TY - CONF A1 - Suárez Ocano, Patricia T1 - Creep Properties of the Refractory Chemically Complex AlMo 0.5 NbTa 0.5 TiZr Alloy N2 - The development of refractory CCAs has been explored for potential use in high temperature applications. An example of this is the AlMo0.5NbTa0.5TiZr alloy, which resembles the well-known γ/γ’ microstructure in Ni-Base superalloys with cuboidal particles embedded in a continuous matrix. The aim of this work is to evaluate the alloy’s mechanical behavior under tension in the temperature range 800-1000°C, by applying creep tests under vacuum (excluding oxidation effects). Some little temperature influence on minimum creep rate @ 1000 and 1100 °C was found and at a first glance, and Norton plots shows that deformation is probably both diffusion and dislocation controlled. However, further work is needed to stablish deformation and degradation micro mechanisms in the studied creep regime.

T1 - Crystal orientation and elastic properties N2 - The elastic constants are the most basic mechanical properties of a material and are needed for any structural analysis of a component. For example, they have a major influence on the eigenfrequencies of vibrating parts. Single crystals of Ni-base superalloys are strongly anisotropic, which means that the observed properties are orientation dependent. Tensor algebra is then required to mathematically formulate the elastic properties and their relations to the crystal orientation. Hence, this chapter first summarizes some basic definitions and calculation rules for Rotation matrices, including the definition of the Euler angles, which are most commonly used to define the relative orientations of the crystal and the component. Parts of this chapter closely follow the lines of the excellent exposition of the topic by Olschewski.

In contrast to the more phenomenological models discussed in the next chapter, these models use dislocation densities as internal variables. Obvious advantages are that the computed densities can be compared to TEM observations and the Deformation mechanisms can be easier translated into mathematical equations.

T1 - Crystallographic challenges in corrosion research N2 - High-temperature corrosion is a widespread problem in various industries. As soon as a hot and reactive gas (CO2, O2, H2O, SO2, NOx, etc.) is in contact with a solid, physico-chemical processes at the surface and interfaces lead to material degradation. The processes are dynamic and controlled by thermodynamic and kinetic boundary conditions. Whether a reaction product is protective or not depends on various factors, such as chemical composition of the solid and the reactive media, surface treatment as well as diffusion and transport paths of cations and anions. Resulting chemical and structural inhomogeneities with the corrosion layers are characterized by off stoichiometry within cationic and anionic sub lattices. The competitive processes can be studied by various techniques of applied crystallography. This chapter gives an overview on the challenges of chemical-structural Analysis of reaction products by crystallographic methods such as X-ray diffraction and X-ray near-edge structure spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy electron backscatter diffraction (SEM-EBSD) for corrosion science.

Strain controlled push/pull tests were performed between room temperature and 600 °C. The PBF‑LB/M/316L exhibits an initial cyclic hardening, followed by a cyclic softening. The grade of softening decreases (i) with increasing test temperature and (ii) after a partial dissolution of its dislocation substructure through heat treatment. The deformation behavior and its dependency on test temperature and heat-treated/microstructural condition are attributed to the slip character and related changes. With either a partially dissolved dislocation substructure or increasing test temperature the material exhibits typical wavy slip characteristics. In the opposite case, the deformation mechanism seems to be rather planar dislocation slip as the formation of slip planes spanning through entire grains was observed, seemingly acting as pathways of easy dislocation movement.

