The effect of TiC and VC nano-precipitate size on the hydrogen embrittlement of ferritic steels was studied in this work. Steels containing two size distributions (10 nm or less and 10 - 100 nm) of TiC and VC carbides are subjected to tensile tests in-situ in an electrochemical h ...
Microstructure features including grain morphology and texture are key factors in determining the properties of laser additively manufactured metallic components. Beyond the traditional trial-and-error approach, which is costly and time-consuming, microstructure control increasin ...
Superelastic metamaterials have attracted significant attention recently, but achieving such functionality remains challenging due to partial superelasticity and premature fracture in additively manufactured components. To address these issues, this study investigates the prematu ...
This study concentrates on the fatigue crack propagation behaviour of a high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel and austenitic stainless (AS) steel bi-material part, as obtained by wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). Due to partial mixing in the weld pool, the first layer of AS ...
In this study, three-dimensional functionally graded NiTi bulk materials were fabricated using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) by in-situ adding Ni powder into equiatomic NiTi powder. The gradient zone exhibited a Ni composition ranging from approximately 49.6 to 52.4 at.% over a ...
This study investigated the feasibility of in-situ manufacturing of a functionally graded metallic-regolith multimaterial. To fabricate the gradient, digital light processing, an additive manufacturing technique, and spark plasma sintering were selected due to their compatibility ...
Additively manufactured Nitinol (NiTi) architectured materials, designed with unit cell architectures, hold promise for customisable applications. However, the common assumption of homogeneity in modeling and additive manufacturing of these architectured materials needs further i ...
Boron doped MoSi2 particles have been envisioned as sacrificial particles for self-healing thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) but their oxidation behaviour is yet not well understood. In this work, oxidation of MoSi2 based particle is studied in the temperature ...
The binary Fe–Ni system offers alloys with notably low linear coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE), contingent upon their Ni content. In this respect twin-wire arc additive manufacturing (T-WAAM) presents the opportunity of in-situ alloying through the simultaneous feeding of ...
Abstract: This work studies the effect of TiC and VC precipitate sizes on hydrogen trapping and embrittlement. Two experimental ferritic HSLA steels containing either TiC or VC carbides for precipitation strengthening are annealed in nitrogen and hydrogen gas. This results in a h ...
This study examines the interface layer between a high-strength low-alloy steel and an overlaying austenitic stainless steel as deposited through wire arc additive manufacturing in a bi-metal block. By utilizing optical and electron microscopy techniques, and accompanied by pheno ...
High strength steels are widely used for structural applications, where a combination of excellent strength and ductile-to-brittle transition (DBT) properties are required. However, such a combination of high strength and toughness can be deteriorated in the heat affected zone (H ...
Electrochemical tests and surface analysis measurements were performed to study the corrosion behavior in a 0.9 wt.% NaCl solution at 37 °C of three NiTi shape memory alloys fabricated by laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF). The passive film characteristics and corrosion resistance o ...
Study of the cleavage behavior of heat treated S690 steel by a microstructure-based approach combined with finite element analysis is present in this paper. Cleavage simulations of steels subjected to heat treatments that cause grain refinement or simulate heat affected zones are ...
Boron containing MoSi2 is a promising material for applications at high temperature, but the oxidation mechanism is still unclear. In this work, the high temperature (1100 °C) oxidation of B doped MoSi2 in synthetic air has been investigated. A (boro)silicat ...
This study investigated the in-situ gaseous (under 150 bar) hydrogen embrittlement behaviour of additively manufactured (AM) Inconel 718 produced from sustainable feedstock. Here, sustainable feedstock refers to the Inconel 718 powder produced by vacuum induction melting inert ga ...
Multi-barrier cleavage models consider cleavage fracture which is characterized by a series of microscale events. One of the challenges for multi-barrier cleavage models is the strong variations of cleavage parameters across different types of steels. The source and magnitude of ...
Additive manufacturing of NiTi shape memory alloys has attracted attention in recent years, due to design flexibility and feasibility to achieve four-dimensional (4D) function response. To obtain customized 4D functional responses in NiTi structures, tailorable phase transformati ...
Electrochemical tests and surface analysis were applied to study the corrosion behavior and passive film characteristics of three-dimensional-printed NiTi shape memory alloys fabricated by laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) in artificial saliva at 37 °C. The passivity of L-PBF NiTi ...
