Optimal Geometry for Focused Ion Beam-Milled Samples for Direct-Pull Micro-Tensile Testing Performed In Situ in a Scanning Electron Microscope

A thorough procedure was developed to efficiently manufacture dogbone samples using focused ion beam (FIB) milling for micro-tensile testing. A Bruker PI 89 PicoIndenter, Billerica, MA, USA, was used as a case study, although the analysis and results are applicable to other micro-mechanical testing systems capable of mounting a standard, Ø12.7 mm × Ø3.2 mm pin, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) pin stub (Ted Pella, Redding, CA, USA). Nine dogbones were made from an Fe-45Cu alloy additively manufactured using powder-fed laser-directed energy deposition (DED-LB). Testing showed that fracture was confined to the gauge section for all dogbones and that the fracture mode, ductile vs. brittle, was entirely dependent on the grain orientation relative to the loading direction. The analysis showed that the measured plastic strain to failure can vary from >11% (optimal geometry) to <1% (non-optimal geometry) in micro-tensile testing of high-tensile-strength (>1 GPa) metallic materials. Subsequently, a finite element analysis (FEA) was conducted to identify the improved dogbone geometries. A total of ten thousand dogbone geometries were tested, and their dimensions were defined by a set of four adjustable parameters (corner radius, load surface angle, load surface length, and dogbone head length). The gauge width and gauge length were fixed to 4 µm and 10 µm, respectively. Three-dimensional surface plots of the stress concentration as a function of two parameters were used to identify the optimal ranges of parameter values. The addition of maximum width and length constraints, measuring 25 µm and 30 µm, respectively, allowed us to identify an optimal geometry at load surface angles of 30° and 45°. Their respective dimensions (corner radius, load surface length, and dogbone head length) are, in µm, 12, 6, and 7 and 10, 7, and 7. Testing these two optimal geometries with a range of gauge lengths from 4 to 20 µm showed that smaller gauge lengths only slightly reduced the detrimental stress concentration outside the gauge section. However, smaller gauge lengths will notably improve the FIB surface polishing step as tapering is reduced with smaller dogbone lengths.

Modeling slip system strength evolution in Ti-7Al informed by in-situ grain stress measurements

In this work, far-field high-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy is used to asses the evolution of slip system strengths in hexagonal close-packed (HCP) Ti-7Al during tensile deformation in-situ. The following HCP slip system families are considered: basal $\langle$a$\rangle$, prismatic $\langle$a$\rangle$, pyramidal$\langle$a$\rangle$, and first-order pyramidal $\langle$c + a$\rangle$. A 1 mm length of the specimen's gauge section, marked with fiducials and comprised of an aggregate of over 500 grains, is tracked during continuous deformation. The response of each slip system family is quantified using ‘slip system strength curves’ that are calculated from the average stress tensors of each grain over the applied deformation history. These curves, which plot the average resolved shear stress for each slip system family versus macroscopic strain, represent a mesoscopic characterization of the aggregate response. A short time-scale transient softening is observed in the basal $\langle$a$\rangle$, prismatic $\langle$a$\rangle$, and pyramidal $\langle$a$\rangle$ slip systems, while a long time-scale transient hardening is observed in the pyramidal $\langle$c + a$\rangle$ slip systems. These results are used to develop a slip system strength model as part of an elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model for the single crystal behavior. A suite of finite element simulations is performed on a virtual polycrystal to demonstrate the relative effects of the different parameters in the slip system strength model. The model is shown to accurately capture the macroscopic stress-strain response using parameters that are chosen to capture the mesoscopic slip system responses.

Dynamic phase transformations in additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V during thermo-mechanical gyrations

A complex interaction of process parameters, geometry and scan strategies in Additive Manufacturing (AM), can bring about spatial and temporal transients, i.e., Σ T ( x, y, z, time ), within a part. Published literature focusses on fluctuating thermal cycles on the microstructure evolution. However, the microstructural variations have not been correlated to dynamic flow behavior due to the macro- and micro-scale phenomena, i.e., accumulated plastic strains brought about by large thermal gradients, transformational strains and crystallographic misfit strains. Therefore, here we studied the mechanical response of Ti6Al4V alloys produced by AM under externally imposed controlled thermo-mechanical reversals in a Gleeble® thermo-mechanical simulator. The stress-strain behaviors were correlated to phase fractions, lattice strains, and also limited information on crystallographic texture using neutron diffraction techniques at the VULCAN Beamline at SNS, ORNL and also metallographic studies. The results are discussed and rationalized based on theories of static and dynamic phase transformations.

