T1 - Einfluss thermischer und optischer Materialeigenschaften auf die Charakterisierung von Fehlstellen in Faserverbundwerkstoffen mit aktiven Thermografieverfahren T1 - Influence of thermal and optical material properties on the characterization of defects in fiber reinforced composites with active thermography methods N2 - In diesem Beitrag werden zerstörungsfreie Untersuchungen mittels aktiver Thermografie an Probekörpern aus CFK und GFK mit unterschiedlichen künstlichen Fehlstellen vorgestellt. Dabei wird die zeitliche und örtliche Temperaturverteilung nach der Erwärmung mit Blitzlampen oder mit einem Infrarot-Strahler mit einer Infrarot-Kamera erfasst. Zur späteren Rekonstruktion der Messdaten wurde ein numerisches Modell entwickelt. Dazu war die Bestimmung der thermophysikalischen und optischen Materialeigenschaften erforderlich, was in diesem Beitrag ebenfalls beschrieben wird. Die Ergebnisse der numerischen Modellierung werden mit den experimentellen Untersuchungen der aktiven Thermografie verglichen. Weiterhin werden die experimentellen Untersuchungen hinsichtlich der beiden Materialsysteme CFK und GFK und unter Berücksichtigung der Teiltransparenz des GFK-Materials sowie der unterschiedlichen Anregungsquellen bewertet. N2 - This paper presents results of the non-destructive evaluation of CFRP and GFRP test specimens with various artificial defects using active thermography. After heating the specimens with flash lamps or with an infrared radiator, the temporal and spatial resolved temperature distribution is recorded with an infrared camera. For the reconstruction of the experimental data, a numerical model was developed. For the numerical simulations, the thermal and optical material parameters had to be determined, which is described in this contribution as well. The results of numerical modelling are compared to experimental data of active thermography. Additionally, the experimental results are assessed related to the two materials CFRP and GFRP by considering the partial transmissivity of the GFRP material, and to the different excitation sources.

Die für eine optimale Umsetzung relevanten Randbedingungen werden aktuell in der Fachwelt diskutiert. In dieser Veröffentlichung werden die Ergebnisse eines Forschungsprojekts vorgestellt, das die Wirkung verschiedener Einflussgrößen bei der Wärmebehandlung auf die Eigenschaften von UHFB zum Thema hatte. Dabei wurden die Art des Schutzes gegen das Austrocknen, die Vorlagerungszeit und die Haltezeit variiert. Um die zugrunde liegenden Prozesse zu verstehen, wurde der Phasenbestand mittels Röntgendiffraktometrie untersucht. Die höchsten Druckfestigkeiten des UHFB ließen sich bei einer Wärmebehandlung mit Wasserlagerung erzielen, da hierbei eine weitere Hydratation begünstigt wird. Vergleichsweise niedriger waren die Steigerungen bei einer Behandlung mit Schutz vor Austrocknung, während eine ungeschützte Behandlung zu deutlich geringeren Festigkeiten führte. Die Vorlagerungszeit beträgt im Idealfall einige Tage, um die Ausbildung eines offenbar günstigen Ausgangsgefüges sicherzustellen. Die Haltezeit sollte möglichst ausgedehnt sein, weil die Hydratation entsprechend lange gefördert wird. Im oberflächennahen Bereich war unter bestimmten Bedingungen eine Zonierung zu beobachten, deren Ursachen und Folgen, insbesondere in Bezug auf die Dauerhaftigkeit, weitere Forschung erfordern.

We stress that the raw EBSD signal carries additional information which is useful beyond the conventional orientation determination. The background signal underlying the backscattered Kikuchi diffraction (BKD) patterns reflects the chemical composition and surface topography but also contains channeling-in information which is used for qualitative real-time orientation imaging using various backscattered electron signals. A significantly improved orientation precision can be achieved when dynamically simulated pattern are matched to the experimental BKD patterns. The breaking of Friedel’s rule makes it possible to obtain orientation mappings with respect to the point-group symmetries. Finally, we discuss the determination of lattice parameters from individual BKD patterns. Subgrain structure in a single quartz grain. The increased noise level in the left map reflects the lower precision of a standard orientation determination using band detection by the Hough transform. The right map results from the same experimental raw data after orientation refinement using a pattern matching approach.

