increases the visibility of the dataset in the targeted community.

The overaged condition (T61 followed by 1000 h/230 °C) was investigated in load-controlled tests with a stress ratio of R = -1 and two test frequencies (0.2 Hz, 20 Hz) at room temperature and at 230°C, respectively. An increase in the test temperature reduces fatigue life, whereby this effect is more pronounced at lower stress amplitudes. Decreasing the test frequency in tests at high temperatures further reduces the service life.

In this respect, the quality assurance of processes and output data as well as the interoperability between applications following FAIR principles are to be ensured. For storage, processing, and querying of data in contextualized form, Semantic Web technologies (SWT) are used as they allow for machine-actionable and human-readable knowledge representations needed for data management, retrieval, and (re)use. The collaborative project ‘platform MaterialDigital’ (PMD) aims to solve digitalization tasks and implement digital solutions in the field of MSE in a prototypical manner. Therefore, the establishment of a virtual material data space and the systematization of the handling of hierarchical, process-dependent material data are focused. In this respect, selected MSE methods are semantically represented which are supposed to serve as best practice examples with respect to knowledge representation and the creation of knowledge graphs used for material data. Accordingly, this presentation shows the efforts taken within PMD to store data in accordance with a testing standard compliant semantic representation of a tensile test of metals at room temperature (ISO 6892-1:2019-11). A semantic link of the corresponding tensile test ontology (TTO) and data leads to enhanced data useability and interoperability. The PMD core ontology (PMDco), developed in PMD and used as mid-level ontology in TTO, is also presented briefly. Moreover, as a best practice example, the acquisition of tensile test data with subsequent generation of knowledge graph data by semantic interconnection using TTO was realized by applying an electronic laboratory notebook (ELN). Corresponding tensile tests were performed by undergraduate MSE students at the Technical University of Darmstadt. The resulting data pipeline, also illustrated in the presentation, enabled a fully-fledged digitally integrated experimental procedure, the approach of which may be transferred to other test series and experiments. In addition to facilitating the acquisition, analysis, processing, and (re)usability of data, this also raises the awareness of students with respect to data structuring and semantic technologies in terms of education and training.

The LCF tests were performed between room temperature and 600 °C. A hot‑rolled 316L variant was tested as a reference. The mechanical response is characterized by strain-life curves, a Coffin‑Manson‑Basquin fitting, and cyclic deformation curves. The damage and deformation mechanisms are studied with X-ray computed tomography, optical and electron microscopy. The PBF‑LB/M/316L exhibits lower fatigue lives at lower strain amplitudes. The crack propagation is mainly transgranular. The solidification cellular structure seems to be the most relevant underlying microstructural feature determining the cyclic deformation behavior.

For example, in age-hardenable aluminium alloys, the strengthening mechanism is based on the controlled formation of nanometre-sized precipitates, which represent obstacles to dislocation movement and consequently increase the strength. Precise tuning of the material microstructure is thus crucial for optimal mechanical behaviour under service condition of a component. Therefore, analysis of the microstructure, especially the precipitates, is essential to determine the optimum parameters for the interplay of material and heat treatment. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is utilized to identify precipitate types and orientations in the first step. Dark-field imaging (DF-TEM) is often used to image the precipitates and thereafter quantify their relevant dimensions. Often, these evaluations are still performed by manual image analysis, which is very time-consuming and to some extent also poses reproducibility problems. Our work aims at a semantic representation of an automatable digital approach for this material specific characterization method under adaption of FAIR data practices. Based on DF-TEM images of different precipitation states of a wrought aluminium alloy, the modularizable, digital workflow of quantitative analysis of precipitate dimensions is described. The integration of this workflow into a data pipeline concept will also be discussed. Using ontologies, the raw image data, their respective contextual information, and the resulting output data of the quantitative image analysis can be linked in a triplestore. Publishing the digital workflow and the ontologies will ensure data reproducibility. In addition, the semantic structure enables data sharing and reuse for other applications and purposes, demonstrating interoperability. T2 - FEMS EUROMAT 2023 CY - Frankfurt a.