Critical Shear Stress for Erosion Under Laminar Jet Flow

Particle erosion is an important process in both natural and manmade environments. For example, in natural environments particle or sediment erosion rates determine the course of rivers, depth of streams, and fate of deltas. The interplay between erosion rates and flow patterns can have dramatic impact on shorelines. Where hydrodynamic jet flows or rip currents change direction, sediments may accumulate or disperse altering the shape of coastlines and the ecosystems and economies that rely on them. In man-made systems, jet flows may be used to mobilize particles from surfaces or within industrial scale mixing tanks. For example, in the nuclear industry, impinging jet mixers may be used to mobilize and suspend sludges at the bottom of waste tanks. In each of these examples, the Shields diagram is useful to determine the conditions under which erosion occurs. This diagram plots the scaled critical shear stress for erosion as a function of the particle size as embedded in particle Reynolds numbers, Archimedes numbers, or their equivalents. Although the data, that carries a large spread, is largely in agreement with mathematical models, for the smallest particles, model predictions diverge from each other and from experimental data. Indeed, there is substantial uncertainty about the Shields diagrams at relatively small particle sizes and flow rates. Here we evaluate critical shear stresses for erosion under laminar jet flow. To date critical shear stresses for erosion, as embodied in Shields diagrams, have largely been developed for turbulent flow both experimental and mathematically. However, curves on the Shields diagrams diverge among various models at lower particle Reynolds numbers. Indeed, how critical shear stresses for erosion develop under fully laminar jet flow conditions (not simply laminar boundary layers under turbulent flow) remains unclear. Here we address this gap, which is particularly important for mobilization of the smallest particles. We find the Shields parameter to be inversely proportional to the particle Reynolds numbers under laminar jet flow conditions similar to turbulent conditions.

Hopes Beyond PET Recycling: Environmentally Clean and Engineeringly Applicable

Disposal of plastics in the environment has become a core of anxiety in developing countries, while in the developed countries the focus has additionally been placed on design and manufacture of emerging products from plastic wastes—a somewhat vague yet promising horizon. Central to environmental concerns are poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) wastes, mainly from post-consumer bottles. Because of a considerable drop in molecular weight in the course of recycling, recycled PETs are not suitable for engineering uses. An efficient yet reasonably green synthesis route is employed here to convert PET wastes into polyurethane, and then carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was added at different levels to obtain nanocomposites with high mechanical properties. The effects of isocyanate (NCO)/hydroxyl (OH) molar ratio and CNTs content on the morphology, physical and mechanical properties were discussed. Chemical/physical crosslink density was calculated from initial slope of stress–strain curves, Mooney–Rivlin plots, strain-hardening modulus, rubbery-plateau storage modulus and swelling data. High tensile strength (300 MPa) and breaking elongation (160%) of polyurethane/CNTs nanocomposites born from PET wastes seemed promising. Microscopic analyses by AFM, SEM, and TEM gave useful information about distribution of CNTs in polyurethane. Lastly, structural changes were correlated to mechanical properties improvement.

A physiological signal derived from sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence quantifies crop physiological response to environmental stresses in the U.S. Corn Belt

Sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) measurements have shown unique potential for quantifying plant physiological stress. However, recent investigations found canopy structure and radiation largely control SIF, and physiological relevance of SIF remains yet to be fully understood. This study aims to evaluate whether the SIF-derived physiological signal improves quantification of crop responses to environmental stresses, by analyzing data at three different spatial scales within the U.S. Corn Belt, i.e. experiment plot, field, and regional scales, where ground-based portable, stationary and space-borne hyperspectral sensing systems are used, respectively. We found that, when controlling for variations in incoming radiation and canopy structure, crop SIF signals can be decomposed into non-physiological (i.e. canopy structure and radiation, 60% ~ 82%) and physiological information (i.e. physiological SIF yield, Φ F , 17% ~ 31%), which confirms the contribution of physiological variation to SIF. We further evaluated whether Φ F indicated plant responses under high-temperature and high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) stresses. The plot-scale data showed that Φ F responded to the proxy for physiological stress (partial correlation coefficient, r p = 0.40, p < 0.001) while non-physiological signals of SIF did not respond ( p > 0.1). The field-scale Φ F data showed water deficit stress from the comparison between irrigated and rainfed fields, and Φ F was positively correlated with canopy-scale stomatal conductance, a reliable indicator of plant physiological condition (correlation coefficient r = 0.60 and 0.56 for an irrigated and rainfed sites, respectively). The regional-scale data showed Φ F was more strongly correlated spatially with air temperature and VPD ( r = 0.23 and 0.39) than SIF ( r = 0.11 and 0.34) for the U.S. Corn Belt. The lines of evidence suggested that Φ F reflects crop physiological responses to environmental stresses with greater sensitivity to stress factors than SIF, and the stress quantification capability of Φ F is spatially scalable. Utilizing Φ F for physiological investigations will contribute to improve our understanding of vegetation responses to high-temperature and high-VPD stresses.

