Magnetohydrodynamic technology is increasingly recognized as a promising approach for enhancing the quality of deep penetration laser beam welding. This study employs experimental and numerical methods to investigate the effects of an auxiliary oscillating magnetic field on reducing porosity in the laser beam welding of 5754 aluminum alloy. The experimental results clearly demonstrate a significant reduction in the porosity ratio, thereby validating the efficacy of applying MHD technology in mitigating porosity during the laser beam welding process. In addition, a transient 3D multi-physical model has been developed, integrating the magnetohydrodynamic and metal vapor plume, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the porosity suppression mechanism. The introduction of an oscillating magnetic field generates a time-averaged downward Lorentz force. This Lorentz force, in turn, induces an electromagnetic expulsive force, which effectively increases the upward escape velocity of bubbles in the molten pool. Furthermore, the molten pool shape is significantly enlarged, which further facilitate the escape of bubbles. The simulation results agree well with the experimental results.
The global demand for concrete is growing, and with it, its carbon footprint. Current literature proposes biochar, a product of pyrolysis, as a possible car-bon sink to reduce the carbon footprint of concrete. This work investigates the microstructure of Portland cement pastes with 0%, 5%, and 25% of the cement replaced with wood biochar, since this should influence its macro-scopic mechanical properties. MIP, gas sorption, NMR, and µ-CT were used to analyze the pore space of the three materials. The combination of these methods, each with different resolution, enables a multi-scale investigation of biochar impact on the microstructure of cement pastes. NMR confirmed that biochar can absorb moisture and, thus, reduces the effective water-to-cement ratio. MIP and gas sorption results show 0% and 5% volume re-placement have similar gel pore structure. The results from µ-CT investiga-tions suggest that biochar may reduce the formation of larger pores. The in-clusion of non-reactive porous particles such as biochar increase the porosity of the material and should act as a weakness in terms of mechanical proper-ties. Overall, this study highlights the need to carefully tailor replacement rates to control the impact of biochar on the microstructure concrete mixtures and sees a strong need for further studies on mechanical properties.
In this study, we present an enhanced deep learning framework for the prediction of porosity based on thermographic in-situ monitoring data of laser powder bed fusion processes. The manufacturing of two cuboid specimens from Haynes 282 (Ni-based alloy) powder was monitored by a short-wave infrared camera. We use thermogram feature data and x-ray computed tomography data to train a convolutional neural network classifier. The classifier is used to perform a multi-class prediction of the spatially resolved porosity level in small sub-volumes of the specimen bulk.
The contactless magnetohydrodynamic technology has been considered as a potential and promising method to improve the weld qualities of deep penetration laser beam welding. In this paper, numerical investigations are conducted to study the influence of the auxiliary oscillating magnetic field on the porosity suppression in laser beam welding of 5754 aluminum alloy. To obtain a deeper insight into the suppression mechanism, a three-dimensional transient multi-physical model is developed to calculate the heat transfer, fluid flow, keyhole dynamic, and magnetohydrodynamics. A ray tracing algorithm is employed to calculate the laser energy distribution on the keyhole wall. A time-averaged downward Lorentz force is produced by an oscillating magnetic field. This force acts in the molten pool, leading to a dominant downward flow motion in the longitudinal section, which blocks the bubble migration from the keyhole tip to the rear part of the molten pool. Therefore, the possibility for the bubbles to be captured by the solidification front is reduced. The electromagnetic expulsive force provides an additional upward escaping speed for the bubbles of 1 m/s ~ 5 m/s in the lower and middle region of the molten pool. The simulation results are in a good agreement with experimental measurements. Based on the results obtained in this study, a better understanding of the underlying physics in laser beam welding enhanced by an auxiliary oscillating magnetic field can be provided and thus the welding process can be further optimized reducing the porosity formation.
This study presents mechanisms of the evolution of a narrowed region in the weld pool center during deep penetration laser beam welding. In numerous numerical studies presented in this study, it was also found that the local reduction of the weld pool size can cause detrimental effects on the melt flow behavior and the resulting properties of the welds. A particularly large influence of this effect was identified in three aspects. First, the local variation of the solidification sequence of the weld pool causes an increase in the hotcracking susceptibility due to a locally delayed solidification. Second, it was proven that a change in the local length and width of the weld pool is associated with an adverse impact on the potential flow routes of the molten material that induces stronger local variations of its solidification. Thus, the element mixing, e.g., during the welding with filler materials, is blocked. This leads to a nonhomogeneous chemical composition of the final weld and can cause undesired effects on the final material properties. Finally, another observed effect is related to the reduced ability of process pores to reach the top surface. As this type of porosity is usually produced around the keyhole tip, the change of the fluid flow regime above this area plays a significant role in determining the final path of the pores until the premature solidification in the middle of the weld pool captures them. This study summarizes mainly numerical results that were supported by selected experimental validation results.
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 macro and micro benefits from a magnetic field have been well recognized in the laser beam welding, but the influence mechanism, especially on the local keyhole dynamics, is yet not fully understood. A combination of experimental approach and numerical modeling was conducted to study the highly transient keyhole dynamics under the magnetic field. It was found that the magnetic field gave a direct impact on the laser energy absorption at the keyhole front wall. The keyhole-induced porosity was suppressed under the influence of the magnetic field, which was confirmed by the micro-X-ray computed tomography. The porosity mitigation comes from multiple physical aspects, including keyhole stabilization, widening of the bubble floating channel, and the electromagnetic expulsive force. The predicted penetration depth and weld pool profiles with/without magnetic field show a good agreement with the experimental measurements, including optical micrographs and in-situ metal/glass observation.
In this seminar I present the microstructure and micromechanical properties of diesel particulate filter materials, and then particularize them to porous microcracked aluminum titanate.
I show that neutron diffraction is particularly suited for bulk studies, especially under applied load or at high temperatures. The combination of macroscopic and microscopic tests with modeling and simulation yields great added value to understand the mechanics of microcracking.
Limits of computer tomography aided characterization of different types of porous ceramic materials
(2021)
Ceramics with open porosity are attractive materials in many fields of applications covering medicine, catalysis, and filtration. Manifold technologies to produce porous ceramics are available, e.g. foaming and replica processes, resulting in various microstructures. Development and manufacturing of new materials is accelerating, while crucial characterization is becoming increasingly difficult and conventional measurements lack the desired speed. Computed tomography (CT) offers the possibility to three-dimensionally characterize entire samples with minimal sample preparation, while its main advantage is that it is non-destructive. Still, the assessment of quantitative results from CT measurements is not trivial.
The poster presents CT characterizations of newly developed as well as commercially available openly porous ceramic samples. Properties such as porosity, permeability or pore characteristics were measured conventionally and compared to results calculated from CT-measurements using the commercial software VG StudioMax.
The determined differences between measured and calculated values are presented and application areas as well as limits of the CT characterization are evaluated.
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.
