Various powder compacts with targeted compositions of TiAl and Ti(3)A1 were consolidated by field-activated sintering, specifically spark plasma sintering (SPS) at various temperatures, to examine phase growth under a superimposed electric field. While compacts with a composition of TiAl showed significant porosity after sintering, Ti(3)A1 compacts showed no porosity. The porosity is attributed principally to volume changes associated with the formation of Al3Ti and the Kirkendall effect. The kinetics underlying Al3Ti growth during SPS are also explained.

Summary: A new class of non-equiatomic NbTaTi-based refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) with excellent cold-workability and high strength at elevated temperatures has been reported. These RHEAs can be cold-rolled to a reduction of over 90% without any surface treatment or intermediate annealing. They also exhibit considerable ductility at cryogenic conditions, overcoming the traditional strength-ductility trade-off. This class of super-formable RHEAs provides a novel design pathway for energy- and time-saving fabrication of high-temperature structural materials.

Chemical order transitions within extended interfacial segregation zones in NbMoTaW

Doruk Aksoy, Megan J. McCarthy, Ian Geiger, Diran Apelian, Horst Hahn, Enrique J. Lavernia, Jian Luo, Huolin Xin, Timothy J. Rupert

Summary: This study uses atomistic modeling to simulate a high-temperature alloy and investigates the influence of interfacial segregation and chemical short-range ordering on grain boundary behavior. The results show that there are extended segregation zones near the boundaries, exhibiting chemical patterning and structural transitions. The widths of these regions are affected by grain size and temperature. Additionally, the analysis of chemical short-range order reveals that only certain elemental clustering types are more likely to be present near specific boundaries, emphasizing the increased chemical complexity in these near-boundary segregation zones.

Local hardening and asymmetric twin growth by twin-twin interactions in a Mg alloy

Krishna Yaddanapudi, Mariyappan Arul Kumar, Jiaxiang Wang, Xin Wang, Timothy J. Rupert, Enrique J. Lavernia, Julie M. Schoenung, Irene J. Beyerlein, Subhash Mahajan

Summary: This study investigates the effects of twin-twin interactions on the distribution of defects and stress fields in a magnesium alloy. The analysis focuses on a specific twin junction in a deformed Mg-3wt.%Y alloy. The results show that the morphology of the twins is asymmetric and the dislocations concentrate near the twin-twin junction site. Crystal plasticity calculations suggest that the local stress fields generated at the junction site are responsible for the observed concentration of dislocations. These findings provide insights into the twinning behavior and mechanical properties of Mg alloys.

Residual stress mitigation in directed energy deposition

Aleksandra L. Vyatskikh, Xin Wang, James Haley, Baolong Zheng, Lorenzo Valdevit, Enrique J. Lavernia, Julie M. Schoenung

Summary: Directed Energy Deposition (DED), a rapidly growing additive manufacturing technique, has potential applications in aerospace, medical devices, and energy systems. The control and mitigation of residual stress remain a challenge in DED. This study proposes a novel approach using alloy design, solid-state transformations, and the introduction of hard and soft metallic phases to mitigate residual stress in additively manufactured components. Experimental results demonstrate successful manipulation of residual stresses by adjusting the alloy composition, and the use of residual stress as an engineering criterion in alloy design for metal additive manufacturing is suggested for the first time.

Directly cast fibrous heterostructured FeNi0.9Cr0.5Al0.4 high entropy alloy with low-cost and remarkable tensile properties

Zhenfei Jiang, Weiping Chen, Chenliang Chu, Zhiqiang Fu, Julia Ivanisenko, Hao Wang, Siyuan Peng, Yemao Lu, Enrique J. Lavernia, Horst Hahn

Summary: We report a novel low-cost FeNi0.9Cr0.5Al0.4 high entropy alloy with a unique fibrous heterogeneous solidification microstructure, which consists of fibers-like face-centered-cubic soft phases enveloped in nano-sized ordered body-centered-cubic hard shells. The fibrous microstructure is responsible for its notable mechanical properties, including a yield strength of -670 MPa, an ultimate tensile strength of -1196 MPa, and a uniform elongation of -21.1% at room temperature. The combination of high strength and good ductility is attributed to the hetero-deformation induced hardening mechanism generated from the soft-fiber and hard-shell interface. The cost-effectiveness and outstanding tensile properties make this as-cast FeNi0.9Cr0.5Al0.4 alloy an ideal candidate for structural applications.

Dynamic mechanical performance of FeNiCoAl-based high-entropy alloy: Enhancement via microbands and martensitic transformation

Aomin Huang, Cheng Zhang, Zezhou Li, Haoren Wang, Mingjie Xu, Chaoyi Zhu, Xin Wang, Marc A. Meyers, Enrique J. Lavernia

Summary: The non-equiatomic FeNiCoAlTaB high-entropy alloy shows excellent quasi-static mechanical properties. In this study, we investigate the microstructural evolution and mechanical response of this alloy under dynamic loading, which has not been explored before. A novel strategy combining extensive microbanding and martensitic transformation enhances the resistance to plastic instability by preventing the formation of adiabatic shear bands. The aged alloy, with grain sizes up to 400 μm, exhibits a dynamic yield stress over 1300 MPa and good deformability in this regime. This investigation provides insights into potential strategies for improving the dynamic mechanical properties of structural materials through stress-induced martensitic transformation.

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.

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.
