This study investigates the effect of thermal aging on the microstructure and tensile properties of a 15-15Ti austenitic stainless steel in the baseline operating conditions of a sodium fast reactor, in the range between 400°C and 600°C. Samples that were aged at up to 600°C for 1000 hours exhibit no evidence of material recovery. Thus, after aging heat treatments, micro-hardness measurements do not decrease, and TEM analyses do not show any modification of the dislocation network. However, TEM examinations have indicated a new threshold for the precipitation of nanometric titanium carbides after an isothermal treatment at 500°C for about 5000 hours. Concerning the tensile properties, the aged states present a gain both in strength and in ductility compared to the initial cold-worked state. The large gain in ductility is observed for all of the temperatures tested (between 20°C and 400°C) and occurs concomitantly with an increase in the strain hardening rate of the material. One plausible hypothesis to explain this improvement of the mechanical behaviour relies on the nanometric titanium carbides formed during the aging process. These precipitates could act as obstacles that impede the motion of existing dislocations, thereby contributing an additional strain hardening mechanism, which would lead to greater strength and also delay the onset of strain localization.

Plane Strain Deformation

A modified expanding cavity model (M-ECM) is developed to describe subsurface deformation for strain-hardening materials loaded in unit deformation configurations occurring in surface mechanical attrition. The predictive results of this model are validated by comparison with unit deformation experiments in a model material, oxygen free high conductivity copper, using a custom designed plane strain deformation setup. Subsurface displacement and strain fields are characterized using in-situ digital image correlation. It is shown that conventional analytical models used to describe plastic response in strain-hardening metals are not able to predict important characteristics of the morphology of the plastic zone, including evolution of the dead metal zone (DMZ), especially at large plastic depths. The M-ECM developed in the present study provides an accurate prediction of the strain distribution obtained in experiment and is of utility as a component in multi-stage process models of the final surface state in surface mechanical attrition.

Longitudinal Strains

Pipelines in certain regions are expected to survive high longitudinal strains induced by seismic activities, slope instability, frost heave, and mine subsidence. Material properties, of both pipes and girth welds, are critical contributing factors to a pipeline’s strain capacity. These factors are examined in this paper with particular focus on the modern high strength pipes (grade X70 and above) usually made from microalloyed control-rolled TMCP steels. The examination of the tensile properties of pipes includes some of the most basic parameters such as yield strength, strength variation within a pipe, and newly emerging issues of strength and strain hardening dependence on temperature. The girth weld tensile properties, particularly yield strength, are shown to be dependent on the location of the test specimen. There are strong indications from the tested welds that strain hardening of the welds is dependent on test temperature. The effects of strain aging on pipe and girth weld properties are reviewed. This line of reasoning is extended to possible strain aging effects during field construction, although experimental evidence is lacking at this moment. The paper concludes with considerations of practical implementation of the findings presented in the early part of the paper. Recommendations are made to effectively deal with some of the challenging issues related to the specification and measurement of tensile properties for strain-based design.

Average Grain Size

As everyday equipment becomes smaller and smaller, it is of increasing importance that the manufacturing processes used for metals are capable of producing parts of appropriate sizes. Currently, manufacturing processes assume macromaterial properties can be applied for microscale production, but is this a valid assumption? This paper investigates the accuracy of applying macroscale tensile properties in microscale applications. In order to test the soundness of this supposition, tensile tests were performed on both macroscale and microscale brass specimens, and the resulting calculated material properties, strain hardening exponent (n) and strength coefficient (K), were compared. Specimens were heat treated to various temperatures before tensile tests were performed, and the strength coefficient and strain hardening exponents of micro and macro tensile specimens were compared. Additionally, it is investigated whether average grain size correlates to material properties. The results showed that in general it is not accurate to apply macroscale tensile properties to microscale applications. However, at mesocale grain sizes, (12–20 microns), the strain hardening exponent values were similar for both macro and microscale specimens.

In this paper, the tensile properties of JLF-1 steel at strain rate of 0.1%/s and 0.02%/s were studied from room temperature to 873K in vacuum using engineering specimens. The strain rate does not affect YS, UTS and RA as far as the tests performed in this study. Strain hardening of JLF-1 steel decreased significantly above 673 K, RA also increased rapidly above 673 K; and the surface fractography was changed from shear fracture below 673 K to dimple fracture at 773 K and 873 K. That means JLF-1 steel becomes perfect elastic-plastic body (without strain hardening) and ductility improved with temperature increase.
