Nanoporous Metals

Nanoporous metals, with their complex microstructure, represent an ideal candidate for the development of methods that combine physics, data, and machine learning. The preparation of nanporous metals via dealloying allows for tuning of the microstructure and macroscopic mechanical properties within a large design space, dependent on the chosen dealloying conditions. Specifically, it is possible to define the solid fraction, ligament size, and connectivity density within a large range. These microstructural parameters have a large impact on the macroscopic mechanical behavior. This makes this class of materials an ideal science case for the development of strategies for dimensionality reduction, supporting the analysis and visualization of the underlying structure–property relationships. Efficient finite element beam modeling techniques were used to generate ~200 data sets for macroscopic compression and nanoindentation of open pore nanofoams. A strategy consisting of dimensional analysis, principal component analysis, and machine learning allowed for data mining of the microstructure–property relationships. It turned out that the scaling law of the work hardening rate has the same exponent as the Young’s modulus. Simple linear relationships are derived for the normalized work hardening rate and hardness. The hardness to yield stress ratio is not limited to 1, as commonly assumed for foams, but spreads over a large range of values from 0.5 to 3.

Minimum Strain Energy

A method drawing from variational method is presented for the purpose of investigating the behavior of inclusions and inhomogeneities embedded in composite materials. The extended Hamilton’s principle is applied to solve many problems pertaining to composite materials such as constitutive equations, fracture mechanics, dislocation theory, overall elastic moduli, work hardening and sliding inclusions. Especially, elastic fields of sliding inclusions and workhardening rate of composite materials are presented in closed forms. For sliding inclusion problems, the sliding is modeled by adding the Somigliana dislocations along a matrix-inclusion interface. Exact formula are exploited for both Burgers vector and the disturbances in stress and strain due to sliding. The resulting expressions are obtained by utilizing the principle of minimum strain energy. Finally, explicit expressions are obtained for work-hardening rate of composite materials. It is verified that the work-hardening rate and yielding stress are independent on the size of inclusions but are dependent on the shape and the volume fraction of inclusions.

Work Hardening Rate

This research investigated the effect of hot extrusion on the flow behaviour of nickel-based superalloy FGH4096 by hot compression experiments in the temperature range from 1020 to 1110 °C and strain rates ranging from 0.1 to 0.001 s-1. The influence of the hot extrusion on the initial microstructures, work hardening rate, strain rate sensitivity, and activation energy of deformation were discussed. The results show that the extruded microstructure is constituted by the fine dynamic recrystallisation of grains. The true strain-true stress curves show that the as-HIPed and as-HEXed FGH4096 superalloy present double flow stress peaks and discontinuous flow softening. The as-HEXed FGH4096 is easily dynamically softened at high temperatures and high strain rates compared with as-HIPed microstructures. As for the work hardening rate, the as-HEXed FGH4096 exhibits higher θ values than that of as-HIPed. It is beneficial to the homogenous deformation and grain refinement during subsequent turbine disk forging. Comparing to as-HIPed FGH4096, the highest strain rate sensitivity value of as-HEXed is 0.306 at 1110 °C. The isothermal superplastic forging of a P/M turbine disk may be carried out at this temperature. The deformation activation energy value of the as-HIPed FGH4096 is lower which means that dislocation sliding and climbing can be easily initiated in the as-HIPed alloy.

The Impact

Investigation of the impact behaviour of Hadfield steel has been carried out in a broad range of strain rates from 10−3 to 9 × 103s−1 by means of a servo-hydraulic machine and a compressive split Hopkinson bar. The effects of strain rate on the impact properties, substructure evolution and fracture resistance have been evaluated. The observed stress-strain response is influenced greatly by strain rate, resulting in obvious changes of work hardening rate, strain rate sensitivity and activation volume. This rate-dependent behaviour is in good agreement with model predictions using the Zerilli-Armstrong constitutive law. Dislocation tangle and deformation twin substructures are also found to develop as a function of strain rate. Increasing dislocation and twin densities enhance the work hardening rate and flow strength. Catastrophic failure at high rates results from the formation of localized shear bands. With increasing strain rate, there is an increase in brittle cleavage microfracture, resulting in ductility loss. Microcracking initiates at grain boundaries due to the presence of carbide precipitates.

Commercial Aluminium

In order to investigate the effect of deformation on the aging response of Al-Mg-Si alloys, a series of tensile tests have been designed and carried out on two commercial aluminium alloys, i.e. AA6060 and AA6082. Extruded and solution heat treated specimens were pre-deformed 0%, 5%, and 10% (engineering strain), respectively followed by natural aging (NA). It was observed that the work-hardening rate increases with prolonged natural aging time and decreases with increasing pre-deformation prior to natural aging. The most significant effect of deformation was obtained for T4 temper i.e. after 1000 and 10000 minutes NA for the 6082 and 6060 alloy, respectively, when the amount of pre-deformation is 10%. A remarkable difference in work-hardening rate at the level of small plastic strains was observed compared to that of the material naturally aged for only 10 minutes. In addition to the tensile tests, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used to characterize dislocation evolution for various combinations of pre-deformation and aging time.

Work Hardening Rate

The fluctuations in the work hardening rate of a Fe-12Mn-10Al-0.7C (wt. %) steel have been investigated through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The work hardening rate of the heat treated sample had a tendency of decrease with fluctuations. The first raise in the work hardening rate curve at about 2% true strain is attributed to the shearing of the small ferrite grains by austenite, and the deformation induced twinning can contribute to the raise and drop in the work hardening rate curve. The second fluctuation range at the true strain between 10% and 14% is mainly related to the activation of planar slip on the principle slip plane which is suppressed by twins in austenite.

Reverse Analysis

In order to explore more mechanical properties of zeolite Ferrierite (FER) single crystal, a method of determining its mechanical properties—nanoindentation reverse analysis—was obtained based on the nanoindentation experiment and numerical simulations, and this will be presented in this paper. The yield stress and the characteristic work-hardening rate were gained if its stress-strain relation was a bilinear constitutive relation. The mechanical parameters obtained by reverse analysis have been compared with ones gained by nanoindentation finite-element numerical simulations.
