ABSTRACTFracture tests have been carried out on micro-sized specimens prepared from a fully lamellar γ-TiAl based alloy thin foil. Micro cantilever beam type specimens with dimensions = 50 × 10 × 20 μm were prepared from one lamellar colony of the thin foil by focused ion beam machining. Notches with a width of 0.5 μm and a depth of 10 μm were also introduced into the micro-sized specimens by focused ion beam machining. Notch directions were introduced into samples in order to select the trans- and inter-lamellar directions, respectively. Fracture tests were carried out using a mechanical testing machine for micro-sized specimens. Fracture tests for the micro-sized specimens were performed successfully, showing the fracture behaviour to be dependent upon the notch orientation. The fracture toughness of specimens with a notch direction perpendicular to the lamellar direction was 4.7 – 6.9 MPam1/2, while that with a notch direction in the inter-lamellar direction was 1.4 – 2.7 MPm1/2. This indicates that the orientation of the lamellar microstructure greatly affects the fracture properties of micro-sized components prepared from fully lamellar γ-TiAl based alloy thin foils. It is required to consider the results obtained in this investigation when designing actual micro scale structures using TiAl thin foils.

In this work we studied the fabrication of a monolithic bimaterial micro-cantilever resonant IR sensor with on-chip drive circuits. The effects of high temperature process and stress induced performance degradation were investigated. The post-CMOS MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) fabrication process of this IR sensor is the focus of this paper, starting from theoretical analysis and simulation, and then moving to experimental verification. The capacitive cantilever structure was fabricated by surface micromachining method, and drive circuits were prepared by standard CMOS process. While the stress introduced by MEMS films, such as the tensile silicon nitride which works as a contact etch stopper layer for MOSFETs and releasing stop layer for the MEMS structure, increases the electron mobility of NMOS, PMOS hole mobility decreases. Moreover, the NMOS threshold voltage (Vth) shifts, and transconductance (Gm) degrades. An additional step of selective removing silicon nitride capping layer and polysilicon layer upon IC area were inserted into the standard CMOS process to lower the stress in MOSFET channel regions. Selective removing silicon nitride and polysilicon before annealing can void 77% Vth shift and 86% Gm loss.

AbstractDuctile failure of polymeric samples weakened by circular arc cracks is studied theoretically and experimentally in this research. Various arrangements of cracks with different arc angles are considered in the specimens such that crack tips experienced the mixed mode I/II loading conditions. Fracture tests are conducted on the multi-cracked specimens and their fracture loads are achieved. To provide the results, the equivalent material concept (EMC) is used in conjunction of dislocation method and a brittle fracture criterion such that there is no necessity for performing complex and time-consuming elastic-plastic damage analyses. Theoretical and experimental stress intensity factors are computed and compared with each other by employing the fracture curves which demonstrate the appropriate efficiency of proposed method to predict the tests results.

Barrier Coating

The increased demand for high performance gas turbine engines has resulted in a continuous search for new base materials and coatings. With the significant developments in nickel-based superalloys, the quest for developments related to thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems is increasing rapidly and is considered a key area of research. Of key importance are the processing routes that can provide the required coating properties when applied on engine components with complex shapes, such as turbine vanes, blades, etc. Despite significant research and development in the coating systems, the scope of electrodeposition as a potential alternative to the conventional methods of producing bond coats has only been realised to a limited extent. Additionally, their effectiveness in prolonging the alloys’ lifetime is not well understood. This review summarises the work on electrodeposition as a coating development method for application in high temperature alloys for gas turbine engines and discusses the progress in the coatings that combine electrodeposition and other processes to achieve desired bond coats. The overall aim of this review is to emphasise the role of electrodeposition as a potential cost-effective alternative to produce bond coats. Besides, the developments in the electrodeposition of aluminium from ionic liquids for potential applications in gas turbines and the nuclear sector, as well as cost considerations and future challenges, are reviewed with the crucial raw materials’ current and future savings scenarios in mind.

This paper reports the analysis of acoustic emission signals captured during three-point bending fracture tests of concrete specimens with different mixture composition. Acoustic emission is an experimental tool well suited for monitoring fracture processes in material. The typical acoustic emission patterns were identified in the acoustic emission records for three different concrete mixtures to further describe the under-the-stress behaviour and failure development. An understanding of microstructure–performance relationships is the key to true understanding of material behaviour. The acoustic emission results are accompanied by fracture parameters determined via evaluation of load versus deflection diagrams recorded during three-point bending fracture tests.
