Precipitation hardening of laser powder bed fusion Ti-6Al-4V

November 20, 2024
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Jake Benzing, Jacob Garcia, Zachary Levin, Ping Lu, Newell Moser, Chad Beamer, Frank DelRio, Nikolas Hrabe
The laser powder bed fusion (PBF-L) additive manufacturing (AM) community has dedicated significant efforts into process optimization and control for defect-free Ti-6Al-4V. As defects become less of an issue for PBF-L Ti-6Al-4V, the processing-structure

Hydrogen Embrittlement Susceptibility and Fracture Toughness Measurements of Welded X65M Pipeline Steels

November 14, 2024
Author(s)
Newell Moser, Zack Buck, Nicholas Derimow, May Ling Martin, Damian Lauria, Enrico Lucon, Peter Bradley, Matthew Connolly
Hydrogen is known to deteriorate the mechanical performance of steels (i.e., hydrogen embrittlement). The welding processes involved in the manufacturing and joining of steel pipelines locally modifies the microstructure of the steel, further complicating

Microstructure and mechanical properties of laser powder bed fusion Ti-6Al-4V after HIP treatments with varied temperatures and cooling rates

October 22, 2024
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Jake Benzing, Howard Joress, Austin McDannald, Ping Lu, Frank DelRio, Newell Moser, Matthew Connolly, Alec Saville, Orion Kafka, Chad Beamer, Ryan Fishel, Chris Hadley, Nikolas Hrabe
This work investigated non-standard HIP cycles for PBF-L Ti-6Al-4V and characterized microstructure and tensile properties to compare between material that originated from the same build. For 920 °C, faster cooling rates (100 °C/min, 2000 °C/min) were

Assessing girth weld quality of pipeline steels and their susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement

August 28, 2024
Author(s)
Zack Buck, Newell Moser, Nicholas Derimow, May Ling Martin, Damian Lauria, Enrico Lucon, Douglas Stalheim, Peter Bradley, Matthew Connolly
Hydrogen has long been considered a viable carbon-free option for ever-increasing societal desires to transform our energy infrastructure towards more renewable and alternative technologies. However, the effects of hydrogen-assisted damage mechanisms that

Assessing girth weld quality of pipeline steels and their susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement

June 16, 2024
Author(s)
Zack Buck, Newell Moser, May Ling Martin, Nicholas Derimow, Damian Lauria, Enrico Lucon, Douglas Stalheim, Peter Bradley, Matthew Connolly
Hydrogen is known to cause premature failure in various steel infrastructures due to effects of embrittlement, which is particularly detrimental to ferritic steel structures such as pipelines and pressure vessels. Therefore, understanding the

Microstructural effects on the rotating bending fatigue behavior of Ti-6Al-4V produced via laser powder bed fusion with novel heat treatments

April 30, 2024
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Jake Benzing, David Newton, Chad Beamer, Ping Lu, Frank DelRio, Newell Moser, Orion Kafka, Ryan Fishel, Lucas Koepke, Chris Hadley, Nik Hrabe
The rotating bending fatigue (RBF) behavior (fully reversed, R = -1) of additively manufactured (AM) Ti-6Al-4V alloy produced via laser powder bed fusion (PBF-L) was investigated with respect to different microstructures achieved through novel heat

Evidence for contributions of lack-of-fusion defects and dislocations to acoustic nonlinearity and loss in additively manufactured aluminum

February 2, 2024
Author(s)
Ward L. Johnson, Paul R. Heyliger, Jake Benzing, Orion Kafka, Newell Moser, Derek Harris, Jeremy Iten, Nik Hrabe
Resonant acoustic nonlinearity and loss have previously been found to be correlated with porosity in additively manufactured (AM) commercially pure aluminum and stainless steel, and this effect offers a potential basis for rapid nondestructive

AM Bench 2022 Macroscale Tensile Challenge at Different Orientations (CHAL-AMB2022-04-MaTTO) and Summary of Predictions

January 16, 2024
Author(s)
Newell Moser, Jake Benzing, Orion Kafka, Jordan Weaver, Nicholas Derimow, Ross Rentz, Nik Hrabe
The additive manufacturing benchmarking challenge described in this work was aimed at the prediction of average stress–strain properties for tensile specimens that were excised from blocks of non-heat-treated IN625 manufactured by laser powder bed fusion

Unintended consequences: Assessing thermo-mechanical changes in vinyl nitrile foam due to micro-computed X-ray tomographic imaging

October 5, 2023
Author(s)
Alexander Landauer, Zois Tsinas, Orion Kafka, Newell Moser, Jack Leigh Glover, Aaron M. Forster
Micro-computed X-ray tomography (μCT) is a volumetric imaging tool used to quantify the internal structure of materials. μCT imaging with mechanical testing (in situ μCT) helps visualize strain-induced structural changes and develop structure-property

A Materials Data Framework and Dataset for Elastomeric Foam Impact Mitigating Materials

June 5, 2023
Author(s)
Alexander Landauer, Orion Kafka, Newell Moser, Ian Foster, Ben Blaiszik, Aaron M. Forster
The availability of materials data for impact-mitigating materials has lagged behind applications-based data. For example, data describing on-field helmeted impacts are available, whereas material behaviors for the constituent impact mitigating materials

Pore Formation Driven by Particle Impact in Laser, Powder-blown Directed Energy Deposition

May 26, 2023
Author(s)
Edward Garboczi, Newell Moser, Samantha Webster, Kornel Ehmann, Jian Cao, Kamel Fezzaa, Tao Sun
Material manufactured by laser, powder-blown directed energy deposition often contains residual pores, which can be detrimental to the strength and fatigue life of a part. We uncover a new kind of pore formation that is driven by powder particle impact
