A superalloy is an alloy developed for elevated temperature service, where relatively severe mechanical stressing is encountered, and where high surface stability is frequently required. High temperature deformation of Ni-base superalloys is very important since the blades and discs of aero engine turbine, because need to work at elevated temperature for an expected long period. The nickel-base alloy Inconel 718 has being investigated because it is one of the most widely used superalloys. The objective of this work was to evaluate the creep behavior of the Inconel 718 focusing on the determination of the experimental parameters related to the primary and secondary creep states. Constant load creep tests were conducted with at 650, 675 and 700°C and the range of stress was from 625 to 814 MPa to according to ASTM E139 standard. The relation between primary creep time and steady-state creep rate, obeyed the equation for both atmospherics conditions at 650, 675 and 700°C. The microstructural characterization employing the technique of scanning electron microscopy has been a valuable tool for understanding the mechanisms of creep.

Superalloys are used primarily in aerospace applications. These applications require a material with high mechanical strength, good resistance to fatigue and creep, good corrosion resistance and ability to operate continuously at elevated temperatures. These alloys were developed for elevated temperature service, where relatively severe mechanical stressing is encountered, and where high surface stability is frequently required. Inconel 718 has being investigated because it is one of the most widely used superalloys. Constant load creep tests were conducted on a standard creep machine at 600 and 700°C and stress levels of 300 MPa. Sets of curves and experimental parameters for the primary, secondary and tertiary regions, as a function of stress and temperature applied were obtained. The ductility, the creep rate and lifetime was evaluated.

AbstractHigh-temperature constant-force indentation creep tests of 200 seconds duration were performed on an annealed gold specimen at 473K to 773K, to investigate the dependence of the micro-/nano-indentation deformation kinetics upon indentation stress, temperature and time. The indent stress displayed a clear indentation size effect at 473 K. An analysis of the measured indentation creep rate, and its dependence upon temperature and stress, indicate that the strength of the deformation rate limiting obstacles increases with temperature. This is consistent with the expected temperature dependent evolution of the dislocation cell structure whose boundaries become the primary obstacles to dislocation glide.

Textures developed during hot rolling process may affect the high temperature deformation behaviors of Ti alloys, but their relation has not been well understood or quantitatively analyzed yet. A series of load relaxation and creep tests for hot rolled Ti-6Al-4V alloy has been conducted in this work to clarify the effect of textures on the deformation behaviors of the alloy under 700 °C and the result was analyzed by using an internal variables approach. The internal strength σ* was found to vary significantly by the textures, but not by the temperature change, while the texture effect was found to decrease at higher temperatures.

Creep tests of ultra-high-purity (99.999%) Al and Al-22.2, 53.6, 101 at.ppm Fe solid solution alloys were conducted at 773 K in the stress range of 2-6 MPa in order to investigate effect of solute Fe on high temperature deformation of Al. Creep resistance was enhanced by addition of Fe in solid solution. The stress exponents of the samples exhibited values of about 5, which indicate that climb-controlled dislocation creep was dominant deformation mechanism. It could be suggested that Fe atoms segregating in dislocations due to the strong interaction between solute Fe atoms and the dislocation enhanced the creep resistance.

Superplastic forming has been known for the ideal process for manufacturing complex parts. Also, diffusion bonding can give a higher design flexibility, which allows a better performance with a lower overall manufacturing cost. Fine grained INCONEL 718 alloy sheet has been known to show superplastic behavior with the combination of high strength and corrosion resistance at the elevated temperatures. In the present study, high temperature deformation characteristic of INCONEL 718 sheet with 15m was investigated firstly. Then, blow forming process with cylindrical cavity was tried. Also, best diffusion brazing and bonding condition was tried to be defined in terms of temperature, pressure and time. Bonding strength was characterized by using lap shear type test and interface observation. Characteristics of deformation and diffusion bonding at high temperature were influenced greatly with grain size while Nb precipitate also played an important role.

In this paper, the four-roll plate bending process of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel at elevated temperature is investigated by numerical simulation. This 3-D simulation is finished by using the elastic-plastic dynamic explicit finite element method (FEM) under the ANSYS/LS-DYNA environment. The strain softening behavior of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel at elevated temperature is presented and discussed. The stress-strain relationship of the steel plate is modeled using a piecewise linear material model, with the stress-strain curve obtained through tensile tests. The plate bending process with a plate thickness of 150 mm is investigated. The amount and position of maximum plastic deformation are analyzed. The present study provides an important basis for the optimization of bending parameters and further investigation of the effect of high-temperature deformation on the resistance to hydrogen attack of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel.

ABSTRACTThe creep behavior of single crystals of γ′ and γ alloys were investigated and compared to the response of two phase superalloys tested previously. High temperature deformation in the γ alloys was characteristic of a climb controlled mechanism, whereas the γ′ based materials exhibited glide controlled creep behavior. The superalloys were much more creep resistant than their constituent phases, which indicates the importance of the γ-γ′ interface as a barrier for dislocation motion during creep.

An alumina-based ceramic codispersed with 15 vol% zirconia and 15 vol% mullite (AZM) was synthesized by reactive processing, and the creep behavior was compared to alumina with 30 vol% zirconia (AZ). Constant stress compressive creep behavior for AZM exhibited a stress exponent of 2 and an activation energy of 770 KJ/mol, while a similar stress exponent but lower activation energy of 660 KJ/mol was found for AZ. The strain rate of AZM, however, was more than twice that of the AZ under the same deformation conditions, indicating a better potential for superplastic shape forming.
