Abstract:
The liquid droplets produced by atomization processes are believed to undergo substantial supercooling during solidification, because the catalytic heterogeneities, for statistical reasons, tend to be isolated in the larger droplets. This supercooling can lead to the nucleation of metastable phases. As part of a study on the effect of liquid supercooling on nonequilibrium solidification, three binary Fe-Ni alloys have been produced by conventional argon atomization (Fe-20Ni, Fe-30Ni, and Fe-40Ni). The primary variables in these experiments are: i) the alloy composition; and ii) the powder particle diameter (inversely proportional to supercooling). Of particular interest in this system is the competitive nucleation kinetics between the stable fee and metastable bec phases. Bcc is expected to nucleate preferentially with decreasing %Ni and decreasing particle diameter.

The effect of trace Sc and Zr on grain refinement of Al-7.2Zn-2.2Mg-1.8Cu as-cast ingot was studied by using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy with EDS. The results show that addition of only 0.20% Zr or 0. 20% Sc to Al-7.2Zn-2.2Mg-1.8Cu alloy can refine grains to a certain degree, and the addition of 0.10% Sc+0.20%Zr leads to stronger grain refinement, the average grain size is only 10-15μm.

Abstract:
Crystallization of amorphous thin films composed of doped SbxTe with x = 3.0, 3.6, and 4.2 and constant dopant level was studied by in situ heating in a transmission electron microscopy. Magnetron sputtering was used to deposit 20-nm-thick films sandwiched between two types of 3-nm-thick dielectric layers on 25-nm-thick silicon-nitride membranes. One type of dielectric layer consists of ZnS–SiO2 (ZSO), the other of GeCrN (GCN). Crystallization was studied for temperatures in-between 150 and 190 °C. The type of dielectric layer turned out to strongly influence the crystallization process. Not only did the nucleation rate appear to depend sensitively on the dielectric layer type, but also the growth rate. The velocity of the crystalline/amorphous interface is about 5 times higher for the x = 4.2 film than for the x = 3.0 film if ZSO is used. In case of GCN, the interface velocity is about 2 times higher for the x = 4.2 film than for the x = 3.0 film. The activation energy for crystal growth is not significantly dependent on the Sb/Te ratio but is clearly different for ZSO and GCN—2.9 eV and 2.0 eV, respectively. The incubation time for the crystal nuclei formation is longer for ZSO than for GCN. Although the effects of the Sb/Te ratio and the dielectric layer type on the growth rates are strong, their effects on the nucleation rate are even more pronounced. A higher Sb/Te ratio results in a lower nucleation rate and the use of GCN instead of ZSO leads to higher nucleation rates.

Abstract:
An investigation into the suitability of carbon materials, metallic lead and its alloys as substrates for the zinc electrode in acid Zn-PbO2 flow batteries was performed. No maximum current appears on the potentiostatic current transients recorded for the zinc deposition on the lead and its alloys. With increasing the overpotential, the progressive nucleation turns to be the 3D-instantaneous nucleation process employed for the resin-graphite composite. Hydrogen evolution on the graphite composite is effectively suppressed due to the doping of polymer resins. The rate of hydrogen evolution reaction on the lead is relatively weak, but on the lead alloys, the hydrogen evolution conversely becomes serious to a certain degree. Though the exchange current density of the zinc deposition and dissolution process on the graphite composite is relatively low, the zinc corrosion is weakened to a great extent. With the increase of deposition time, the zinc deposits tend to be more compact. Zinc galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling on the graphite composite reveals that the coulombic of over 90% can be found, exhibiting an excellent cycling stability.

