Item Open Access Investigation of oxide layer development of X6CrNiNb18-10 stainless steel exposed to high-temperature water(2024) Veile, Georg; Hirpara, Radhika; Lackmann, Simon; Weihe, StefanThe oxide layer development of X6CrNiNb18-10 (AISI 347) during exposure to high-temperature water has been investigated. Stainless steels are known to form a dual oxide layer in corrosive environments. The secondary Fe-rich oxide layer has no significant protective effect. In contrast, the primary Cr-rich oxide layer is known to reach a stabilized state, protecting the base metal from further oxidation. This study’s purpose was to determine the development of oxide layer dimensions over exposure time using SEM, TEM and EDX line scans. While a parabolic development of Cr in the protective primary layer and Fe in the secondary layer was observed, the dimensions of the Ni layer remained constant. Ni required the presence of a pronounced Fe-rich secondary layer before being able to reside on the outer secondary layer. With increasing immersion time, the Ni element fraction surpassed the Cr element fraction in the secondary layer. Oxide growth on the secondary layer could be observed. After 480 h, nearly the entire surface was covered by the outer oxide layer. In the metal matrix, no depletion of Cr or Ni could be observed over time; however, an increased presence of Cr and Ni in the primary layer was found at the expense of Fe content. The Nb-stabilized stainless steel was subject to the formation of Niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5), with the quantity and magnitude of element fraction increasing over exposure time.Item Open Access Untersuchung der biologischen Wirkung polymerer Werkstoffe für Hohlfasern in Entsalzungsanlagen, die nach dem Prinzip der umgekehrten Osmose arbeiten(1980) Solochina, T.

This research investigates the friction stir welding of thin aluminum and steel sheets, an essential process in the production of hybrid tailor-welded blanks employed in deep drawing applications. Despite its proven advantages, the welding process exhibits variable outcomes concerning formability and joint strength when utilizing an H13 welding tool. To better understand these inconsistencies, multiple welds were performed in this study, joining 1 mm thick steel to 2 mm thick aluminum sheets, with a cumulative length of 7.65 m. The accumulation of material on the welding tool was documented through 3D scanning and weighing. The integrity of the resulting weld seam was analyzed through metallographic sections and X-ray imaging. It was found that the adhering material built up continuously around the tool pin over several welds totaling between 1.5 m and 2.5 m before ultimately detaching. This accretion of material notably affected the welding process, resulting in increased intermixing of steel particles within the aluminum matrix. This research provides detailed insights into the dynamics of friction stir welding in multi-material welds, particularly in the context of tool material interaction and its impact on weld quality.Item Open Access Investigations of metallurgical differences in AISI 347 and their influence on deformation and transformation behaviour and resulting fatigue life(2024) Veile, Georg; Regitz, Elen; Smaga, Marek; Weihe, Stefan; Beck, TillmannDue to variations in chemical composition and production processes, homonymous austenitic stainless steels can differ significantly regarding their initial microstructure, metastability, and thus, their fatigue behavior. Microstructural investigations and fatigue tests have been performed in order to evaluate this aspect. Three different batches and production forms of nominally one type of steel AISI 347 were investigated under monotonic tensile tests and cyclic loading under total strain and stress control in low and high cycle fatigue regimes, respectively. The deformation induced α’-martensite formation was investigated globally by means of in situ magnetic measurements and locally using optical light microscopy of color etching of micrographs. The investigation showed that the chemical composition and the different production processes influence the material behavior. In fatigue tests, a higher metastability and thus a higher level of deformation induced α’-martensite pronounced cyclic hardening, resulting in significantly greater endurable stresses in total strain-controlled tests and an increase in fatigue life in stress-controlled tests. For applications of non-destructive-testing, detailed knowledge of a component’s metastability is required. In less metastable batches and for lower stress levels, α’-martensite primarily formed at the plasticization zone of a crack. Furthermore, the formation and nucleation points of α’-martensite were highly dependent on grain size and the presence of δ-ferrite. This study provides valuable insights into the different material behavior of three different batches with the same designation, i.e., AISI 347, due to different manufacturing processes and differences in the chemical composition, metastability, and microstructure.Item Open Access Über die hygienische Bewertung von entsalztem Wasser, das durch umgekehrte Osmose in "Filter-Presse"-Anlagen gewonnen wurde(1980) Selivanov, S.

