Characterization of multiphase metal matrix composites by means of CT and neutron diffraction
(2016)
The present study examines the relationship between the microstructure of multiphase metal matrix composites and their damage mechanisms. The matrix AlSi12CuMgNi was combined with 15% vol. Al₂O₃ (short fibers), and with 7% vol. Al₂O₃ + 15% vol. SiC (short fibers and whiskers, respectively). The experimental approach encompasses 3D microstructure characterization by means of computed tomography of samples (a) as-cast, (b) after heat treatment, and (c) after compression tests at room temperature. The volume fraction of different phases, their distribution, their orientation, and the presence of defects and damage are studied.
The influence of the addition of SiC particles on mechanical properties of composite was investigated. Phase-specific load partition analysis for samples with fiber plane parallel to load was performed by using neutron diffraction (ND) during in-situ compression. ND results show damage in the Si phase, while Al₂O₃ short fibers carry load without damage until failure. The computed tomography observations confirm the load partition analysis.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) of metals has become industrially viable for a large variety of applications, including aerospace, automotive and medicine. Powder bed techniques such as Selective Laser Melting (SLM) based on layer-by-layer deposition and laser melt enable numerous degrees of freedom for the geometrical design. Developing during the manufacturing process, residual stresses may limit the application of SLM parts by reducing the load bearing capacity as well as induce unwanted distortion depending on the boundary conditions specified in manufacturing.
The residual stress distribution in the bulk of IN718 elongated prisms produced by SLM was studied non-destructively by means of neutron diffraction. The samples with different scanning strategies, i.e. hatching length, were measured in as-build condition (on a build plate) and after removal from the build plate.
The absolute values of all stress components decreased after removal from the build plate. Together with surface scan utilizing a coordinate-measuring machine (CMM), it is possible to link the stress release to the sample distortion. Obtained results indicated different residual stress states for each of the transversal, longitudinal and normal component depending on the thermal gradient in the respective direction.
Evaluation of high spatial resolution imaging of magnetic stray fields for early damage detection
(2017)
The paper discusses the evaluation of elastic and plastic strain states in two low-carbon steels of the same steel group with high spatial resolution GMR (giant magneto resistance) sensors. The residual stress distributions of tungsten inert gas welded plates were determined by means of neutron diffraction as a reference. The normal component of local residual magnetic stray fields arise in the vicinity of the positions of maximum stress. The experiments performed on flat tensile specimen indicate that the boundaries of plastic deformations are a source of stray fields. The spatial variations of magnetic stray fields for both the weld and the tensile samples are in the order of the earths magnetic field.
Absorptionskantentomographie, auch bekannt als differentielle Tomographie an Kanten, ist ein Verfahren, bei dem ausgenutzt wird, dass sich die Schwächung von Röntgenstrahlen beim Übergang der Photonenenergie über die Absorptionskanten sprunghaft ändert. Die Verwendung von Synchrotronstrahlung ermöglicht die Anwendung der Absorptionskantentomographie für nahezu jedes Element, da sie eine intensive, durchstimmbare Strahlenquelle mit kleiner Bandbreite darstellt. Der Mikrotomographieaufbau der BAM am Elektronenspeicherring BESSY II eignet sich mit einem Energiebereich von 5 keV bis über 60 keV und einer Ortsauflösung besser als 0.5 µm zur differentiellen Tomographie an den K-Kanten der Elemente von Chrom bis zu den Lanthaniden, bei Einbeziehung der L-Kante bis zu Uran.
In dieser Arbeit wird die Absorptionskantentomographie ausgenutzt, um das Gefüge von Legierungen dreidimensional und nichtdestruktiv zu vermessen. Als Beispiel wird eine Legierung zwischen Magnesium, Yttrium und Zink analysiert, die sich gegenüber unlegiertem Magnesium durch größere Festigkeit und geringere Korrosionsanfälligkeit auszeichnet. Der Grund dafür liegt in der Bildung einer kristallographisch hochgeordneten Phase (long period stacking ordered - LPSO) der Legierungsbestandteile, die die Matrix in Form von Fasern durchzieht. Anhand ihres Yttriumgehaltes wird die dreidimensionale Verteilung der LPSO-Phase in der Matrix für verschiedene Proben bestimmt und mit Schnittbildern und Korrosionstests verglichen. Die Absorptionskantentomographie erweist sich als eine geeignete Methode, um die dreidimensionale Mikrostruktur von Legierungen zu charakterisieren.
