Conference Object Asymmetry in the Tension and Compression Flow Stress and the Effect of Sub-Cell Size on the Hardness of a Selective Laser Melt 316l Stainless Steel(Springer, 2022) Güden, Mustafa; Enser, Samed; Arslan Hamat, Burcu; Tanrıkulu, A. Alptuğ; Yavaş, HakanAn asymmetry between tension and compression tests was determined experimentally in the Selective Laser Melt (SLM) stainless steel 316L alloy in the building direction. The asymmetry was ascribed to the used biaxial scanning strategy which resulted in a strong alignment of 〈110〉 along the build direction (fiber texture) and a random distribution of 〈100〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 directions normal to the building direction. The strong fiber texture in the building direction induced lower twinning stress in tension than in compression, while the tension and compression twining stresses were found similar in the normal to building direction. The favored twinning in the specimens tested in the building direction resulted in a higher tensile true fracture strain; hence, a higher ductility. Lastly, the hardness measurements made on the specimens having similar gain sizes, but different sub-cell sizes processed using higher and lower laser powers tended to support that the sub-cell boundaries in SLM-316L alloy acted as imperfect barriers to the dislocation motion.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14The Quasi-Static Crush Response of Electron-Beam Ti6al4v Body-Centred Lattices: The Effect of the Number of Cells, Strut Diameter and Face Sheet(Wiley, 2022) Güden, Mustafa; Alpkaya, Alican Tuncay; Arslan Hamat, Burcu; Hızlı, Burak; Taşdemirci, Alper; Tanrıkulu, A. Alptuğ; Yavaş, HakanThe effect of the number of cells, strut diameter and face sheet on the compression of electron-beam-melt (EBM) Ti6Al4V (Ti64) body-centred-cubic (BCC) lattices was investigated experimentally and numerically. The lattices with the same relative density (~0.182) were fabricated with and without 2-mm-thick face sheets in 10 and 5 mm cell size, 8–125 unit cell (two to five cells/edge) and 2 and 1 mm strut diameter. The experimental compression tests were further numerically simulated in the LS-DYNA. Experimentally two bending-dominated crushing modes, namely, lateral and diagonal layer crushing, were determined. The numerical models however exhibited merely a bending-dominated lateral layer crushing mode when the erosion strain was 0.4 and without face-sheet models showed a diagonal layer crushing mode when the erosion strain was 0.3. Lower erosion strains promoted a diagonal layer crushing mode by introducing geometrical inhomogeneity to the lattice, leading to strain localisation as similar to the face sheets which introduced extensive strut bending in the layers adjacent to the face sheets. The face-sheet model showed a higher but decreasing collapse strength at an increasing number of cells, just as opposite to the without face-sheet model, and the collapse strength of both models converged when the number of cells was higher than five-cell/edge. The decrease/increase of the collapse strengths of lattices before the critical number of cells was claimed mainly due to the size-imposed lattice boundary condition, rather than the specimen volume. The difference in the experimental collapse strengths between the 5- and the 10-mm cell-size lattices was ascribed to the variations in the microstructures—hence the material model parameters between the small-diameter and the large-diameter EBM-Ti64 strut lattices.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Comparing Compression Deformation and Rate Sensitivity of Additively Manufactured and Extruded-Annealed 316l Alloys(Springer, 2021) Enser, Samed; Yavaş, Hakan; Arslan Hamat, Burcu; Aydın, Hüseyin; Kafadar, Gülten; Tanrıkulu, A. Alptuğ; Zeytin Kazdal, Havva; Öztürk, Fahrettin; Güden, MustafaThe deformation behavior of a selective-laser-melt-processed 316-L alloy (SLM-316L) under compression was determined together with a commercial annealed-extruded 316L alloy bar (C-316L) for comparison. Strain rate jump tests and hardness tests on the untested and compression tested samples were also performed. Extensive microscopic observations on the deformed and undeformed samples showed a twinning-dominated deformation in SLM-316L, similar to twinning-induced-plasticity steels, while a martensitic transformation-dominated deformation in C-316L alloy, similar to transformation-induced-plasticity steels. Within the studied quasi-static strain rate regime, the measured higher strain rate sensitivity of SLM-316L was ascribed to the lower distances between the nano-twins, in the level of 100 nm, than the distances between martensite plates, in the level of 1000 nm. A higher hardness increase in the martensite transformation region as compared with the twinned region proved the higher work hardening of C-316L. The hardness tests in the micron and sub-micron levels further confirmed the previously determined relatively low resistances of the dislocation cell walls (sub-grain) to the dislocation motion in SLM-316L alloy.Article Citation - WoS: 54Citation - Scopus: 59Orientation Dependent Tensile Properties of a Selective-Laser 316l Stainless Steel(Elsevier, 2021) Güden, Mustafa; Yavaş, Hakan; Tanrıkulu, Ahmet Alptuğ; Taşdemirci, Alper; Akın, Barış; Enser, Samed; Karakuş, Ayberk; Arslan Hamat, BurcuThe effect of specimen inclination angle with respect to building direction on the tensile properties of a selective laser melt 316L alloy was investigated. Tensile test specimens were fabricated with the angles between 0 degrees to 90 degrees at 15 degrees intervals using a rotation scanning. In addition, 316L alloy test specimens were generated in the ANSYS 2020R1 additive module and tensile tested in LS-DYNA in order to determine the effect of residual stresses on the tensile strengths. The microscopic analysis revealed a strong < 110 > fiber texture orientation along the building direction (the loading axis of 0 degrees inclined specimens) and a weak 111 texture or nearly random distribution of directions in the normal to the building direction (tensile loading axis of 90 degrees inclined specimens). The yield and tensile strength increased and ductility decreased with increasing inclination angle. The strength variation with the inclination angle was shown well-fitted with the Tsai-Hill failure criterion. Although, the used numerical models indicated an inclination-dependent residual stress, the difference in the residual stresses was much lower than the difference in the strengths between 0 degrees and 90 degrees inclined specimens. Predictions showed a lower twinning stress in 0 degrees inclined specimens due to < 110 > fiber texture orientation in the tensile axis. The fiber texture resulted in extensive twinning; hence, higher ductility and tension-compression asymmetry in 0 degrees inclined specimens. Based on these results, the variations in the strength and ductility of tested SLM-316L specimens with the inclination angle was ascribed to the variations in the angle between the fiber texture orientation and loading axis.
