TY - CONF A1 - Sprengel, Maximilian T1 - The relaxation of macroscopic residual stresses in laser powder bed fused stainless steel 316L N2 - The processing of stainless steel 316L using the additive manufacturing process Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) can widen its field of application due to a strong increase in Yield strength, without making major compromises on the ductility nor its outstanding corrosion and oxidation properties. Furthermore, improved designs that either reduce the weight or optimise the function of a part can be obtained using LPBF. These benefits are however counterbalanced by the proneness of LPBF to inducing high Residual Stresses (RS) during manufacturing. The characterisation and monitoring of these RS are of paramount importance for the wider acceptance of the LPBF process. This study focuses on the relaxation of the initial macroscopic RS present in an LPBF 316L as-built prism that undergoes various routes of manufacturing steps to achieve different specimen geometries and stress relieving treatments. The RS are determined using Angle-Dispersive (AD) and Time-of-Flight (TOF) neutron diffraction. The results reveal high tensile RS close to the surfaces and compressive RS near the centre of the as-built parts. The reduction in size and change of geometry heavily impact the stress ranges of the remaining RS, with lower stress ranges in cylindrical shaped compared to rectangular shaped specimens. Also, the application of different stress relieving heat treatments showed that heat-treating temperatures above 800 °C are necessary to obtain a strong relaxation in LPBF 316L.

Multilayer generators based on low-temperature co-fired ceramics technology (LTCC) are an interesting alternative to conventional π-type generators. They exhibit several advantages like high filling factor, possibility of texturing, co-firing of all materials in one single-step, and reduction of production costs due to the high possible degree of automation. Pressure-assisted sintering enables the theoretical possibility of co-firing two promising oxide thermoelectric materials: Ca3Co4O9 (p-type) and CaMnO3 (n-type). Due to the large difference in sintering temperature (300 K) the process is very challenging. In this work we show the material development of Ca3Co4O9, CaMnO3, insulation and metallization for multilayer generators co-fired under pressure at 900 °C. The materials are tailored regarding their sintering behavior, electrical performance and coefficients of thermal expansion. Different generator designs (unileg and pn-type) were fabricated and analyzed regarding crack formation, interaction layers and thermoelectric performance. Simulated stresses during cooling in the multilayers are compared with actual crack formation for different sintering conditions. This study shows that a lower pressure level and a lower level of complexity are beneficial for co-firing and performance.

However, inherent process-related defects in additively manufactured material, along with the interface created between the additively manufactured and the cast base material, impact the fatigue crack growth behavior in bi-material components. This study investigates the fatigue crack growth behavior in bi-material specimens of nickel-based alloys, specifically, additively manufactured STAL15 and cast alloy 247DS. The tests were conducted at 950 °C with stress ratios of 0.1 and -1. Metallographic and fractographic investigations were carried out to understand crack growth mechanisms. The results revealed significant retardation in crack growth at the interface. This study highlights the potential contributions of residual stresses and microstructural differences to the observed crack growth retardation phenomenon, along with the conclusion from an earlier study on the effect of yield strength mismatch on crack growth behavior at a perpendicular interface in bi-material specimens.

One potential candidate is the intermetallic material class of iron aluminides, combining the advantages in mass savings, high temperature performance and recyclability of resources. The alloy Fe-26Al-4Mo-0.5Ti-1B was selected to study the microstructural features evolving from two casting processes, five wall thicknesses and three final conditions. Conclusions are drawn upon the correlations of processing variables, grain sizes and hardness.

The alloy PBF-LB/M/316L features a fully austenitic microstructure with hierarchical characteristics— such as fine dislocation structures, segregated elements, low-angle grain boundaries, and nano-dispersed silicates—that enhance strength and ductility. Additionally, it includes metallurgical defects and residual stresses. Apart from process control, heat treatments (HTs) are used to tailor the microstructure for specific loading conditions. This study investigate the effects of post-processing HTs on the hierarchical microstructure and tensile properties of PBF-LB/M/316L at room and high temperature. The heat treatments, ranging from 400 °C to 900 °C for 1 to 4 hours, focus on sub-recrystallization temperatures to preserve the microstructural hierarchy. The HTs applied had minimal impact on the grain shape, size, or texture of PBF-LB/M/316L. However, significant modifications occurred in the solidification cellular substructure after HTs at 800 °C and 900 °C, when compared to a heat-treated condition at 450 °C. HTs at 800 °C notably decreased dislocation density and enlarged cellular structures, though they remained partially intact. After 1 hour at 900 °C, the cellular substructure dissipated, correlating with a further reduction in dislocation density. These microstructural changes resulted in a decreased yield strength and increased work hardening capacity at both room and high temperature, highlighting the critical link between HT parameters, microstructural evolution, and mechanical performance.