Introduction A normally unwanted process that can arise when converging an electron beam onto, e.g. microparticles, has been called "damage induced by electric field" (DIEF) [1]. By DIEF, the convergent electron beam (CEB) imparts a high amount of energy to the microparticle locally and strongly interacts with its atoms. At a specific current density J, which can be controlled by the convergence angle α, the irradiated material begins to transform. The phenomenon of expelling nanomaterial from microparticles under the influence of a convergent electron beam (CB) in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) has been largely studied [2]. Several types of nanoparticles (NPs) have been observed for different metallic materials and metal oxides after specific CB protocols (P) in the TEM. Thus, DIEF can be used as a promising synthesis method controlled changes of micrometric material to create new nanometric material compositions and morphologies. While these reactions have been observed in situ at the high acceleration voltages associated with TEM, it remains unclear whether the SEM can also be used to fabricate NPs via DIEF. In contrast to TEM there is no possibility to statically convert the electron beam to a range of α to reach the needed J as in TEM. Instead, the scanning parameters and the magnification can be manipulated so as to find an integrated J. Considering that the scanning electron microscope (SEM) is easier to use, more accessible and cheaper than a TEM, here we explore the possibility to transfer the concepts of DIEF known to operate in the TEM for in situ NP generation SEM. 2. Objectives The main goal is to determine whether DIEF can be translated to the SEM perform to controlled in situ fabrication of nanoparticles from microparticles, using gold microparticles on amorphous SiO substrate as precursors. We determine what experimental parameters must be taken into account to create SEM-based CBPs for NP creation in the SEM with these materials. 3. Materials & methods Gold microparticles with diameter of around 1 to 3 µm were deposited on electron transparent amorphous SiO/SiO2 substrate. Using a convergent electron beam protocol (CBP) in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) at an acceleration voltage of 30 kV, the gold microparticles were irradiated until a production of NPs takes place as shown in figure 1. The beam current varied between 16 and 23 nA. 4. Results Depending on the CBP parameters, either only Au NPs or a mixture of Au and Si NPs are produced. The particle size ranges from a few nm up to 100 nm, and it depends on the distance of the NP to the initial position of the microparticle. Further beam parameters such as the dwell time, the effective irradiated volume and particle size determine whether NPs are produced or if the microparticles only are expelled from the substrate without reacting. 5. Conclusion The SEM can be used as an instrument for synthesizing nanomaterials via DIEF. Different CBP protocols can be applied for obtaining either gold nanoparticles or silicon + gold nanoparticles T2 - Microscopy Conference CY - Darmstadt, Germany DA - 26.02.2023 KW - Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) KW - Gold nanoparticles KW - Electron beam induced modification PY - 2023 AN - OPUS4-58261 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Weinel, Kristina T1 - Damage induced by electric field of microparticles in the electron microscope N2 - Damage induced by electric field (DIEF) that happens in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) when converging the electron beam (e-beam) on microparticles (MPs) can be used to synthesis new nanomaterial and nanomaterial compositions. The research questions are to clarify the limits and possibilities of the method regarding materials that can be produced, systems to which it is applicable and working beam parameters. Synthesis of nano-objects from microparticles using DIEF in TEM could be shown for different materials. Additionally, DIEF using the e-beam in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) can also be used to synthesis nano-objects. A deeper material analysis of this nano-objects was done using TEM and shows that the material of the nanoparticles (NPs) can be gold or/and silicon. Furthermore, the size of the NPs depends on the distance to the center of DIEF whereby the larger NPs are closer to the center. The areas of gold NPs are promising candidates for plasmonic or photonic devices for energy storage or transport.

The cost-intensive replacement outcomes lead to a high loss of earnings, and are one of the inhibitors of wind turbine production [1]. A potential repair alternative is to locally patch these areas of the blades with adhesively bonded structural repairs. However, the effects of such repair methods of the outer shell region on the structural integrity of the rotor blades are still largely unknown, and are thus investigated in this project. The shell components of rotor blades are made of FRP composite material sandwiching a lightweight core, often a rigid foam or Balsa wood. The repair methods involve replacing the lost load path with a new material that is joined to the parent structure [2]. Repairs in this project focus on the scarf method, which allow for a smoother load distribution across the joint, aiming to study the damage mechanism of glass FRP scarf repairs for wind turbine blade shell applications. Namely, the source and path of the damage initiation and propagation, role of the interface between parent and patch material, and the role of the fiber orientation mismatch at this interface are examined. Biaxial ±45° and 0/90° FRP specimens are produced with the vacuum-assisted resin infusion (VARI) process using E-glass non-crimp fabric. The patch layers are then joined using VARI with a scarf ratio of 1:50, using glass FRP fabric with half the areal weight of the parent side to allow for better drapability. The methods and practices in specimen production are based on common industry practice in rotor blade shell manufacturing and repairs. The specimens are tested under uniaxial tensile load, during which they are periodically monitored for damage onset. A comparison of the ±45° and 0/90° specimens allows for an understanding of the role of a highly mismatching fiber orientation in the transition zone between parent and patch material on the failure mechanism of the scarf joint. Although failure in both orientations begins as delamination at the joint edge, the difference in the mechanisms at play in the two different specimen types leads ultimately to different fracture paths. Namely, in the inter fiber failure mechanism of the ±45° specimens, the higher interlaminar strength compared to the intralaminar strength of the laminate leads to intralaminar failure of the ±45° scarf joint specimens. Alternatively, the competition in the 0/90° specimens lies between the interlaminar strength and fiber failure strength, and here we experience failure primarily across the scarf joint length. The scarf joint in the 0/90° specimens disrupts the continuity of the load-carrying 0° layers, directing the failure path to remain primarily along the scarf joint. Experimental results are compared to finite element analyses of scarf patch repairs on glass FRP sandwich specimens with the same respective layup orientations, where the damage initiation regions are identified and correlated to fiber orientation, serving as a bridge to future work which will experimentally examine the scarf repair patches on sandwich shell specimens.

