    Microstructure-Based Prediction of Mechanical Properties of Austempered Ductile Iron Using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis
    (Springer int Publ Ag, 2025) Yalcin, M. Alp; Davut, Kemal
    Multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) was used to predict the mechanical properties of austempered ductile iron (ADI) including yield and tensile strength, uniform elongation, hardening exponent, as well as fracture energy by building a model that uses characteristic features of microstructural constituents as input parameters. The complex multi-scale microstructure of ADI, which is composed of spherical graphite particles over 10 mu m diameter; and an ausferritic matrix with sub-micron sized features, makes it ideal for prediction of mechanical properties. For that purpose, low alloyed ductile iron samples austempered between 300 and 400 degrees C for 45-180 min were tensile tested, and also multi-scale microstructural characterization were carried out using optical microscope, SEM, and EBSD technique. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis was performed to determine which microstructural parameter(s) each mechanical property is most sensitive to. The results show that tensile and yield strength are most sensitive to size and morphology of matrix phases. Moreover, the size and aspect ratio of acicular ferrite correlate well with those of high-carbon austenite; since both form during transformation of parent austenite into ausferrite during austempering treatment. Equiaxed parent austenite grains transform into ausferrite with acicular morphology during the austempering treatment; and presence of equiaxed austenite grains in the austempered samples indicates untransformed regions during austempering treatment. Ductility was found to be more sensitive to nodularity of graphite particles, and this sensitivity was attributed to the size difference between graphite particles and grain size of matrix phases.

    A Review of the Experimental and Numerical Studies on the Compression Behavior of the Additively Produced Metallic Lattice Structures at High and Low Strain Rates
    (KeAi Communications Co., 2025) Bin Riaz, Muhammad Arslan; Guden, Mustafa
    Recent advances in additive manufacturing have enabled the construction of metallic lattice structures with tailored mechanical and functional properties. One potential application of metallic lattice structures is in the impact load mitigation where an external kinetic energy is absorbed by the deformation/ crushing of lattice cells. This has motivated a growing number of experimental and numerical studies, recently, on the crushing behavior of additively produced lattice structures. The present study overviews the dynamic and quasi-static crushing behavior of additively produced Ti64, 316L, and AlSiMg alloy lattice structures. The first part of the study summarizes the main features of two most commonly used additive processing techniques for lattice structures, namely selective-laser-melt (SLM) and electrobeam-melt (EBM), along with a description of commonly observed process induced defects. In the second part, the deformation and strain rate sensitivities of the selected alloy lattices are outlined together with the most widely used dynamic test methods, followed by a part on the observed microstructures of the SLM and EBM-processed Ti64, 316L and AlSiMg alloys. Finally, the experimental and numerical studies on the quasi-static and dynamic compression behavior of the additively processed Ti6 4, 316L, and AlSiMg alloy lattices are reviewed. The results of the experimental and numerical studies of the dynamic properties of various types of lattices, including graded, non-uniform strut size, hollow, non-uniform cell size, and bio-inspired, were tabulated together with the used dynamic testing methods. The dynamic tests have been noted to be mostly conducted in compression Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) or Taylor-and direct-impact tests using the SHPB set-up, in all of which relatively small-size test specimens were tested. The test specimen size effect on the compression behavior of the lattices was further emphasized. It has also been shown that the lattices of Ti6 4 and AlSiMg alloys are relatively brittle as compared with the lattices of 316L alloy. Finally, the challenges associated with modelling lattice structures were explained and the micro tension tests and multi-scale modeling techniques combining microstructural characteristics with macroscopic lattice dynamics were recommended to improve the accuracy of the numerical simulations of the dynamic compression deformations of metallic lattice structures.

    A Comprehensive Study of the Effect of Scanning Strategy on In939 Fabricated by Powder Bed Fusion-Laser Beam
    (Elsevier, 2024) Dogu, Merve Nur; Ozer, Seren; Yalcin, Mustafa Alp; Davut, Kemal; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Simsir, Caner; Brabazon, Dermot
    This study provides a comprehensive investigation into the effects of different scanning strategies on the material properties of IN939 fabricated using the PBF-LB process. The scanning strategies examined included alternating bi-directional scanning with rotation angles of 0 degrees, 45 degrees, 67 degrees, and 90 degrees between adjacent layers (named as shown), as well as alternating chessboard scanning with rotation angles of 67 degrees and 90 degrees (named as Q67 degrees and Q90 degrees). The results revealed that the 45 degrees and 67 degrees samples had the highest relative density, while the 0 degrees and Q67 degrees samples showed the highest average porosity. Moreover, various types of cracks, including solidification, solid-state, and oxide-induced cracks, were observed. Among the bi-directional scan samples, the 0 degrees sample displayed the most extensive cracking and the highest sigma max residual stress values in both XZ and XY planes. Conversely, the 45 degrees and 67 degrees samples exhibited fewer cracks. Notably, the lowest sigma max residual stress in the XZ planes among the bidirectional scan samples was observed in the 67 degrees sample. Additionally, microstructural analyses indicated differences in grain size and morphology, among the samples. Texture analysis indicated that the 0 degrees and 90 degrees samples exhibited strong cube textures, whereas the texture intensity weakened for the 45 degrees and 67 degrees samples. Moreover, the alternating chessboard scanning strategy led to rougher surfaces (higher Sa and Sz values) compared to the alternating bi-directional scanning strategy, regardless of the rotation angles. Furthermore, the microhardness values among the samples showed minimal variance, ranging between 321 + 14 HV and 356+ 7 HV.

