Methods applied are X-ray texture analysis, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and optical microscopy. The results show a serious impact of the Zener-Hollomon parameter on cube texture evolution during the thermomechanical treatment in iron-containing aluminium alloys. An increase in the Zener-Hollomon parameter reduces the survivability of cube texture during hot deformation and reinforces particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN) during the annealing process. However, thermomechanical treatment at low temperatures leads to active precipitation and as a result fine-dispersed participles tend to block all nuclei except for those producing large cube-oriented grains. It is concluded that in iron-containing wrought aluminium alloys, the general correlation between the Zener-Hollomon parameter and subgrain size is similar to that observed in 3xxx series alloys and can be described by the specific set of equations derived.展开更多

It was applied using the example of an Mg-stabilized zirconia reinforced TRIP-matrix-composite. The content of the ceramic phase was varied between 5% and 20%, whereas the particle size of the ceramic was selected to be 30 to 50 μm. The method is a further development of mixture rule for multiphase materials with more than two microstructure components. The prediction results were compared with the original method of mixture rule and with the IsoE-method. It is shown that the new method significantly improves the convergence compared to the standard method for mixture rule, even though it does not reach the accuracy of IsoE-method. Furthermore, there is an improvement of predicted convergence for large values of the total stress. Finally, a working map was designed for a quick graphical definition of the objective functions.展开更多

The aim was to determine and analyze the influence of laser working parameters on the formability of sheet material by means of an in-depth characterization of this induced microstructural and geometric inhomogeneity. The electrochemical etching served as the reference method without the negative effect of generating inhomogeneity. The formability was evaluated using the cupping test according to Erichsen. While the quantification of geometric inhomogeneity was based on the determination of the notch factor, light microscopy and microhardness measurement were used for the evaluation of microstructural inhomogeneity. Furthermore, on the basis of the results an empirical regression model was established which described in terms of quantity the relationship between the examined factors such as laser power, pulse frequency and scanning speed as well as the command variable and the mark depth. The results showed that microstructural inhomogeneity in the used marking parameters due to their locally very limited formation did not have an appreciable influence on the mechanical properties. In contrast to this, the induced geometric inhomogeneity had a marked influence on the material formability.展开更多