Abstract:
The evolution of internal compressive stress from the intermetallic compound (IMC) Cu6Sn5 growth is commonly acknowledged as the key inducement initiating the nucleation and growth of tin (Sn) whisker. This study investigates the effect of Sn-0.7Cu-0.05Ni on the nucleation and growth of Sn whisker under continuous mechanical stress induced. The Sn-0.7Cu-0.05Ni solder joint has a noticeable effect of suppression by diminishing the susceptibility of nucleation and growth of Sn whisker. By using a synchrotron micro X-ray fluorescence (µ-XRF) spectroscopy, it was found that a small amount of Ni alters the microstructure of Cu6Sn5 to form a (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 intermetallic layer. The morphology structure of the (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 interfacial intermetallic layer and Sn whisker growth were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) in secondary and backscattered electron imaging mode, which showed that there is a strong correlation between the formation of Sn whisker and the composition of solder alloy. The thickness of the (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 IMC interfacial layer was relatively thinner and more refined, with a continuous fine scallop-shaped IMC interfacial layer, and consequently enhanced a greater incubation period for the nucleation and growth of the Sn whisker. These verification outcomes proposes a scientifically foundation to mitigate Sn whisker growth in lead-free solder joint.

Abstract:
In this paper, a new non-lead machinable austenitic stainless steel was investigated. The metallurgical properties, machinability and mechanical properties of the developed alloy were compared with those of the conventional austenitic stainless steel 321. The results have shown that the presence of machinable additives, such as sulfur, copper and bismuth, etc. contributes to the improvement of the machinability of austenitic stainless steel, because the inclusions are something like internal notches causing crack nucleation and facilitating rupture. Bismuth has a distinct advantage over lead. The machinability of the austenitic stainless steels with free-cutting additives is much better than that of austenitic stainless steel 321. The mechanical properties of the free cutting austenitic stainless steel are similar to those of 321 although the former are slightly lower than those of the latter.

The mechanism of hypoeutectic dendrites fragment behaviors among the nucleation area was studied by in-situ imaging and first-principles computation. The results show that the density difference between the fragments and the enriched melt leads to the movement of the fragments. The ejected fragments contributed to the columnar-eutectic transition and expanded the breadth of mush zone in front of the solid/liquid interface.

In this study, [Formula: see text] co-doped and pure hydroxyapatites (HAp) were coated on rough surfaces of Ti6Al4V plates by biomimetic method. Prepared samples were investigated with SEM, EDS, FTIR, XRD and ICP. Furthermore, mechanical scratch tests, profilometer tests and in vitro cell studies were carried out. In order to explore the antibacterial characteristics of the coating, the survival rate of a bacteria named Staphylococcus epidermidis was determined. Structural investigations showed that HAp nucleation began four days after the immersion, expectedly nucleation developed collaterally with the incubation period and co-dopants had considerable effect on surface characteristics. Besides, the pretreatment procedure and dopants had notable impact on mechanical qualifications of the coatings. The critical load values obtained for coating failure were detected above 100[Formula: see text]mN in all types of coatings (max. critical load was obtained from 0.3[Formula: see text]mM co-doped coatings). Cancerous bone cells (SaOS-2) on prepared coatings were evaluated in terms of biological properties. 0.1-C7 and 0.3-C7 exhibited highest reduction percentage among all co-doped samples. Further increase in dopants concentrations up to 0.5[Formula: see text]mM lead to increase in toxicity and decrease in cell proliferation. Antibacterial test results showed the most antibacterial samples were 0.1-C7 and 0.3-C7, the results conformed with cell culture findings.

Abstract:
Large additions of B to Fe-Ni alloys can lead to the formation of an amorphous structure, if the alloy is rapidly cooled from the liquid state to room temperature. Isothermal aging of such structures at elevated temperatures causes crystallization to occur. Commonly such crystallization pro ceeds by the nucleation and growth of spherulites which are spherical crystalline bodies of radiating crystal fibers. Spherulite features were found in the present study in a rapidly solidified alloy that was fully crysstalline as-cast. This alloy was part of a program to develop an austenitic steel for elevated temperature applications by strengthening it with TiB2. The alloy contained a relatively large percentage of B, not to induce an amorphous structure, but only as a consequence of trying to obtain a large volume fracture of TiB2 in the completely processed alloy. The observation of spherulitic features in this alloy is described herein. Utilization of the large range of useful magnifications obtainable in a modern TEM, when a suitably thinned foil is available, was a key element in this analysis.