The resistance to environmental stress cracking (ESC) of the material is evaluated using the time to failure of the specimen in an aqueous solution of a detergent [2, 3]. Usually specimens made of sheets with isotropic material properties, manufactured by hot pressing, are employed in order to obtain intrinsic properties of the material in terms of ESC failure. In contrast, the processes used in manufacturing to form containers and pipes, such as extrusion blow molding or extrusion, impose anisotropic properties to the material. These are mostly due to a microstructural orientation (polymer chains or crystallites) [4]. Furthermore, the different cooling conditions significantly affect the size distribution of crystallites as well as the overall morphology. It is therefore essential to understand the influence of process-induced material characteristics on failure due to ESC. A large number of studies on material properties as a function of microstructural preferential orientation have already been conducted [5-7]. However, effects on ESC as the major failure mechanism of containers and pipes are still rather unexplored [8, 9]. The most important factor is whether primarily intramolecular high-strength covalent bonds or the substantially weaker intermolecular van der Waals forces are predominantly loaded. In addition to the widely established classification by time to failure, the strain or crack opening displacement (COD) provides valuable information about the evolution and progression of damage as a function of time [10, 11]. Optical strain measurement using digital image correlation allows the differences in COD for isotropic and different angles of orientation of anisotropic specimens to be discussed. Also, a post-fracture surface analysis provides clarification on the craze-crack mechanism of the ESC. These different ESC-related properties of extruded and hot-pressed specimens have been investigated at different environmental medium temperatures and different initial stresses to provide a broad characterization of the fracture behavior of PE-HD.

Manufacturing defects, surface roughness, microstructural features, short and long crack fatigue propagation, residual stresses and applied loads can be taken into consideration in a fracture mechanics-based fatigue assessment. Many aspects are crucial to the reliable component life prediction. Among those a prominent role is played by an accurate measurement and modelling of the short crack fatigue behavior, and reliable statistical characterization of defects and residual stresses. This work aims at addressing the issues related to both experimental testing, fatigue and fatigue crack propagation, and fracture mechanics-based modelling of fatigue lives.

The AlMo0.5NbTa0.5TiZr refractory superalloy was characterized in the cast and annealed condition (1400 °C for 24 h) in order to measure grain size and to identify and measure the size and area fraction of the phases present. The raw data of this article include X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, microstructural characterization by scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM), and elemental analysis by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). XRD includes the determination of phases and the lattice parameters (A2, B2, and hexagonal structure). Microstructural analysis by scanning and transmission electron microscopy includes (1) identification of composition, size, and volume fraction of the present phases and (2) determination of grain size. Based on these experimental data, it is possible to identify similarities and discrepancies with the data calculated using the CALPHAD method for the alloy under study in Ref. [1] , which provides the basis for better and more efficient development of reliable databases.

Current processes for the production of glasses with improved properties are usually very cost- and energy-intensive due to the low degree of automation and are subject to long development cycles. The use of robotic synthesis processes in combination with self-learning machines is intended to overcome these problems in the long term. The development of new types of glass can then not only be accelerated considerably, but also be achieved with much less effort. In this talk, data generation via a robotic high-throughput glass melting system is presented, which should be the experimental basis for the ontology developed within the project GlasDigital.

By Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing, parts were built both without defects and with typical defects intentionally introduced. These defects were investigated and confirmed by industrial X-ray Computed Tomography. Alternative inexpensive methods were applied afterwards on the parts such as weighing, volume determination by Archimedes method and gas permeability measurement. The results showed, that defects resulting in around 20% of change in volume and mass could be separated from parts free of defects by determination of mass or volume. Minor defects were not detectable as they were in the range of process-related fluctuations. Permeability measurement did not allow to safely identify parts with defects. The measurement methods investigated can be easily integrated in AM process chains to support quality control.

Three innovative approaches will be introduced to overcome this problem: 1. Layer wise slurry deposition: The use of water based ceramic slurries as feedstock for the additive manufacture of ceramics has many advantages which are not fully exploit yet. In the layerwise slurry deposition (LSD) process a slurry with no or low organic content is repetitively spread as thin layers on each other by means of a doctor blade. During the deposition, the ceramic particles settle on the previously deposited and dried material to form thin layers with a high packing density (55-60%). The LSD therefore shares aspects both of tape casting and slip casting. The LSD differentiates from the classical powder-based AM layer deposition, which typically achieves with a flowable coarse grained powder a low packing density (35-50%) only, consequently hindering the ability of sintering ceramic parts to full density. The LSD is coupled with the principles of selective laser sintering (SLS) or binder jetting, to generate novel processes which take advantage of the possibility of achieving a highly dense powder-bed. 2. Laser induced slip casting: Contrary to the LSD process, which requires drying of each individual layer, the direct interaction of ceramic slurries with intense laser radiation, for the laser induced slip casting (LIS), is a promising approach for the additive manufacture of voluminous parts. 3. Gas flow assisted powder deposition: By the application of a vacuum pump a gas flow is realized throughout the powder bed. This gas flow stabilizes the powder bed and results into an enhanced flowability and packing density of the powder during layer deposition.

