Laue microdiffraction characterisation of as-cast and tensile deformed Al microwires

Andreas Mortensen, Steven Van Petegem, Helena Van Swygenhoven, Léa Deillon, Suzanne Godelieve Alphonsine Verheyden

Single-crystalline cast aluminium microwires with a diameter near 15 are characterised by Laue microdiffraction. A microwire in the as-cast condition exhibits a misorientation below over a length of 500 . The measured density of geometrically necessary dis ...

Solute/screw dislocation interaction energy parameter for strengthening in bcc dilute to high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Francesco Maresca, Alireza Ghafarollahi

Strengthening, i.e. increased stress required to move a dislocation, in dilute or complex alloys arises from the totality of the interaction energies between the solutes and an individual dislocation. Prevailing theories for strengthening in bcc alloys con ...

The effect of size on the plastic deformation of annealed cast aluminium microwires

Andreas Mortensen, Léa Deillon, Suzanne Godelieve Alphonsine Verheyden

Monocrystalline, cast aluminium microwires of diameter (D) below 25 mu m free of micromilling artefacts are annealed under protective atmosphere. Annealing increases the flow stress of all tested microwires, by an amount that is found, in a Haasen plot of ...

Large scale 3-dimensional atomistic simulations of screw dislocations interacting with coherent twin boundaries in Al, Cu and Ni under uniaxial and multiaxial loading conditions

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Satish I Rao

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 ...

A High Resolution Digital Image Correlation Study under Multiaxial Loading

Helena Van Swygenhoven, 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 ...

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

Helena Van Swygenhoven

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 crystallographic extension to the Olson-Cohen model for predicting strain path dependence of martensitic transformation

Helena Van Swygenhoven

A modification to the empirical Olson-Cohen strain-induced austenite to martensite transformation kinetic model is proposed. The proposed kinetic model accounts for the stress state at the grain level and the crystallography of the transformation mechanism ...

Deformation-induced martensitic transformation under multiaxial loading

Wei-Neng Hsu

The deformation-induced martensitic transformation observed in specific materials can enhance their mechanical properties or result in functional properties. For example, the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect results in a good combination of ...

In Situ Deformation Studies of HCP Metal Alloys with Neutron Diffraction, X-Ray Diffraction, and High Resolution Digital Image Correlation

Karl Alan Sofinowski

Mg and Ti alloys are attractive materials for structural applications in the transportation and biomedical industries due to their high strength-to-weight ratios. However, due to their hexagonally close-packed (HCP) lattice structure, they exhibit poor for ...

Three-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy of dislocation loops in tungsten

Cécile Hébert, Robin Schäublin, Soheil Hasanzadeh

Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) imaging using diffraction contrast is a powerful technique to assess crystal defects. In this work it is used to assess the spatial distribution of radiation induced defect in tungsten. In effect, its irradi ...
