Wir präsentieren Labor- und Synchrotron-Röntgenrefraktionstechniken, wie sie an der BAM implementiert sind.
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 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 (z. B. 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) Klassifizierung von Defekttypen in additiv gefertigter Ti6Al4V-Legierung; d) Früherkennung des Versagens in Aluminium-Keramik-Verbundwerkstoffen (unter Verwendung von In-situ-Experimenten); e) 3D-Darstellung von Makrorissen und Faserentbindung in Verbundwerkstoffen auf Ti-Basis für Anwendungen in der Luft- und Raumfahrt (unter Verwendung von Röntgenbeugungstomographie).
While there is a extensive literature on the micro-mechanical behavior of metal matrix composites (MMCs) under uniaxial applied stress, very little is available on multi-phase MMCs. In order to cast light on the reinforcement and damage processes in such multi-phase composites, an Al alloy with one and two ceramic reinforcements (planar-random oriented alumina fibers and SiC particles) were studied. In-situ compression tests during neutron diffraction experiments were used to track the load transfer among phases, while X-ray computed tomography was used to investigate pre-strained samples, in order to monitor and quantify damage. We found that damage progresses differently in composites with different orientations of the fiber mat. Because of the presence of the intermetallic network, it was observed that the second ceramic reinforcement changes the load transfer scenario only at very high applied load, when also intermetallic particles break. We rationalized the experimental results by means of a micromechanical model based on Maxwell’s homogenization scheme, and we could explain why no damage is observed in the ductile matrix under compression: the matrix finds itself in hydrostatic compression, and the Poisson’s tensile strain is totally carried by the reinforcement phases
The residual stresses and load transfer in multiphase metal alloys and their composites (with both random planar-oriented short fibers and particles) will be shown, as studied by neutron diffraction, by X-ray computed tomography, and by a model based on the reformulation of classic Maxwell’s homogenization method.
Contrary to common understanding and state-of-the-art models, we experimentally observe that randomly oriented phases possess non-hydrostatic residual stress. Moreover, we disclose that the unreinforced matrix alloy stays under hydrostatic compression even under external uniaxial compression.
The recently developed modeling approach allows calculating the residual stress in all phases of the composites. It rationalizes the presence of deviatoric stresses accounting for the interaction of random oriented phases with fibers having preferential orientation. It also allows the explanation of the unconventional in-situ behavior of the unreinforced alloy and the prediction of the micromechanical behavior of other similar alloys.
Ein Nachteil der klassischen Durchstrahlungstechnik mit Röntgenstrahlen ist die, in der Abbildung des Untersuchungsobjektes, fehlende Tiefeninformation. Die Anwendung von radiografischen Verfahren, die das Objekt unter zwei oder mehreren Winkelpositionen durchstrahlen, erlauben die Rekonstruktion räumlicher Abbildungen. Dazu zählen Stereoradiografie, Translations- und Rotationslaminographie. Bei der Computertomographie erfolgt die Durchstrahlung unter einem Winkelbereich von 180° oder 360°. Die dabei aufgenommenen Projektionen werden anschließend durch Anwendung der Fourier Transformation und der gefilterten Rückprojektion zu einem 3D-Bilddatensatz rekonstruiert. Verschiedene systembedingte Artefakte, die das Ergebnis negativ beeinflussen können, lassen sich durch geeignete Meß- und Rekonstruktionsparameter, sowie einer nachfolgende Bildverarbeitung eliminieren oder reduzieren.
While additive manufacturing (AM) is blossoming in nearly every industrial field, and the most different process are being used to produce components and materials, little attention is paid on the safety concerns around AM materials and processes.
Leveraging on our leading expertise in non-destructive testing (NDT) and materials characterization, we approach AM at BAM under two important viewpoints: first the on-line monitoring of the process and of the product, second the evolution of the (unstable) microstructure of AM materials under external loads.
These two subjects are the core of the two new-born internal projects ProMoAM and AGIL, respectively.
A detailed view of the goals and the organization of these two projects will be given, together with the expected output, and some preliminary results.
The combination of microstructural data with other experimental techniques and with modeling is paramount, if we want to extract the maximum amount of information on porous material properties. 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. I will show a few examples of possible use of X-ray tomographic data for quantitative assessment of porosity in ceramics.
Moreover, I will show how not-so-novel 2D characterization techniques, based X-ray refraction, can allow a great deal of insights in the damage evolution in microcracked (and porous) ceramics. I will show how X-ray refraction can detect objects (e.g. microcracks) below its own spatial resolution.
Finally, I will discuss the link between the microstructural findings and the mechanical properties of porous microcracked ceramics.
Diffraction-based experimental determination of Residual Stress in AM parts: A critical discussion
(2019)
Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies have experienced an exceedingly rapid growth, not always paralleled by the knowledge about the materials properties and performance. In particular, residual stress (RS) has been soon recognized as an issue in AM parts, so that parts are always post-heat-treated. Moreover, much effort has been spent on simulating RS, especially using finite element methods.
The experimental determination of RS has thereby become increasingly important, and even simple data constitute (to date) a piece of knowledge to fill the above-mentioned gap. In particular, diffraction methods, which are basically non-destructive, offer enormous possibilities to gain knowledge on real components, since neutrons and synchrotron radiation can penetrate even heavy metals up to several millimeters (or even centimeters). Indeed, some success has been obtained, and the knowledge about the origins of the RS fields, as well as their variation as a consequence of heat or mechanical treatments, has been greatly expanded.
In this talk, a few success stories will be outlined. It will be shown how the determination of RS in metallic parts (with focus on those produced by laser powder bed fusion) has even allowed showing that process parameters that were considered unimportant play a major role in the onset of stress.
However, while RS is starting to be considered in the part design, deposition strategy (e.g. build plate temperature), and even in the definition of the relevant metric to assess the quality of a part, much is still to be investigated about the hypotheses underlying its experimental determination. Therefore, some aspects to be aware of, or even to date unclear will also be discussed, such as the determination of the reference unstrained samples and of the principal axes of stress. All these aspects will draw the path towards a comprehensive understanding of the process-structure-performance relationships in AM materials and parts.
In this talk, the evolution of the demand for engineering applications of neutrons at the ILL in the last 10 years is presented. It is shown that small angle neutron scattering and diffraction are highly demanded by the materials science community. Further development in the field is foreseen, with the use of in-situ (furnace, tension/compression rig, humidity cells, etc.) techniques to associate to the neutron techniques.
In this Seminar cycle I will present first diffraction methods to determine residual stress and investigate micromechanical properties of complex materials, and then particularize the treatment with applications to porous microcracked ceramics for diesel particulate filter applications.
I will show that neutron diffraction is particularly suited for bulk studies, where 3D stresses are needed. The advantages to use Time-of-Flight or steady state sources will be discussed, together with the problematic of the determination of absolute RS values.
Finally, the behavior of DPF materials under applied load or at high temperatures will be discussed under the combination of macroscopic and microscopic tests.
