An experimental neutron diffraction technique was used to measure residual strains that developed in multiphase composite materials during postfabrication cooling as a result of thermal expansion mismatch or volume expansion due to change in crystal structure. The reinforcement geometries that were studied include unidirectional fibers, randomly oriented single crystal whiskers, and equiaxed particles. Both metal and ceramic matrices and reinforcements were considered. In some cases, the measured data compared fairly well with predictions based on simple elastic models. In other cases, either creep was shown to relax the residual strains during cooling, or the interpretation of the measured data contained uncertainties due to texture in the samples or lack of a clearly defined crystal structure for the reinforcement phase.

The vortex matter in bulk type II superconductors serves as a prototype system for studying the random pinning problem in condensed matter physics. Since the vortex lattice is embedded in an atomic lattice, small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is the only technique that allows for direct structural studies. In traditional SANS methods, the scattering intensity is a measure of the structure factor averaged over the entire sample. Recent studies in vortex physics have shown that it is highly desirable to develop a SANS technique that is capable of resolving the spatial inhomogeneities in the bulk vortex state. This article reports a novel slicing neutron diffraction technique using atypical collimation and an areal detector, which allows for observing the three-dimensional disorder of the vortex matter inside an as-grown Nb single crystal.

A time-resolved time-of-flight neutron diffraction technique to characterize the structural properties of materials during cyclic tests has been developed for the neutron diffractometers at J-PARC. Using this technique, diffracted neutrons and the applied cyclic conditions are recorded as event data together with time information. The amplitude and phase of the conditions of all recorded neutron signals can be specified by using the characteristics of the event data. By adopting the developed technique, the behaviors of the crystal lattice and domains of the piezoelectric material in a multilayer-type piezoelectric actuator driven by a cyclic electric field were evaluated. The developed technique enabled the collection and processing of diffraction data for all levels of the applied electric field, as opposed to only the highest and lowest levels. The variation in diffraction intensity during the application of a cyclic electric field was obtained successfully, and the hysteresis-like behaviors of both the lattice strain and the 90° domain switching were revealed.

Abstract The powder pattern of crystalline cubic deuterated acetylene recorded by thermal neutron diffraction technique and the Pa3 crystal structure assigned to the high phase of C2H2 are com-pared. The observations are not in disagreement with the theoretical pattern. Values for the lattice parameters in a narrow temperature range are given.

In this research the neutron diffraction technique was used to investigate the residual stress distributions in carbon steel components with weld repairs. Two full penetration weld repairs were studied using a) the stringer bead and b) the temper bead weld techniques in 25 mm thick plate. The welds were not post weld heat treated. The focus of the measurements is on the values of the sub-surface and through-thickness strain/stress variation near the middle of the weld and the toe. The experimental results showed that both processes had high residual stresses particularly through the thickness. The measurements were compared with current fitness-for-purpose approaches, such as BS7910 and R6 showing that these approaches underestimated and overestimated the stresses in various regions.

Neutron diffraction was used to describe the residual stress distributions in self-piercing riveted (SPR) joints. The sheet material displayed a compressive residual stress near the joint, and the stress gradually became tensile in the sheet material far away from the joint. The stress in the rivet leg was lower in the thick joint of the softer steel sheet than in the thin joint of the harder steel sheet. This lower magnitude was attributed to the lower force gradient during the rivet flaring stage of the SPR process curve. This study shows how the residual stress results may be related to the physical occurrences that happened during joining, using the characteristics curve. The study also shows that neutron diffraction technique enabled a crack in the rivet tip to be detected which was not apparent from a cross-section.
