    Phase Transformation Induced by High Pressure Torsion in the High-Entropy Alloy CrMnFeCoNi
    (Basel : MDPI, 2022) Chulist, Robert; Pukenas, Aurimas; Chekhonin, Paul; Hohenwarter, Anton; Pippan, Reinhard; Schell, Norbert; Skrotzki, Werner
    The forward and reverse phase transformation from face-centered cubic (fcc) to hexagonal close-packed (hcp) in the equiatomic high-entropy alloy (HEA) CrMnFeCoNi has been investigated with diffraction of high-energy synchrotron radiation. The forward transformation has been induced by high pressure torsion at room and liquid nitrogen temperature by applying different hydrostatic pressures and large shear strains. The volume fraction of hcp phase has been determined by Rietveld analysis after pressure release and heating-up to room temperature as a function of hydrostatic pressure. It increases with pressure and decreasing temperature. Depending on temperature, a certain pressure is necessary to induce the phase transformation. In addition, the onset pressure depends on hydrostaticity; it is lowered by shear stresses. The reverse transformation evolves over a long period of time at ambient conditions due to the destabilization of the hcp phase. The effect of the phase transformation on the microstructure and texture development and corresponding microhardness of the HEA at room temperature is demonstrated. The phase transformation leads to an inhomogeneous microstructure, weakening of the shear texture, and a surprising hardness anomaly. Reasons for the hardness anomaly are discussed in detail.

    Determination of stiffness and higher gradient coefficients by means of the embedded atom method: An approach for binary alloys
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2006) Boehme, Thomas; Dreyer, Wolfgang; Müller, Wolfgang H.
    For a quantitative theoretical description of phase separation and coarsening reliable data of stiffness constants and the so called Higher Gradient Coefficients (HGCs) are required. For that reason pair potentials of the Lennard-Jones type were used in [1] to provide a theoretical tool for their quantitative determination. Following up on this work these quantities are now calculated by means of the Embedded-Atom Method (EAM), a recently developed approach to describe interatomic potentials in metals. This is done, first, to achieve a better agreement between predicted and experimentally observed stiffness data as well as to avoid artifacts, such as the Cauchy paradox, and, second, to increase the trustworthiness of the HGCs for which experimental data are rarely available. After an introduction to the fundamentals of EAM it is outlined how it can be used for calculating stiffness constants and HGCs. In particular, Johnson's modification of EAM for nearest neighbor interactions [3] is applied to present explicit numerical results for a case study alloy, Ag-Cu, which has a simpleface-centered-cubic crystal structure and where it is comparatively easy to obtain all the required analysis data from the literature and to experimentally compare the predictions of mechanical data.

    Optimal control of a cooling line for production of hot rolled dual phase steel
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2013) Bleck, Wolfgang; Hömberg, Dietmar; Prahl, Ulrich; Suwanpinij, Piyada; Togobytska, Nataliya
    In this article, the optimal control of a cooling line for production of dual phase steel in a hot rolling process is discussed. In order to achieve a desired dual phase steel microstructure an optimal cooling strategy has to be found. The cooling strategy should be such that a desired final distribution of ferrite in the steel slab is reached most accurately. This problem has been solved by means of mathematical control theory. The results of the optimal control of the cooling line have been verified in hot rolling experiments at the pilot hot rolling mill at the Institute for Metal Forming (IMF), TU Bergakademie Freiberg.

    Parameter determination of an evolution model for phase transformations in steel
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2010) Streckenbach, Timo
    The paper is concerned with a general ansatz of a phenomenological evolution model for solid-solid phase transformation kinetics in steel. To model the phase transition of austenite-ferrite, -pearlite or -bainite, a first order nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) is considered. The main goal of this paper is to derive certain conditions for parameters which based on data obtained from transformation diagrams. This leads to a set of independent parameters for which the inverse problem has an unique solution