    Effect of Aging Treatment on the Microstructure, Cracking Type and Crystallographic Texture of In939 Fabricated by Powder Bed Fusion-Laser Beam
    (Elsevier, 2024) Ozer, Seren; Dogu, Merve Nur; Ozdemirel, Ceren; Bilgin, Guney Mert; Gunes, Mert; Davut, Kemal; Brabazon, Dermot
    This study aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how aging treatments (namely, HT1 and HT2) affect the microstructure, cracking behavior, and crystallographic texture of IN939 fabricated by powder bed fusion-laser beam (PBF-LB) method. Although both aged samples demonstrated similar grain structure and recrystallization behavior according to the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis, as well as the precipitation of bimodal gamma ' phase and MC- and M23C6-type carbides, notable differences were observed in the size and morphology, particularly the gamma ' phase. The HT1 sample displayed coarsened primary gamma ' phase, with sizes reaching up to 2 mu m and exhibiting varied morphologies, including irregular and cuboidal shapes. Additionally, this treatment led to the formation of some gamma '-gamma eutectic regions and plate-like eta phase, along with the decomposition of MC-type carbides into M23C6-type carbides. In contrast, the HT2 sample displayed uniformly distributed spherical primary gamma ' phase with sizes ranging from 70 to 120 nm, accompanied by very fine secondary gamma ' phase. Furthermore, it was found that changes in both aged sample microstructures could result in the formation of strain-age cracks due to the gamma ' phase formation and liquation cracks due to the partial remelting of lower melting point phases. The findings also revealed that with the application of aging treatments, the hardness of the as-fabricated sample (339.8 +/- 3.4 HV) increased to 440.2 +/- 5.6 HV and 508.1 +/- 4.8 HV for the heat treatment of HT1 and HT2, respectively.

    Mechanical Performance of Metallic Biomaterials
    (Elsevier, 2023) Uzer-Yilmaz,B.
    Metallic biomaterials prevail over other classes of biomaterials with their synergistic combination of superior mechanical properties, corrosion and wear resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Titanium and its alloys, stainless steels, and Co–Cr alloys have been the mostly preferred metallic biomaterials, though each exhibits significantly different mechanical performance in the body. Chemical composition, microstructure, or applied processing can significantly affect their performances. This chapter explains the phenomenon and mechanisms underlying the mechanical behavior of metallic biomaterials and induced biological responses. Methods to improve these properties are reviewed by referring to in vivo and in vitro examples. Failure of metallic implants and mechanisms leading to unsuccessful treatment are explained. Finally, future prospect of metallic biomaterials and manufacturing processes is discussed. © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Influence of Microstructure and Crystallographic Texture on Hydrogen Diffusion in If-Steel
    (Technical Faculty, Bor-serbia, 2023) Baskaya, U.; Uzun, R.; Davut, K.; Kilic, Y.; Gunduz, O.
    The relation between microstructure, crystallographic texture, and hydrogen diffusion was studied on a IF-steel. The steel samples were deep drawn to a strain level of 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% and then the hydrogen diffusion coefficients were determined using the Helios II system. Light optical microscope (LOM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) were used for microstructural characterization and crystallographic texture studies. The dependence of microstructural parameters was evaluated by Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) values. These evaluations showed that local misorientations, crystallographic texture, and dislocation densityare interdependent. The PCC values show that grain size and dislocation density are the independent microstructure related parameters. These parameters were used to build a model to predict the hydrogen diffusion coefficient by multiple linear regression analysis. A sensitivity analysis was also performed with this model to understand to which parameter the hydrogen diffusion is most sensitive. The results of this analysis show that hydrogen diffusion is more sensitive to dislocation density, suggesting that dislocations are more effective trapping sites for hydrogen atoms. On the other hand, grain boundaries are less effective trapping sites since they also provide an additional diffusion mechanism.

    A Comprehensive Characterization of the Effect of Spatter Powder on In939 Parts Fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023) Dogu, Merve Nur; Mussatto, Andre; Yalçın, Mustafa Alp; Özer, Seren; Davut, Kemal; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Kumar, Ajay
    This study is focused on a comprehensive characterization of virgin and spatter IN939 powders and the effects of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality of IN939 fabricated by the L-PBF process. A brown tint coloration formed Al2O3 oxide, pores, a 124.4% increase in the average particle size, a 10.2% decrease in the powder circularity, and a 7.5% decrease in the powder aspect ratio were observed in the spatter powder. Additionally, higher average grain size and lower nanohardness were obtained for the spatter powder. In order to understand the effect of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality, 10 wt% spatter powder was mixed with the virgin powder. This addition was found to decrease the flowability of the powder. Moreover, this addition decreased relative density by around 0.3% and increased surface roughness by around 80.8% in the fabricated samples (termed as V and SV). On the other hand, there was no considerable microstructural, texture, microhardness, and nanohardness difference between V and SV samples, although the spatter powder addition caused a 30.2% increase in the average grain size of SV. The overall texture for both V and SV samples exhibit (00 1)//BD.

