T1 - Einfluss der wässrigen Phase von Zementleim und Polycarboxylatethern auf die Rheologie und die frühe Hydratation von Zement N2 - Die Rheologie von fließfähigen zementären Systemen mit Fließmitteln wird durch eine Vielzahl parallel stattfindender Effekte beeinflusst. Zu diesen Effekten zählen Wechselwirkungen zwischen den Polymeren und Ionen in der Porenlösung, frühe Phasenbildung, zeitabhängige und kompetitive Adsorption zwischen anionischen Polymeren und Sulfationen, Bildung von Phasen in der Porenlösung sowie Morphologieänderungen an Partikeloberflächen. Die frühe Hydratation von Zement, die durch Lösungs- und Fällungsprozesse angetrieben wird, beeinflusst diese Effekte erheblich. Das permanente Ungleichgewicht der Porenlösung führt zu Veränderungen der Partikeloberflächen, welches widerum zur Folge hat, dass rheometrische Messungen dieser Zementleime anfällig für Streuungen sind. Um die Einflüsse aus der Zementhydratation zu minimieren, wurden die rheometrischen Untersuchungen mit Zement in Porenlösung durchgeführt. Die Experimente wurden mit verschiedenen Feststoffvolumenfraktionen durchgeführt und mit den Ergebnissen identischer Systeme mit Wasser anstelle von Porenlösung verglichen. Zusätzlich wurden die gleichen Systeme mit Zugabe von Polycarboxylatethern untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Leime mit Wasser niedrigere Werte für Fließgrenze und plastische Viskosität aufweisen, als die Systeme mit Porenlösung. Während die Polymere eine Verminderung der Fließgrenze zur Folge hatte, war die Wirkung von Polymeren auf die plastische Viskosität vernachlässigbar. Zusätzlich wurde die frühe Hydratation unter Verwendung von Wärmeflusskalorimetrie, Rasterelektronenmikroskopie und Nadeleindringtiefe beobachtet. T2 - 20.

T1 - Aspekte der analytischen bruchmechanischen Bauteilbewertung N2 - Am Beispiel eines abgesetzten zylindrischen Bauteils (Achsschenkel) werden Probleme der analytischen bruchmechanischen Bauteilbewertung diskutiert. Als Basis-philosophie wird ein Fail Safe-Kriterium (kontrolliertes Versagen) angesetzt. Die Forderung ist, dass sich der Achsschenkel, bevor er bricht, in einem Ausmaß plastisch verformen kann, bei dem der Fahrer bemerkt, dass mit seinem Fahrzeug etwas nicht in Ordnung ist. Um das zu gewährleisten, muss der Werkstoff einen bestimmten Riss-widerstand aufweisen. Dazu werden im hier vorgestellten ersten Teil des Projektes mittels FEM Rissspitzenbeanspruchungen in Abhängigkeit von der Auslenkung des Zylinders und angenommener Rissgrößen ermittelt. Diese finden als Zielgrößen in der weiteren Analyse Anwendung. Da eine einfach umzusetzende Lösung angestrebt wird, werden zusätzlich analytische Rechnungen an Ersatzgeometrien (halbunendliche Platte und Vollzylinder), aber mit den realen Spannungen am Bauteil durchgeführt. Es zeigt sich, dass die Ergebnisse wegen des Steifigkeitsunterschieds zwischen Bauteil und Ersatzgeometrie unvertretbar konservativ sind. Alternativ wird ein hybrides Konzept vorgestellt, für das die Modellparameter mittels FEM bestimmt werden. Es liefert sehr genaue Ergebnisse. Im Rahmen der analytischen Rechenvorschrift können die Lösungen auf andere Werkstoffe übertragen werden, ohne dass zusätzliche FEM-Analysen notwendig sind. T2 - 54.

