T1 - Pandora’s Box–Influence of Contour Parameters on Roughness and Subsurface Residual Stresses in Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Ti-6Al-4V JF - Materials N2 - The contour scan strategies in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) of Ti-6Al-4V were studied at the coupon level. These scan strategies determined the surface qualities and subsurface residual stresses. The correlations to these properties were identified for an optimization of the LPBF processing. The surface roughness and the residual stresses in build direction were linked: combining high laser power and high scan velocities with at least two contour lines substantially reduced the surface roughness, expressed by the arithmetic mean height, from values as high as 30 μm to 13 μm, while the residual stresses rose from ~340 to about 800 MPa. At this stress level, manufactured rocket fuel injector components evidenced macroscopic cracking. A scan strategy completing the contour region at 100 W and 1050 mm/s is recommended as a compromise between residual stresses (625 MPa) and surface quality (14.2 μm). The LPBF builds were monitored with an in-line twin-photodiode-based melt pool monitoring (MPM) system, which revealed a correlation between the intensity quotient I2/I1, the surface roughness, and the residual stresses. Thus, this MPM system can provide a predictive estimate of the surface quality of the samples and resulting residual stresses in the material generated during LPBF.

It was found that both the degree of anisotropy, and the orientation of the permeability and meso-structure are similar, but not identical. We confirm that the morphological anisotropy of cordierite materials is weak, and clearly influenced by the extrusion process that determines the main direction of anisotropy. Properties of the autocorrelation function are discussed and it is shown why estimating the characteristic length of real meso-structures (grain or ?pore? size) is not possible. Finally, we show that the autocorrelation function applied on grey-level images can give a good estimate of the degree of anisotropy even with limited resolution.

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).
