A1 - Bruno, Giovanni T1 - Nonlinearities based inverse approach for the characterisation of the damage evaluation process in very high cycle fatigued CFRP specimens N2 - This paper focuses on the aspect on how damage evolution processes in composite materials and structures including matrix fracture, delamination, fibre-matrix debonding, and fibre fracture can be detected by taking advantage of the material’s inherit mechanical properties. These properties can be described on the basis of non-linear mechanical phenomena measurable as an inert frequency response signal. The approach is proposed as a means for residual life structural assessment specifically in the context of VHCF.

T1 - Röntgen-Computertomographie-Verfahren zur quantitativen Charakterisierung periodischer Minimalflächenstrukturen (TMPS) N2 - Additiv gefertigte (AM) dreifach periodische metallische minimale Oberflächenstrukturen (TPMSS, aus dem Englischen Triply Periodic Minimum Surface Structures) erfüllen mehrere Anforderungen sowohl im biomedizinischen als auch im technischen Bereich: Abstimmbare mechanische Eigenschaften, geringe Empfindlichkeit gegenüber Herstellungsfehlern, mechanische Stabilität und hohe Energieabsorption. Allerdings stellen sie auch einige Herausforderungen in Bezug auf die Qualitätskontrolle dar, die ihre erfolgreiche Anwendung verhindern können. Tatsächlich ist die Optimierung des AM-Prozesses ohne die Berücksichtigung struktureller Merkmale wie Fertigungsgenauigkeit, interne Defekte sowie Oberflächentopographie und -rauheit unmöglich. In dieser Studie wurde die quantitative zerstörungsfreie Analyse von Ti-6Al-4V-Legierung TPMSS mit Hilfe der Röntgen-Computertomographie (XCT) durchgeführt. Es werden mehrere neue Bildanalyse-Workflows vorgestellt, um die Auswirkungen der Aufbaurichtung auf die Wanddickenverteilung, die Wanddegradation und die Verringerung der Oberflächenrauheit aufgrund des chemischen Ätzens von TPMSS zu bewerten. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Herstellungsgenauigkeit für die Strukturelemente, die parallel und orthogonal zu den hergestellten Schichten gedruckt werden, unterschiedlich ist. Verschiedene Strategien für das chemische Ätzen zeigten unterschiedliche Pulverabtragsfähigkeiten und damit ein Gradient der Wanddicke. Dies wirkte sich auf die mechanische Leistung unter Druck durch die Verringerung der Streckspannung aus. Eine positive Auswirkung des chemischen Ätzens ist die Verringerung der Oberflächenrauhigkeit, die möglicherweise die Ermüdungseigenschaften der Bauteile verbessern kann. Schließlich wurde XCT eingesetzt, um die Menge des zurückgehaltenen Pulvers mit der Porengröße des TPMSS zu korrelieren, wodurch der Herstellungsprozess weiter verbessert werden kann.

T1 - Procedures to Quantitatively Characterize Morphological Features of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures N2 - Additively manufactured (AM) metallic sheet-based Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures (TPMSS) meet several requirements in both bio-medical and engineering fields: Tunable mechanical properties, low sensitivity to manufacturing defects, mechanical stability, and high energy absorption. However, they also present some challenges related to quality control. In fact, the optimization of both the AM process and the properties of TPMSS is impossible without considering structural characteristics as manufacturing accuracy, internal defects, and as well as surface topography and roughness. In this study, the quantitative non-destructive analysis of TPMSS manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V alloy by electron beam melting was performed by means of laboratory X-ray computed tomography (XCT).

In fact, optimization of the AM process is impossible without considering structural features such as manufacturing accuracy, internal defects, and surface topography and roughness. In this study, quantitative nondestructive analysis of Ti-6Al-4V alloy TPMSS was performed using X-ray computed tomography (XCT). Several new image analysis workflows are presented to evaluate the effects of buildup direction on wall thickness distribution, wall degradation, and surface roughness reduction due to chemical etching of TPMSS. It is shown that the fabrication accuracy is different for the structural elements printed parallel and orthogonal to the fabricated layers. Different strategies for chemical etching showed different powder removal capabilities and thus a gradient in wall thickness. This affected the mechanical performance under compression by reducing the yield stress. A positive effect of chemical etching is the reduction of surface roughness, which can potentially improve the fatigue properties of the components. Finally, XCT was used to correlate the amount of powder retained with the pore size of the TPMSS, which can further improve the manufacturing process.

