Book High throughput Screening of High entropy Alloys for Advanced Nuclear Applications

Download or read book High throughput Screening of High entropy Alloys for Advanced Nuclear Applications written by Michael Joseph Moorehead and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New materials, including high-entropy alloys (HEAs), are being investigated to satisfy demandingrequirements for next-generation nuclear reactors. Unfortunately, the alloy discovery and development process for nuclear materials is prohibitively slow, even relative to other industries. This work covers the development and application of new high-throughput techniques to synthesize, irradiate, and characterize novel alloys for such applications. Using a LENS MR-7 directed energy deposition (DED) 3D metal printer, a process is developed in which alloys of arbitrary compositions are rapidly produced in regular arrays of "bulk" coupons. These compositional arrays have been heat treated and mechanically polished in parallel before being irradiated with heavy ions at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Ion Beam Laboratory (IBL). To accommodate the large sample arrays, an automated high-throughput irradiation system was developed and installed in the IBL, equipped with an IR laser to locally heat individual samples, which has since been used to irradiate nearly 100 samples to end-of-life damage levels for core components in proposed advanced reactors. Using automated nanoindentation and optical profilometry, the hardening and swelling of many Cr-Fe-Mn-Ni HEAs has been measured and trends in the irradiation response as a function of composition are examined. Of the elements in the Cr-Fe-Mn-Ni system, Cr and Ni appear to affect the swelling behavior most predominantly, with swelling increasing monotonically with increasing Cr concentration while swelling increases with Ni concentration up to ~30 at% before rapidly dropping with continued Ni additions until approaching pure Ni. Trends in swelling behavior are in good agreement with previous ion irradiation studies of Cr-Fe-Ni alloys in literature, which also serves to validate the overall high-throughput methodology employed in this work. Using the techniques described herein, immense time savings over traditional techniques are realized such that a single compositional array of 25 alloy coupons can by synthesized, heat treated, mechanically polished, irradiated, and characterized in less than a week

Book A review on high throughput development of high entropy alloys by combinatorial methods

Download or read book A review on high throughput development of high entropy alloys by combinatorial methods written by Shahryar Mooraj and published by OAE Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are an emerging class of alloys with multi-principal elements that greatly expands the compositional space for advanced alloy design. Besides chemistry, processing history can also affect the phase and microstructure formation in HEAs. The number of possible alloy compositions and processing paths gives rise to enormous material design space, which makes it challenging to explore by traditional trial-and-error approaches. This review highlights the progress in combinatorial high-throughput studies towards rapid prediction, manufacturing, and characterization of promising HEA compositions. This review begins with an introduction to HEAs and their unique properties. Then, this review describes high-throughput computational methods such as machine learning that can predict desired alloy compositions from hundreds or even thousands of candidates. The next section presents advances in combinatorial synthesis of material libraries by additive manufacturing for efficient development of high-performance HEAs at bulk scale. The final section discusses the high-throughput characterization techniques used to accelerate the material property measurements for systematic understanding of the composition-processing-structure-property relationships in combinatorial HEA libraries.

Book excerpt: This book draws on the latest research to discuss the history and development of high-entropy alloys and ceramics in bulk, film, and fiber form. High-entropy materials have recently been developed using the entropy of mixing and entropy of configuration of materials, and have proven to exhibit unique properties superior to those of conventional materials. The field of high-entropy alloys was born in 2004, and has since been developed for both scientific and engineering applications. Although there is extensive literature, this field is rapidly transforming. This book highlights the cutting edge of high-entropy materials, including their fundamentals and applications. Above all, it reflects two major milestones in their development: the equi-atomic ratio single-phase high-entropy alloys; and the non-equi-atomic ratio dual-phase high-entropy alloys.

