During manufacturing, defects can arise which could lead to failure of the whole component under dynamic mechanical and thermal loads. Hence during operation defects can arise which, if detected, can be repaired locally and in-situ by applying repair patches instead of taking the whole rotor blade down and repair it remotely. This method is much more time and cost effective, since the shut-down time of the energy converter is limited to a minimum. These repair patches can, however, also lead to new defects if not applied optimally. Therefore, it is necessary to control the quality of the repair patches to ensure the best possible restoration of structural integrity of the component. As a rotor blade is an object with a large aspect ratio, X-ray laminography is predestined to provide 3D information of the objective volume. To enhance the amount of information gained from laminographic reconstruction, we use in this study a photon counting and energy discriminating X-ray detector and apply a material decomposition algorithm to the data. By inherently separating the incident spectra within the detection process into two distinct energy bins, the basis material decomposition can provide material resolved images. Choosing glass and epoxy resin as basis materials and numerically solving the inverse dual-energy equation system, the reconstructed laminographic datasets contain highly valuable information about the distribution of the basis materials within the structure. Furthermore, cross- artifacts arising from the limited angle of the projection data can be reduced by this method which allows to investigate structures that were hidden underneath the artefacts.

T1 - Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung von Composite-Druckgefäßen mit konventioneller und hochfrequenter Wirbelstromtechnik N2 - Composite-Druckgefäße für den Gefahrguttransport sowie für Wasserstoff- und Erdgasfahrzeuge bestehen aus einem lasttragenden Composite und einer gasdichten, metallischen oder polymeren Barriereschicht (Liner). Zur Untersuchung des Alterungsverhaltens solcher Composite-Druckgefäße wurde in der BAM das interdisziplinäre Themenfeldprojekt COD-AGE durchgeführt. Ziel des Projektes war die Entwicklung von Methoden und Modellen zur Beschreibung und Bestimmung des Alterungsverhaltens von Carbonfaser-Compositen am Beispiel von Druckgefäßen, um eine bessere Vorhersage der Alterung und der sicheren Gebrauchsdauer zu ermöglichen. Ein Schwerpunkt in diesem Projekt war die Bereitstellung geeigneter ZfP-Methoden. Dabei ging es sowohl um versuchsbegleitende Prüfungen, als auch um die mögliche Entwicklung von Prüfeinrichtungen für den späteren praktischen Gebrauch. In dem Vortrag werden Prüfergebnisse der alterungsbegleitenden Wirbelstromprüfung an Composite-Druckgefäßen vorgestellt. In Alterungsversuchen wurden Druckgefäße aus einem ca. 4 mm dicken Aluminiumliner und ca. 8 mm dicker CFK-Ummantelung untersucht. Typisches Einsatzgebiet solcher Druckgefäße sind Atemschutzgeräte der Feuerwehr. Die Druckgefäße wurden sowohl mit konventioneller Wirbelstromtechnik von außen und von innen als auch mit hochfrequenter Wirbelstromtechnik von außen geprüft. Es konnten sowohl Beschädigungen des metallischen Liners, als auch Strukturen des CFK-Geflechts nachgewiesen werden. Eine besondere mechanische Herausforderung bestand in der Prüfung der Innenseite der Liner, da hier eine zylindrische Fläche mit einem Innendurchmesser von 150 mm durch einen Zugang von nur 15 mm Durchmesser geprüft werden muss.

The aim of the present work was its experimental and numerical investigation. To visualize the geometry of the melt pool in the longitudinal section a butt joint configuration of 15 mm thick structural steel and transparent quartz glass was used. The weld pool shape was recorded by means of a high-speed video camera and two thermal imaging MWIR and VIS cameras. The observations show that the dimensions of the weld pool vary depending on the depth. The regions close to the surface form a teardrop shaped weld pool. A bulge-region and its temporal evolution were observed approximately in the middle of the depth of the weld pool. Additionally, a transient numerical simulation was performed until reaching a steady state to obtain the weld pool shape and to understand the formation mechanism of the observed bulging phenomena. A fixed keyhole with an experimentally obtained shape was used to represent the full-penetration laser beam welding process. The model considers the local temperature field, the effects of phase transition, thermo-capillary convection, natural convection and temperature-dependent material properties up to evaporation temperature. It was found that the Marangoni convection and the movement of the laser heat source are the dominant factors for the formation of the bulging-region. Good correlation between the numerically calculated and the experimentally observed weld bead shapes and the time-temperature curves on the upper and bottom surface were found.