The former is generally ascribed to the structural gradient between the grain and GB. While GB segregation may be accompanied by chemical and structural variations, clear insights about the GB’s thermodynamic phase behaviour upon coupling between its chemistry and structure is lacking. Using the CALPHAD integrated density-based phase field model, we study the co-evolution of GB’s structure and segregation in Fe-Mn alloys. We found that the GB segregation transition is amplified if its structure can respond to chemical variation. Additionally, the coupling between GB structural and segregation evolution was found to enable co-existence of the spinodally formed low- and high-Mn phases within the GB. In the light of atomistic simulations, we expand on investigating the correlation between the parameters that characterise the GB density map with GB properties.

The mechanical and functional properties of these materials can be influenced either negatively or positively by the presence of grain boundaries (GBs). These properties are interconnected with the structure, chemistry, or a combination of both (referred to as chemo-structure) at the GB. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of GBs, and their associated phenomena is key to tuning these materials properties for desired applications. Nevertheless, the intricate and unique characteristics of GBs impose constraints on their general descriptions in existing models designed for studying and understanding them. In this dissertation, a comprehensive tool, the CALPHAD-integrated density-based phase-field (DPF) model \cite{darvishikamachali2020model}, that harnesses atomic-scale GB characteristics, is employed and extended to reveal a deeper understanding of the GB structure, chemistry, chemo-structural coupling and their potential contributions to GB phenomena such as GB structural (and/or chemo-structural) transitions and liquid metal embrittlement. Although GBs possess distinctive crystallographic properties that render them unique and individualistic, it is important to note that they cannot exist independently; rather, they are made of the same constituents as the corresponding bulk material. To this end, the DPF model uses a continuous atomic density field ($\rho$), derived from atomistic simulations, to characterize the GB with reference to its corresponding homogeneous bulk (grain interior). This perspective allows the DPF model to approximate the GB free energy functional based on available bulk thermodynamic data. The DPF model has been utilized to investigate a variety of systems, form unary to multi-component systems \cite{kamachali2024giant,darvishikamachali2020model,darvishikamachali2020segregation,wang2021density,li2020grain,wang2021incorporating,zhou2021spinodal}. Among several novelties in the elucidation of the thermodynamics and kinetics of GBs, the DPF model has shown that GBs can have their own miscibility gap. It further reveals a temporal co-evolution of low and high segregation levels at the GB, which can act as precursor states for the formation of new phases \cite{kwiatkowskidasilva2018phase, kwiatkowskidasilva2019thermodynamics}. In the recent publication on Fe-Mn \cite{darvishikamachali2020segregation} and in various other works \cite{kamachali2024giant,darvishikamachali2020model,darvishikamachali2020segregation,wang2021density,li2020grain,wang2021incorporating,zhou2021spinodal, ikeda2023segregation, ahmadian2023interstitial} of the DPF model, the variation of atomic density field was allowed normal to the GB plane. At the GB plane, the in-plane GB density $\rho^{GB}$ was treated as a constant average value, representing its intrinsic dependence on the GB nature and misorientation. Although this assumption provides a useful simplification in studying GB phenomena, it does have the drawback of overlooking the significance of the in-plane structure variation. This seems to be particularly central in the view of experimental observations that confirm relatively stable grain boundary composition fluctuation \cite{darvishikamachali2020segregation}. In this thesis, the significance and impact of the atomic structure of GBs on their thermodynamics is investigated. This is achieved in two ways: On one hand, by extending the CALPHAD-integrated density-based free energy functional to account for structural degrees of freedom of GBs, and on the other hand, by deducing and linking density-related GB properties to the GB structure through the results of atomistic simulation of the GBs. Naturally, the structure (atomic density) within the GB plane fluctuates. This variation may also be linked to changes in composition due to solute segregation at the GB. While the fact that the GB structure can undergo transitions (referred to as complexions) \cite{frolov2015segregation, cantwell2020grain, cantwell2014grain} is not entirely new, the quantitative measurements of co-existing GB phases are scarce. Recently, instances were reported where the coexistence of two in-plane GB phases was revealed through the application of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and atomistic simulation \cite{frommeyer2022dual, meiners2020observations}. To this end, the potential of GB structural variation within the DPF model is introduced in this thesis, where the GB in-plane density $\rho^{GB}$ is described as a field, that can vary both in time and space. This extension enables the in-plane GB density $\rho^{GB}$ to evolve and exhibit two distinct low-energy states, denoted as $\rho^{GB} = \rho_1$ and $\rho^{GB} = \rho_2$, where $\rho_2 > \rho_1$. Separating these two structural states is an in-plane line defect. This way, the model allows the studies of the co-evolution between the chemical and structural states of the GB. As a proof of concept and benchmark study, the extended-DPF model is implemented for studying Fe-Mn system. The results show that the GB structure's capacity to respond to chemical variations, as incorporated in the DPF model, enhances the Mn segregation transition at the GB, even in the absence of any alterations to the GB structure. When the GB structure undergo changes (or is non-uniform), the model reveals a coupling between the GB structure and chemical evolution. The ability of the GB structure to change allows the coexistence of spinodally formed low- and high-Mn phases within the GB during segregation transition. The acquired equilibrium segregation isotherms provides insight into the range of alloy compositions where these GB phases remain stabilised. Moreover, the observations indicate that the tendency of the GB to undergo a structural transition (change) is associated with the energy of the in-plane line defect, between low- and high-density domains within the GB plane. The extended-DPF model is further applied to Zn-coated advanced high strength steels (Fe-Zn systems), where Zn segregation to the GB is known to cause severe performance degradation due to liquid metal embrittlement \cite{razmpoosh2021pathway, ikeda2022early, bhattacharya2018liquid}. The effect of GB type and its chemo-structural coupling on Zn segregation is investigated. The results showed a sharp Zn segregation that is strongly influenced by the nature of the GB itself, as well as the coupling between its chemistry and structure. Additionally, GB phase diagrams were constructed across a wide range of alloy compositions and temperatures. The impact of the GB type and chemo-structural coupling on the miscibility gap of GBs is discussed. The DPF model's ability to incorporate atomic-scale characteristics into the construction of Gibbs free energies at the mesoscale ensures it retains key physical insights when predicting microstructure properties. To this end, a robust investigation of the model’s parameters and outputs in comparison to atomistic simulations of GBs is presented. This not only serves as a gauge for the models reliability, but also provide a new framework in establishing an atomistically-informed density-based description of GBs. First, by examining a large dataset of GBs in BCC-Fe and -Mo from atomistic simulations, a connection between their discrete atomic structure and the continuous atomic density function $\rho$ is established. This is achieved by a systematic coarse-graining approach wherein an atomsitically-obtained density function (delta function) is substituted with a normalised Gaussian function, so that, a smooth and continuous atomic density profile in real space can be obtained, where the minimum is the average atomic density at the GB plane $\rho^{GB}$. The investigation revealed a linear proportional relationship between the GB excess free volume and $\rho^{GB}$. This correlation simplifies the computation of the excess free volume as the integration over the portion of the density profile where the atomic density is less than one. Furthermore, the GB energies calculated by atomistic simulations revealed a correlation with $\rho^{GB}$ for certain classification of GB types, therefore enhancing the model's predictive accuracy. Concurrently, the atomic-scale characteristics of GBs can be further harnessed in the DPF models by replacing the simple functional form of the potential energy as given in the original DPF model formulation with a material specific interatomic potential (expressed as a function of the atomic density $\rho$) from molecular dynamic simulations. This way, a reliable prediction of the atomic density gradient energy coefficient for mesoscale simulations can be obtained.

