Manufacturing austenitic stainless steels (ASSs) using additive manufacturing is of great interest for cryogenic applications. Here, the mechanical and microstructural responses of a 316L ASS built by laser powder bed fusion were revealed by performing in situ neutron diffraction tensile tests at the low-temperature range (from 373 to 10 K). The stacking fault energy almost linearly decreased from 29.2 ± 3.1 mJm⁻² at 373 K to 7.5 ± 1.7 mJm⁻² at 10 K, with a slope of 0.06 mJm⁻²K⁻¹, leading to the transition of the dominant deformation mechanism from strain-induced twinning to martensite formation. As a result, excellent combinations of strength and ductility were achieved at the low-temperature range.
We introduce a novel approach that combines the scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) with a mortar coupling to enhance the computational modelling of elastic wave propagation and interaction with local features in the ultrasonic range. The key objective is to achieve decoupling between different regions of interest, enabling independent meshes for the zones where waves either propagate or interact with localised discontinuities in the elastic media. This decoupling allows us to exploit the benefits offered by various SBFEM formulations. Thus, we can select the most suitable solution for each specific region. An important concept we emphasise is the differentiation between the near field and far field regions. The near field encompasses zones where the precise representation of small features compared to the wavelength is crucial. At the same time, the far field comprises homogeneous regions where the waves propagate without interactions, eventually radiating towards infinity if the domain is unbounded. By separating these two zones, we can improve the computational performance by employing finer discretisation only where necessary. Furthermore, this decoupling enables the reuse of far field models in parametric analyses, making it highly valuable for scenarios focused particularly on local elastic wave interactions. This approach offers considerable potential in such cases. The modelling technique is validated, and its potential is demonstrated through practical applications.
High energy X-ray synchrotron diffraction is used to investigate the elastic anisotropy of the nickel-based superalloy IN718 produced by laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB). This material is characterized by a columnar grain morphology with some crystallographic texture. The material is subjected to elastic loading to determine the diffraction elastic constants (DECs). Furthermore, the single-crystal elastic constants (SCEC) are refined from these experiments using different micromechanical models. The results show that each micromechanical model predicts a specific set of SCEC that well describes the elastic anisotropy of PBF-LB/IN718.