T1 - Ellipsometric porosimetry on pore-controlled TiO2 layers N2 - The practical performance of surface coatings in applications like catalysis, water splitting or batteries depends critically on the coating materials’ porosity. Determining the porosity in a fast and nondestructive way is still an unsolved problem for industrial thin-films technology. As a contribution to calibrated, non-destructive, optical layer characterisation, we present a multi-method comparison study on porous TiO2 films deposited by sol-gel synthesis on Si wafers. The ellipsometric data were collected on a range of samples with different TiO2 layer thickness and different porosity values. These samples were produced by templated sol-gel synthesis resulting in layers with a well-defined pore size and pore density. The ellipsometry measurement data were analysed by means of a Bruggeman effective medium approximation (BEMA), with the aim to determine the mixture ratio of void and matrix material by a multi-sample analysis strategy. This analysis yielded porosities and layer thicknesses for all samples as well as the dielectric function for the matrix material. Following the idea of multi-method techniques in metrology, the data was referenced to imaging by electron microscopy (SEM) and to a new EPMA (electron probe microanalysis) porosity approach for thin film analysis. This work might lead to a better metrological understanding of optical porosimetry and also to better-qualified characterisation methods for nano-porous layer systems. 1. IntroductionPorous materials, especially porous thin films play an importantrole in chemical and physical technology in every case where thecontact area between two media has to be maximised. From cataly-sis to photochemistry and photovoltaics, the applications of porouslayer materials are diverse and numerous [1–6].The accurate and non-destructive characterisation of porousfilms for layered systems poses a challenge. This applies especiallyfor the key parameter of porous films, their porosity, i.e. the mix-ing ratio between the Matrix of the film (host material) and thepore volume which is empty or filled with a fluid medium (inclu-sions). This parameter influences most of the physical and chemicalproperties of a porous thin film and is therefore essential for theunderstanding as well as the optimisation of this class of materials.

The key performance indicator electrical deposition efficiency is applied to reflect the energy efficiency of GMAW in different material transfer modes. Additionally, the wall-plug efficiency of the equipment is determined in order to identify the overall energy consumption. The results show that energy efficiency can be increased by 24% and welding time is reduced over 50% by application of the tandem processes. A comparative life cycle assessment of a 30-mm-thick weld is conducted to investigate the influences of the energy efficiency on the environmental impacts. The environmental impacts on the categories global warming potential, acidification potential, eutrophication potential, and photochemical ozone creation potential can be reduced up to 11% using an energy-efficient TGMAW process.

With growing material strength, the challenge for welding fabrication increases, since high loading capacities and safety requirements have to be accomplished. The utilisation of the high strength potential often requires complex constructions associated with high restraint conditions while welding. Increased residual stresses may occur due to superimposing reaction and restraint stresses, which have to be quantified and evaluated to ensure the safety and integrity of high-strength steel constructions. Particularly, the scope of residual stresses has to be taken into account for different effects in the HAZ, notches, weld and base metal. Commonly, conservative assumptions of residual stresses lead to distinct underestimations of the load bearing capacity particularly for welded high-strength steel constructions. This study concludes results of recent works of the researchers regarding the complex interaction among heat control, material and restraint intensity on the residual stress state in welded components. These analyses are extended by further experiments. Based on the obtained major effects, an approach for a welding residual stress assessment regarding component design according to prevailing standards for crane construction, an important application for high-strength steels, is presented.

T1 - Enhanced electrochemical performance of nickel-cobalt-oxide@reduced graphene oxide//activated carbon asymmetric supercapacitors by the addition of a redox-active electrolyte N2 - Supercapacitors are an emerging energy-storage system with a wide range of potential applications. In this study, highly porous nickel-cobalt-oxide@reduced graphene oxide (Ni-Co-O@RGO-s) nanosheets were synthesized as an active material for supercapacitors using a surfactant-assisted microwave irradiation technique. The RGO-modified nanocomposite showed a larger specific area, better conductivity, and lower resistivity than the unmodified nanocomposite because the RGO facilitated faster ion diffusion/transport for improved redox activity. The synergistic effect of Ni-Co-O@RGO-s resulted in a high capacitance of 1903 F/g (at 0.8 A/g) in a mixed KOH/redox active K3Fe(CN)6 electrolyte. The asymmetric Ni-Co-O@RGO-s//AC supercapacitor device yielded a high energy density and power density of 39 Wh/kg and 7500 W/kg, respectively. The porous structure and combination of redox couples from both the electrode and electrolyte provided a highly synergistic effect, which improved the performance of the supercapacitor device.

