Book Plasticity and Damage in Bimodal Grain Size Al 5083

Download or read book Plasticity and Damage in Bimodal Grain Size Al 5083 written by Steven Nelson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bimodal and nanocrystalline aluminum alloys are being investigated as stronger replacements for conventional polycrystalline aluminum alloys. Higher strengths are achieved by reducing the grain size of a metal; however, as the grain size is reduced the ductility diminishes. One solution that limits this decrease in ductility is the addition of a few microcrystalline grains into a nanocrystalline alloy, creating a bimodal microstructure that offers a better balance of strength and ductility. Two- and three-dimensional microstructural finite element (FE) simulations of monotonic and fatigue failures in Al-5083 having bimodal grain structures are conducted. To reduce the computational time and facilitate the modeling of microstructural features, a global-local model is developed. Macroscopic linear elastic and nonlinear plastic properties for each of the bimodal compositions are first used to simulate the tensile and fatigue tests in a global FE model. Subsequently, a local model that represents a single element at the center of the global model is built with distinct coarse grains (CGs) distributed throughout an ultra-fine grain (UFG) matrix. Ten percent of the elements in this model are defined as CGs, after which nanocrystalline and polycrystalline properties are assigned to the UFG and CG regions, respectively. Available fatigue test data is utilized to generate a low cycle fatigue damage model for bimodal grains size Al-5083 and obtain the damage model constants for varied levels of coarse grains. This fatigue damage model is then used in conjunction with a finite element continuum damage modeling approach, namely, successive initiation, to predict the damage and crack initiation sites and propagation paths in bimodal grains size alloys. The successive initiation method is used to continually accumulate damage in elements and initiate and propagate the crack through grains that reach the failure criteria defined for monotonic and cyclic loading. It is observed from the monotonic FE model that cracks initiate on the boundaries between CGs and UFGs then propagate through the UFG matrix around the CG until they become large enough to extend into the CGs themselves. In the cyclic FE models, the crack is observed to initiate in a CG and propagate along the CG and the surrounding UFG matrix.

Book Development of Superplasticity in 5083 Aluminum with Additions of Mn and Zr

Download or read book Development of Superplasticity in 5083 Aluminum with Additions of Mn and Zr written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The superplastic behavior of the 5083 aluminum alloy with additions of Mn and Zr was studied by uniaxial tensile testing and microstructural evaluations. Additions of up to 0.2% Zr and 0.8% Mn were made to a base 5083 aluminum alloy to decrease the grain size and improve superplastic behavior. Constant strain-rate tensile test data were used to determine strain-rate sensitivity (m values) and elongations-to-failure for the alloys at strain rates ranging from 4 x 10−4 to 1 x 10−1 s−1 at temperatures of 450 to 550C. Elongations-to-failure of up to 400% at 1 x 10−2 s−1 were achieved for the modified alloys. The strain-rate sensitivity for the alloys as a function of strain was determined and two distinct behaviors were observed. For the alloys having composition close to the base 5083 alloy, the m value steadily decreased with increasing strain; however, in alloys with higher levels of Zr, the m value remained stable. A maximum m value of 0.65 was achieved at 0.7 strain for the 1.6% Mn and 0.2% Zr alloy at 1 x 10−3 s−1.

Book excerpt: Heterostructured (HS) materials represent an emerging class of materials that are expected to become a major research field for the communities of materials, mechanics, and physics in the next couple of decades. One of the biggest advantages of HS materials is that they can be produced by large-scale industrial facilities and technologies and therefore can be commercialized without the scaling up and high-cost barriers that are often encountered by other advanced materials. This book collects recent papers on the progress in the field of HS materials, especially their fundamental physics. The papers are arranged in a sequence of chapters that will help new researchers entering the field to have a quick and comprehensive understanding of HS materials, including the fundamentals and recent progress in their processing, characterization, and properties.

Book Manufacturing and Application of Stainless Steels

Download or read book Manufacturing and Application of Stainless Steels written by Andrea Di Schino and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stainless steels represent a quite interesting material family, both from a scientific and commercial point of view, following to their excellent combination in terms of strength and ductility together with corrosion resistance. Thanks to such properties, stainless steels have been indispensable for the technological progress during the last century and their annual consumption increased faster than other materials. They find application in all these fields requiring good corrosion resistance together with ability to be worked into complex geometries. Despite to their diffusion as a consolidated materials, many research fields are active regarding the possibility to increase stainless steels mechanical properties and corrosion resistance by grain refinement or by alloying by interstitial elements. At the same time innovations are coming from the manufacturing process of such a family of materials, also including the possibility to manufacture them starting from metals powder for 3D printing. The Special Issue scope embraces interdisciplinary work covering physical metallurgy and processes, reporting about experimental and theoretical progress concerning microstructural evolution during processing, microstructure-properties relations, applications including automotive, energy and structural.

Book Mechanical Properties of Nanocrystalline Materials

Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Nanocrystalline Materials written by James C. M. Li and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-09-02 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book concentrates on both understanding and development of nanocrystalline materials. The original relation that connects grain size and strength, known as the Hall-Petch relation, is studied in the nanometer grain size region. The breakdown of such a relation is a challenge. Why and how to overcome it? Is the dislocation mechanism still operating when the grain size is very small, approaching the amorphous limit? How do we go from the microstructure information to the continuum description of the mechanical properties?