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.

Um die Effizienz moderner Gasturbinen zu verbessern, werden hohe Betriebstemperaturen angestrebt. Diese hohen Temperaturen verbunden mit mechanischen Belastungen führen zu Materialschäden aufgrund von Kriechen, Ermüdung und anderen Schadensmechanismen. Aus diesem Grund werden Turbinenschaufeln regelmäßig im Rahmen von Wartungs- und Instandsetzungsmaßnahmen geprüft und falls erforderlich ausgetauscht, um ein katastrophales Versagen im Betrieb zu vermeiden. Ein kompletter Austausch ist mit sehr hohen Kosten verbunden, weshalb geeignete Reparaturverfahren entwickelt wurden und werden. Neue Reparaturtechnologien wie die Additive Fertigung, Lötverfahren und der Einsatz von vorgesinterten Vorformen (Presintered Preform PSP) sollen eine effiziente Reparatur und optimale Eigenschaften der reparierten Bauteile sichterstellen. Im Allgemeinen stellen die Fügezonen typische Schwachstellen dar, da sie die Anrissbildung und Rissausbreitung erleichtern und die Anzahl der Lastzyklen bis zum Bruch reduzieren können. Aus diesem Grund ist eine umfassende Untersuchung des Rissfortschrittsverhaltens in diesen, durch neue Reparaturtechnologien entstandenen Bereichen erforderlich, um die Restlebensdauer der Turbinenschaufeln vorherzusagen. Als ein erster Beitrag zu dieser Fragestellung werden Ergebnisse von Rissfortschrittsversuchen (Fig. 1) an SENT-Proben vorgestellt, die durch Engspaltlöten gefügt wurden. Die Versuche wurden bei einer Temperatur von 950 °C und einem Spannungsverhältnis R = 0,1 durchgeführt. Die Erfassung des Rissfortschritts erfolgte mit dem Gleichstrom-Potentialsonden-Verfahren. Mit der Finite-Element-Methode konnte der Spannungsintensitätsfaktor für gefügte SENT-Proben berechnet werden, der dann zur Berechnung der Risswachstumskurven verwendet wurde. Eine abschließende licht- und rasterelektronenmikroskopische Untersuchung der Bruchflächen soll einen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Bruchmechanismen liefern und klären, ob der Riss sich im Lotwerkstoff, im Grundwerkstoff oder in der Grenzfläche ausbreitet. Die Ergebnisse werden zur Kalibrierung des Rissfortschrittsmodells und der Auslegung zukünftiger Komponenten verwendet.

Based on the specifications of the ISO 12106:2017-03 standard [1] and the acquired test reports of the mechanical testing facility, a highly comprehensive process graph of the fatigue testing procedure was created. Consequently, the PROV Ontology (PROVO) and PMDco [2] were used as upper-level ontologies to model the fatigue testing ontology (FTO). A part of the FTO classes hierarchy is shown in Fig. 1, where all the concepts of test procedure, test apparatus, test piece, and test properties were respectively located in the appropriate hierarchies of pmd:Process (prov:Activity), pmd:ProcessingNode (prov:Agent), pmd:Object (prov:Entity), and pmd:ValueObject (prov:Entity) classes. FTO is publicly available via the GitLab repository [3]. Reusing these upper-level ontologies and materials testing standards not only improves FTO's compatibility with other ontologies but also ensures its acceptance and deployment in industry [4]. The fatigue testing process graph has also been designed in such a manner that it allows for the entire mapping of testing metadata. In this respect, low-cycle fatigue (LCF) experiments were carried out on several cast copper alloys at various strain ratios, and the resulting CSV test report files were stored in a public repository [5]. Eventually, the processes of mapping the experimental test data into the fatigue process graph, converting the RDF data, storage of the triples in a triple store, and SPARQL query from the obtained triples are evaluated by different PMD-based tools like PMD OntoDocker [6].