In this talk, we present a density-based thermodynamic concept to describe defects based on available bulk thermodynamic data. Here dealing with grain boundaries (GBs), we apply this concept to compute GB (phase) diagram. Applications to segregation engineering of GBs in bulk and nanocrystalline alloys will be presented. We further develop this model to include the effect of elastic interactions due to atom size mismatch and obtain the corresponding GB (phase) diagram for the ternary Al-Cu-Li system.

In such packages, three-dimensional circuitry is generated by combination of structured and metallized ceramic layers by means of tape casting and multilayer technology. During development and for quality assurance in manufacturing, characterization of integrity, deformation, and positioning of the inner metal features is necessary. Visualization with high resolution and material contrast is needed. Robot-assisted 3D-materialography is a useful technique to characterize such multimaterial structures. In that, many sections of the specimen are polished and imaged automatically. A three-dimensional representation of the structure is created by digital combination of the image stack. A quasi non-destructive approach is to perform X-ray computer tomography (CT) with different beam energies. The energies are chosen to achieve a good imaging of either the metal features, or the ceramic matrix of the structure. The combination of the respective tomograms results in a high contrast representation of the entire structure. Both methods were tested to characterize Ag and Ag/Pd conductors in a ceramic multilayer package. The results were compared in terms of information content, effort, and applicability of the methods.

E.g., graphite arrangements in lamellar gray cast iron have complex geometries, and the same is true for additively manufactured materials and three-dimensional conductive path structures. Some can be visualized using tomographic methods, but some cannot be due to weak contrast and/or lack of resolution when analyzing macroscopic objects. Classic metallography can help but must be expanded to the third dimension. The method of reconstructing three-dimensional structures from serial metallographic sections surely is not new. However, the effort required to manually assemble many individual sections into image stacks is very high and stands in the way of frequent application. For this reason, an automated, robot-supported 3D metallography system is being developed at BAM, which carries out the steps of repeated preparation and image acquisition on polished specimen. Preparation includes grinding, polishing and optionally etching of the polished surface. Image acquisition comprises autofocused light microscopic imaging at several magnification levels. The image stacks obtained are then pre-processed, segmented, and converted into 3D models, which in the result appear like microtomographic models, but with high resolution at large volume. Contrasting by classical chemical etching reveals structures that cannot be resolved using tomographic methods. The integration of further imaging and measuring methods into this system is underway. Some examples will be discussed in the presentation. T2 - Euromat 2023 CY - Frankfurt a.

