Article The Johnson and Cook Damage and Flow Stress Model Parameters of a Rolled Stainless Steel 304 Alloy(Elsevier, 2026) Akdogan, Ibrahim Berk; Davut, Kemal; Gueden, Mustafa; Erten, Hacer Irem; Tasdemirci, Alper; Maleki, Farshid Khosravi; Gok, Mustafa SabriPrevious studies on stainless steel 304 alloy (SS 304) have mostly focused on the stress-strain behavior as function of the volume fraction of deformation induced martensite and the applied strain and strain rate. Although equally important, the failure/fracture of this alloy has not been thoroughly investigated so far. In the present study, the Johnson and Cook (JC) damage model parameters of a rolled-SS 304 alloy, valid at a high strain rate (2900 s-1), were experimentally determined and numerically validated along with the JC flow stress parameters. The tensile failure strain of the alloy decreased as the strain rate increased from 10-3 to 10-1 s-1 and to 2900 s-1. Experimentally lower flow stresses at 2900 s-1 than at 1x10-3 s-1 were also found at the strains above 0.2, which was attributed to the adiabatic heating that declined the extend of the martensitic transformation at increasing strains. The determined damage and flow stress model parameters were further calibrated with the results of the numerical models of the quasi-static and high strain rate tension tests. Microscopic analyses and the hardness measurements on the untested and tested specimens confirmed the martensitic transformation and the highest hardness values were found in the specimens tested at 1x10-3 s-1. The martensite volume fraction as function strain rate until about necking strain (homogeneous deformation) was calculated and also microscopically determined using the electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD) for the specimens tested at different strain rates. The results indicated the highest martensite volume fraction in the specimens tested at 10-3 s-1 (0.55-0.6) and the lowest in the specimens tested at the high strain rate (0.27-0.30). An agreement between the calculated and the EBSD determined martensite volume fractions was shown for the studied alloy.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8A 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, DermotThis 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.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 11Effect 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, DermotThis 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.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 25Effect 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, DermotThe 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).

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.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 13An Experimental Study on the Ballistic Performance of Ultra-High Hardness Armor Steel (armox 600t) Against 7.62 Mm × 51 M61 Ap Projectile in the Multi-Hit Condition(Elsevier, 2023) Göde, Engin; Teoman, Atanur; Çetin, Barış; Tonbul, Kürşat; Davut, Kemal; Kuşhan, Melih CemalIn this study, Armox 600T armor steel was ballistically tested against 7.62 mm × 51 M61 AP projectile. The experimental design was constructed on the basis of the worst-case scenario which is the highest possible impact velocity in the multi-hit condition. The ballistic tests revealed that Armox 600T could defeat the worst-case scenario with a thickness of 12 mm. Furthermore, the damaged and undamaged regions were inspected microstructurally in a detail manner aiming to observe the possible fractographic modes of the studied material. Finally, high resolution optical scanning efforts were also added to the experimental work whose results uncovers the possible improvement areas regarding the quantification of the results of ballistic testing.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9The Strain Rate History Effect in a Selective-Laser 316l Stainless Steel(Elsevier, 2023) Enser, Samed; Güden, Mustafa; Taşdemirci, Alper; Davut, KemalThe strain rate history effect in a selective laser melt 316L (SLM-316L) alloy was investigated through quasi-static (10−3 s−1) and high strain rate (1600-3200 s−1) interrupted and reloading compression tests. The specimens pre-tested until about prescribed strains at quasi-static and high strain rates were reloaded dynamically and quasi-statically, respectively. The results revealed that the flow stress depended on strain and strain rate as well as strain-rate history. Quasi-static reloading the dynamically pre-tested specimens until about prescribed strains induced a higher flow stress than the specimens tested quasi-statically. The strengthening was ∼70 MPa at 0.11 pre-strain and decreased as the dynamic test pre-strain was increased due to adiabatic heating. On the other side, reloading the quasi-statically pre-tested specimens dynamically at 0.11 pre-strain resulted in ∼60 MPa lower flow stress than the specimens tested dynamically. The grains of the quasi-statically tested specimens until 0.11 strain were shown to have a lower Taylor factor for twinning and geometrically necessary dislocation density, indicating more potential for twinning than dynamically tested specimen. Although, quasi-statically and dynamically tested specimens were deformed predominantly by the twinning induced plasticity, a higher