Microstructure evolution of alumina dispersion strengthened copper alloy deformed under different conditions

Microstructure and texture evolution of Cu-0.23%Al2O3 dispersion strengthened copper alloy, deformed at room temperature or cryogenic temperature, were investigated. The main textures in hot-extruded specimen were Brass {011} 〈211〉 and Cube {100} 〈100〉. Textures of Brass {011} 〈211〉 and Goss {011} 〈100〉 were observed in specimen after deformation at room temperature; while textures of Brass {011} 〈211〉, Goss {011} 〈100〉 and S {123} 〈634〉 were detected after deformation at cryogenic temperature. It is believed that the additional Al2O3 nanoparticles can result in dislocation pinning effect, which can further lead to the suppression of dislocations cross-slip. While in the specimen deformed at cryogenic temperature, both pinning effect and cryogenic temperature are responsible for the formation of Brass, Goss and S textures.

Effect of pre-deformation on aging creep of Al-Li-S4 alloy and its constitutive modeling

A set of uniaxial tensile creep tests at different pre-deformations, aging temperatures and stress levels were carried out for Al-Li-S4 alloy, and the creep behavior and the effects of pre-deformation on mechanical properties and microstructures were determined under basic thermodynamics conditions of aging forming. The results show that pre-deformation shortens the time of primary creep and raises the second steady-state creep rate. Then, the total creep strain is greater, but in the range of test parameters it is still smaller than that without pre-deformation. In addition, transmission electron microscopy（TEM） observation shows that pre-deformation promotes the formation of T1 phase and θ′ phase and makes them distribute more dispersively, while inhibits the generation of δ′ phase, which leads to the improvement of mechanical properties of the alloy. A unified constitutive model reflecting the effects of aging mechanism, stress levels and different pre-deformations was established. The fitting results agree with the experimental data well.

Microstructure evolution of 7050 aluminum alloy during hot deformation

Hot compression of 7050 aluminum alloy was performed on Gleeble 1500D thermo-mechanical simulator at 350 ℃ and 450 ℃ with a constant strain rate of 0.1 s-1 to different nominal strains of 0.1, 0.3 and 0.7. Microstructures of 7050 alloy under various compression conditions were observed by TEM to investigate the microstructure evolution process of the alloy deformed at various temperatures. The microstructure evolves from dislocation tangles to cell structure and subgrain structure when being deformed at 350 ℃, of which dynamic recovery is the softening mechanism. However, continuous dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurs during hot deformation at 450 ℃, in which the main nucleation mechanisms of DRX are subgrain growth and subgrain coalescence rather than particle-simulated nucleation (PSN).

Hot compressive deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of HIPed FGH96 superalloy

Hot deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of hot isostatically pressed FGH96 P/M superalloy were studied using isothermal compression tests. The tests were performed on a Gleeble-1500 simulator in a temperature range of 1000-1150 °C and strain rate of 0.001-1.0 s-1, respectively. By regression analysis of the stress—strain data, the constitutive equation for FGH96 superalloy was developed in the form of hyperbolic sine function with hot activation energy of 693.21 kJ/mol. By investigating the deformation microstructure, it is found that partial and full dynamical recrystallization occurs in specimens deformed below and above 1100 °C, respectively, and dynamical recrystallization （DRX） happens more readily with decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature. Finally, equations representing the kinetics of DRX and grain size evolution were established.

Influence of dispersoids on grain subdivision and texture evolution in aluminium alloys during cold rolling

Al-Mn alloys containing similar amounts of solutes but various dispersoid densities were cold rolled. The grain subdivision and micro-texture were examined by electron backscatter diffraction and orientation imaging microscopy. Macro-texture was measured by X-ray diffraction. It is found that a high density of fine dispersoids enhances the development of the copper and S textures at large strains （～3）, and also induces a higher fraction of high-angle grain boundaries. At smaller strains, the texture and high-angle grain boundaries are not evidently influenced by the density of dispersoids. It is suggested that the texture evolution, which is enhanced by dispersoid pinning effect, contributes to the grain subdivision and the formation of high-angle grain boundaries.