Book High Entropy Materials

Download or read book High Entropy Materials written by Weidong Li and published by Mdpi AG. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reprint of a special issue of Metals (ISSN 2075-4701), titled High Entropy Materials: Challenges and Prospects. It is a compilation of nine articles from different aspects of high-entropy materials. The book primarily focuses on high-entropy alloys, the first emergent high-entropy materials, but also covers high-entropy ceramics and high-entropy composites, which are the extensions of high-entropy alloys. The articles on high-entropy alloys cover some important facets in the field such as phase structures, mechanical properties, laser beam welding, design of soft magnetic alloys, and potential as biomaterials. In addition, there are one article introducing the potential of using high-entropy carbides as hard metals for machining, and one another on high-entropy composite studying the microstructures and tribological properties of the FeCoNiCuAl-TiC composite. The goal of this reprinted book is essentially two-fold. In the first place, it offers a platform for researchers in the broad field of high-entropy materials to communicate their views and recent research on the subject. Next, it reports challenges in the sub-fields of high-entropy materials and inspires researchers to continue to practice diligence to resolve these challenges and advance high-entropy materials solidly. We hope that readers in the field feel encouraged, inspired, and challenged by the book, and readers outside the field can grasp some basic ideals of high-entropy materials and their potential to the society as a family of novel materials.

Book Fundamentals of Radiation Materials Science

Download or read book Fundamentals of Radiation Materials Science written by GARY S. WAS and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 1014 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revised second edition of this established text offers readers a significantly expanded introduction to the effects of radiation on metals and alloys. It describes the various processes that occur when energetic particles strike a solid, inducing changes to the physical and mechanical properties of the material. Specifically it covers particle interaction with the metals and alloys used in nuclear reactor cores and hence subject to intense radiation fields. It describes the basics of particle-atom interaction for a range of particle types, the amount and spatial extent of the resulting radiation damage, the physical effects of irradiation and the changes in mechanical behavior of irradiated metals and alloys. Updated throughout, some major enhancements for the new edition include improved treatment of low- and intermediate-energy elastic collisions and stopping power, expanded sections on molecular dynamics and kinetic Monte Carlo methodologies describing collision cascade evolution, new treatment of the multi-frequency model of diffusion, numerous examples of RIS in austenitic and ferritic-martensitic alloys, expanded treatment of in-cascade defect clustering, cluster evolution, and cluster mobility, new discussion of void behavior near grain boundaries, a new section on ion beam assisted deposition, and reorganization of hardening, creep and fracture of irradiated materials (Chaps 12-14) to provide a smoother and more integrated transition between the topics. The book also contains two new chapters. Chapter 15 focuses on the fundamentals of corrosion and stress corrosion cracking, covering forms of corrosion, corrosion thermodynamics, corrosion kinetics, polarization theory, passivity, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. Chapter 16 extends this treatment and considers the effects of irradiation on corrosion and environmentally assisted corrosion, including the effects of irradiation on water chemistry and the mechanisms of irradiation-induced stress corrosion cracking. The book maintains the previous style, concepts are developed systematically and quantitatively, supported by worked examples, references for further reading and end-of-chapter problem sets. Aimed primarily at students of materials sciences and nuclear engineering, the book will also provide a valuable resource for academic and industrial research professionals. Reviews of the first edition: "...nomenclature, problems and separate bibliography at the end of each chapter allow to the reader to reach a straightforward understanding of the subject, part by part. ... this book is very pleasant to read, well documented and can be seen as a very good introduction to the effects of irradiation on matter, or as a good references compilation for experimented readers." - Pauly Nicolas, Physicalia Magazine, Vol. 30 (1), 2008 “The text provides enough fundamental material to explain the science and theory behind radiation effects in solids, but is also written at a high enough level to be useful for professional scientists. Its organization suits a graduate level materials or nuclear science course... the text was written by a noted expert and active researcher in the field of radiation effects in metals, the selection and organization of the material is excellent... may well become a necessary reference for graduate students and researchers in radiation materials science.” - L.M. Dougherty, 07/11/2008, JOM, the Member Journal of The Minerals, Metals and Materials Society.