T1 - Investigation of the Master Curve Concept for ferritic Ductile Cast Iron N2 - Based on state-of-the-art research and regulations, the application of the fracture mechanics master curve (MC) concept to ferritic ductile cast iron (DCI) is being investigated in a recently started German joint research project between BAM Berlin and MPA Stuttgart. This paper outlines the research approach and the planned investigations and provides first results. According to the IAEA guidelines SSG 26, the safety assessment of DCI containers for transport as well as interim and final storage of radioactive materials is based on the fracture mechanics criterion of general crack initiation exclusion. Within this context, the focus of the current research project is on the further development of brittle fracture safety assessment methods under dynamic loading conditions. Within fracture mechanics safety assessments for steels in nuclear technology, the probabilistic MC concept according to ASTM E1921 is currently used for quasi-static loading conditions as a supplement to the established deterministic ASME reference curve concept. The MC concept allows for an effective statistical consideration of the scatter of the material toughness in the transition regime. Furthermore, the MC can also be used for elevated loading rates as they occur in accident or crash scenarios. However, for DCI, a systematic review of potential modifications to the MC assumptions and procedure according to ASTM E1921 and an associated validation are still lacking. Therefore, a corresponding methodology shall be established to determine and assess dynamic fracture toughness values of DCI in the ductile-to-brittle transition regime, using samples extracted from a component. For the experimental program, a DCI material was produced as it is generally used for transport and storage containers. A basic mechanical-technological material characterization consisting of tensile, Charpy, and Pellini tests is planned. A comprehensive fracture mechanics test program was compiled covering dynamic testing of DC(T)9, C(T)25, C(T)50, SE(B)10, SE(B)25, and SE(B)140 specimens. Moreover, numerical analyses of different specimen geometries and test setups are planned to investigate the influences of stress triaxiality and loading rate. Throughout the experimental program, the microstructure-property relationship will be investigated based on quantitative metallographic and fractographic analyses. Finally, different MC assessment strategies will be considered, and modifications will be made if necessary.

T1 - Influence of storage on the water binding of pectin: determination by DSC N2 - Citrus pectins, necessary for the food industry and many other applications, are produced by large companies and distributed worldwide. On their way to the customers, the pectins may be stored under unfavourable environmental conditions for longer periods. This can alter their properties and affect their quality in the final application. It can be assumed that (1) pectins from different suppliers, produced from varying raw materials and under different processing conditions, have also varying material properties and water binding behaviour, and (2) the storage of pectins at 60 °C and 80 % humidity might alter these properties and the increase of hydrophilic groups might increase also their water binding ability. The aim of the present study was to investigate the water binding properties of different commercial pectins prior to and after storage by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at different water contents.

