Abstract

In this study, contemporary steel research is revealing new processing avenues to tailor microstructure and properties that, until recently, were only imaginable. Much of the technological versatility facilitating this development is provided by the understanding and utilization of the complex phase transformation sequences available in ferrous alloys. Today we have the opportunity to explore the diverse phenomena displayed by steels with specialized analytical and experimental tools. Advances in multi-scale characterization techniques provide a fresh perspective into microstructural relationships at the macro- and micro-scale, enabling a fundamental understanding of the role of phase transformations during processing and subsequent deformation.

Challenges at the Frontiers of Matter and Energy: Transformative Opportunities for Discovery Science

Program Document Hemminger, John C. ; Sarrao, John ; Crabtree, George ; ...

FIVE TRANSFORMATIVE OPPORTUNITIES FOR DISCOVERY SCIENCE As a result of this effort, it has become clear that the progress made to date on the five Grand Challenges has created a springboard for seizing five new Transformative Opportunities that have the potential to further transform key technologies involving matter and energy. These five new Transformative Opportunities and the evidence supporting them are discussed in this new report, “Challenges at the Frontiers of Matter and Energy: Transformative Opportunities for Discovery Science.” Mastering Hierarchical Architectures and Beyond-Equilibrium Matter Complex materials and chemical processes transmute matter and energy, for example from CO2 and watermore »« less

Mechanical performance and microstructure of the grade 91 stainless steel produced via Directed Energy deposition laser technique

Journal Article Samuha, S. ; Bickel, J. ; Mukherjee, T. ; ... - Materials & Design

The grade 91 ferritic/martensitic steel is considered a promising structural or cladding material for various nuclear reactor applications. Here, grade 91 was fabricated via the Directed Energy Deposition Laser technique. This alternative manufacturing process potentially enables tailoring of the mechanical properties through increased control of the product’s microstructure. Aimed at linking fabrication to performance via defining the process-structure–property relationships, the current research includes macro and up to nano-scale mechanical testing using microhardness, tensile, and in-situ nanoindentation hardness, coupled with electron diffraction-based microstructure characterization. Mapping of the product structure and properties was conducted by testing miniature-sized samples, parallel to the builtmore »« less

DE-NE0000724 - Research Performance Final Report - Investigation of Thermal Aging Effects on the Evolution of Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Cast Duplex Stainless Steels

Technical Report Ankem, Sreeramamurthy ; Perea, Daniel E. ; Kolli, R. Prakash ; ...

This report details the research activities carried out under DOE-NEUP award number DE-NE0000724 concerning the evolution of structural and mechanical properties during thermal aging of CF–3 and CF–8 cast duplex stainless steels (CDSS). The overall objective of this project was to use state-of-the-art characterization techniques to elucidate trends and phenomena in the mechanical and structural evolution of cast duplex stainless steels (CDSS) during thermal aging. These steels are commonly used as structural materials in commercial light water nuclear power plants, undergoing aging for decades in operation as cooling water pipes, pump casings, valve bodies, etc. During extended exposure to thesemore »« less

High-Silicon Steel Strip by Single-Step Shear Deformation Processing

Technical Report Chandrasekar, Srinivasan ; Trumble, Kevin P. ; Mann, James B. ; ...

It is well known that Fe-Si alloys with Si content higher than in conventional electrical sheet steels (>3.2% Si) can make a significant impact in improving the efficiency of electrical motors if they are available in sheet/foil (strip) forms at suitable cost. While the magnetic and electrical attributes (e.g., resistivity, core loss) of these high-Si Fe alloys, of relevance to electrical motor core laminations, are known to be exceptional, the alloys have limited workability, making them difficult to produce consistently in sheet/foil (strip) forms. Current processing techniques such as rolling, while adequate for producing conventional electrical steel sheet, do havemore »« less