T1 - Development of an ontology for the lifecycle of copper and copper alloys N2 - Efforts towards digitalization in the material science and technology community have enhanced in the last years. In 2019 the German digitalization initiative platform „MaterialDigital“1 (MD) has been started. Numerous projects concerning digitalization, including the copper related project „KupferDigital“ (copper digital) have been initiated under the umbrella of MD. The initiative strives to address numerous issues concerning data access, exchange, security, provenance and sovereignty. Heterogeneous data origin, storage and evaluation often result in problems concerning comparability and reproducibility of scientific and technological results. In many cases material data are recorded, but the methods of testing are insufficiently described, or such information is not communicated along with the raw data. The material data can also have numerous different formats such as paper printouts, pdfs, excel sheets or csv-files. Hence, gathering and integrating material data from different sources is challenging for potential users like materials scientists and engineers, especially if there are contradictory data where the reasons for contradictions is not clear due their vague description. In order to address these problems, data should comply to the so called „FAIR“ principle which calls for data to be findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR)2 and hence be accessible via so-called decentralized but interconnected data spaces. By using knowledge representation withontologies, data can be enriched with meaning and the methods of the testing procedures can be accurately provided. In this presentation we want to introduce our approach to such knowledge representation based on a high-throughput alloy development process for Cu-based alloys³ along with characterization techniques such as hardness testing and microstructural characterization (e.g. EBSD – Electron Backscattered Diffraction).

Multilayer thermoelectric generators (ML-TEGs) are a promising alternative to conventional π-type generators due to their high filling factor, high capability of automated production and the texturing potential during the production process. Calcium cobaltite is a promising thermoelectric oxide (p-type) with highly anisotropic properties. The following study shows the development of a textured unileg ML-TEG using ceramic multilayer technology. Tape-casting and pressure assisted sintering are applied to fabricate textured calcium cobaltite. Compared to conventional sintering, pressure assisted sintering increases the strength by the factor 10. Thermoelectric properties can be tuned either towards maximum power factor or towards maximum figure of merit depending on the pressure level. As electrical insulation material, a screen-printable glass-ceramic with high resistivity and adapted coefficient of thermal expansion is developed. From various commercial pastes a metallization with low contact resistance is chosen. The unileg ML-TEG is co-fired in one single step. The demonstrators reach 80% of the simulated output power and the power output is highly reproducible between the different demonstrators (99%). These results provide the first proof-of-concept for fabricating co-fired multilayer generators based on textured calcium cobaltite with high power factor, high density, and high strength.

New applications in complex shaped additive manufactured metal parts are emerging for example in large scale electrical devices. Microstructural and dielectric evaluation of coatings is crucial to the employment of such free-form processes. The properties and microstructure of the plasma sprayed alumina coatings are compared with dense reference samples of the same powder produced by spark plasma sintering (SPS). To obtain dense bulk samples from the coarse alumina powder for spray coating, SPS is used. Samples are fabricated by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) of commercially available alumina powder (d50 = 33 µm) on copper substrates and by SPS of the same powder. Microstructure and porosity were analyzed by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Phase compositions were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Dielectric properties such as DC resistance, dielectric strength, dielectric loss, and relative permittivity were determined according to the standards. The microstructure and dielectric properties of the coating and bulk material are compared to assess whether the coating is suitable for use in electrical insulation application.

However, to benefit from these design freedoms, knowledge of the high produced induced residual stress and mechanical property anisotropy associated with the unique microstructures is critical. X-ray and neutron diffraction are considered the benchmark for non-destructive characterization of surface and bulk internal residual stress. The latter, characterized by the high penetration power in most engineering alloys, allows for the use of a diffraction angle close to 90° enabling a near cubic sampling volume to be specified. However, the complex microstructures of columnar growth with inherent crystallographic texture typically produced during PBF-LB/M of metallics present significant challenges to the assumptions typically required for time efficient determination of residual stress. These challenges include the selection of an appropriate set of diffraction elastic constants and a representative lattice plane suitable for residual stress analysis. In this contribution, the selection of a suitable lattice plane family for residual stress analysis is explored. Furthermore, the determination of an appropriate set of diffraction and single-crystal elastic constants depending on the underlying microstructure is addressed. In-situ loading experiments have been performed at the Swiss Spallation Neutron Source with the main scope to study the deformation behaviour of laser powder bed fused Inconel 718. Cylindrical tensile bars have been subjected to an increasing mechanical load. At pre-defined steps, neutron diffraction data has been collected. After reaching the yield limit, unloads have been performed to study the accumulation of intergranular strain among various lattice plane families.