A1 - Prinz, Carsten T1 - Enhanced pore space analysis by use of μ-CT, MIP, N2 - We investigate the pore space of rock samples with respect to different petrophysical parameters using various methods, which provide data upon pore size distributions, including micro computed tomography (μ-CT), mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and spectral induced polarization (SIP). The resulting cumulative distributions of pore volume as a function of pore size are compared. Considering that the methods differ with regard to their limits of resolution, a multiple length scale characterization of the pore space geometry is proposed, that is based on a combination of the results from all of these methods. The findings of this approach are compared and discussed by using Bentheimer sandstone. Additionally, we compare the potential of SIP to provide a pore size distribution with other commonly used methods (MIP, NMR). The limits of resolution of SIP depend on the usable frequency range (between 0.002 and 100 Hz). The methods with similar resolution show a similar behavior of the cumulative pore volume distribution in the overlapping pore size range. The methods μ-CT and NMR provide the pore body size while MIP and SIP characterize the pore throat size. Using this difference, the average pore body to throat ratio is determined to be about three for the Bentheimer sandstone. Our study shows that a good agreement between the pore radii distributions can only be achieved if the curves are adjusted considering the resolution and pore volume in the relevant range of pore radii. The MIP curve with the widest range in resolution should be used as reference T2 - Annual Symposium of the Society of Core Analysts 2017 CY - Vienna, Austria DA - 27.08.2017 KW - Spectral induced polarization KW - Mercury intrusion porosimetry KW - µ-CT KW - Nuclear magnetic resonance KW - Bentheimer Sandstone PY - 2017 SP - 086, 1 EP - 086, 8 AN - OPUS4-43082 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Holzwarth, Marcel A1 - Mayer, Uwe A1 - Baer, Wolfram A1 - Weihe, Stefan T1 - Investigation of the Master Curve Concept for Ferritic Ductile Cast Iron N2 - Within fracture mechanics safety assessment for steels in nuclear technology, the probabilistic master curve (MC) concept according to ASTM E1921 is currently used for quasi-static loading conditions as a supplement to the established deterministic ASME reference curve concept. However, for ductile cast iron (DCI), a systematic review of potential modifications to the assumptions and the procedure according to ASTM E1921 and an associated validation are still lacking. For this reason, the application of the fracture mechanics MC concept to ferritic ductile cast iron is being investigated in a joint research project between MPA Stuttgart and BAM Berlin. According to Hojo et al. (2008) the MC concept is already in use for the brittle fracture safety assessment of ferritic forged steel containers, which would suggest an extension to ductile cast iron containers. In compliance with IAEA SSG-26, the safety assessment of DCI containers for transport as well as storage of radioactive materials is based on the fracture mechanics criterion of general exclusion of crack initiation. Within this context, the focus of the current research project is on the further development of brittle fracture safety assessment methods. Therefore, a methodology shall be established to determine and assess dynamic fracture toughness values of DCI in the ductile-to-brittle transition regime, using only a low number of small fracture mechanics test specimens extracted from a component. For the experimental program, a DCI material of grade GJS-400 (GGG-40) has been produced as it is generally used for transport and storage containers for nuclear material. A basic mechanical-technological material characterization consisting of tensile, Charpy, and Pellini tests has been planned and a comprehensive fracture mechanics test program was compiled covering dynamic testing of DC(T)9, C(T)25, C(T)50, SE(B)10, SE(B)25, and SE(B)140 specimens at various loading rates and temperatures. The specimen testing is divided between the project partners based on specimen geometry. MPA Stuttgart has been tasked with the testing of the C(T), DC(T) and Pellini specimens, while BAM Berlin was assigned the SE(B), Charpy and tensile tests. These tests allow for the determination of the loading rate relevant for brittle fracture via C(T)25 specimens and an assessment of size effects by transferring the relevant loading rate to other specimen geometries and sizes. Numerical analyses of different specimen geometries and test setups are planned to investigate the influence of stress triaxiality and loading rate. Furthermore, the time-dependent course of the Weibull stress is assessed via these numerical analyses. Throughout the experimental program, the microstructure-property relationship will also be investigated based on quantitative metallographic and fractographic analyses like scanning electron microscope images and metallographic sections. With the acquired experimental database fundamental assumptions of the MC concept, like the weakest link model and the Weibull distribution, will be assessed for the application to DCI. In the end, the applicability of the MC concept will be evaluated and if necessary, modifications to the MC concept for DCI will be proposed. This paper will present the preliminary results of the GJS400 material characterization and the related selection of test specimen extraction points. First results of the C(T)25 and SE(B)140 specimen testing will also be discussed supported by first metallographic analyses.

