Twin-like domains were observed in deformed magnesium by using electron backscatter diffraction. These domains do not satisfy any of the known twin orientation relationships, but have a high misorientation angle of similar to 57 degrees and a rotation axis of < 1 0 (1) over bar 0 >. Fracture occurred primarily in these domains. {1 0 (1) over bar 2}< 1 0 (1) over bar (1) over bar > twins were observed at the domain/matrix interfaces, and these twins may relax local stress and retard crack propagation. Trace analysis shows that the domains are likely on {1 0 (1) over bar 1} planes. Interaction between the domains may lead to crack nucleation. (C) 2013 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Summary: AFS-D is a transformative metallic AM process capable of producing near-net shape components with a wide variety of material systems. The solid-state nature of the process allows for successful deposition of materials without common defects seen in other metallic AM technologies. The study found significant grain refinement and impact on material properties from the AFS-D process, and noted that recommended lubrication for feedstock rods may not be effectively dispersed into the structure, affecting bonding between layers.

Elucidating the Effect of Additive Friction Stir Deposition on the Resulting Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Magnesium Alloy WE43

M. B. Williams, T. W. Robinson, C. J. Williamson, R. P. Kinser, N. A. Ashmore, P. G. Allison, J. B. Jordon

Summary: The effect of processing parameters on WE43 magnesium alloy processed via Additive Friction Stir Deposition (AFSD) was investigated. A parameterization study identified suitable parameters for bulk WE43 deposition, resulting in a refined homogenous microstructure and specific changes in mechanical properties compared to wrought material. Fatigue life in the low-cycle regime was decreased in as-deposited WE43, but comparable to wrought material in the high-cycle regime, demonstrating the potential of AFSD process for additively manufactured load-bearing components with WE43 magnesium alloy.

On the co-nucleation of adjoining twin pairs at grain boundaries in hexagonal close-packed materials

Darshan Bamney, Laurent Capolungo

Summary: This work investigates the formation of adjoining twin pairs (ATPs) at grain boundaries (GBs) in hexagonal close-packed (hcp) metals, focusing on the co-nucleation (CN) of pairs of deformation twins. A continuum defect mechanics model is proposed to study the energetic feasibility of CN of ATPs resulting from GB dislocation dissociation. The model reveals that CN is preferred over the nucleation of a single twin variant for low misorientation angle GBs. Further analysis considering GB character and twin system alignment suggests that CN events could be responsible for ATP formation even at low m' values.

Sharp/diffuse antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase transition regulated by atomic displacement ordering

Bing Han, Zhengqian Fu, Guoxiang Zhao, Xuefeng Chen, Genshui Wang, Fangfang Xu

Summary: This study investigates the behavior of electric-field induced antiferroelectric to ferroelectric (AFE-FE) phase transition and reveals the evolution of atomic displacement ordering as the cause for the transition behavior changing from sharp to diffuse. The novel semi-ordered configuration results from the competing interaction between long-range displacement modulation and compositional inhomogeneity, which leads to a diffuse AFE-FE transition while maintaining the switching field.

A physics-constrained neural network for crystal plasticity modelling of FCC materials

Guowei Zhou, Yuanzhe Hu, Zizheng Cao, Myoung Gyu Lee, Dayong Li

Summary: In this work, a physics-constrained neural network is used to predict grain-level responses in FCC material by incorporating crystal plasticity theory. The key feature, shear strain rate of slip system, is identified based on crystal plasticity and incorporated into the loss function as physical constitutive equations. The introduction of physics constraints accelerates the convergence of the neural network model and improves prediction accuracy, especially for small-scale datasets. Transfer learning is performed to capture complex in-plane deformation of crystals with any initial orientations, including cyclic loading and arbitrary non-monotonic loading.

Relating the combinatorial materials chip mapping to the glass-forming ability of bulk metallic glasses via diffraction peak width

Ze Liu, Cai Chen, Yuanxun Zhou, Lanting Zhang, Hong Wang

Summary: This study attempts to address the gap in cooling rates between thin film deposition and bulk metallic glass (BMG) casting by correlating the glass-forming range (GFR) determined from combinatorial materials chips (CMCs) with the glass-forming ability (GFA) of BMG. The results show that the full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) is a good indicator of BMG GFA, and strong positive correlations between FWHM and the critical casting diameter (Dmax) are observed in various BMG systems. Furthermore, the Pearson correlation coefficients suggest possible similarities in the GFA natures of certain BMG pairs.