Abstract:
AbstractThe chapter is devoted to the analysis of the features of local structural rearrangementsin nanostructured materialsunder shear loadingand nanoindentation. The study was carried out using molecular dynamics-based computer simulation. In particular, we investigated the features of symmetric tilt grain boundary migration in bcc and fcc metals under shear loading. The main emphasis was on identifying atomic mechanisms responsible for the migration of symmetric tilt grain boundaries. We revealed that grain boundaries of this type can move with abnormally high velocities up to several hundred meters per second. The grain boundary velocity depends on the shear rate and grain boundary structure. It is important to note that the migration of grain boundary does not lead to the formation of structural defects. We showed that grain boundary moves in a pronounced jump-like manner as a result of a certain sequence of self-consistent displacements of grain boundary atomic planes and adjacent planes. The number of atomic planes involved in the migration process depends on the structure of the grain boundary. In the case of bcc vanadium, five planes participate in the migration of the Σ5(210)[001] grain boundary, and three planes determine the Σ5(310)[001] grain boundary motion. The Σ5(310)[001] grain boundary in fcc nickel moves as a result of rearrangements of six atomic planes. The stacking order of atomic planes participating in the grain boundary migration can change. A jump-like manner of grain boundary motion may be divided into two stages. The first stage is a long time interval of stress increase during shear loading. The grain boundary is motionless during this period and accumulates elastic strain energy. This is followed by the stage of jump-like grain boundary motion, which results in rapid stress drop. The related study was focused on understanding the atomic rearrangements responsible for the nucleation of plasticity near different crystallographic surfaces of fcc and bcc metals under nanoindentation. We showed that a wedge-shaped region, which consists of atoms with a changed symmetry of the nearest environment, is formed under the indentation of the (001) surface of the copper crystallite. Stacking faults arise in the (111) atomic planes of the contact zone under the indentation of the (011) surface. Their escape on the side free surface leads to a step formation. Indentation of the (111) surface is accompanied by nucleation of partial dislocations in the contact zone subsequent formation of nanotwins. The results of the nanoindentation of bcc iron bicrystal show that the grain boundary prevents the propagation of structural defects nucleated in the contact zone into the neighboring grain.

Abstract:
Titanium alloys are gaining widespread acceptance in aerospace industry because of its high specific strength, corrosion resistance and good fatigue properties. Dovetails of the compressor blades, gears, splines etc. are some aerospace components that fail through premature fatigue crack initiation and propagation under the action of wear, fatigue and fretting fatigue. The fretting failure originates from the surface or near surface and leads to the damage of the components. Therefore the surface of components can be modified to improve the tribological performance by plasma nitriding which improve the titanium alloy by forming layer of hard TiN and Ti2N phases on surface. Plasma nitriding of titanium alloys has several advantages over gas and liquid nitriding methods where the phase formation and the depth of nitriding can be controlled. In this study Ti-6Al-4V alloy is taken as surrogate material for gas turbine application and its surface is modified by plasma nitriding at three different temperatures 500, 700 and 800 °C with N2:H2 ratio of 4:1 at 5 mbar pressure for 5 hrs. It is observed from XRD that at 500 and 700 °C temperature, nucleation of ε-Ti2N and δ-TiN started and complete titanium nitride layer formed at 800 °C. Nucleation and growth mechanism was studied by surface and cross section SEM analysis. Nitride layer of around 0.5 μm with ε-Ti2N and around 2 μm thick of both ε-Ti2N and δ-TiN phases were formed at 700 and 800 °C respectively. It is observed that the surface roughness increases with increasing the temperature for plasma nitriding. Vickers microhardness (HV0.1) is observed to be increased from 393.7 HV to 1016.4 HV by plasma nitriding at 800 °C.

Abstract:
Bubble departure frequency and active nucleation site density are two main factors that affect the nucleate boiling heat transfer. The potential enhancement of boiling heat transfer can be accomplished by surface modification. This treatment can be realized with changing parameters such as porosity, tilting angle and cavity radius. In this study, effects of different nanostructured Aluminum-Alloy (Al-Alloy) 2024 sheets on subcooled boiling heat transfer are investigated. A simple and environmentally friendly technique is used in order to produce these plates that are immersed into boiling deionized water for 20, 60 and 120 minutes. To examine boiling heat transfer characteristics, nanostructured plates are placed inside a rectangular channel. The channel is heated through four cartridge heaters connected to a DC power supply while deionized water is pumped inside using a micro gear pump at constant mass fluxes of 50 kg/m2s, 75 kg/m2s and 125 kg/m2s. It was found that an increase in nano-structure height leads to higher boiling heat transfer coefficients. Furthermore, a high speed camera system was used to investigate flow patterns in the microchannel. Visualization results indicated that bubbles movde faster the nano-structure height increased.