High-Temperature Tensile and Creep Test Results on Thin Wall Tube Specimens of ODS Alloys 14YWT and OFRAC

High-temperature tensile and strain rate jump (SRJ) creep tests were conducted on axial specimens fabricated from thin wall tubes of the oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys 14YWT and OFRAC. The dimensions of the 14YWT thin wall tube was 10.7 mm OD, 0.5 mm WT and 0.92 m and of the OFRAC thin wall tube was 8.5 mm OD + 0.5 mm WT and 1.78 m in length. The axial specimens fabricated from the thin wall tubes were based on a dual-gauge design with gauge dimensions of 4 mm long and 2 mm wide. The tensile tests were conducted in air at 800ºC, 900ºC and 1,000ºC and the SRJ creep tests were conducted in air at 800ºC. Two axial specimens were used in each tensile and SRJ creep tests. The results of the tensile tests showed much lower yield stress (YS) compared to ultimate tensile strength (UTS) indicative of large work hardening properties. The results showed the UTS of OFRAC was higher than that of 14YWT by ~35 MPa at 800ºC. At 900ºC, the UTS of OFRAC and 14YWT was similar at 900ºC and at 1000ºC, the UTS of 14YWT was higher than that of OFRAC by ~10 MPa. The ductility properties of OFRAC were greater than that of 14YWT with higher values of uniform elongation (UE) and total elongation (TE) at all tensile test temperatures. The creep properties of 14YWT and OFRAC were evaluated by the strain rate jump test method at 800ºC. The stress exponent (n) for creep was obtained from the SRJ test data by plotting the values of the log strain rate against the log stress, which is measured from the stress-strain curve generated during the SRJ test. The results showed the highest stress exponents of n = 19.8 and n = 35.0 were measured from the two SRJ tests on 14YWT. The stress exponent measured from one successful SRJ test on OFRAC was n = 13.3, which was lower than that of 14YWT. Nevertheless, these high values of stress exponent are consistent with ODS ferritic alloys such as 14YWT and OFRAC since they indicate dislocation-particle interactions are the dominant creep mechanism for specific ranges of temperature and stress. The results obtained from the tensile and SRJ creep tests conducted on axial specimens in this study indicate that 14YWT and OFRAC retain high strengths at temperatures up to 1,000ºC and good creep performance at 800ºC.

Soil microenvironmental variation drives below‐ground trait variation and interacts with macroclimate to structure above‐ground trait variation of arctic shrubs

Abstract Intraspecific trait variation can influence plant performance in different environments and may thereby determine the ability of individual plants to respond to climate change. However, our understanding of its patterns and environmental drivers across different spatial scales is incomplete, especially in understudied regions like the Arctic. To fill this knowledge gap, we examined above‐ground and below‐ground traits from three shrub taxa expanding across the tundra biome and evaluated their relationships with multiple microenvironmental and macroclimatic factors. The traits reflected plant size and structure (plant height, leaf area and root to shoot ratio), leaf economics (specific leaf area, nitrogen content), and root economics and collaboration with mycorrhizal fungi (specific root length, root tissue density, nitrogen content, and ectomycorrhizal colonisation intensity). We also measured leaf and root δ 15 N and leaf δ 13 C to characterise nitrogen source and acquisition pathways and plant water stress. Traits were measured in replicated plots ( N = 135) varying in soil microclimate, thaw depth and organic layer thickness established across five sites spanning a macroclimate gradient in northern Alaska. This hierarchical design allowed us to disentangle the independent and combined effects of fine‐scale and broad‐scale factors on intraspecific trait variation. We found substantial intraspecific variation at fine spatial scales for most traits and less variation along the macroclimate gradient and between shrub taxa. Consistent with these patterns, microenvironmental factors, mainly soil moisture and thaw depth, interacted with macroclimate, mainly climatic water deficit, to structure size‐structural and leaf trait variation. In contrast, most root traits responded additively to thaw depth and macroclimate. Synthesis . Our results demonstrate that above‐ground and below‐ground tundra shrub traits respond differently to microenvironmental and macroclimatic variation. These differing responses contribute to substantial trait variation at fine spatial scales and may decouple above‐ground and below‐ground trait responses to climate change.