fraction of twin boundaries was shown microscopically in the dynamically pre-tested specimens until 0.11 pre-strain. This phenomenon of boundary strengthening could be used as a tool of strengthening of SLM-316L alloy at low strains.Article Citation - WoS: 45Citation - Scopus: 48Recrystallization and Grain Growth Kinetics of In718 Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion(Elsevier, 2022) Doğu, Merve Nur; Davut, Kemal; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Yalçın, Mustafa Alp; Gu, Hengfeng; Low, Thaddeus Song En; Ginn, Jon; Brabazon, DermotThe recrystallization and grain growth behaviour of IN718 alloy additively manufactured by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is presented herein. The effects of three different temperatures (1050, 1150 and 1250 °C) and holding times (15, 45 and 90 min) were investigated. The texture evolution of the samples was recorded via electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). The as-built sample is composed of bowl-shaped melt pools, a chessboard-like grain pattern and has a cube texture {100}<001>. Recrystallized grains were observed in the samples treated at 1150 °C for 15 min, as well as the samples treated for longer periods and at higher temperatures. Recrystallization was observed to start from high dislocation density regions, including the overlapping melt pools and the borders of the chessboard-like pattern. The initial cube texture transforms into a first-generation cube-twin texture {122}<212> via a twinning-assisted recrystallization mechanism. Then, those recrystallization nuclei sweep through the high defect density matrix; during which almost no new twins are formed. The samples treated at 1250 °C are almost completely recrystallized, which forms a weaker cube texture and a stronger P-orientation {011}<112>. However, the growth of recrystallized grains is very limited due to the presence of non-coherent precipitates.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6A Numerical Methodology for Monitoring Stress Distributions and Experimental Proof of the Concept on Metal Embedded Thin Polymer-Matrix Composites Using X-Ray Diffraction(Elsevier, 2022) Demir, Eralp; Sas, Hatice S.; Işık, Murat; Aydoğan Güngör, Eda; Davut, KemalIn this study, a numerical methodology is developed to monitor stress distributions and an experimental technique is investigated to measure stresses on metal embedded polymer matrix fiber-reinforced composite materials using X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The numerical method successfully predicts the stress distributions using only a few data points with an average accuracies of 11.6% and 11.8%, respectively for tapered and open hole tensile sample geometries. Experimental part of this study investigates different methodologies to measure stresses on surfaces of polymer composites materials of thin walled structures by XRD. For this reason, metallic materials were integrated onto the surface and near-surface of polymer matrix composites in three different configurations as in the forms of metal foil, metal powder, and metal wire mesh. In-situ experiments of measured and applied stresses revealed metal powder embedded composite materials as a promising material configuration for reliable monitoring of stresses.Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 41Effect of Post Fabrication Aging Treatment on the Microstructure, Crystallographic Texture and Elevated Temperature Mechanical Properties of In718 Alloy Fabricated by Selective Laser Melting(Elsevier, 2022) Özer, Seren; Bilgin, Güney Mert; Davut, Kemal; Esen, Ziya; Dericioğlu, Arcan.FThe effect of building direction and post fabrication aging treatment on the microstructure, crystallographic texture and high temperature mechanical properties of Inconel 718 (IN718) alloy fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) method was investigated. After aging, arc-shaped structures seen in as-fabricated samples disappeared and converted into a mixture of columnar and equiaxed grains. Nano-sized γ″ and/or γ′ precipitates were formed upon aging; however, MC type carbides and Laves phase encountered in as-fabricated samples were not dissolved completely after aging. Moreover, aging did not alter the texture ((001)//building direction (BD)) of as-fabricated samples. Mechanical properties of the alloys under tension were influenced by the build direction, aging time and test temperature. As-fabricated samples produced in vertical direction exhibited higher room temperature strengths with lower ductility due to orientation of overlapped prior melt pools. Room temperature tensile test results revealed that peak aging caused a significant improvement in ultimate tensile strength (UTS), from 1066.5 MPa and 998.4 MPa to 1408.5 MPa and 1330.4 MPa whereas elongation values decreased from 27.5% and 32.2% to 19.6% and 23.7% in vertically and horizontally built samples, respectively. Peak-aged samples (aged at 700 °C for 8 h) tested at 600 °C displayed serrated regions in their stress-strain curves due to dynamic strain aging (DSA). Although strength values of the samples displayed an expected decrease by temperature, ductility of the samples reduced to minimum at temperatures around 700–800 °C, which was attributed to intermediate temperature embrittlement.