N2 - In diesem Projekt wird die Aluminiumlegierung EN AW-2618A (2618A) untersucht, welche sehr verbreitet in Verdichterrädern von Abgasturboladern zum Einsatz kommt. Hochzyklische Ermüdung und Werkstoffalterung bei Temperaturen von bis zu 230 °C ist bei Abgasturboladern aufgrund der langen Einsatzzeiten besonders relevant. Die Verdichterräder werden typischerweise aus geschmiedeten Rohlingen gefräst. Aus entsprechenden Rohlingen werden im Rahmen des Projekts eine Vielzahl von Proben mit unterschiedlichen Geometrien entnommen. Die Proben werden unter verschiedenen Prüfbedingungen in hochzyklischen Ermüdungsversuchen bei Raumtemperatur getestet. Zum einen wird das Ermüdungsverhalten des Werkstoffs im T61-Zustand für die zwei Belastungsverhältnisse R = -1 und R = 0,1 untersucht. Zum anderen werden zwei überalterte Materialzustände getestet. Damit soll dem Alterungsprozess Rechnung getragen werden, den das Material während langer Betriebszeiten bei hohen Temperaturen durchläuft. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden evaluiert und miteinander verglichen. Darüber hinaus wird der Entwurfsprozess von gekerbten Probengeometrien dokumentiert. Die gekerbten Proben sollen Aufschluss über die Kerbempfindlichkeit des Werkstoffs geben. In diesem Zusammenhang werden zwei mögliche Modellparameter für das zu entwickelnde Lebensdauermodell vorgestellt. Abschließend wird das erweiterte Forschungsdatenmanagement des Projekts beleuchtet und seine Vorteile für die nachhaltige Nutzung in materialwissenschaftlichen und ingenieurtechnischen Anwendungen aufgezeigt.

Metal coating the copper particles has been investigated in this research as an approach for increasing the laser absorption of the feedstock and processing of highly dense copper alloys with low-power lasers. CuNi3SiCr powders were coated with the thin and uniform metallic shells of Nb (60 ± 10 nm) using a rotating Direct Current Magnetron Sputtering Physical Vapor Deposition (DCMS-PVD) reactor. Using such metal-coated particles, copper parts of 98.14% relative density were printed with the PBF-LB/M parameters of 200 W laser powers, 800 mm/s scanning speed, 55 µm hatch distance, and 25 µm layer thickness. The X-ray computed tomography (XCT), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) investigations show that partial oxidation of Nb-coated particles is responsible for the development of lack-of-fusion holes between the printed layers. An approach based on the nanoindentation and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) measurements was utilized to evaluate the correlation between the crystallographic orientations and mechanical properties of the produced samples. In this approach, arrays of indentations (Fig. 1a) were applied on four planes of the samples trimmed in different directions. The EBSD images of these indentation regions reveal the location of each indent in colored grains of different orientations. Here, a microstructure with columnar grains and a high texture intensity of 9.2 has been observed in the plane perpendicular to the building direction. This plane comprises a mixture of red-, green-, and blue-colored grains, while the measured average hardness (H) and indentation modulus (Er) were increased from red grains to green and blue ones, respectively (Fig. 1b). Eventually, the nanoindentation load-displacement curves of [001], [101], and [111] grains (Fig. 1c) were utilized for modeling the elastoplastic features of the produced samples.

In contrast to previous studies, the low-strain regime is also illuminated, which approaches flexible operation in a power plant with start/stop cycles. At all strain amplitudes, the material performance is characterized by continuous cyclic softening, which is retarded in tests at lower strains but reaches similar magnitudes in the course of testing. In the investigated temperature range, the phase angle does not affect fatigue life in continuous experiments, whereas the IP condition is more detrimental in tests with dwells. Fractographic analyses indicate creep-dominated and fatigue-dominated damage for IP and OP, respectively. Analyses of the (micro)hardness distribution in the tested specimens suggest an enhanced microstructural softening in tests with dwell times for the low- but not for the high-strain regime. To rationalize the obtained fatigue data, the fracturemechanics-based DTMF concept, which was developed for TMF life assessment of ductile alloys, was applied. It is found that the DTMF parameter correlates well with the measured fatigue lives, suggesting that subcritical growth of cracks (with sizes from a few microns to a few millimeters) governs failure in the investigated range of strain amplitudes.

The volume fraction of the nm-scale α-Mn particles increased with applied strain, however small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) indicated that the majority of manganese remained in solution even after 10 HPT rotations, indicating that the reaction progress is still limited by the diffusivity of Mn. Analysis of the precipitate size distribution determined that the mean particle size did not increase over the course of HPT. This, in combination with the precipitate size distribution suggested that precipitate growth was subject to interfacial rather than diffusional control.

