    Investigations on the Effect of Secondary Treatments on Ti48Al2Cr2Nb Alloy Manufactured by Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion Method
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Bilgin, Guney Mert; Ozer, Seren; Davut, Kemal; Esen, Ziya; Dericioglu, Arcan F.
    As-built Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy samples produced by electron beam powder bed fusion (PBF-EB) exhibited notable brittleness. The low ductility was attributed to coarse gamma bands aligned perpendicular to the building and tensile direction. Additionally, variations in aluminum content and hardness between the coarse colonies and fine gamma/alpha(2) lamellae contribute to this phenomenon. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) studies revealed a higher amount of dislocation density and inherent strain after PBF-EB manufacturing. Hence, usage of Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy in the as-built condition in aviation applications with high loads and demanding environments is not found to be viable. To eliminate these negative aspects and make PBF-EB produced Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy available for demanding applications, two distinct post-processing heat treatments; namely, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and annealing heat treatment (HT) were employed at 1200 degrees C. A comprehensive characterization covering microstructure analysis, EBSD, fracture surface examination, as well as room and high-temperature tensile tests allowed determination of the effect of post-processes. HIPing altered the banded structure observed in the as-built samples by increasing the amount of alpha(2) phase and grain size. On the other hand, HT made the banded structure more pronounced without significantly increasing the amount of alpha(2) phase. HT also strengthened the <001> texture, while HIPing introduced randomization of grains. On the other hand, complete recrystallization is achieved as a result of HT at 1200 degrees C for 2 h, whereas HIPing at the same temperature for 2 h induced only 80.5 % recrystallization. In both post-processes, dislocation density and inherent strain were reduced. Room temperature and high-temperature tensile tests demonstrated that both HIPing and HT eliminated the extreme brittleness of the as-built samples.

    Microstructural Evolution and Mechanical Performance of Dual-Phase Steels Under Fiber Laser Welding: Effects of Heat Input and Weld Penetration
    (Springer, 2025) Tuncel, Oguz; Davut, Kemal; Aydin, Hakan
    This study investigates the effects of fiber laser welding (FLW) parameters on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of DP800, DP1000, and DP1200 dual-phase steels, focusing on the role of heat input. Welding was performed using laser powers ranging from 1500 to 3000 W and welding speeds between 20 and 100 mm/s, resulting in heat inputs from 18 to 120 J/mm. Optimal welding conditions were identified as 55 J/mm for DP800, 120 J/mm for DP1000, and 53 J/mm for DP1200, which ensured full penetration and minimized HAZ softening. Detailed microstructural analysis using SEM and EBSD revealed significant transformations in the heat-affected zone (HAZ), including martensite degradation, grain coarsening, and tempered martensite formation, particularly in DP1200 steel, where hardness reductions reached up to 29%. Tensile tests demonstrated that while DP800 and DP1000 joints primarily failed within the base material (BM) with ductile fracture characteristics, DP1200 joints fractured within the HAZ due to a combination of brittle cleavage and ductile dimples caused by martensite breakdown and carbide precipitation. The findings underscore the necessity of optimizing welding parameters to control HAZ softening and preserve mechanical performance. By systematically analyzing the interplay between heat input, microstructure, and mechanical properties across different DP steel grades, this research provides a comprehensive understanding of how FLW conditions influence joint integrity, offering valuable guidance for designing robust welding strategies in advanced engineering applications.

    Influence of Partitioning Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of an Alloyed Ductile Iron Austempered at Different Temperatures
    (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2023) Neite, Maximilian; Münstermann, Sebastian; Nalçacı, Burak; Davut, Kemal; Erdoğan, Mehmet
    The present study was conducted to uncover effects of partitioning treatment on Cu-Ni-Mo alloyed ductile iron (DI) austempered at different temperatures. For this purpose, the DI samples, produced via sand casting, were austenitized at 900 °C for 60 min, followed by austempering at the temperatures of 275-325-375 °C for 120 min and afterwards a partitioning treatment was applied at 200 °C for 15 min. In the characterization studies, dilatometer, image analysis, JMat-Pro, mechanical tests, XRD, optical microscope, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with EBSD detector were utilized. Characterization studies showed that the effects of partitioning treatment were directly correlated with austempering temperature and high carbon austenite volume fraction changed in the range of 19.48-35.45%. That redistribution of carbon (C) between bainitic ferrite and high carbon austenite occurred, in turn, the carbon content of high carbon austenite increased with the partitioning treatment irrespective of austempering temperature were uncovered. Furthermore, the partitioning treatment considerably changed the grain morphologies of both high carbon austenite and banitic ferrite. As a consequence of these microstructural differences, the highest tensile strength of 1489.2 MPa was established in the sample austempered at 275 °C and partitioned at 200 °C, whereas the highest ductility of 5.61% acquired at the austempering temperature of 375 °C. © 2023 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston.

    Nondestructive Microstructural Characterization of Austempered Ductile Iron
    (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2023) Tüzün, Mert Yağız; Yalçın, Mustafa Alp; Davut, Kemal; Kılıçlı, Volkan
    Austempered ductile iron (ADI) has been preferred in a wide range of applications due its unique combination of high strength, good ductility, wear resistance and fracture toughness together with lower cost and lower density compared to steels. Magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) measurement offers a better alternative to traditional characterization techniques by being fast and non-destructive. A simple linear regression using only one single independent variable cannot correlate the MBN with the microstructure of ADI, since its microstructure is multi component. Multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) was used to build a model that uses the characteristic features of microstructural constituents as input parameters to predict the MBN. For that purpose, Cu-Ni-Mo alloyed ductile iron samples austempered between 325 and 400 degrees C and for 45-180 min duration were used. The results show that MBN is most sensitive to the size and shape of acicular ferrite and retained austenite. Moreover, MBN is almost insensitive to the size, morphology and volume fraction of graphite particles. This indicates that retained austenite pins the domain walls more effectively than the graphite particles. Considering the results MLRA, MBN technique can be used to characterize the ausferritic microstructure of ADI.