T1 - Chunky Graphite - Recognition, Quantification, and Impact on Properties of Spheroidal Graphite Cast Iron N2 - Since there is a continuously growing demand for complex, frequently heavy-sectioned spheroidal graphite cast iron (SGI) castings it is worth paying attention to the chunky graphite (CHG) degeneration which may occur under certain technological circumstances. Although a reference line for preventive actions in terms of general metallurgical and process measures could be drawn to avoid CHG in heavy-sectioned ferritic SGI castings, a broad majority of experts claim the avoidance of CHG in heavy sections cannot yet be rated a hundred percent process safe. A major reason may be seen in the fact that a universal, generally accepted explanation of CHG formation and growth has not yet been established, although several theories have been proposed. Nevertheless, metallurgical aspects are not in the focus of this paper. This paper is about the current state of methods to detect CHG in SGI on the laboratory and component scales. Capabilities and limits of different metallographic, fractographic and non-destructive computer tomographic methods to recognize and quantify CHG are discussed. With respect to the characteristic fili-gree three-dimensional string-like, multi-branched CHG structure, which is non-isometric and non-dispersed, serious implications on the possibility to quantitatively characterize the amount of CHG must be considered. In contrary to the metallurgical aspects, the knowledge about the impact of CHG on the materials and com-ponents properties is still surprisingly limited. Therefore, special emphasis of this paper is on the impact of CHG degeneration on the properties of ferritic SGI. Experimental results are reviewed to illustrate the effect of CHG on mechanical strength and ductility properties as well as fracture mechanics properties in terms of crack resistance and fracture toughness. The present situation is characterized by discussions and uncertainty about the acceptance or rejection of SGI components containing CHG. Addressing this, conclusions from the materials engineering point of view are drawn for quality control, a safe operational strategy in the foundry and component safety.

T1 - Towards a better understanding of electrical relaxation N2 - Other than commonly assumed the relaxation times observed in the electrical low-frequency range (1 mHz – 40 kHz) of natural porous media like sandstones and tuff stones cannot be directly related to the dominant (modal) pore throat sizes, measured (e.g.) with mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). Working with a great variety of sandstones from very different origins and featuring great variations in textural and chemical compositions as well as in geometrical pore space properties, it was observed that particularly samples with narrow pore throats were characterized by long (low-frequency) relaxations. These, however, can (following the current theories) be rather explained by long “characteristic length scales” in these media or low diffusion coefficients along the electrical double layer. However, there is no straightforward way (or single approved method) of getting reliable numbers for properties such as the lengths of pore throats, the diameter and length of the wide pores and their respective distributions. Consequently we follow a multi-methodical approach and combine the benefits of MIP, micro-computed tomography (μ-CT) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to achieve much deeper insight due to the different resolutions and sensitivities to either pore constrictions (throats) or wide pores. This helps us to understand, whether the observed electrical relaxation phenomena actually depend on geometric length scales or rather on other properties such as chemical composition, clay content, clay type or cation exchange capacity. In this paper, we showcase selected results of a systematic study of a total of 16 sandstones and three tuffs. Findings and the particular advantage of the used method combination are discussed and shown in detail for a representative sample selection.

The experimental program included a basic mechanical-technological material characterization consisting of tensile, Charpy and Pellini tests. To determine the relevant loading rate for brittle fracture, instrumented C(T)25 fracture tests were performed at different loading rates at a temperature of -40°C. The relevant loading rates are 5x10^3 MPa√ms-1 and 5x10^4 MPa√ms-1. A series of dynamic fracture tests consisting of DC(T)9, C(T)25 and C(T)50 specimens were performed at MPA. BAM performed corresponding test series with SE(B)10 (pre-cracked Charpy), SE(B)25 and SE(B)140 specimens to cover the influence of specimen geometry. In total about 400 tests were performed during this project. The experimental program is complemented by extensive fractographic and metallographic studies using scanning electron microscopy and cross sectioning, as well as characterizations of the chemical composition of the material and of the morphology and distribution of the graphite particles. KJcd values were evaluated for all C(T)25 specimens and some C(T)50 and DC(T)9 specimens. First Master Curve analyses suggest that modifications on the Master Curve setup will be neccessary for instance changing the coefficient from 0.019 to 0.045. This modification requires further validation and is only one of many possible modifications. The SE(B) specimen results clearly show an inverse size effect. This does not correlate with the weakest link effect attributed to steels which dictates lower fracture toughness values for larger specimens. Due to the presence of graphite particles in the DCI material, it is currently assumed that these particles play a significant role in the failure behavior of DCI materials and the following fracture mechanism is proposed: “Specimen size-dependent arrest of local brittle fracures before global brittle failure by weakest link”.