Effect of Small Preliminary Deformation on the Evolution of Elastoplastic Waves of Shock Compression in Annealed VT1-0 Titanium

The evolution of an elastoplastic waves of shock compression in VT1-0 titanium in the as-annealed state and after preliminary compression is measured. A preliminary strain of 0.6% and the related increase in the dislocation density are found to change the deformation kinetics radically and to decrease the Hugoniot elastic limit. An increase in the preliminary strain from 0.6% to 5.2% only weakly changes the Hugoniot elastic limit and the compression rate in the plastic shock wave. The measurement results are used to plot the strain rate versus the stress at the initial stage of high-rate deformation, and the experimental results are interpreted in terms of dislocation dynamics.

Complete Status Report Documenting the Development of Friction Stir Welding for Producing a Butt Joint in Thin Wall Tubing of ODS Alloys

A challenging attempt using friction stir welding to produce a butt joint between two 1.0 mm thick plates of 14YWT was nearly successful. The modified tool pin mostly penetrated the thickness of the adjoined thin plate samples resulting in a small blunt notch on the bottom surface of the butt joint. A bend occurred in the thin plate sample due to formation of stresses from clamping the thin plate sample during FSW. The peak displacement of the bend occurred along the center line of the butt joint. The weld zone showed good microstructure mixing with some flashing mostly on the retreating side that suggested excess heat input by friction between the traveling and spinning tool pin and thin plates of 14YWT. Neutron diffraction experiments were performed on the bent sample of 14YWT to measure the residual stresses in the butt joint on the HB-2B beam line at the Neutron Residual Stress Facility at HFIR. However, the neutron scattering to background noise ratio was very low during data acquisition. Measurements of lattice strains were obtained in the rolling (RD) and normal (ND) directions but not in the extrusion direction (ED) of the thin plate sample. Unfortunately, the quality of the data was not sufficient for determining the residual stresses in the butt joint. From the previous neutron scattering experiments conducted on four hot rolled plates (R1, R2, R3 and R4) of 14YWT, the residual stresses were calculated from lattice strain data and plotted in 2-D color contour maps for ED, RD and ND. The results showed variations in the magnitude and spatial position of residual stresses in the microstructure of the four plates. The magnitude in residual stresses in ED and RD increased gradually with increasing rolling deformation for R1 (50%) to R2 (76%), followed by larger increases in R3 (89%) and R4 (95%). The maximum peaks in residual stresses for R4 was ~710-730 MPa in ED and RD. The residual stresses in ND were below ~300 MPa for each of the 4 rolled plates, with a maximum residual stress in R4 (95%) of ~400 MPa. These results indicated that significant residual stresses representing ~57% of the yield stress of 14YWT (SM13) had accumulated in the 14YWT plate after hot rolling to the 1 mm thickness, which was used in the FSW experiments. The microstructure analysis of the 1.0 mm thick plate of 14YWT containing the butt joint produced by FSW revealed significant changes in the grain structure and texture between the unaffected zone (UZ) of the rolled plate and the butt joint weld. In the UZ, the grains were severely elongated after 95% deformation and mainly possessed the {101} texture component in the ED. Two predominant grain misorientation angles were observed: one consisting of small misorientations of <5º between highly elongated grains and the other consisting of large misorientations of >15º in pockets of small grains that might have formed by dynamic recrystallization processes during rolling of the plate at 1000ºC. The morphology and texture of grains in the heat affected zone (HAZ) were similar to those in UZ, except the grains had coarsened due to excess heat input during FSZ. A population of pores formed and the grains both coarsened and changed to isotropic morphology in the microstructure of the butt joint on both the advancing and retreating sides. The texture of grains in both regions were randomly orientated between the 3 poles {001}, {101} and {111}. The main difference in texture of grains between the advancing side and retreating side was with the misorientation angles of neighboring grains. Most of the grains in the advancing side had misorientation angles of >5º indicating that these grains experienced recrystallization. On the retreating side, areas containing larger grains showed high misorientation angles of >15º compared to areas appearing as bands of grains with misorientation angles of <5º and between 5º-15º. Numerous small pockets of grains with low misorientation angles of <5º were distributed in the microstructure among the grains showing high misorientation angles of >15º. It was determined that the grains associated with low misorientation angles contained sub-grain structures, which was consistent with both recrystallization and recovery mechanisms for grains located on the retreating side of the butt joint. These results demonstrate the complex microstructure that evolves in the microstructure of 14YWT resulting from the input of high temperatures and severe deformations during FSW.