Different material transfer modes and power levels for single wire GMAW (SGMAW) and tandem GMAW (TGMAW) are evaluated by means of the indicator electrical deposition efficiency. Furthermore, the wall-plug efficiency of the equipment is measured in order to describe the total energy consumption from the electricity grid. The results show that the energy efficiency is highly affected by the respective process and can be significantly enhanced by a TGMAW process. The wall-plug efficiency of the equipment shows no significant dependency on the power range or the material transfer mode. Moreover, the method of life cycle assessment (LCA) is adopted in order to investigate the influences of energy efficient welding on the environmental impacts. In the comparative LCA study, the demand of electrical energy is reduced up to 24%. In consequence, the indicator values for global warming potential (100), acidification potential, eutrophication potential, and photochemical ozone creation potential are reduced up to 11%.

The test is of greatest importance for pipe and blow molding types of polyethylene, high density (PE-HD). Usually the full-notch creep test is applied as a standardized testing method (ISO 16770) using a few universal liquid media, such as solutions of Arkopal N 100. In our study, selected relevant polyethylene, high density materials are investigated also in real media – practical formulations as well as representative pure chemicals – and influences of temperature and geometry of specimen and notch are explicitly addressed. Furthermore, the investigations comprise also the environmental stress cracking behavior of polyethylene, high density in media that are sorbed to a significant extent – examples are diesel and biodiesel – based on comparison with samples previously saturated with those media. Thus, also the underlying diffusion controlled sorption process has to be assessed before. The investigations were performed using a full-notch creep testing device with 12 individual sub-stations, each equipped with individual electronic stress and temperature control and continuous online monitoring of the specimen elongation. N2 - Der Kriechversuch an Probekörpern mit umlaufender Kerbe (FNCT) wird flächendeckend angewendet, um das Verhalten von Polyolefinen sowohl gegenüber langsamen Risswachstums (SCG) bei Kontakt mit „inerten“ Medien als auch gegenüber umgebungsbedingtem Spannungsrisswachstum (ESC), bei welchem das umgebende Medium entscheidenden Einfluss auf den Schädigungsmechanismus und die Standzeit hat, zu charakterisieren. Der Test ist von großer Bedeutung bei der Analyse von hochdichten Polyethylen-Typen, die als Rohr- und Blasformwerkstoffe angewendet werden – dabei besonders für Transport und Verpackung von Gefahrstoffen, aber auch für weitere Hochleistungsanwendungen. Üblicherweise wird der Kriechversuch an Probekörpern mit umlaufender Kerbe als Normmethode (ISO 16770) unter Verwendung einiger weniger universeller Modellflüssigkeiten, wie z. B. Arkopal N 100, durchgeführt. In dieser Studie werden ausgewählte, marktrelevante Polyethylen-Werkstoffe hoher Dichte in realen Medien – praktisch verwendete Gefahrgüter sowie repräsentative reine Chemikalien – untersucht und explizit die Einflüsse von Temperatur und Prüfkörper- sowie Kerbgeometrie adressiert. Weiterhin beinhalten die Untersuchungen die Analyse des umgebungsbedingten Spannungsriss-Verhaltens von Polyethylen hoher Dichte in Medien, die maßgeblich vom Werkstoff sorbiert sind – beispielsweise mit Kraftstoffen wie diesel und biodiesel – basierend auf dem Vergleich mit vorgesättigten Probekörpern. Der dabei vorliegende diffusionsgesteuerte Sorptionsprozess muss dementsprechend zuvor evaluiert werden. Alle Untersuchungen wurden mithilfe einer Kriechversuchsanlage an Probekörpern mit umlaufender Kerbe mit 12 Stationen durchgeführt, welche jeweils mit einer individuell ansteuerbaren elektronischen Spannungs- und Temperatursteuerung sowie fortwährender Online-Überwachung der Prüfkörperdehnung ausgestattet sind.

