T1 - Spatiotemporal Evolution of Stress Field during Direct Laser Deposition of Multilayer Thin Wall of Ti-6Al-4V N2 - The present work seeks to extend the level of understanding of the stress field evolution during direct laser deposition (DLD) of a 3.2 mm thick multilayer wall of Ti-6Al-4V alloy by theoretical and experimental studies. The process conditions were close to the conditions used to produce large-sized structures by the DLD method, resulting in specimens having the same thermal history. A simulation procedure based on the implicit finite element method was developed for the theoretical study of the stress field evolution. The accuracy of the simulation was significantly improved by using experimentally obtained temperature-dependent mechanical properties of the DLD-processed Ti-6Al4V alloy. The residual stress field in the buildup was experimentally measured by neutron diffraction. The stress-free lattice parameter, which is decisive for the measured stresses, was determined using both a plane stress approach and a force-momentum balance. The influence of the inhomogeneity of the residual stress field on the accuracy of the experimental measurement and the validation of the simulation procedure are analyzed and discussed. Based on the numerical results it was found that the non-uniformity of the through-thickness stress distribution reaches a maximum in the central cross-section, while at the buildup ends the stresses are distributed almost uniformly. The components of the principal stresses are tensile at the buildup ends near the substrate. Furthermore, the calculated equivalent plastic strain reaches 5.9% near the buildup end, where the deposited layers are completed, while the plastic strain is practically equal to the experimentally measured ductility of the DLD-processed alloy, which is 6.2%. The experimentally measured residual stresses obtained by the force-momentum balance and the plane stress approach differ slightly from each other.

In the present study, a laboratory scale test specimen (slotted sample with 400 mm width, 400 mm length and 25 mm thickness) was used to simulate thick-walled component welds made of 13CrMoV9-10. The aim was to identify the level and distribution of residual stresses to evaluate the suitability of the specimen for laboratory based SRC testing. High restraint was ensured by the specimen geometry with a narrow welding gap in the center. This gap was filled by multi-layer submerged arc welding. Two specimens were welded with identical parameters and compared in the as-welded state and after PWHT (705 °C for 10 h). Neutron diffraction was used to determine the residual stresses in the weld metal, the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and the base material at different depths longitudinal, transverse, and normal to the welding direction. The experiments were performed on the former instrument E3 of the research reactor BER II of Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB), Germany. Complementarily, laboratory X-ray diffraction was applied to characterize the surface residual stresses. In the welded condition, especially in the weld metal and the adjacent HAZ, the longitudinal residual stresses reached values of up to 1,000 MPa to 1,200 MPa due to the increasing strength and hardness of the CrMoV-material during welding. The conducted welding experiments revealed that way higher residual stresses in the welded joint have to anticipated before the PWHT is performed than it was expected in advance. This demonstrated the necessity of suitable component-like welding tests as they must ensure realistic mechanical stiffness (hindered shrinkage of welding joint by slotted self-restraint sample) and heat dissipation conditions (definition of minimum welding joint thickness vs. welding process-specific heat input).
