Abstract Metals with a bimodal grain size distribution have been found to have both high strength and good ductility. However, the coordinated deformation mechanisms underneath the ultrafine-grains (UFGs) and coarse grains (CGs) still remain undiscovered yet. In present work, a bimodal Cu with 80% volume fraction of recrystallized micro-grains was prepared by the annealing of equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) processed ultrafine grained Cu at 473 K for 40 min. The bimodal Cu has an optimal strength-ductility combination (yield strength of 220 MPa and ductility of 34%), a larger shear fracture angle of 83∘ and a larger area reduction of 78% compared with the as-ECAPed UFG Cu (yield strength of 410 MPa, ductility of 16%, shear fracture angle of 70∘, area reduction of 69%). Grain refinement of recrystallized micro-grains and detwinning of annealing growth twins were observed in the fractured bimodal Cu tensile specimen. The underlying deformation mechanisms for grain refinement and detwinning were analyzed and discussed.

A comparative study of the mechanical properties, fracture mechanisms and hydrogen embrittlement peculiarities was carried out using the specimens of austenitic CrNi steel produced by two different methods: wire-feed electron beam additive manufacturing and conventional casting followed by solid-solution treatment. Hydrogen-induced reduction of ductility and the increase in the yield strength are observed in steel specimens produced by both methods. Despite hydrogen embrittlement index is comparable in them, the increase in the yield strength after hydrogen-charging is different: 25 MPa for cast steel and 175 MPa for additively manufactured steel. This difference is associated with the peculiarities of phase composition and phase distribution in steels produced by different methods.

Bulky sample was made by using TIG wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) technology, in which Ф1.6 mm filler wire of in-situ TiB2/Al-Si composites was selected as deposition metal, following by T6 heat treatment. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the bulky sample before and after heat treatment were analyzed. Experimental results showed that the texture of the original samples parallel to the weld direction and perpendicular to the weld direction was similar consisting of columnar dendrites and equiaxed crystals. After T6 heat treatment, the hardness of the sample was increased to 115.85 HV from 62.83 HV, the yield strength of the sample was 273.33 MPa, the average tensile strength was 347.33 MPa, and the average elongation after fracture was 7.96%. Although pore defects existed in the fracture, yet the fracture of the sample was ductile fracture.

Mechanical properties and microstructure of extruded AZ91(-Ca) alloys have been studied in this paper. The results showed that Ca has no significant effect on reducing grain size of the extruded AZ91 alloy. The ambient temperature tensile tests showed that the ultimate and yield strength of extruded AZ91 alloy decreased by addition of Ca. At elevated temperature, Ca addition improves the yield strength of both AZ91 alloy. The variations in microstructure and mechanical properties of the AZ91 alloy are also discussed in terms of the effects of Ca on grain refinement and formation of constituent phases.

Quenching media, time, temperature are prime factors towards the enhancement of grain refinement structure and mechanical properties in metals. The present study reports the usage of novel quenching media that is cow urine to improve the mechanical properties that is tensile strength, yield strength and hardness of Al 2585 alloy. The ingredients such as (sodium, nitrogen, sulphur, Vitamin A, B, C, D, E, minerals, manganese, iron, silicon, chlorine, magnesium etc.,) present in cow urine are homogenously which help to improve micro structure and mechanical properties of Al alloy 2585. From the study, it is revealed that maximum tensile strength and yield strength is improved and grain refinement is exhibited at 50% blend. Likewise maximum hardness at 80% blends.

AbstractAdditive manufacturing with steel opens up new possibilities for the construction sector. Especially direct energy deposition processes like DED-arc, also known as wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM), is capable of manufacturing large structures with a high degree of geometric freedom, which makes the process suitable for the manufacturing of force flow-optimized steel nodes and spaceframes. By the use of high strength steel, the manufacturing times can be reduced since less material needs to be deposited. To keep the advantages of the high strength steel, the effect of thermal cycling during WAAM needs to be understood, since it influences the phase transformation, the resulting microstructure, and hence the mechanical properties of the material. In this study, the influences of energy input, interpass temperature, and cooling rate were investigated by welding thin walled samples. From each sample, microsections were analyzed, and tensile test and Charpy-V specimens were extracted and tested. The specimens with an interpass temperature of 200 °C, low energy input and applied active cooling showed a tensile strength of ~ 860–900 MPa, a yield strength of 700–780 MPa, and an elongation at fracture between 17 and 22%. The results showed the formation of martensite for specimens with high interpass temperatures which led to low yield and high tensile strengths (Rp0.2 = 520–590 MPa, Rm = 780–940 MPa) for the specimens without active cooling. At low interpass temperatures, the increase of the energy input led to a decrease of the tensile and the yield strength while the elongation at fracture as well as the Charpy impact energy increased. The formation of upper bainite due to the higher energy input can be avoided by accelerated cooling while martensite caused by high interpass temperatures need to be counteracted by heat treatment.
