Herein, we compared thermal desorption analysis (TDA) curves obtained by conducting experiments and simulations. In addition, we discussed the validation of our simulations and trapping sites of hydrogen atoms. In as-received F82H, when the samples contained solute atoms, grain boundaries, dislocations, and precipitates, the experimental curve corresponded to the simulated curve. In positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) measurements, di-vacancies were detected in the electron-irradiated F82H. When we changed the growth and the concentration of vacancy-type defects during temperature increase using the rate theory, the simulation results agreed with experiment results. In creep-ruptured Fe, only dislocations were detected by the PAL measurements. However, the existence of a type of defect, which was related to grain boundaries, must be assumed to fit the simulation curve to the experimental one. In the next step, the diffusion of hydrogen atoms on grain boundaries should be added to simulation program.

ABSTRACTThe effect of inhomogeneous nucleation and growth of cavities near grain boundaries illustrates the failure of the standard rate theory to describe the kinetics of phase transformations in irradiated materials under cascade damage conditions. The enhanced swelling observed near grain boundaries is believed to result from the competition between the diffusional growth of cavities and their shrinkage due to the interaction with mobile interstitial clusters. Swelling rates associated with the two processes behave in a radically different way as a function of the size of growing cavities. For a spatially homogeneous distribution of cavities this gives rise to the saturation of swelling in the limit of large irradiation doses.We investigate the evolution of the population of cavities nucleating and growing near a planar grain boundary. We show that a cavity growing near the boundary is able to reach a size that is substantially larger than the size of a cavity growing in the interior region of the grain. For a planar grain boundary the magnitude of swelling at maximum is found to be up to eight times higher than the magnitude of swelling in the grain interior.

Hydrogen storage in a metallic nanoparticle was simulated by classical molecular dynamics. Distribution of hydrogen atoms inside nanoparticle was investigated by changing length and energy parameters of metal– H bonds. Hydrogen atoms diffused into the particle and distributed homogeneously in case of weak metal– H bonds. In case of strong metal– H bonds, a hydrogen-rich surface layer was observed which suppresses the inward diffusion of hydrogen atoms. Structural modification of nanoparticle accompanied by grain boundary formation due to hydrogen loading was also observed. These variations in dynamical and structural features are considered to affect the hydrogen storage properties in nanoparticles.

The formation of the irregular γ′ precipitates in the nickel-based superalloy Waspaloy was investigated during the continuous cooling, which is relevant to the cooling rates and interrupted temperature. The morphology of the γ′ precipitates was observed to change from a dispersed sphere to the flower-like one with the decreasing of the cooling rates. It was found that there are three modes of transportation of the solute atoms involved in relation to the γ′ precipitates: dissolution from the small γ′ precipitates to the γ matrix, diffusion to the large γ′ precipitates from the matrix, and the short distance among γ′ precipitates close to each other. Meanwhile, the slower cooling rates tend to result in the serrated grain boundaries, and the wavelength between successive peaks (λ) and the maximum amplitude (A) are larger with the decreasing of the cooling rates. The content of the low ΣCSL boundaries increases with the decreasing of the cooling rates, which is of great benefit in improving the creep property of the Waspaloy.

In the present study, fatigue crack propagation (FCP) tests on Mg alloy, AZ61, were performed in 3% NaCl solution. The cathodic potential was controlled to achieve the hydrogen charged condition without anodic dissolution to figure out the effect of hydrogen on FCP behavior. The cathodic potential was set to be-3.0V, which corresponds to the immunity region without corrosion reaction based on Pourbaix diagram of Mg. The FCP rates were accelerated under hydrogen charged condition compared to those in dry air. Magnesium hydrides, MgH2, were not detected along the crack wake in the measurement by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) method, suggesting that the acceleration could be attributed to the diffusion of hydrogen atoms.

AbstractMeasurement of minor element compositions at irradiated grain boundaries in austenitic stainless steels indicates that Si is the only element that significantly responds to radiation-induced segregation. Other minor elements, such as P or S, do not exhibit elevated grain boundary concentrations after irradiation. A rate theory evaluation of segregation is in accord with ioninduced Si enrichment, but reveals complexities in the interpretation of extrapolating behavior from ion-irradiation to neutron-irradiation behavior. The model calibrated to measured high-rate, ioninduced segregation greatly overestimates measured low-rate, neutron-irradiation segregation of Si.