Damit diese Entscheidungen auf zuverlässigen numerischen Modellen basieren können, müssen die zugrunde liegenden Teilmodelle eindeutig beschrieben, reproduzierbar und in der Community validiert sein. Dieses Manuskript skizziert die notwendigen Voraussetzungen für vertrauenswürdige, FAIR-konforme und entscheidungsfähige Simulationsprozesse. Zunächst wird die Notwendigkeit einer formalen, softwareunabhängigen Beschreibung mathematischer Modelle und numerischer Implementierungen diskutiert. Standards wie VMAP, Ontologien wie MathModDB sowie BIM- und STEP-Formate bieten erste Ansätze zur semantischen Modellbeschreibung und zur automatisierten Generierung simulationsfähiger Eingabedaten. Im zweiten Teil wird die Rolle experimenteller Daten für die Validierung von Modellen beleuchtet. Es wird gezeigt, dass hochwertige, strukturierte und maschinenlesbare Validierungsdatensätze essenziell sind, insbesondere für die Bewertung konstitutiver Modelle. Ein weiteres Kapitel widmet sich der Unsicherheitsquantifizierung. Neben klassischen Fehlermaßen werden aleatorische und epistemische Unsicherheiten sowie deren Einfluss auf die Modellbewertung behandelt. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit gilt der Bayes’schen Kalibrierung, der Trennung von Trainings und Testdaten und der Notwendigkeit, auch Begleitversuche aus Materialtests zu dokumentieren. Abschließend wird die Idee einer Benchmarking-Plattform vorgestellt, die auf reproduzierbaren Workflows, automatisierter Provenienzverfolgung und der Nutzung von Research Object (RO) Crates basiert. Diese Plattform erlaubt die dezentrale Veröffentlichung und zentrale Abfrage von Benchmark-Ergebnissen und fördert eine gemeinschaftliche Verifikation und Validierung. Ziel ist es, die Vergleichbarkeit von (Open-Source-)Simulationstools zu verbessern um dadurch komplexe experimentelle Setups zunehmend durch zuverlässige Simulationen ersetzen zu können.

T1 - Validation of numerical simulation models for transport and storage casks using drop test results N2 - The safety assessment of new designs for transport and storage casks for radioactive materials is a challenging task accomplished using different methods such as prototype tests, model tests, calculations and analogy reflections. At BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing), the test procedures for the mechanical IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) test conditions often start with preliminary finite element (FE) calculations mostly with a small-scale cask model for verification of the proposed test cask instrumentation and test plan. On that basis the extensive test cask instrumentation is applied and checked. After that, a series of drop tests consisting of different test sequences is performed. Following the drop tests, numerical post-analyses are carried out. These analyses offer the possibility of a detailed calculation and assessment of stresses and strains in the entire test cask construction. The calculation results have to be carefully compared with the measurement data over the impact history to find out all relevant parameters for a realistic simulation of the impact scenario. The desired ideal boundary test conditions often cannot be met exactly during the drop tests. Therefore, the numerical post-analyses are carried out by using the real boundary conditions of the drop tests. The objective is to find a validated model, where the results of the numerical simulations satisfactorily meet the experimental results. Under test conditions according to the IAEA transport regulations, casks are usually equipped with impact limiters and dropped onto a so-called unyielding target. In general, it is difficult to verify a complex FE model by using results from only one drop test because of the complex impact process and the complex structure of such packages. After each drop test, numerical post-analyses should be carried out. Only if all drop tests were simulated successfully by using the same FE model under different test conditions, it is possible to obtain a validated numerical model for further investigations. In this case the results of the numerical simulations meet satisfactorily the experimental results. In this paper a study is presented, where the influence of different components on the cask loading is investigated systematically.

