Book Microstructure Property Optimization in Metallic Glasses

Download or read book Microstructure Property Optimization in Metallic Glasses written by Baran Sarac and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis consists of an in-depth study of investigating microstructure-property relationships in bulk metallic glasses using a novel quantitative approach by which influence of the second phase features on mechanical properties can be independently and systematically analyzed. The author evaluates and optimizes the elastic and plastic deformation, as well as the overall toughness of cellular honeycombs under in-plane compression and porous heterostructures under uniaxial tension. The study reveals three major deformation zones in cellular metallic glass structures, where deformation changes from collective buckling showing non-linear elasticity to localized failure exhibiting a brittle-like deformation, and finally to global sudden failure with negligible plasticity as the length to thickness ratio of the ligaments increases. The author found that spacing and size of the pores, the pore configuration within the matrix, and the overall width of the sample determines the extent of deformation, where the optimized values are attained for pore diameter to spacing ratio of one with AB type pore stacking.

Book Characterizing Structure  Properties  and Deformation in Metallic Glasses and Olivine Using Instrumented Nanoindentation

Download or read book Characterizing Structure Properties and Deformation in Metallic Glasses and Olivine Using Instrumented Nanoindentation written by Kelly Kranjc and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro- and nanomechanical testing can provide significant insight about the structure, properties, and behavior of materials. These techniques are nondestructive, require only limited amounts of material, and have been known to detect a brittle-to-ductile transition in mechanical behavior due to a size effect. This work utilizes this type of testing to explore fundamental questions about the structure, properties, and behavior of two disparate material systems: metallic glasses and olivine. Metallic glasses are metallic alloys devoid of any long-range order. Their unique atomic structure imbues them with properties such as a high elastic strain limit, near-theoretical strengths, and the ability to be thermoplastically formed. Despite their high strengths, metallic glasses suffer from an intrinsic lack of tensile ductility compared to other high-performance materials. Recent studies have shown that the macroscopic deformation behavior of these materials might be controlled by structural heterogeneities, the exact nature of which remains ill-defined. To further this area of research, the heterogeneous microstructure of a Zr-based monolithic bulk metallic glass as well as the glass phase of a Ti-based bulk metallic glass matrix-crystalline composite was investigated using nanoindentation and dynamic modulus mapping. Significant spatial variations in the mechanical properties measured by both techniques suggest a hierarchical arrangement of mechanical heterogeneities in bulk metallic glasses and their composites. Moreover, a previously unobserved elastic microstructure, comprising an interconnected network of elastic features, was revealed by dynamic modulus mapping. Parameters such as aspect ratio and orientation of the microstructural features were defined here, which highlighted the presence of microstructural domains or colonies in the elastic microstructure. The effects of heat treatment and deformation on these heterogeneities were also investigated. The rheology of olivine plays an important role in the dynamics of Earth's upper mantle. At conditions of low temperature and high stress, such as in semi-brittle regions of the lithosphere, the deformation mechanism transitions into low temperature plasticity. Low temperature plasticity is difficult to study in typical laboratory conditions, requiring high confining pressures to suppress cracking in favor of dislocation glide. Low temperature plasticity of olivine was investigated using nanoindentation and micropillar compression. Nanoindentation provided a means of achieving plastic deformation in the absence of cracking, but measurements obtained via this method are notoriously difficult to translate into uniaxial properties. Using available models to obtain these properties, the data were fit to an established low temperature plasticity flow law, which predicted Peierls stresses for the olivine in the range of 5.32 - 6.45 GPa. As a complement to the nanoindentation, room temperature plasticity was also achieved using micropillar compression. While some of the pillars exhibited catastrophic shearing after a dwell time during creep testing, other pillars showed evidence of plastic deformation after creep testing that was confirmed to be dislocation slip. The data obtained from the micropillar compression was in good agreement with the flow law fits from the nanoindentation. These results provide increased confidence in the extrapolation of high-pressure and high-temperature laboratory experiments to low-temperature conditions and illustrate the applicability of micromechanical testing methods to the study of mineral rheology.