Back analysis for soil slope based on measuring inclination data

Based on the analysis of several objective functions,a new method was proposed.Firstly,the feature of the inclination curve was analyzed.On this basis,the soil could be divided into several blocks with different displacements and deformations.Then,the method of the soil division was presented,and the characteristic of single soil block was studied.The displacement of the block had two components:sliding and deformation.Moreover,a new objective function was constructed according to the deformation of the soil block.Finally,the sensitivities of the objective functions by traditional method and the new method were calculated,respectively.The result shows that the new objective function is more sensitive to mechanical parameters and the inversion result is close to that obtained by the large direct shear apparatus.So,this method can be used in slope back analysis and its effectiveness is proved.

Relationship among microstructure,mechanical properties and texture of TA32 titanium alloy sheets during hot tensile deformation

The relationship among microstructure,mechanical properties and texture of TA32 titanium alloy sheets during hot tensile deformation at 800℃was investigated.In the test,the original sheet exhibited relatively low flow stress and sound plasticity,and increasing the heat treatment temperature resulted in an increased ultimate tensile strength(UTS)and a decreased elongation(EL).The deformation mechanism of TA32 alloy was dominated by high angle grain boundaries sliding and coordinated by dislocation motion.The coarsening of grains and the annihilation of dislocations in heat-treated specimens weakened the deformation ability of material,which led to the increase in flow stress.Based on the high-temperature creep equation,the quantitative relationship between microstructure and flow stress was established.The grain size exponent andαphase strength constant of TA32 alloy were calculated to be 1.57 and 549.58 MPa,respectively.The flow stress was accurately predicted by combining with the corresponding phase volume fraction and grain size.Besides,the deformation behavior of TA32 alloy was also dependent on the orientation of predominantαphase,and the main slip mode was the activation of prismaticslip system.The decrease of near prism-oriented texture in heat-treated specimens resulted in the enhancement of strength of the material.

Shape controlling and property optimization of TA32 titanium alloy thin-walled part prepared by hot forming

The hot flow behaviors,microstructure evolution and fractographs were studied to optimize the hot forming process of the TA32 titanium alloy thin-walled part.A set of microstructure-based constitutive equations were developed based on the experimental data,which described the relationships among the hot flow stresses and the evolution of phase volume fraction,dislocation density,grain size and damage.The constitutive model was imported into ABAQUS 6.14 to simulate the hot forming process for a typical thin-walled part.The effective strain,dislocation density and damage distribution as well as forming defects of formed parts under different process parameters were predicted.A qualified part without wrinkling and fracture defects was produced at a loading speed of 5 mm/s at 800℃ by the modified blank shape,where the maximum damage value was only 18.3%.The accuracy of constitutive model and finite element(FE)simulation was verified by the microhardness tests,which indicates that the FE model based on physical internal-state variables can well optimize the hot forming process of TA32 titanium alloy complex parts.

An ultrahigh strength steel produced through deformation-induced ferrite transformation and Q&P process

In this work,DIFT technology and Q&P process were combined in order to introduce ultrafine-grained ferrite into the matrix of martensite and retained austenite to develop a new kind of advanced high strength steel,and two kinds of steels were investigated by this novel combined process.The newly designed process resulted in a sophisticated microstructure of a large amount of ferrite(about 5 m in diameter),martensite and a considerable amount of retained austenite for TRIP 780 steel.The ultimate tensile strength can reach about 1200 MPa with elongation above 16% for TRIP 780,that is much higher than the one solely treated by Q&P process.Tensile tests showed that both steels with the novel combined process achieved a good combination of strength and ductility,indicating that the new process is promising for the new generation of advanced high strength steels.

Simulation of Unsteady State Performance of a Secondary Air System by the 1D-3D-Structure Coupled Method

This paper describes the calculation method for unsteady state conditions in the secondary air systems in gas turbines. The 1D-3D-Structure coupled method was applied. A 1D code was used to model the standard components that have typical geometric characteristics. Their flow and heat transfer were described by empirical correlations based on experimental data or CFD calculations. A 3D code was used to model the non-standard components that cannot be described by typical geometric languages, while a finite element analysis was carried out to compute the structural deformation and heat conduction at certain important positions. These codes were coupled through their interfaces. Thus, the changes in heat transfer and structure and their interactions caused by exterior disturbances can be reflected. The results of the coupling method in an unsteady state showed an apparent deviation from the existing data, while the results in the steady state were highly consistent with the existing data. The difference in the results in the unsteady state was caused primarily by structural deformation that cannot be predicted by the 1D method. Thus, in order to obtain the unsteady state performance of a secondary air system more accurately and efficiently, the 1D-3D-Structure coupled method should be used.
