Multi-modal Dataset of a Polycrystalline Metallic Material: 3D Microstructure and Deformation Fields
The development of high-fidelity mechanical property prediction models for the design of polycrystalline materials relies on large volumes of microstructural feature data. Concurrently, at these same scales, the deformation fields that develop during mechanical loading can be highly heterogeneous. Spatially correlated measurements of 3D microstructure and the ensuing deformation fields at the micro-scale would provide highly valuable insight into the relationship between microstructure and macroscopic mechanical response. They would also provide direct validation for numerical simulations that can guide and speed up the design of new materials and microstructures. However, to date, such data have been rare. Here, a one-of-a-kind, multi-modal dataset is presented that combines recent state-of-the-art experimental developments in 3D tomography and high-resolution deformation field measurements.

Using real-time data analysis to conduct next-generation synchrotron fatigue studies
Next-generation experimental techniques, like high energy X-ray diffraction microscopy (HEDM), usher in new opportunities to collect the grain-scale data necessary for understanding the evolving processes that drive fatigue failure. In this study, we present a framework for monitoring the evolution of a deforming polycrystal, in real-time, by applying principal component analysis (PCA) to raw X-ray diffraction image data. We applied this framework to inform in-situ HEDM measurements of a cyclically loaded Inconel-718 superalloy. Further, we discovered correlations between PCA of the diffraction data and the physical processes in the polycrystal. Lastly, we discuss extending this framework in future HEDM fatigue studies.
