Influence Of Texture And Grain Size On The Plastic Anisotropy In A Wrought Mg Alloy: Synchrotron X-Ray Diffraction And Visco-Plastic Self-Consistent Modeling, Yi Wang
Doctoral Dissertations
The combined effects of texture and grain size on the yielding and hardening behavior in a hot-rolled AZ31B Mg alloy were studied by using synchrotron x-ray diffraction and visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) simulation methods.
First, the influence of texture on Hall-Petch relationships (namely, critical resolved shear stresses and hardening parameters) in a Mg alloy was investigated to establish a constitutive basis for the VPSC simulation.
Then, the changes in dominant deformation mechanisms (basal, prismatic, and pyramidal slip as well as extension twin) and their relative interactions were studied systematically as a function of the initial texture using a VPSC scheme. The …
Plastic Anisotropy Of Complex Crystals And Hierarchically Structured Alloys Using Micro-Mechanical Computational Analysis, Lin Li
Doctoral Dissertations
The material anisotropy is one of the most important material properties that cannot be disregarded in today’s world of materials designing and manufacturing. As new materials being developed and new material demands are introduced the inevitable focus on anisotropic materials has been brought under the spotlight. In this dissertation, several experimental and simulation project regarding material anisotropic effects on hexagonal close packed crystals such as Silicon Carbide as well and hierarchically structured solid solution ferritic based alloys. The general purpose was to demonstrate the improvement on various intended material properties using finite element method. Since indentation is a widely used …
Characterization Of The Fine-Scale Weld Deposit Microstructure And Its Influence On The Elevated Temperature Properties Of 2.25cr - 1mo - 0.25v Weldments In Heavy Wall Pressure Vessels, Dewey Joshua Burgess
Characterization Of The Fine-Scale Weld Deposit Microstructure And Its Influence On The Elevated Temperature Properties Of 2.25cr - 1mo - 0.25v Weldments In Heavy Wall Pressure Vessels, Dewey Joshua Burgess
Doctoral Dissertations
The research herein was conducted to characterize the fine-scale microstructure of 2.25Cr‑1Mo‑0.25V (22V) submerged arc weld deposits and to study the influence of the microstructure on creep behavior and reheat cracking susceptibility. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy examinations concentrated on carbide morphology and evolution as a function of time and temperature, since the majority of properties that are associated with 22V weld deposits are attributable to the carbide type and location throughout the microstructure.
Five distinct carbides were observed in the range of heat treatments studied: MC, M2C, M23C6, M7C3, and M6C. It was shown that each carbide …
Fatigue, Fracture, And Environmentally-Assisted Behavior Of Advanced Engineering Materials, Zhi Tang
Fatigue, Fracture, And Environmentally-Assisted Behavior Of Advanced Engineering Materials, Zhi Tang
Doctoral Dissertations
The objective of the present study is to provide a fundamental understanding of fatigue, fracture, and environmentally-assisted behavior of high-entropy alloys (HEAs). The work involves fatigue, fracture, and environmentally-assisted behavior of a new kind of advanced engineering materials, called HEAs. Three tasks are studied: (1) microstructures and fracture mechanisms of HEAs, (2) fatigue failure and life prediction of HEAs, and (3) corrosion and environmentally-assisted behavior of HEAs.
In the first task, microstructural stability and fracture mechanism of the AlCoCrFeNi alloy are studied and compared with thermodynamic calculations. In the second task, high-cycle fatigue-failure mechanisms of the cold-rolled Al0.5CoCrCuFeNi alloy are …

An Evaluation Of Void Formation In Ex-Service And Creep Tested Hp Alloy Tubing Used For Hydrocarbon Reforming, Zane William Fox Palmer
An Evaluation Of Void Formation In Ex-Service And Creep Tested Hp Alloy Tubing Used For Hydrocarbon Reforming, Zane William Fox Palmer
Masters Theses
HP alloy tubing is commonly used in petroleum reforming facilities for its high temperature strength and resistance to corrosion. Unfortunately, the tubes can experience failure during service caused by the formation of voids in the tube wall brought on by creep stress generated by the pressure differential and thermal gradient between the inside and outside diameters of the tube. The purpose of this project was to analyze the formation of voids in eight ring sections, each from a different ex-service tube, from a total of three different manufacturers (identified as M1, M2, and M3). Further analysis of the ex-service tubes …
Investigation Of The Phase Transformation Kinetics And Texture Evolution In A Trip Steel Under Complex Loads, Ercan Cakmak
Investigation Of The Phase Transformation Kinetics And Texture Evolution In A Trip Steel Under Complex Loads, Ercan Cakmak
Doctoral Dissertations
The martensitic phase transformation kinetics and its relation with texture evolution and deformation/transformation microstructures under complex loading conditions were investigated in a 304L stainless steel that exhibits the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect when strained at ambient temperature. The applied load paths included torsional and biaxial deformation scenarios including simultaneous biaxial torsion/tension and torsion/compression as well as stepwise deformation of tension followed by torsion. Synchrotron x-ray and electron back-scatter diffraction techniques were used to investigate the phase transformation-microstructure-texture evolutions relations.
Under torsional deformation, the inhomogeneous distribution of martensite phase fractions were recorded through the radius of solid cylindrical specimens consistent …
