Bragg edge tomography characterization of additively manufactured 316L steel

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Efthymios Polatidis, Markus Strobl, Nikola Kalentics

In this work we perform a neutron Bragg edge tomography of stainless steel 316L additive manufacturing samples, one as built via standard laser powder bed fusion, and one using the novel three-dimensional (3D) laser shock peening technique. First, we consi ...

Tailored deformation behavior of 304L stainless steel through control of the crystallographic texture with laser-powder bed fusion

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Efthymios Polatidis, Markus Strobl

Laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has gained significant research interest, not only for its profound advantage of producing near-net shape complex geometries of metallic parts, but also for the possibility of producing tailored microstructures. Here we expl ...

The effect of stress triaxiality on the phase transformation in transformation induced plasticity steels: Experimental investigation and modelling the transformation kinetics

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Nicola Casati

In situ multiaxial loading during neutron diffraction tests were undertaken on a low-alloyed Quenched and Partitioning (Q&P) Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) Bainitic Ferrite (TBF) steel with dispersed austenite particles. The effect of stress tria ...

Measurement and prediction of the transformation strain that controls ductility and toughness in advanced steels

William Curtin, Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Francesco Maresca

New-generation multi-phase martensitic steels derive their high strength from the body-centered cubic (BCC) phase and high toughness from transformation of the metastable face-centered cubic (FCC) austenite that transforms into martensite upon loading. In ...

Neutron Diffraction and Diffraction Contrast Imaging for Mapping the TRIP Effect under Load Path Change

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Markus Strobl

The transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect is investigated during a load path change using a cruciform sample. The transformation properties are followed by in-situ neutron diffraction derived from the central area of the cruciform sample. Additio ...

Deformation mechanisms in a superelastic NiTi alloy: An in-situ high resolution digital image correlation study

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis

An in-situ high resolution digital image correlation investigation during uniaxial tensile deformation reveals the recoverable and the non-recoverable strain mechanisms in a Ni51Ti49 alloy with a mean grain size of 35 mu m. Recoverable strain is due to the ...

Characterization, mechanical properties and dimensional accuracy of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass manufactured via laser powder-bed fusion

Roland Logé, Steven Van Petegem, Jamasp Jhabvala, Antonia Neels, Efthymios Polatidis, Annapaola Parrilli, Güven Kurtuldu, Navid Sohrabi

Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are high-strength, highly elastic materials due to their disordered atomic structure. Because BMGs require sufficiently high cooling rates to bypass crystallization, laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) methods have recently ...

The interplay between deformation mechanisms in austenitic 304 steel during uniaxial and equibiaxial loading

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Wei-Neng Hsu

The preferred deformation mechanisms with respect to the load path are studied in a medium stacking fault energy 304 austenitic stainless steel that exhibits both transformation induced plasticity and twinning induced plasticity. In situ neutron diffractio ...

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 ...

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 ...