However, this ongoing trend leads to an increasing fuel consumption and thus to higher carbon dioxide emissions. In order to counteract these problems, hot stamping has been established in the automotive industry as a key technolo-gy for lightweight construction, regarding the manufacturing of safety-relevant car body compo-nents. Hot stamped parts are commonly made out of boron-manganese steel 22MnB5, which is initially austenized and subsequently formed and quenched in one process step. As a result, geo-metrical complex structures with an ultimate tensile strength of 1500 MPa are generated. The surfaces of the workpieces are coated with an Al-Si layer to avoid oxide scale formation and to ensure corrosion protection. However, the coating system leads to an increased adhesive wear on the tool surface due to the high thermo-mechanical tool stresses. Therefore, a time and cost con-suming rework of the hot stamping tools is required. The aim of this study is to increase the tribological performance of hot stamping tools by using a laser implantation process. This tech-nique allows the ma-nufacturing of separated, elevated and dome-shaped microstructures on the tool surface in consequence of a localized dispersing of hard ceramic particles by pulsed laser radiation. The generated surface features offer great potential for reducing the tribological load, due to their high hardness and wear resistance. For this purpose, the friction coefficient of un-modified and laser implanted tool surfaces were examined and compared by using a modified pin-on-disk test. In addition, the surfaces were analyzed by optical measurements in order to quantify the amount of wear.

It is based on previously obtained weld pool geometries from a steady-state thermo-fluid dynamics simulation. Hereby the weld pool dimensions are obtained under consideration of the most crucial physical phenomena, such as phase transformations, thermo-capillary convection, natural convection and temperature-dependent material properties. The algorithm provides a time and calibration efficient way for the reproduction of the weld pool shape by local Lamé curves. By adjusting their parameters, the identification of the finite elements located within the weld pool is enabled. The heat input due to the equivalent heat source is assured by replacing the detected nodes’ temperature by the melting temperature. The model offers variable parameters making it flexible and adaptable for a wide range of workpiece thicknesses and materials and allows for the investigation of transient thermal effects, e.g. the cooling stage of the workpiece. The calculation times remain acceptably short especially when compared to a fully coupled process simulation. The computational results are in good agreement with performed complete-penetration laser beam welding experiments.

Dabei bleiben Prozessrückstände wie Deinkingschlämme, Sortierrückstände und Faserreststoffe übrig. Zusammengefasst als Papierschlamm verwerten die Recycler diesen Reststoff thermisch in dezentralen Heizkraftwerken. Die dabei anfallende Papierasche hat mit den Anteilen der Hauptoxide von 59 M.-% CaO, 22 M.-% SiO2 und 13 M.-% Al2O3 eine ähnliche chemische Zusammensetzung wie Portlandzement, wobei sich die Mineralphasen unterscheiden. Durch eine Aktivierung der Papierasche können jedoch hydraulisch aktive Phasen wie Mayenit (C7A12) und Belit (C2S) erzeugt werden. Die Mineralphase Mayenit reagiert schnell mit Wasser zu Calciumaluminathydraten, wodurch der Bindemittelleim schnell ansteift. Die festigkeitsbildenden Calciumsilicathydrate (CSH) in Bindemittelleimen entstehen bei einer späteren Reaktion von Belit mit Wasser. Zur Aktivierung dient eine hydrothermale Calcinierung. Dabei wird Papierasche mit einer Aktivatorlösung (Wasser oder KOH) gemischt und bei 200 °C hydrothermal behandelt, wobei sich Hydratphasen ausbilden. Diese Zwischenprodukte dehydratisieren durch eine anschließende Calcinierung zu reaktiven Calciumsilicaten und Calciumaluminaten. Wie sich die Parameter des Aktivierungsprozesses auf die Mineralphasen auswirken, war Fokus der Untersuchungen. Mit thermogravimetrischen Analysen der Zwischenprodukte konnten die Reaktionsprodukte nach dem hydrothermalen Prozessschritt bestimmt werden. Den größten Einfluss auf den Mineralphasenbestand hat hierbei die Alkalität der Aktivatorlösung. Im zweiten Prozessschritt, der Calcinierung, ist die Temperatur der wesentliche Faktor für die Ausbildung reaktiver Phasen. Die Ergebnisse kalorimetrischer Untersuchungen an Leimen aus den calcinierten Proben dienten der Auswahl der optimalen Calcinierungstemperatur. Die gesamte Reaktionswärme war für die Proben, welche bei einer Calcinierungstemperatur zwischen 700-800 °C hergestellt wurden, am höchsten.