In this respect, semantic and AI technologies are paving the way for advancements in materials development, design, and optimization while leaping towards an Industry 4.0 environment. Addressing the dual challenges of quality assurance and data interoperability, this presentation examines the integration of semantic technologies and knowledge representation methods. By adhering to FAIR principles, this approach enhances data management, storage, and reuse. That way, both machine-actionable and human-understandable data structures crucial for digital research environments are fostered. This presentation focuses on the ‘platform MaterialDigital’ (PMD) initiative, which aims to support efforts from both industrial and academic sectors to solve digitalization challenges and implement sustainable digital solutions. Besides establishing structures to create virtual material data spaces, PMD develops solutions for systematizing and unifying the handling of hierarchical, process-dependent material data. Semantic technologies play a crucial role in digitalization efforts as they enable the storage, processing, and querying of data in a contextualized form. Therefore, the development and prototypical application of the PMD Core Ontology 3.0 (PMDco 3.0) tailored for materials science is highlighted. This includes the design and documentation of graph patterns that may be compiled into rule-based semantic shapes. Its integration into daily lab life is demonstrated through its application to electronic lab notebooks (ELN). This illustrates potentials of standardized protocols and automation-ready solutions for managing diverse experimental data across different sources. Outlining best practices and illustrating the possibilities that semantic technologies bring to modern labs, examples from materials processing and mechanical testing will underscore how knowledge graphs bridge the gap between data and decision-making in materials science, with potential for increased productivity and streamlined workflows across the field.

To address this challenge, the Platform MaterialDigital Core Ontology (PMDco) provides a mid-level semantic framework that bridges high-level ontologies and domain-specific terminologies. PMDco version 3.0, recently released, introduces significant enhancements based on a full alignment with the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as standardized in ISO/IEC 21838-2. This alignment ensures conceptual consistency and facilitates integration across heterogeneous data sources while enabling FAIR-compliant workflows. First addressing the idea behind a mid-level ontology in MSE, this presentation emphasizes its role in harmonizing diverse data models and supporting machine-actionable knowledge representation. New features and design patterns introduced in PMDco 3.0 will be highlighted, which strengthen interoperability and provide reusable modeling structures for common MSE concepts. Practical applications and prototype implementations will be discussed. PMDco has been developed through active community involvement and its future evolution relies on continued collaboration and discussion within the MSE community. Participation is strongly encouraged to ensure that PMDco remains relevant, comprehensive, and widely adopted.

The challenge is to identify and adapt these technologies to significantly improve daily operations, covering the entire cycle of data generation, collection, storage to its processing and use. This presentation presents different approaches developed within the Platform MaterialDigital (PMD) and related initiatives, each addressing specific challenges of digitalization and demonstrating their benefits. These will be illustrated by a case study on age-hardenable aluminium alloys in different aging states, based on a comprehensive dataset of microstructural and mechanical properties. In this context, ontologies are essential for organizing data into interoperable semantic structures, thereby enabling the representation of concepts and their relationships. The PMD Core Ontology (PMDco) serves as a higher semantic layer that connects domain-specific ontologies [1]. The PMDco provides MSE-specific bridging concepts that enhance data mapping and integration capabilities. This approach facilitates the linking of results from natural language processing of a corpus of microscopy abstracts, which supported the development of a microscopy ontology. In addition, the presentation highlights how modular, digital workflows can improve the reproducibility of transmission electron microscopy image processing and analysis [2]. It also shows how freely available mechanical and microstructural datasets are semantically integrated and made searchable through PMDco, facilitating correlation analysis [3]. Looking ahead, the integration of these components has the potential to advance and sustain MSE practices.

In this work it is presented how a collaborative ontology development for the alloy development process is approached and a workflow for chemical optimization of copper alloys is introduced. This is done by employing a combination of a high-throughput alloy development method [1] with the calculation of the corresponding phase compositions. The work presented here is part of the publicly funded project KupferDigital. The project is associated with the innovation platform MaterialDigital (PMD) and focusses on the digitalization of processes as well as knowledge representation along the life-cycle of copper and copper alloys. One part of this life cycle is the alloy development of copper alloys, in this case the alloy development employing a high throughput method based on diffusion couples. The alloy development process can be further broken down into several typical material processing steps such as casting, diffusion welding and annealing. As part of the copper life cycle, the constitution and the properties of an alloy play an important role for processes further down the road during product manufacturing and service life and are also crucial for the recycling properties of the alloy. It is therefore important to, on the one hand, communicate data concerning properties, process history and constitution to the following stations of the life cycle, on the other hand, it is also elementary for the material scientist to be aware of the recycling properties of the alloys constituents. This motivates sharing of data along the life cycle and the development of ontology based data spaces, where life-cycle information can be linked across all involved domains. As part of the alloy development process, it is presented how experimental data created at fem are shared using linked data and ontologies with an example based on the digital representation of the chemical composition of copper alloys further processed by CALculation of PHAse Diagrams (CALPHAD) at the Fraunhofer IWM. The calculation results are used to correlate measured hardness data with the equilibrium phases of the alloys. Selected Compositions are cast and heat treated and subjected to mechanical testing at BAM and the resulting mechanical property-data are again linked to the measured and simulated data from the alloy development process.