The vastness of the compositional and structural space in CCMats propels the field into an expanding exploratory state. To reconcile functional and structural performance across this immense parameter space remains an open challenge. This Perspective evaluates the opportunities and challenges associated with harnessing chemical complexity across a broad spectrum of applications, such as hydrogen storage, ionic conductors, catalysis, magnetics, dielectrics, semiconductors, optical materials, and multifunctional structural systems. It is delineated how three central design strategies: targeted substitution (SUB), defect engineering (DEF), and diversity management (DIV) enable the reconciliation of high functional performance with long-term structural stability and environmental responsibility. Advances in computational thermodynamics, microstructure simulations, machine learning, and multimodal characterization are accelerating the exploration and optimization of CCMats, while robust data infrastructures and automated synthesis workflows are emerging as essential tools for navigating their complex compositional space. By fostering cross-disciplinary knowledge transfer and embracing data-driven design, CCMats are poised to deliver next-generation materials solutions that address urgent technological, energy, and environmental demands.

By fully automating the processing steps for seven different materials from five representative, completely different classes of nano- and advanced materials (metal, metal oxide, silica, metal organic framework, and core–shell particles) that follow different reaction mechanisms, we demonstrate the great versatility and flexibility of the platform. The system also exhibits high modularity and adaptability in terms of reaction scales and incorporates in-line characterization measurement of hydrodynamic diameter, zeta potential, and optical properties (absorbance, fluorescence). We discuss the excellent reproducibility of the various materials synthesized on the platform in terms of particle size and size distribution, and the adaptability and modularity that allows access to a diverse set of nanomaterial classes. We also present several key aspects of the central backend that orchestrates the (parallelized) syntheses workflows. One key feature is the resource management or “traffic control” for scheduling and executing parallel reactions in a multi-threaded environment. Another is the interface with data analysis algorithms from in-line, at-line, and off-line measurements. Here, we will give examples of how automatic image segmentation of electron microscopy images with the help of AI can be used for reducing the “data analysis bottleneck” from an off-line measurement. We will also discuss various machine learning (ML) algorithms that are currently implemented in the backend and can be used for ML-guided, closed-loop material optimization in our SDL. Lastly, we will show our recent efforts in making the workflow generation on SDLs more user-friendly by using large language models to generate executable workflows automatically from synthesis procedures given in natural language and user-friendly graphical user interfaces based on node editors that also allow for knowledge graph extraction from the workflows. In this context, we are currently also working on a common description or ontology for representing the process steps and parameters of the workflows, which will greatly facilitate the semantic description and interoperability of workflows between different SDL hardware and software platforms.

This review highlights the capabilities enabled by FSC for studying a wide range of materials under extreme thermal conditions, including polymers, pharmaceuticals, metallic glasses, nanocomposites, and hydrogels. By employing ultrafast heating and cooling rates, FSC allows for the suppression of crystallization, resolution of weak transitions, and analysis of thermally labile or size-limited samples. The technique is particularly valuable for probing glass transitions, relaxation phenomena, and phase behavior in systems with complex morphologies or confined geometries. Case studies demonstrate the use of FSC in characterizing vitrification, physical aging, and interfacial dynamics, as well as its application in emerging fields such as additive manufacturing, supramolecular systems, and neuromorphic materials. Together, these examples underscore the role that FSC plays in advancing the understanding of structure-property relationships across diverse material classes.

In this study, we focus on the synthesis of ZrV2O7, a material known for its negative thermal expansion properties. We investigate the influence of solid-state and wet chemistry synthesis methods on the purity and homogeneity of ZrV2O7 samples. Our findings indicate that different synthesis methods significantly impact the material's characteristics. The solid-state reaction provided high-purity material through extended milling time and repeated calcination cycles, while the sol-gel reaction enabled a “near-atomic” level of mixing and, therefore, homogenous phase-pure ZrV2O7. We confirmed purity via X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, highlighting differences between phase-pure and multiphase ceramics. These analytical techniques allowed us to distinguish subtle differences in the structure of the material. Based on ab initio simulated phonon data, we were able to interpret the Raman spectra and visualise Raman active atom vibrations. We show that phase purity enables the unbiased characterisation of material properties such as negative thermal expansion.
