Design using randomness: a new dimension for metallurgy

High entropy alloys add a new dimension, atomic-scale randomness and the associated scale-dependent composition fluctuations, to the traditional metallurgical axes of time-temperature-composition-microstructure. Alloy performance is controlled by the energ ...

Linking electronic structure calculations to generalized stacking fault energies in multicomponent alloys

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

The generalized stacking fault energy is a key ingredient to mesoscale models of dislocations. Here we develop an approach to quantify the dependence of generalized stacking fault energies on the degree of chemical disorder in multicomponent alloys. We int ...

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 ...

Diffraction artefacts from twins and stacking faults, and the mirage of hexagonal, polytypes or other superstructures

Cyril Cayron

Recently, a hexagonal phase has been reported in high carbon steels in several studies. Here, we show that the electron microscopy results used in these studies were erroneously interpreted. The extra-spots in the diffraction patterns and the odd contrasts ...

Operando X-ray diffraction during laser 3D printing: from machine design to experiments and computer simulations

Samy Hocine

The importance of additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has grown exponentially in the recent years thanks to its high flexibility to manufacture intricate parts. This process can be divided into many different sub-categories, depending on the ...

First principles study of the effect of hydrogen in austenitic stainless steels and high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Xiao Zhou

Hydrogen (H) embrittlement in multicomponent austenitic alloys is a serious limitation to their application in many environments. Recent experiments show that the High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) CoCrFeMnNi absorbs more H than 304 Stainless Steel but is less prone ...

Design of Ductile Rare-Earth-Free Magnesium Alloys

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad

Pure Mg has low ductility due to a transition of < c+a > pyramidal dislocations to a sessile basal-oriented structure. Dilute alloying generally improves ductility. Enhancement of pyramidal cross-slip from the lower-energy pyramidal II plane to the higher- ...

Combining alloy and process modification for micro-crack mitigation in an additively manufactured Ni-base superalloy

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Jamasp Jhabvala, Xavier Maeder, Hossein Ghasemi Tabasi, Toni Ivas, Rafal Wróbel

The additive manufacturing (AM) of the gamma' precipitation strengthened Ni-base superalloys still remains a challenge due to their susceptibility to micro-cracking. Post-processing, such as HIPing, has been shown to heal the micro-cracks but it remains de ...

Irreversible cyclic cohesive zone model for prediction of mode I fatigue crack growth in CFRP-strengthened steel plates

Alain Nussbaumer, Ardalan Hosseini, Elyas Ghafoori

Experimental studies on various strengthening systems for steel elements under fatigue loading showed that the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strengthening system could significantly enhance the fatigue lifetime. Besides, more recently it wa ...