Full text
Abstract:
Due to the limitation of available experimental data for thermal conductivity of lead free solder and Intermetallic Compound (IMC) materials, the Wiedemann-Franz-Lorenz (WFL) relation is presented in this paper as a possible solution to predict thermal conductivity with known electrical conductivity. The method is based upon the fact that heat and electrical transport both involve the free electrons. The thermal and electrical conductivities of Cu, Ni, Sn, and different Sn rich lead free solder and IMC materials are studied by employing the WFL relation. Generally, the analysis to the experimental data shows that the WFL relation is obeyed in both solder alloy and IMC materials especially matches close to the relation for Sn, with a positive deviation from the theoretical Lorenz number. Thus, with the available electrical conductivity data, the thermal conductivity of solder and IMC materials can be obtained based on the proper WFL relation, vice versa. With the reduction of size of electronic devices and solder interconnects, it has been observed experimentally that solders fail by crack nucleation and propagation near the interface of IMC and bulk solder. A coupled thermal-electrical finite element analysis is performed to study the behavior of lead free solder/IMC interconnects under different electrical current densities. The joule heating, temperature concentration and electrical current concentration effects with a crack propagating near the interface of solder and IMC are investigated numerically. Solder and IMC material properties predicted using the WFL relation are adopted in the computational model. The effects of different thermal and electrical conductivities of solder and IMC materials on interfacial crack tip temperature are analyzed in the present study. By applying the WFL relation, the amount of experiments required to determine the material properties for different lead free solder/IMC interconnects can be significantly reduced, which can lead to pronounced saving of time and cost.

Visualization test was conducted by designing and setting up a special experimental apparatus to investigate characteristics of thermal-hydraulic interaction between lead-alloy droplet and subcooled water in pool water tank. The violent boiling phenomena were observed by a high-speed camera and local transient pressure was measured by high frequency piezo pressure transducer. The results showed that violent boiling mainly occurred when interface temperature between droplet and water was higher than homogenous nucleation temperature of water and subcooling temperature of water was higher than 40K. A violent boiling model for lead-alloy droplet/water interaction was proposed. In the model, partial contact of lead-alloy droplet with water caused by vapor film instability was taken into account to simulate fragmentation due to rapid evaporation.

Abstract:
Abstract An experimental study of shear band formation in cutting of metals is made using a low melting point Bi-based alloy as a model material system. High-speed imaging is used to capture the transition in the plastic flow, from laminar to shear banded flow, as a function of cutting speed. The dynamics of shear band nucleation is captured in situ and temporal evolution of localized plastic flow during shear band growth is quantitatively analyzed using an image correlation method, particle image velocimetry (PIV). The observations show that shear band nucleation is governed by a critical shear stress criterion, and accompanied by a large drop in the flow viscosity by several orders of magnitude, analogous to the phenomenon of yielding in yield-stress (Bingham) fluids. Likewise, the displacement field around a freshly nucleated shear band evolves in a manner resembling the boundary layer formation in planar flow of a Bingham fluid with a very small viscosity. Surprisingly, temperature has little influence on shear band nucleation or growth.

Full text
Abstract:
Following solidification, an aluminum alloy microstructure is highly segregated. The microstructure consists of cored dendrites with various soluble and insoluble phases present in the dendritic regions. The solidification rate has a marked effect on the amount of coring that an alloy experiences. Understanding the effects of the solidification rate is important in explaining differences in microstructures. Subsequent heat treatments are performed to homogenize the microstructure. The microstructure evolution after each processing step is dependent upon the previous microstructures. The variation in local chemical composition may promote or hinder precipitation of new phases. A large volume fraction of coarse insoluble phases can lead to the occurrence of recrystallized grains via particle stimulated nucleation, while inhomogeneous solute distribution can lead to the precipitation of an uneven distribution of dispersoid phases. The effect of solidification rate and subsequent thermal treatments on the microstructure of an Al-4Cu alloy will be investigated and experimental and numerical results will be presented.