Book Exploring Strategies to Tune the Structure and Properties of Metallic Glasses

Download or read book Exploring Strategies to Tune the Structure and Properties of Metallic Glasses written by Vrishank Ramprasad Jambur and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metallic glasses have garnered significant attention due to their unique properties, offering promising applications in various fields. However, their widespread use has been limited by factors such as a limited composition space with good glass forming ability and poor ductility. In order to optimize their performance, understanding the intricate relationships between their structure, mechanical properties, and processing methods is of the highest importance. This thesis delves into different strategies to fine-tune the structure and properties of metallic glasses through the use of minor alloying and vapor deposition techniques. In the third chapter, we focus on a novel approach to controlling the properties of thin film metallic glasses through ion beam assisted deposition. Our results demonstrate the potential of ion beam-assisted deposition as a viable and promising method for engineering metallic glasses with increased hardness and kinetic stability. We also highlight the key role of surface mobility in allowing glasses to access more stable states through the vapor deposition processes. Expanding the scope of our study, the fourth chapter explores the application of vapor deposition to oxide glasses. We investigate how vapor deposition can be effectively utilized to control the properties of amorphous SiO2 films, providing valuable insights into the structure-mechanical property relationships in this industrially important glass with several anomalous thermo-mechanical behaviors. In the fifth chapter, we investigate the influence of minor alloying on the mechanical properties of metallic glasses. Contrary to conventional approaches that focus solely on topological ordering, our research reveals that chemical bonding plays an equally important role in determining the mechanical behavior of metallic glasses. By examining the impact of various minor alloying elements on mechanical properties, we gain a deeper understanding of the interplay between chemical and topological factors in controlling the mechanical properties of glasses. Continuing the exploration of structure - mechanical property correlations, the last chapter delves into factors determining the plasticity of metallic glasses, where we find that plastic deformation in metallic glasses is influenced by several structural features that span across different length scales. Through these interconnected chapters, this thesis presents a comprehensive understanding of diverse strategies to tune the structure and properties of metallic glasses. This work paves the way for further advancements in the design and development of metallic glasses and other glassy materials with tailored properties, opening up new avenues for exciting applications in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook offers a strong introduction to the fundamental concepts of materials science. It conveys the quintessence of this interdisciplinary field, distinguishing it from merely solid-state physics and solid-state chemistry, using metals as model systems to elucidate the relation between microstructure and materials properties. Mittemeijer's Fundamentals of Materials Science provides a consistent treatment of the subject matter with a special focus on the microstructure-property relationship. Richly illustrated and thoroughly referenced, it is the ideal adoption for an entire undergraduate, and even graduate, course of study in materials science and engineering. It delivers a solid background against which more specialized texts can be studied, covering the necessary breadth of key topics such as crystallography, structure defects, phase equilibria and transformations, diffusion and kinetics, and mechanical properties. The success of the first edition has led to this updated and extended second edition, featuring detailed discussion of electron microscopy, supermicroscopy and diffraction methods, an extended treatment of diffusion in solids, and a separate chapter on phase transformation kinetics. “In a lucid and masterly manner, the ways in which the microstructure can affect a host of basic phenomena in metals are described.... By consistently staying with the postulated topic of the microstructure - property relationship, this book occupies a singular position within the broad spectrum of comparable materials science literature .... it will also be of permanent value as a reference book for background refreshing, not least because of its unique annotated intermezzi; an ambitious, remarkable work.” G. Petzow in International Journal of Materials Research. “The biggest strength of the book is the discussion of the structure-property relationships, which the author has accomplished admirably.... In a nutshell, the book should not be looked at as a quick ‘cook book’ type text, but as a serious, critical treatise for some significant time to come.” G.S. Upadhyaya in Science of Sintering. “The role of lattice defects in deformation processes is clearly illustrated using excellent diagrams . Included are many footnotes, ‘Intermezzos’, ‘Epilogues’ and asides within the text from the author’s experience. This ..... soon becomes valued for the interesting insights into the subject and shows the human side of its history. Overall this book provides a refreshing treatment of this important subject and should prove a useful addition to the existing text books available to undergraduate and graduate students and researchers in the field of materials science.” M. Davies in Materials World.
