Spherical indentation method for estimating equibiaxial residual stress and elastic-plastic properties of metals simultaneously

For instrumented spherical indentation, the presence of equibiaxial residual stress in a material will lead the indentation load-depth curve to shift upward or downward. The load differences between the stressed and stress-free curves were used to estimate the equibiaxial residual stress. Using dimensional analysis and finite element simulations, the equibiaxial residual stress was related to the elastic-plastic parameters and the relative load difference at a fixed normalized indentation depth (h/R = 0.1). Based on these expressions, and together with the method for determining elastic-plastic parameters established in our previous work, an integrated method was proposed to estimate the equibiaxial residual stress and elastic-plastic parameters of metals simultaneously via instrumented spherical indentation. This method avoids preknowledge of the yield strength and measuring the contact area. Applications were illustrated on Al 2024, Al 7075, and Ti Grade 5 with introduced stresses. By comparing the results determined by this integrated method with the reference values, the maximum relative error is generally within +/- 10% for the yield strength, within +/- 15% for the elastic modulus, and within +/- 20% for the equibiaxial</p

Designing ultrafine lamellar eutectic structure in bimodal titanium alloys by semi-solid sintering

We report on a novel approach to design typical ultrafine lamellar eutectic structure in bimodal alloys fabricated by semi-solid sintering (SSS) of a eutectic mixture. In our work ultrafine lamellar eutectic structure was implemented by controlling the phase composition of eutectic reaction and consequently by regulating the structure of eutectic reaction-induced liquid phase through varying component number. Microstructure analysis indicate that although all SSSed alloys have the same three phase constitutions of bcc beta-Ti(Fe Co) and fcc Ti-2(Co Fe) the morphology and distribution of the eutectic structure transforms from limited length and minor quantity to partial fine alternating bcc beta-Ti and bcc Ti(Fe Co) lamellae and further to typical complete ultrafine alternating continuous lamellae in the SSSed ternary Ti-Fe-Co quaternary Ti-Fe-Co-Nb and quinary Ti-Fe-Co-Nb-Al alloys. Interestingly the SSSed Ti-Fe-Co-Nb-Al alloy presents a novel bimodal microstructure of coarse fcc Ti-2(Co Fe) surrounded by an ultrafine lamellar eutectic matrix containing ultrafine bcc beta-Ti and bcc Ti(Fe Co) lamellae. This bimodal microstructure exhibits ultra-high yield strength of 2050 MPa with plasticity in compression of 19.7% which exceed published values of equivalent materials. Our results provide a novel pathway for fabricating new-structure metallic alloys for high-performance structural applications. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.</p

Honeytubes: Hollow lattice truss reinforced honeycombs for crushing protection

Lattice truss reinforced honeycombs (LTRHs), termed honeytubes, were developed based on a hybrid design of micro-lattice truss and square honeycomb topologies. Carbon fiber reinforced composite and polymer LTRHs were fabricated using different manufacturing approaches. Out-of-plane compression tests were performed on the LTRHs, and the properties were compared with the conventional square honeycombs. The stiffness and strength values of composite LTRHs didn't surpass those of composite square honeycombs due to the manually induced defects. On the other hand, polymeric LTRHs with perfect geometries were stiffer and stronger than the corresponding polymeric square honeycombs. A parametric study of the buckling resistance was carried out via finite element analysis, and the results indicated that hollow lattice stiffens honeycombs and increases the resistance to buckling, while the specific properties of honeytubes depend on their geometrical parameters. Moreover, the crush force efficiency and specific energy absorption were greater than those of square honeycombs and hollow lattice. This work demonstrates that hybrid designs that capitalize on micro-topologies can populate vacant regions in mechanical property charts, and provide increased energy absorption as crushing protection structures.

A moving-coil designed micro-mechanics tester with application on MEMS

A moving-coil designed micro-mechanics tester, named as MicroUTM (universal testing machine), is in-house developed in this paper for micro-mechanics tests. The main component is a moving coil suspended in a uniform magnetic field through a set of springs. When a current passes through the coil, the electromagnetic force is proportional to the magnitude of the current, so the load can easily be measured by the current. The displacement is measured using a capacitive sensor. The load is calibrated using a Sartorius BP211D analytical balance, with a resolution/range of 0.01 mg/80 g or 0.1 mg/210 g. The displacement is calibrated using a HEIDENHAIN CT-6002 length gauge with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 mu m. The calibration results show that the load range is +/- 1 N and the displacement range is +/- 300 mu m. The noise levels of the load and displacement are 50 mu N and 150 nm, respectively. The nonlinearity of the load is only 0.2%. Several in-plane load tests of the MEMS micro-cantilever are performed using this tester. Experimental results, with excellent repeatability, demonstrate the reliability of the load measurement as well as the flexible function of this tester
