Efforts are rising in opening up science by making data more transparent and more easily available, including the data reduction and evaluation procedures and code. A strong foundation for this is the F.A.I.R. principle, building on Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of digital assets, complemented by the letter T for trustworthyness of the data. Here, we have used data, which was made available by the Institute Laue-Langevin and can be identified using a DOI, to follow the F.A.I.R.+T. principle in extracting, evaluating and publishing triple axis data, recorded at IN3.
Background Due to physical coupling between mechanical stress and magnetization in ferromagnetic materials, it is assumed in the literature that the distribution of the magnetic stray field corresponds to the internal (residual) stress of the specimen.
The correlation is, however, not trivial, since the magnetic stray field is also influenced by the microstructure and the geometry of component. The understanding of the correlation between residual stress and magnetic stray field could help to evaluate the integrity of welded components.
Objective This study aims at understanding the possible correlation of subsurface and bulk residual stress with magnetic stray field in a low carbon steel weld. Methods The residual stress was determined by synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD, subsurface region) and by neutron diffraction (ND, bulk region). SXRD possesses a higher spatial resolution than ND. Magnetic stray fields were mapped by utilizing high-spatial-resolution giant magneto resistance (GMR) sensors.
Results The subsurface residual stress overall correlates better with the magnetic stray field distribution than the bulk stress.
This correlation is especially visible in the regions outside the heat affected zone, where the influence of the microstructural features is less pronounced but steep residual stress gradients are present.
Conclusions It was demonstrated that the localized stray field sources without any obvious microstructural variations are associated with steep stress gradients. The good correlation between subsurface residual stress and magnetic signal indicates that the source of the magnetic stray fields is to be found in the range of the penetration depth of the SXRD measurements.
Additively manufactured (and in particular laser powder bed fused) materials represent a manyfold challenge for the materials scientist and engineer because of their distinctive microstructure. If laser powder bed fusion is used to produce components, the complexity level increases because meso-structures (e.g., overhanging features, surface and internal defects) gain importance. Furthermore, if the main advantage of additive manufacturing, i.e., the freedom of design, is to be fully exploited, and geometrically complex structures, such as lattices, are manufactured, then such structures become meta-materials. This means that the geometry and the materials properties become equally important.
This matryoshka-like (more literary than the dry “multi-scale”) complexity makes the characterization of the residual stress fields by means of diffraction methods so difficult with the current means, that new paradigms are necessary to tackle the challenge.
Indeed, classic open problems acquire an extra layer of difficulty, such that new solutions need to be found and the sometimes-dormant debate needs to be re-opened. Examples include the determination of: a- the unstrained reference: this reference can become location-dependent and needs to be carefully determined; b- the so-called diffraction elastic constants, which becomes immensely challenging since even the single-crystal elastic constants are not known for additively manufactured materials.
On top of this, other problems arise. The determination of the principal axes of stress becomes non-trivial because the hatching strategy sometimes dominates over the sample geometry. Even further, in complex structures, such as lattices, the textbook statement that the strain measurement in six independent directions uniquely identifies the strain tensor becomes simply invalid. The peculiar surface features of additively manufactured materials transform trivial tasks into formidable challenges: the precise alignment of a specimen in a beam or the determination of surface stresses with laboratory X-rays need to be thoroughly re-discussed and lay far from being routine tasks.
In this paper, we will show a few examples of the cases mentioned above. We will demonstrate that sometimes the classic approach works very well, but other times surprising conclusions can be drawn from in-depth studies of the residual stress in additively manufactured materials. In short, we predicate that classic methods cannot be used on additively manufactured materials and structures without a critical evaluation of their validity and application range.
The prediction of structural parameters and optoelectronic properties of compound semiconductors is very important. However, calculations often neglect chemical variability and structural defects. In chalcopyrite type semiconductors one of the major defects are copper vacancies (V Cu). The four cation neighbors of the anion determine its position in the chalcopyrite type structure expressed by the Wyckoff position 8d (x, 1/4, 1/8). Intrinsic point defects like V
Cu and anti-sites may cause variations of the Anion position in the middle of the cation tetrahedron, especially in the Anion position Parameter x. For stoichiometric chalcopyrite type compounds a formalism according to the principle of conservation of tetrahedral bonds (CTB) can be applied to calculate the anion position parameter, but it fails in the case of off-stoichiometric chalcopyrites. This case study of chalcopyrite type CuGaS 2 and Mn-substituted GuGaS 2
shows that the experimentally determined anion position Parameter x
deviate from values calculated by CTB approach. The systematic investigation of off-stoichiometric CuGaS 2 and Mn-substituted GuGaS
2 demonstrates the effect of copper vacancies on the average radii of the cation sites (Wyckoff positions 4a and 4b) as well as on the anion position Parameter x. By applying an elaborated CTB Approach implementing copper vacancies an agreement between experimental and calculated anion position Parameter x can be obtained.
This study examines the relationship between the magnetic mesostructure with the microstructure of low carbon steel tungsten inert gas welds. Optical microscopy revealed variation in the microstructure of the parent material, in the heat affected and fusion zones, correlating with distinctive changes in the local magnetic stray fields measured with high spatial resolution giant magneto resistance sensors. In the vicinity of the heat affected zone high residual stresses were found using neutron diffraction.
Notably, the gradients of von Mises stress and triaxial magnetic stray field modulus follow the same tendency transverse to the weld. In contrast, micro-X-ray fluorescence characterization indicated that local changes in element composition had no independent effect on magnetic stray fields.