    Review on the Parameters of Recycling Ndfeb Magnets Via a Hydrogenation Process
    (American Chemical Society, 2023) Habibzadeh, Alireza; Küçüker, Mehmet Ali; Gökelma, Mertol
    Regarding the restrictions recently imposed by China on the export of rare-earth elements (REEs), the world may face a serious challenge in supplying some REEs such as neodymium and dysprosium soon. Recycling secondary sources is strongly recommended to mitigate the supply risk of REEs. Hydrogen processing of magnetic scrap (HPMS) as one of the best approaches for magnet-to-magnet recycling is thoroughly reviewed in this study in terms of parameters and properties. The processes of hydrogen decrepitation (HD) and hydrogenation-disproportio-nation-desorption-recombination (HDDR) are two common methods for HPMS. Employing a hydrogenation process can shorten the production route of new magnets from the discarded magnets compared to other recycling routes such as the hydrometallurgical route. However, determining the optimal pressure and temperature for the process is challenging due to the sensitivity to the initial chemical composition and the interaction of temperature and pressure. Pressure, temperature, initial chemical composition, gas flow rate, particle size distribution, grain size, and oxygen content are the effective parameters for the final magnetic properties. All these influencing parameters are discussed in detail in this review. The recovery rate of magnetic properties has been the concern of most research in this field and can be achieved up to 90% by employing a low hydrogenation temperature and pressure and using additives such as REE hydrides after hydrogenation and before sintering.

    Effect of Solution Heat Treatment on the Microstructure and Crystallographic Texture of In939 Fabricated by Powder Bed Fusion-Laser Beam
    (Elsevier, 2023) Doğu, Merve Nur; Özer, Seren; Yalçın, Mustafa Alp; Davut, Kemal; Bilgin, Guney Mert; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Brodin, Hakan; Gu, Hengfeng; Brabazon, Dermot
    The effect of various solution heat treatment temperatures (i.e., 1120, 1160, 1200 and 1240 & DEG;C) on the microstructure, grain morphology and crystallographic texture of IN939 fabricated by powder bed fusion-laser beam (PBF-LB) was investigated. Microstructural analyses showed that the high-temperature gradient and rapid solidification of the PBF-LB processing caused different resulting microstructures compared to conventionally pro-duced counterparts. The melt pool morphologies and laser scanning paths were examined in the as-fabricated samples in the XZ-and XY-planes, respectively. After the application of solution heat treatment at 1120 & DEG;C, the as-fabricated PBF-LB initial microstructure was still apparent. For solution heat treatments of 1200 & DEG;C and above, the melt pool and scanning path morphologies disappeared and converted into a mixture of columnar grains in the XZ-plane and equiaxed grains in the XY-plane. On the other hand, large equiaxed grains were observed when the samples were solutionized at 1240 & DEG;C. Additionally, g' phase precipitated within the matrix after all solution heat treatment conditions, which led to increase in the microhardness values. According to electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analyses, both as-fabricated and solution heat-treated samples had intense texture with {001} plane normal parallel to the building direction. The first recrystallized grains began to appear when the samples were subjected to the solution heat treatment at 1160 & DEG;C and the fraction of the recrystallized grains increased with increasing temperature, as supported by kernel average misorientation (KAM) and grain spread orientation (GOS) analyses.& COPY; 2023 The Author(s).

    Effect of Heat Input on Haz Softening in Fiber Laser Welding of 22mnb5 Steel
    (Elsevier, 2023) Tuncel, Oğuz; Aydın, Hakan; Davut, Kemal
    This study investigates the effects of heat input on the heat-affected zone (HAZ) softening in fiber laser welding of quenched 1.1 mm thick 22MnB5 steel. Laser power (1500-2500 W) and welding speed (40-120 mm/s) parameters are considered as the input process variables. Depending on the input parameters, the applied heat input varied between 12.5 and 62.5 J/mm. The results indicate that a minimum heat input of 50 J/mm is required for full weld penetration. Microhardness findings revealed that the drop in hardness in the HAZ region relative to the base material (BM) reached 39% due to grain coarsening caused by an increase in heat input under the welding conditions. Grain coarsening (prior austenite grains) is also detected in SEM analysis. In addition, grain coarsening at high heat input was also determined quantitatively in EBSD analyses. The proportion of 8.91 mu m grain size in the sample with high heat input is 4.2%, while it is 1.2% in the sample with low heat input. When the heat input increased from 12.5 to 62.5 J/mm, the width of the softened zone with the lowest hardnesses in the HAZ grew from 0.2 mm to 2.2 mm.
