Phase Studies of Additively Manufactured Near Beta Titanium Alloy-Ti55511

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicola Casati

The effect of electron-beam melting (EBM) and selective laser melting (SLM) processes on the chemical composition, phase composition, density, microstructure, and microhardness of as-built Ti55511 blocks were evaluated and compared. The work also aimed to ...

The lattice strain and intensity evolution obtained from in-situ neutron diffraction experiments of 316L cruciform samples subjected to 45 degrees and 90 degrees load path changes are presented and predicted using the multi-scale modeling approach proposed ...

PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2019

Large scale 3D atomistic simulations are performed to study the interaction between a curved dislocation with a dominant screw character and a Coherent Twin Boundary (CTB). Three FCC metals (Al, Cu and Ni) are addressed using 6 embedded-atom method (EAM) p ...

Enhanced precipitate growth at reduced temperatures during chemical ordering in deformed red gold alloys

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem, Nadine Baluc, Marina Garcia Gonzalez, Samy Hocine

Manufacturing of red gold components relies widely on controlling the formation of ordered precipitates during thermo-mechanical processing. The ordered phase hardens the material, makes it less workable and introduces residual stresses. We show that an in ...

Following Microstructures during Deformation: In situ X-ray/Neutron Diffraction and HRDIC

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis

The mechanical behavior of three engineering materials is studied employing in situ deformation methods. The study covers metastable austenitic steels with different stacking fault energies during multiaxial loading, a Ti-6Al-4V alloy processed by electron ...

In situ tension-tension strain path changes of cold-rolled Mg AZ31B

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem

The mechanical behavior of cold-rolled Mg AZ31B is studied during in-plane multiaxial loading and tension-tension strain path changes performed on cruciform samples using in situ neutron diffraction and EBSD. The results are compared with uniaxial tension ...

A High Resolution Digital Image Correlation Study under Multiaxial Loading

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Wei-Neng Hsu

In this study, a miniaturized cruciform-shaped sample geometry which allows reaching high plastic strain under equibiaxial loading with reduced thickness at the test section is presented. The thinning method results in excellent surface quality that can be ...