T1 - A paradigm shift in the description of creep in metals can only occur through multi-scale imaging N2 - The description of creep in metals has reached a high level of complexity; fine details are revealed by all sorts of characterization techniques and different theoretical models. However, to date virtually no fully microstructure-driven quantitative description of the phenomenon is available. This has brought to interesting inconsistencies; the classic description of (secondary) creep rests on the so-called power law, which however: a- has a pre-factor spanning over 10 orders of magnitude; b- has different reported exponents for the same material; c- has no explanation for the values of such exponents. Recently, a novel description (the so-called Solid State Transformation Creep (SSTC) Model) has been proposed to tackle the problem under a different light. The model has two remarkable features: 1- it describes creep as the accumulation of elementary strains due to dislocation motion; 2- it predicates that creep is proceeding by the evolution of a fractal arrangement of dislocations. Such description, however, needs a great deal of corroborating evidence, and indeed, is still incomplete. To date, we have been able to observe and somehow quantify the fractal arrangement of microstructures through Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), observe the accumulation of dislocations at grain boundaries by EBSD-KAM (Electron Back-Scattered Diffraction-Kernel Angular Misorientation) analysis, quantify the kinetic character (solid state transformation) of experimental creep curves, and estimate the sub-grain size of the fractal microstructure through X-ray refraction techniques. All pieces of the mosaic seem to yield a consistent picture: we seem being on the right path to reconstruct the whole elephant by probing single parts of it. What is still missing is the bond between the various scales of investigation.

Wir zeigen, dass die Labor-Röntgenrefraktionstopographie (XRRT) und die Synchrotron-Röntgenrefraktionsradiographie (SRRR) außergewöhnliche Werkzeuge zur Untersuchung von Schädigungen und inneren Defekten (Poren, Mikrorisse) in leichten Materialien wie Keramiken und Kompositen sind. Tatsächlich nutzen diese Techniken den an Grenzflächen auftretenden Röntgenbrechungseffekt aus, um den Kontrast zwischen dem (schwach absorbierenden) Objekt und dem Hintergrund zu erhöhen. Dies ermöglicht die Erkennung sehr kleiner Objekte (sogar bis zu 1 nm Rissöffnung) und die Quantifizierung ihrer spezifischen Oberfläche, die mit ihrem Einfluss auf die Materialeigenschaften korreliert. Wir zeigen die folgenden Anwendungen: a) Quantifizierung der Faserentbindung in laminaten Epoxid-Kohlenstoff-Verbundwerkstoffen; b) Mapping der Porengröße in gesinterten Keramiken; c) Eindringstiefe von Aschen in Keramikschutzschichten; d) Quantifizierung der Porenorientierung in Diesel Partikelfiltern; e) 3D-Darstellung von Makrorissen und Faserentbindung in Verbundwerkstoffen auf Ti-Basis für Anwendungen in der Luft- und Raumfahrt (unter Verwendung von Röntgenrefraktionstomographie).

A overview of the common reconstruction approach and of the artifacts that can occur during reconstruction or acquisition of XCT images is also given. Finally, application examples in the field of construction materials are given, whereby several experimental techniques (Region of Interest Approach) and data analysis methods (e.g. Digital volume correlation) are explained. Such techniques and algorithms are used to extract quantitative information from ex- and in-situ experiments.

However, there are a few outstanding question: a) What are the material properties ? They certainly differ from literature values for conventional materials; b) How about the microstructure? It is different from conventional materials. Does it stay so with ageing? How does it form? c) Do we properly take residual stress into account? We often blame them for our ignorance about failure scenarios. d) Do we apply tailored heat treatments? Very often, we follow conventional schedules… This talk describes the summary of the efforts carried out within the BAM Project AGIL. At BAM, we aimed to thoroughly investigate the microstructure and how it evolves as a function of load and temperature (service), to determine the material properties after different process and service conditions, to properly determine residual stress and the way it impacts mechanical properties and component performance, to properly quantify the impact of (unavoidable?) defects, and to determine heat treatments tailored to the process-specific material (stress relieve, microstructure homogenization etc.). The Project AGIL was and is intimately coupled with the project ProMoAM, dealing with online monitoring of AM processes.

In particular, quantitative image analysis, statistical approaches, direct discretization of tomographic reconstructions represent concrete possibilities to extend the power of the tomographic 3D representation to insights into the material and component performance. This logic thread equally holds for industrial and academic research, and valorizes expensive experiments such as those carried out at synchrotron sources, which cannot be daily repeated. I will show a few examples of possible use of X-ray tomographic data for quantitative assessment of damage evolution and microstructural properties, as well as for non-destructive testing. Examples of micro-structured inhomogeneous materials will be given, such as Composites, Ceramics, Concrete, and Additively manufactured parts. I will also show how X-ray refraction computed tomography (CT) can be highly complementary to classic absorption CT, being sensitive to internal interfaces. Additionally, I will present a new technique in our portfolio, Neutron Diffraction, which is extremely well suited to the study of internal stresses, both residual and under external load.