Full text
Abstract:
A novel framework and integration scheme has been developed to implement a secant-based homogenization theory for particle-reinforced plasticity into an existing damage-based constitutive model, the well known Gurson-Tvergaard (GT) model. In this approach, the material is treated as a three-phase composite composed of voids and particles embedded in a ductile matrix. Two successive homogenization theories (damage- and particle-based) are then applied to determine the macro-mechanical response of the material as well as the average stress state within the constituents as a function of the particle shape, composition, and volume fraction. By identifying the stress state within the particles and the matrix, void nucleation can be accurately represented and the void growth and coalescence models are improved through knowledge of the stress state within the matrix. The performance of the coupled model is evaluated using a model aluminum alloy. A parametric study is performed to elucidate the influence of the second-phase particles and their shape on damage evolution and ductile fracture.

Abstract:
Abstract Precipitation strengthening of alloys by the formation of secondary particles (precipitates) in the matrix is one of the techniques used for increasing the mechanical strength of metals. Understanding the precipitation kinetics such as nucleation, growth, and coarsening of these precipitates is critical for evaluating their hardening effects and improving the yield strength of the alloy during heat treatment. To optimize the heat treatment strategy and accelerate alloy design, predicting precipitate hardening effects via numerical methods is a promising complement to trial-and-error-based experiments and the physics-based phase-field method stands out with the significant potential to accurately predict the precipitate morphology and kinetics. In this study, we present a phase-field model that captures the nucleation, growth, and coarsening kinetics of precipitates during isothermal heat treatment conditions. Thermodynamic data, diffusion coefficients, and misfit strain data from experimental or lower length-scale calculations are used as input parameters for the phase-field model. Classical nucleation theory is implemented to capture the nucleation kinetics. As a case study, we apply the model to investigate γ″ precipitation kinetics in Inconel 625. The simulated mean particle length, aspect ratio, and volume fraction evolution are in agreement with experimental data for simulations at 600 °C and 650 °C during isothermal heat treatment. Utilizing the meso-scale results from the phase-field simulations as input parameters to a macro-scale coherency strengthening model, the evolution of the yield strength during heat treatment was predicted. In a broader context, we believe the current study can provide practical guidance for applying the phase-field approach as a link in the multiscale modeling of material properties.

Abstract:
In this study, we employed pressurized creep tubes to investigate the biaxial thermal creep behavior of Inconel 617 (Alloy 617) and Haynes 230 (Alloy 230). Both alloys have been considered to be the primary candidate structural materials for very high temperature reactors (VHTRs) due to their exceptional high-temperature mechanical properties. The current creep experiments were conducted at 900°C for the effective stress range of 15–35 MPa. For both alloys, complete creep strain development with primary, secondary, and tertiary regimes were observed in all studied conditions. The tertiary creep was found to be dominant in the entire creep lives of both alloys. With increasing applied creep stress, the fraction of the secondary creep regime decreases. The nucleation, diffusion, and coarsening of creep voids and carbides on grain boundaries was found to be the main reason for the limited secondary regime, and was also found to be the major cause of creep fracture. The creep curves computed using the adjusted creep equation of the form ε = Aσ cosh−1(1 + rt) + Pσntm agree well with the experimental results for both alloys at the temperatures of 850–950°C.

Abstract:
A model of the “theatre of director” (MTD) links dependence of developed boiling HTC only on two external parameters (heat flux and average effective radius of active nucleation sites) to short duration of each action of cooling mechanisms. According multifactoring concept (MFC) significant prolongation of the actions of cooling mechanisms leads to transition to specific regimes with dependence on increased number of factors (duration-dependent multifactoring (DDM)). Splitting of developed boiling heat transfer curve into several curves, depending on sublooling of bulk liquid, direction of gravity field and thermal parameters of heating surface, has been fixed through experimental study of DDM of pool boiling heat transfer on downward-facing horizontal heating surface. Interpretation and qualitative analysis of received experimental data on HTC and video-films of characteristic boiling regimes allow to arriving at the conclusion about applicability of unified consistent research framework MTD-MFC in terms of description of diversity of boiling heat transfer curves.
