This study investigates the very-high-cycle fatigue (VHCF) behavior at elevated temperature (650 °C) of the Inconel 718 alloy fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM). The results are compared with those of the wrought alloy. Large columnar grain with a cellular structure in the grain interior and Laves/δ phases precipitated along the grain boundaries were exhibited in the SLM alloy, while fine equiaxed grains were present in the wrought alloy. The elevated temperature had a minor effect on the fatigue resistance in the regime below 108 cycles for the SLM alloy but significantly reduced the fatigue strength in the VHCF regime above 108 cycles. Both the SLM and wrought specimens exhibited similar fatigue resistance in the fatigue life regime of fewer than 107–108 cycles at elevated temperature, and the surface initiation mechanism was dominant in both alloys. In a VHCF regime above 107–108 cycles at elevated temperature, the wrought material exhibited slightly better fatigue resistance than the SLM alloy. All fatigue cracks are initiated from the internal defects or the microstructure discontinuities. The precipitation of Laves and δ phases is examined after fatigue tests at high temperatures, and the effect of microstructure on the formation and the propagation of the microstructural small cracks is also discussed.

ABSTRACTThe atomistic processes and stress-strain-curves during uniaxial tensile deformation of a single α-Fe nanocrystal have been studied with the molecular static method. Periodic boundary conditions are imposed along one direction perpendicular to the tensile axis to model plane strain conditions. The effects of the model sizes in plane, boundary conditions and crystal orientations on the stress-strain curves are systematically analyzed. Various deformation evidences such as dislocation movement, dislocation piling up and twinning are clearly observed. The deformation and fracture characteristics of a-Fe and their dependencies on the boundary conditions are investigated.

Wrinkling is generally induced because of metal instability and considered as an undesirable defect in sheet metal forming processes. Wrinkling leads to severe influence on functional requirements and aesthetic appeal of final component. Thus, the present research is mainly dedicated on the experimental and numerical analysis for wrinkling behavior prediction of Inconel 718 alloy at elevated temperature conditions. Initially, Yoshida buckling tests (YBT) have been conducted to investigate wrinkling tendencies of Inconel 718 alloy from room temperature (RT) to 600°C by an interval of 200°C. Subsequently, Finite Element (FE) analysis of YBT has been performed to analyze post buckling behavior. Critical strain values at onset of wrinkling are determined and strain based wrinkling limit curves (ε-WLCs) are plotted at different temperatures. In-plane principal strains are transferred to effective plastic strain (EPS) versus triaxiality (η) space to differentiate the transformation between safe and wrinkling instability. Finally, complete forming behavior of alloy is represented by means of fracture, forming, and wrinkling limit curves. The gap between forming and wrinkling limit curves at elevated temperature is ∼1.5 times higher than that at room temperature.

Micron-sized powders of an Al-7Cr-1Fe alloy were prepared by the technique of Gas Atomization Reaction Synthesis (GARS) at the Ames Laboratory (Ames, Iowa, USA). A pre-alloyed stock of the aluminum alloy was melted and atomized in an inert environment. A mixture of micron-sized and nano-sized powder particles was consolidated in a vacuum environment using the technique of plasma pressure compaction (P2CTM). The powders were initially pulsed at 150oC for 10 minutes and subsequently consolidated at 550oC under a pressure of 40 MPa for 10 minutes. In this paper, the tensile deformation and fracture characteristics of the aluminum alloy are highlighted at two different test temperatures. An attempt is made to elucidate the microscopic mechanisms governing tensile response and fracture in light of the competing and mutually interactive influences of intrinsic microstructural features, deformation characteristics of the constituents of the material, and test temperature.
