One of the options being considered for the disposal of radioactive waste is deep burial in crystalline rocks such as granite. It is generally recognised that in such rocks groundwater flows mainly through the fracture networks so that these will be the “highways” for the return of radionuclides to the biosphere. The main factors retarding the radionuclide transport have been considered to be the slow water movement in the fissures over the long distances involved together with sorption both in man-made barriers surrounding the waste, and onto rock surfaces and degradation products in the fissures.

A tool steel type SKD11 punch was plasma carburized at 673 K for 14.4 ks at 70 Pa to make carbon supersaturation. This carburized SKD11 punch was employed for upsetting the pure titanium wire with the diameter of 1.00 mm up to the reduction of thickness by 70% in a single shot. Its contact interface to titanium work was analyzed to describe the anti-galling behavior in this forging. Little trace of titanium proved that the galling process was suppressed by the in situ solid lubrication. The isolated free carbon agglomerates are wrought as a solid lubricant to sustain the galling-free forging process. This anti-galling upsetting reduced the residual strains in the forged wires. A long titanium wire with a length of 45 mm was incrementally upset to yield the titanium ribbon with a thickness of 0.3 mm, the width of 2.3 mm, and the length of 50 mm. The grain size of original pure titanium was much reduced to 2 μm on average. A micro-pillared microtexture was imprinted onto this forged titanium ribbon.

Measurement of residual strains by neutron diffraction of linear friction welded Inconel® 718 (IN 718) superalloy acquired from a mid-service aero-engine disk was undertaken in this study. Residual strain and stress throughout the various weld regions including the heat affected zone (HAZ), thermomechanical affected zone (TMAZ) and dynamically recrystallized zone (DRX) were characterized. The residual stresses were observed to increase from the base material to the weld interface, with a peak stress at the weld interface in all orthogonal directions. The trends for residual stress across the weld are in agreement with other work published in literature for solid state welding of aerospace alloys, where high residual stresses were commonly reported at the weld interface.

This paper presents microstructural, hardness and residual strain information for solid-state welds in creep-resistant Cr-Mo steel, made using the new local damage repair technique offered by friction taper stud welding (FTSW). The technique is suitable for making single welds to repair, for example, localised creep damage but can also be extended to deal with planar defects through the use of overlapping welds. Neutron diffraction was used to measure residual strains at a number of positions along a series of 5 overlapping FTS welds.

ABSTRACTInvestigation of strongly distorted crystal structures caused by dislocations, stacking-faults etc. in both plastically deformed f.c.c. and b.c.c. metallic materials was performed by the analysis of the neutron diffraction line broadening. Measurements were realized by means of the high resolution triple-axis neutron diffractometer equipped by bent Si perfect crystals as monochromator and analyzer at the NPI Řež. The substructure parameters obtained in this manner are in good agreement with the results of X-ray diffraction analysis.
