  1. 1. Microstructure and hydrogen embrittlement of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V

    Author : Magnus Neikter; Marta-Lena Antti; Pia Åkerfeldt; Robert Pederson; Ola Harrysson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ti-6Al-4V; Additive Manufacturing; Texture; Microstructure; Hydrogen Embrittlement; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : The work of this doctoral thesis has been performed between the 24th of August 2015 to the 6th of September 2019. The general purpose of this work has been to increase the knowledge of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V when it comes to microstructure, texture and hydrogen embrittlement. READ MORE

  2. 2. On the hot crack formation during solidification of iron-base alloys

    Author : Karin Hansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : hot cracking; hot tearing; cracking fracturing ; tearing; ductility; brittleness; embrittlement; fractures; ductile brittle transition; solidification; iron; copper; nickel; Invar; steels; free machining steels; stainless steels; penetration; crack;

    Abstract : Hot cracking during solidification is a severe problem inmany casting processes, for example in continuous casting.Combinations of low strength and low ductility of the materialat high temperatures and applied tensile stress can cause hotcracking. READ MORE

  3. 3. Multiscale modeling of atomic transport phenomena in ferritic steels

    Author : Luca Messina; Pär Olsson; Nils Sandberg; Pål Efsing; Pascal Bellon; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diffusion; impurities; iron; metals; kinetic Monte Carlo; ab initio; mean field; defects; embrittlement; reactor pressure vessel; neural networks; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Defect-driven transport of impurities plays a key role in the microstructure evolution of alloys, and has a great impact on the mechanical properties at the macroscopic scale. This phenomenon is greatly enhanced in irradiated materials because of the large amount of radiation-induced crystal defects (vacancies and interstitials). READ MORE

  4. 4. Delayed Hydride Cracking in Irradiated Zircaloy

    Author : Pål Efsing; Kjell Pettersson; Christopher Coleman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrides; hydrogen; embrittlement; delayed cracking; fracture toughness; fracture resistance; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Under some circumstances nuclear fuel cladding tubes made from zirconium based alloys may develop long axial cracks. The formation of these cracks is mainly thought to be connected with the oxiditian and hydriding of the cladding which takes plage after the the formation of a small primary defect. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hydrogen embrittlement and corrosion behavior of low-temperature carburized austenitic stainless steel

    Author : Xiao Qin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; low-temperature carburising; hydrogen embrittlement; Austenitic stainless steel; microstructure; corrosion behavior; expanded austenite;

    Abstract : For metallic components used in hydrogen environments, hydrogen embrittlement and corrosion have always been important considering potential failure risks. Among many metallic materials, austenitic stainless steel has found broad application because of its excellent corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. READ MORE