T1 - Analysis of early-age cracking of cementitious materials by combination of various non destructive testing methods N2 - High performance concrete shows high proneness to autogenous shrinkage and micro cracking due to the low water-binder-ratio and high content of microsilica. An internal restraint of the shrinkage caused by aggregate and reinforcement presence, or the external restraint due to adjacent structural members, causes high tensile stress development in the concrete matrix. The commonly used existing measurement methods enable characterization of the degree of damage only at discrete points in time. The ongoing research work presented in this paper looks into combining the acoustic emission and ultrasonic measurements with the existing experimental techniques (such as shrinkage, tensile strength development, etc.) to potentially better illustrate crack formation in cementitious matrix.

Alternatively to prototype drop tests, numerical methods can be applied, if they are suitable and sufficiently verified. In this context BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) started the research project ConDrop to develop a reliable Finite Element (FE) model describing the mechanical behavior of a box shaped steel container during a drop test and to determine unfavorable scenarios within future safety assessment procedures of comparable steel sheet containers. In a first step, a FE model of a representative steel sheet container was developed. Flat bottom-side drop tests with the unloaded container from different heights onto an IAEA target were simulated. In order to verify the numerical calculations, two drop tests with an unloaded KONRAD Type V steel sheet container were carried out at the BAM drop test facility. Both drop tests (flat drop from heights 0.4 m and 5 m onto the unyielding IAEA target) had been documented by various extensive measurements: strain and deceleration measurement by means of strain gauges and accelerometers, high-speed video as well as optical 3D-measurements using the method of projected fringes in combination with close range photogrammetry. The measured strain and deceleration values are presented and compared with the calculated results.

A1 - Hofmann-Böllinghaus, Anja T1 - A score regarding the need for assistance - considering pedestrians with impairments in evacuation planning N2 - The capabilities of pedestrians for evacuation have a significant impact on the time required to reach a safe place. Usually, the evacuation is split into two main stages: pre-movement-phase and movement-phase. For both a large number of studies investigate different representations of behaviour and impacts. But the influence of impairments is usually not taken into account. In addition, most of the scientific researches focus the investigation of the movement phase. This publication presents a novel approach to score the need for assistance and to estimate the effect on evacuation performance. The proposed score considers characteristic impairments in three dimensions of behaviour: reception, perception and realisation. In an unannounced evacuation training in a sheltered workshop, the evacuation behaviour and pre-movement phase were analysed. The analysis indicates that the pre-movement time depends on the kind of impairment as well as on organisational boundaries. Despite the special needs for assistance, the evacuation process in a sheltered workshop is quite similar to other sub-populations. T2 - 5.

The tanks were installed in the space normally reserved for the spare tyre, in the car boot. No safety device was installed on the tank, in order to force critical failure of the cylinder. Two of the cars were equipped with a tank filled with liquefied propane to a level of 20 % (5.3 kg), the third one was filled completely (25.5 kg). The partially filled tanks failed critically within a time period of more than 20 min after the initiation of the fire. The fully-filled tank did not rupture; the propane was released continuously through a small leak that appeared during the fire. Comprehensive equipment was used to procure measurement data, enabling an analysis of potential consequences and hazards to humans and infrastructure within the vehicle surroundings. The inner status of the tank (pressure, temperature of the liquid phase and the steel casing), the development of the fire (temperature inside and around the vehicle) and the pressure induced in the near-field in case of tank rupture were recorded. The results were analysed in detail and compared against the data gained in tests involving sole, but identical LPG tanks.

T1 - Experimental and numerical investigation of enclosure fires - Application to room fires and intermediate scale tests N2 - One of our research topics focus on fire in residential buildings because approximately 80% of all fire fatalities in Europe occur in residential building fires. The aim is to identify critical fire scenarios and to model these fire scenarios with experimental and numerical methods. We perform a wide ränge of reaction-to-fire tests and use different Software tools to simulate fires. Another field of research is fire-safety of escape and rescue routes, because in case of fire, smoke in staircases can be a serious problem. In 2005, 8 people died in Berlin during a staircase fire which was caused by arson. A stroller had been ignited and the resulting smoke filled the staircase quickly. The wooden staircase also was involved in the fire. Several inhabitants tried to leave their flats via the staircase and were trapped.