In L PBF processes several by-products including welding plume and its condensates, spatter and ejected powder are generated during laser exposure. Investigations of micro- and nano-sized by-products have received little attention in literature. This study focuses on the analysis of particle emissions in L PBF of 316L stainless steel using a scattered light aerosol spectrometer and a fast mobility particle sizer spectrometer during the process which allows for in-situ analysis of particle sizes in the range of 6 nm to 100 µm. A distinct correlation of emission signals to part position can be revealed. In addition, a significant influence of laser scanning vector directions on emission signals is presented. Furthermore, differing powder layer thicknesses can be recognised by deviations in emission signals.

More specifically, the determination of cyclic R-curves is discussed. This describes the dependency of the crack propagation threshold on crack growth during the short crack propagation stage. For metals, the threshold, starting at a material-intrinsic value, increases until it reaches a value independent of the crack length due to crack closure phenomena which build up at that stage. The cyclic R-curve, when used in the frame of a cyclic R curve analysis, characterizes the resistance of a material to fatigue crack growth and the ability to arrest a physically short crack. Thus, it is the link between classical fatigue and fracture mechanics. In the high-cycle-fatigue range, the short crack propagation stage dominates the overall lifetime, i.e., the number of cycles until failure. Below the fatigue limit crack arrest of hitherto propagable micro-cracks will occur. The effort for the experimental characterization of the short fatigue crack propagation behavior and the cyclic R-curve is very high compared to experiments on long crack propagation. A very exact measurement of crack extension is required, since small increments need to be depicted. Pre-cracking must leave a closure free initial crack, since closure must be build up only by the cyclic R-curve. The closure-free status is achieved by compression pre-cracking. The aim of the present study is an insight into the influence of an AM process on the short crack propagation threshold. Cyclic R-curves are experimentally determined at different load-ratios for 316L austenitic steel specimens produced by SLM and conventional manufacturing. Residual stresses are measured in the crack plane and their influence on the cyclic R-curve is discussed.

A1 - Hilgenberg, Kai T1 - On the influence of tib2, tic and tin hard particles on the microstructure of localized laser dispersed aisi d2 tool steel surfaces N2 - The control of friction and wear is a major concern in many industrial applications. A promising method for a tailored surface modification is the so-called laser implantation technique. This method combines surface texturing and material optimization in one processing step by a localized dispersing of hard ceramic particles using pulsed laser radiation. Wear resistant, protruding micrometric features (implants) with defined geometry can be created in deterministic pattern where needed on highly stressed surfaces, i.e. on forming or cutting tools. However, in order to maintain the implants over the tool’s lifetime, a suitable selection of hard ceramic particles is a prerequisite. They must provide a defect-free Metal Matrix Composite with a high share of homogeneously distributed particles and especially a high implant hardness. In this study TiN, TiC and TiB2 hard particles were compared as implant materials for the first time. By a systematic variation of the pulse power and pulse duration, their dispersing behavior and influence on the material properties of AISI D2 tool steel was investigated. Although all powder materials had grain sizes smaller than 10 µm, it was possible to disperse them by pulsed laser radiation and to obtain defect-free protruding implants. The highest share of dispersed particles (~64 %) was observed for TiB2. By scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, it was also shown that a significant share of the pre-placed particles was dissolved by the laser beam and precipitated as nanometer sized particles within the matrix during solidification. These in-situ formed particles have a decisive influence on the material properties. While the TiN and TiC implants have shown maximum hardness values of 750 HV1 and 850 HV1, the TiB2 implants have shown the highest hardness values with more than 1600 HV1. By X-ray diffraction, it was possible to ascribe the lower hardness values of TiC and TiN implants to high amounts of retained austenite in the metal matrix. By implanting TiB2, the formation of retained austenite was successfully suppressed due to the in-situ formation of TiC particles, which was proven by electron backscatter diffraction. In conclusion, all the implant materials are basically suitable for laser implantation on AISI D2 tool steel. However, TiB2 has shown the most promising results.