The undergraduate students were asked to prepare samples of a precipitation hardened aluminum alloy and characterize them using hardness and tensile tests. In a first step, we developed the frames for the digital labor notebook using eLabFTW. The primary data and the relevant metadata of each run were saved in a central database and made available for analysis and report issues. The whole set of results produced in a course was made available in the database. This database can be improved and serve as an open repository for data on this specific alloy. The logical frame for the joint project was provided by the PMD Core Ontology (PMDco), a mid-level ontology that enables the representation and description of processes and process chains in an MSE-specific manner, ensuring full traceability of generated data. For the digitalization of this lab course, the tensile test ontology (TTO) was applied which is designed as a module of the PMDco using strongly related semantic concepts.

However, gathering a specific library from such extensive and diverse material data is always challenging for the materials scientists and engineers, since the time-related limitations are not allowed to fully access the large publicly available databases; search across these disparate databases, manage the large volumes of heterogeneous datasets, and integrate data from multiple sources. To address these challenges and make data findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR), an efficient data management system is necessary to build comprehensive, documented, and connected data spaces in the future. A formal standardized knowledge representation through an ontology can address such problems and make data more available and interoperable between related domains. Ontology can also rich machine processable semantic descriptions that increases the performance of scientific searches. In this regard, the Platform MaterialDigital (PMD) is currently working on developing a high-level ontology for the materials and material related processes. For example, in one of the PMD projects of “KupferDigital”, we will try to develop a data ecosystem for digital materials research based on ontology-based digital representations of copper and copper alloys. As a case study, this paper describes the methodology for ontology development of Brinell hardness, based on PMD core ontology. The methodology we describe includes the following steps; gathering the required domain terminology from different resources like standards (DIN EN ISO 6506-1) and test reports, representing the performance of a standard-conformant hardness test and the treatment of the recorded values up to a “reportable” hardness value for a material, designing the process chain according to the semantic technologies, and developing a domain-level ontology of Brinell hardness based on PMD ontology semantic formalization. Apart the mentioned methodology, some interesting tools and methods were introduced and ontology design challenges and possible solutions for modelling materials and processes were discussed. Furthermore, a dataset from the Brinell hardness measurement of cast copper samples is prepared for testing the query process.

The choice of DSS for a particular hydrogen application mainly depends on its susceptibility level to Hydrogen Assisted Cracking (HAC). Several mechanisms have been proposed to describe the occurring microscale processes behind HAC, and these include metastable phase transformation, Hydrogen Enhanced Localized Plasticity (HELP), and Hydrogen Enhanced Decohesion (HEDE). This contribution describes the path to ascertain if DSS is suitable for high-pressure gaseous hydrogen applications. The interplay between several critical factors that result in HAC was examined using high-pressure gaseous hydrogen charging, Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD), tensile testing and hydrogen concentration measurements using Carrier Gas Hot Extraction (CGHE).

However, such softening processes are highly complex since microscopic (e.g., recovery) and macroscopic (e.g., crack initiation and growth), as well as global and local effects superimpose, especially under creep-fatigue conditions. In this contribution, we discuss the cyclic deformation and softening behavior of P92 in strain-controlled LCF, in-phase (IP) TMF, and out-of-phase (OP) TMF tests with and without dwell times in the temperature range from 300 °C to 620°C. EBSD-based dislocation analysis on various fatigued material states confirms the continuous redistribution and annihilation of geometrically necessary dislocations in all studied states, which can be quantitatively correlated with macroscopic softening despite different damage mechanisms for different test types. Deviations from this correlation are observed for OP TMF and LCF with dwell times, i.e., for conditions where optical microscopy reveals pronounced crack-oxidation interactions at the specimen surfaces.

An epoxy system, e.g. Hexion L285/H287, is filled into an elastomer container, such as a silicone tube. This can be mounted into a conventional DMA and, based on a linear viscoelastic approach, the storage modulus (E’;G’), the loss modulus (E’’;G’’) and the loss angle tan(delta) can be measured at constant temperature as a function of time in order to investigate the liquid to sol-gel to solid transition. With this new method, the stiffness increase as a result of the cure process can be directly measured more precisely than with a rheometer in a shear plate set-up, because using an elastomer container gives a defined cross section for calculating the Young’s modulus.