Dies führt oft zu einer Vermin-derung der Lebensdauer von 30 auf 10 bis 15 Jahre. Trotz umfassender Untersuchungen wurde die Ursache bis jetzt nicht eindeutig geklärt, jedoch scheint die Alkali-Kieselsäure-Reaktion (AKR) hierbei eine Rolle zu spielen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurden AKR-Performance-Tests entwickelt, die jedoch die mechanischen Einwirkungen aus Klima und Ver-kehr nicht berücksichtigen. Aus diesem Grund wurde eine AKR-Forschergruppe von der Deutschen Forschungsgemein-schaft ins Leben gerufen, welche sich experimentell und auf Simulationsebene mit diesem Thema befasst. Inhalt dieses Beitrages sind ausgewählte Ergebnisse des an der BAM bear-beiteten experimentellen Projektteils, welche in eine auf die Auswirkung einer mechanischen Degradation fokussierte Promotionsarbeit einfließen. Ziel der ausgewählten Untersuchung ist es, den Einfluss einer mechanisch induzierten Betondegradation auf den Stofftrans-port herauszuarbeiten. Hierzu wird ein großformatiger Balken einem zyklischen Vier-Punkt Biegezugversuch mit einer Anzahl von 5 Mio. Lastwechseln unterzogen. Während des Versuches findet ein Schadensmonitoring mit verschiedenen zerstörungsfreien Prüftechniken statt. Hierzu zählen Deh-nungsmessungen, Schallemissionsanalyse und Ultraschall-messungen. Nach dem zyklischen Belastungs-versuch werden kleinformatige Probekörper aus dem belasteten Balken entnommen. Als Referenz dienen unbelas-tete Probekörper aus der gleichen Herstellungscharge. Die Oberflächen der entnommenen Probekörper werden in einem kapillaren Saugversuch zum einen mit deionisiertem Wasser und zum anderen mit einer 3,6 %igen NaCl-Lösung beauf-schlagt. Während der Saugversuche dienen verschiedene zerstörungsfreie bzw. -arme Messmethoden dazu, die Feuch-teaufnahme bzw. -verteilung in den Probekörpern zu messen. Hierzu gehören neben der Gravimetrie die Messung mit NMR (Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance) sowie TDR (Time-Domain-Reflectometry). Nach den Saugversuchen wird die Na- und Cl-Verteilung an den mit NaCl-Lösung beaufschlagten Pro-bekörpern zerstörend mittels LIBS (Laser-Induced-Breakdown-Spectroscopy) ermittelt. Erste Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die zyklische Ermüdungsdegradation den Stofftransport tendenziell verstärkt.

The heat flux was described with a Gaussian function where two parameters required to be estimated: process efficiency and radial distribution. An inverse heat transfer problem (ihtp) has been developed in the aim to estimate these parameters from experimental data. Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was used as the regularization method in addition to an iterative process. The experiment consisted in a static spot weld with GTAW process. The weld spot was on for 5 s under Argon shielding gas, 2.4 mm pure tungsten electrode on a SS304L disc. Temperatures were measured with thermocouples and weld pool growth monitored with a high speed camera. The experimental data were used to solve the ihtp what led to values such as 0.7 for process efficiency and average radial distribution of 1.8 mm.

T1 - Evaluation of fiber orientation in a composite and its effect on material behavior N2 - The reinforcement of concrete with polymer fibers provides resistance to crack formation. The orientation distribution of these fibers has a significant influence on the mechanical behavior of the material. To optimize material performance, micromechanical models that are capable of making accurate predictions of the mechanical behavior of composite materials are needed. These models must be calibrated using experimental results from microstructural characterization. For the fiber orientation distribution analysis in the present study, computed tomography (CT) data were used to evaluate the properties of a fiber-reinforced cement mortar. The results have indicated that the fibers in this material have highly anisotropic orientation characteristics and that there is a clear tendency for the polymer fibers to agglomerate during mixing and casting. The incorporation of this experimental data into micromechanical models will increase the accuracy of those models for material simulation and optimization.

It was found that on a stainless steel substrate the metal cations Al+,Li+, Na+, Cu+and Ag+formed polystyrene adducts, whereas K+, Cs+, Ba2+, Cr3+, Pd2+, In3+, or their lower oxidation states, did not. For the copper and silver substrates, PS and DCTB adduct formation with cations liberated from these target plate materials was observed upon addition of a cationizing agent, which indicates the occurrence of redox reactions between the added TFA salts and the target plate material. Judging from their standard electrode potentials, these redox reactions would not normally occur, i.e.,they require an additional energy input, strongly suggesting that the observed redox reactions are laser-induced. Furthermore, copper granules were found to successfully sequester PS from a tetrahydrofuran(THF) solution, consistent with the view complex formation with the copper target plate can take place prior to the MALDI-MS measurement.