Development of creep resistant ferritic-martensitic steels for operation at 650°C

Creep resistant ferritic-martensitic steels capable of operating at 650°C have long been under development for electricity generation. This presentation will showcase the design and development of alloys CPJ-7 and JMP with approximately 420,000 h of in-house creep testing, the equivalent of ~50 years of cumulative creep tests. Approximately fifty different alloy compositions were manufactured as part of an ICME approach. CPJ-7 present superior creep properties compared to COST alloys for steam turbine and P91/92 for boiler applications. The prolonged creep life was attributed to slowing down the destabilization of fine precipitates at 650°C. The JMP steels were designed with higher Co for solid solution strengthening and increased W for matrix strength and stability. The creep life compared to CPJ-7 increased between 118 and 150% at 650°C depending on the stress. On a Larson-Miller plot, the performance of the JMP steels surpasses that of MARBN steel. Composition-microstructure-properties relationships will be discussed.

Constitutive Modeling for Hot Deformation Behavior of Al-5083 + SiC Composite

In the present research, isothermal hot deformation behavior of aluminum 5083 alloy + 15 (wt.%) SiC composite was obtained through compression test on INSTRON 8801 universal tensile testing machine (UTM) under a wide temperature range of 473-773 K and strain rate range of 0.01-10 s{sup −1}. The experimental true stress–strain data were employed to establish constitutive equations based on modified Johnson–Cook (JC) model and modified Zerilli–Armstrong (ZA) model to predict the hot flow behavior of the composite. The flow stress values obtained from these two models were plotted against the experimental flow curves to check the accuracy of these models. Suitability of the models was evaluated by comparing correlation coefficient (R), average absolute relative error and relative errors of prediction. The results show that the hot flow stresses of the present material depend on temperature and strain rate significantly. Both the models give good description of the hot deformation behavior of the composite. The prediction accuracy is found to be higher for modified ZA model compared to modified JC model, though the number of materials constants involved and time needed to evaluate them to establish the model are lower for modified JC model.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community responses to drought and nitrogen fertilization in switchgrass stands

Anthropogenic global change is increasing the severity and frequency of abiotic stresses such as drought that are likely to affect soil communities. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play important roles in many soil processes, so it is important to understand how drought affects AMF biodiversity. This is especially relevant in agricultural systems where crops rely on AMF associations for water and nutrient uptake, and where management decisions such as crop selection and fertilizer application may influence how the AMF community responds to drought. In this study, we examined the effects of reduced precipitation and nitrogen fertilization on AMF richness, community composition, and root and soil colonization in monocultures of two cultivars of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) grown for bioenergy feedstock. We conducted a two-year field experiment using rain-out shelters to manipulate precipitation in mature stands of switchgrass growing in a long-term nitrogen fertilization (0 or 56 kg N ha –1 ) experiment at the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station Long-Term Ecological Research site in Michigan, USA. We expected that AMF richness and colonization would decrease due to drought, as predicted by the stress exclusion hypothesis. Contrary to our expectations, we found that drought stress increased AMF species richness in fertilized plots by 15%; there was no effect of drought on AMF richness in unfertilized plots. Drought also significantly altered AMF community composition, primarily due to increases in Rhizophagus taxa abundance, and reduced AMF root colonization in switchgrass by 6%. We also found variation in AMF richness and colonization across switchgrass cultivars as well as sampling dates. Furthermore, the changes in AMF richness and composition that we observed in this study may have implications for perennial bioenergy feedstock selection and management as changes in AMF communities may feedback to affect host plants.

By using the thermoelastic potential of displacements and the Love biharmonic function, we determine the temperature, displacements, and stresses caused by a stationary heat source in a semiinfinite body whose boundary is rigidly, smoothly, or flexibly fastened either under the conditions of zero temperature kept on it or under the conditions of heat insulation. The plots of the dependences of axial, radial, circular, and tangential stresses on the boundary of the body on the distance between the heat source and this boundary are presented.