At present, a lack of information related to degradation mechanisms in structures and materials is covered by safety factors in its design, and in some cases, the replacement of components is prescribed after a determined period of time without knowledge of the true degree of degradation. In the collaborative project “Microstructure-based assessment of maximum service life of nuclear materials and components exposed to corrosion and fatigue (MibaLeb)”, a methodology for the assessment of materials’ degradation is being developed, which combines the use of NDT techniques for materials characterization, an optimized fatigue lifetime analysis using short time evaluation procedures (STEPs) and numerical simulations. In this investigation, the AISI 347 (X6CrNiNb18-10) is being analyzed at different conditions in order to validate the methodology. Besides microstructural analysis, tensile and fatigue tests, all to characterize the material, a pressurized hot water pipe exposed to a series of flow conditions will be evaluated in terms of full-scale testing as well as prognostic evaluation, where the latter will be based on the materials’ data generated, which should prognose changes in the material’s condition, specifically in a pre-cracked stage. This paper provides an overview of the program, while the more material’s related aspects are presented in the subsequent paper.Item Open Access Energetics of point defects in D0a Ag3Sn : first‐principles calculations(2024) Zotov, NikolayThe Ag3Sn intermetallic compound is commonly found and acts as a strengthening factor in the key lead‐free solders based on Sn‐Ag‐Cu. The Ag3Sn phase exhibits also an asymmetric off‐stoichiometry, which necessitates the existence of constitutional point defects. The presence of point defects can, in general, sensitively affect the plastic deformation of materials and the strengthening role of Ag3Sn in particular. To understand the nature of the point defects and the compositional stability of Ag3Sn, the relaxed structures and the energies of single point defects (vacancies and antisite defects) in all three sublattices of Ag3Sn are calculated at 0 K using ab initio density functional theory (DFT) and the supercell method. The first‐principles‐based calculations predict that the AgSn antisite defect (Ag substitution for Sn) has the smallest enthalpy of formation, thus indicating that the AgSn antisite defect is the dominant point defect in Ag3Sn. The point defect concentrations as a function of Sn content are estimated using the DFT defect energies and the Wagner-Schottky model. The compositional dependence of the point defect concentrations gives new insights on the atomistic mechanisms of formation of nonstoichiometric Ag3Sn.Item Open Access Investigation of the thermo-mechanical modeling of the manufacturing of large-scale wire arc additive manufacturing components with an outlook towards industrial applications(2025) Fritschle, Tim; Kaess, Moritz; Weihe, Stefan; Werz, MartinThe simulation of additive manufacturing processes, such as Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM), is becoming increasingly important to predict material and component properties in advance of the real-life manufacturing. In contrast to prior work focusing on the simulation of simplified WAAM parts, this paper presents an investigation into the thermo-mechanical finite element (FE) simulation of the manufacturing of large-scale WAAM components. The investigation focuses on various problems within the individual steps of the FE workflow wherein ABAQUS influences the modeling of large-scale components. The investigations are founded upon a thermo-mechanically coupled FE model in ABAQUS 2020. For this purpose, several thermo-mechanical simulation models are set up with the target of investigating the meshing, element activation and variation of process parameters. Appropriate discretization of WAAM components is found to be a major problem when setting up a simulation. The meshing of the component is limited by the element type and size and the meshing routines used. Also, differences in the axes of motion for the simulation and the real process cause the simulation to differ from reality. High element start temperatures are found to be beneficial for simulation stability and performance. An integrated parameter variation was made possible with the modeling techniques used.