T1 - Excitation energy dependence of the photoluminescence quantum yield of core/shell CdSe/CdS quantum dots and correlation with circular dichroism N2 - Quantum dot (QD) based nanomaterials are very promising materials for the fabrication of optoelectronic devices like solar cells, light emitting diodes (LEDs), and photodetectors as well as as reporters for chemo- and biosensing and bioimaging. Many of These applications involve the monitoring of changes in photoluminescence intensity and energy transfer processes which can strongly depend on excitation wavelength or energy. In this work, we analyzed the excitation energy dependence (EED) of the photoluminescence quantum yields (PL QYs) and decay kinetics and the circular dichroism (CD) spectra of CdSe/CdS core/shell QDs with different thicknesses of the surface passivation shell. Our results demonstrate a strong correlation between the spectral position of local maxima observed in the EED of PL QY and the zero-crossing points of the CD profiles. Theoretical analysis of the energy band structure of the QDs with effective mass approximation suggests that these structures could correspond to exciton energy levels. This underlines the potential of CD spectroscopy for the study of electronic energy structure of chiroptically active nanocrystals which reveal quantum confinement effects.

A1 - Resch-Genger, Ute T1 - Excitation power dependent population pathways and absolute quantum yields of upconversion nanoparticles in different solvents N2 - The rational design of brighter upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) requires a better understanding of the radiationless deactivation pathways in these materials. Here, we demonstrate the potential of excitation power density (P)-dependent studies of upconversion (UC) luminescence intensities, slope factors, and absolute quantum yields (ΦUC) of popular β-NaYF4:20% Yb3+,2% Er3+ UCNPs of different surface chemistries in organic solvents, D2O, and water as a tool to gain deeper insight into the UC mechanism including population and deactivation pathways particularly of the red emission. Our measurements, covering a P regime of three orders of magnitude, reveal a strong difference of the P-dependence of the ratio of the green and red luminescence bands (Ig/r) in water and organic solvents and P-dependent population pathways of the different emissive energy levels of Er3+. In summary, we provide experimental evidence for three photon processes in UCNPs, particularly for the red emission. Moreover, we demonstrate changes in the excited population dynamics via bi- and triphotonic processes dependent on the environment, surface chemistry, and P, and validate our findings theoretically KW - Upconverion KW - Quantum Yield KW - Photo physics PY - 2017 UR - http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2017/nr/c7nr00092h DO - https://doi.org/10.1039/c7nr00092h SN - 2040-3364 SN - 2040-3372 VL - 9 IS - 12 SP - 4283 EP - 4294 PB - The Royal Society of Chemistry AN - OPUS4-39849 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Geißler, Daniel A1 - Würth, Christian A1 - Wolter, C.

A1 - Resch-Genger, Ute T1 - Excitation wavelength dependence of the photoluminescence quantum yield and decay behavior of CdSe/CdS quantum dot/quantum rods with different aspect ratios N2 - The excitation wavelength (lexc) dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (FPL) and decay behavior (tPL) of a series of CdSe/CdS quantum dot/Quantum rods (QDQRs), consisting of the same spherical CdSe core and rod-shaped CdS shells, with aspect ratios ranging from 2 to 20 was characterized. lexc between 400–565 nm were chosen to cover the first excitonic absorption band of the CdSe core material, the onset of absorption of the CDs shell, and the region of predominant shell absorption. A strong lexc dependence of relative and absolutely measured FPL and tPL was found particularly for the longer QDQRs with higher aspect ratios. This is attributed to combined contributions from a length-dependent shell-to-core exciton localization efficiency, an increasing number of defect states within the shell for the longest QDQRs, and probably also the presence of absorbing, yet non-emitting shell material. Although the FPL values of the QDQRs decrease at shorter wavelength, the extremely high extinction coefficients introduced by the shell outweigh this effect, leading to significantly higher brightness values at wavelengths below the absorption onset of the CdS Shell compared with direct excitation of the CdSe cores. Moreover, our results present also an interesting example for the comparability of absolutely measured FPL using an integrating sphere setup and FPL values measured relative to common FPL standards, and underline the Need for a correction for particle scattering for QDQRs with high aspect ratios.

Both alloys contain globular graphite nodules but the first one has a ferritic structure while the second one has an austenitic crystal structure. In particular, the influences of the HCF frequency, of the HCF loading amplitude and of the location of the superposed HCF cycles have been investigated. It was observed that the HCF frequency has a limited impact on the fatigue life. On the other side, the HCF-strain amplitude has a highly non-linear influence on the fatigue life. The experimental results can be understood in terms of a fracture mechanics based damage mechanism: Cracks quickly initiate due to the TMF loading and the growth of the cracks up to a few mm controls the fatigue life. If HCF-loading cycles are superposed, cyclic crack propagation dramatically accelerates after a threshold has been reached. This threshold is regarded as controlling the fatigue life reduction. The previous ideas have been expressed in a model that can be very simply applied to estimate the fatigue life reduction ratio due to the superposed HCF cycles. It only contains two adjustable parameters and can be combined with any TMF life assessment model.
