    924 IAEA-SM-310/ 69P RESULTS FROM POST-MORTEM TESTS WITH MATERIAL FROM THE OLD CORE-BOX OF THE HIGH FLUX REACTOR (HFR) AT PETTEN M.I. de Vries Netherlands Energy Research Foundation, ECN, Eetten, The Netherlands M.R.. Cundy Joint Research Centre, Patten, The Netherlands 925 RESULTS FROM POST-MORTEM TESTS WITH MATERIAL FROM THE OLD CORE-BOX OF THE HIGH FLUX REACTOR (HFR) AT PETTEN ABSTRACT Results are reported from hardness measurements, tensile tests and fracture mechanics experiments (fatigue crack growth and fracture toughness) on 5154 aluminium specimens, fabricated from remnants of the old HFR core box. The specimen material was exposed to a maximum thermal neutron fluence of 7.5 * 1026n/m2(E < 0.4eV). Test results for this fluence (ratio of the thermal to fast neutron flux density is 1.17) are: hardness 63HR15N, 0.2 - yield strength 525 MPa and total elongation 2.2% strain. Material which was exposed to a lower thermal fluence of 5.6 * 10 n/m , but with a thermal to fast neutron ratio of about 4, shows more radiation hardening : 67HR15N, 0.2 - yield strength 580 MPa and 1.5% total elongation. -5 -3 Fatigue crack growth rates range from 5 * 10 mm/cycle to 10 mm/cycle for AK ranging from 8 to 20 MPa)|m. The most highly exposed (7.5 * 10 n/m ) material shows accelerated fatigue crack growth due to unstable crack extension at AK of about 15 Mpa^m. The lowermost meaningful measure of plane strain fracture toughness is 18 MPa^m. Except for the fracture toughness which is a factor of about 3 higher the results show reasonable agreement with the expected mechanical properties estimated in the "safe end-of-life" assessment of the old HFR vessel.

  • Ferrous Friction Stir Weld Physical Simulation A
    FERROUS FRICTION STIR WELD PHYSICAL SIMULATION A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Seth Jason Norton, M.S. ******** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John Lippold, Adviser Dr. David Dickinson Adviser Dr. Charles Albright Welding Engineering Graduate Program ii ABSTRACT Traditional fusion welding processes have several drawbacks associated with the melting and solidification of metal. Weld defects associated with the solidification of molten metal may act as initiation sites for cracks. Segregation of alloying elements during solidification may cause local changes in resistance to corrosion. The high amount of heat required to produce the molten metal in the weld can produce distortion from the intended position on cooling. The heat from the electric arc commonly used to melt metal in fusion welds may also produce metal fumes which are a potential health hazard. Friction stir welding is one application which has the potential to make full thickness welds in a single pass, while eliminating fume, reducing distortion, and eliminating solidification defects. Currently the friction stir welding process is used in the aerospace industry on aluminum alloys. Interest in the process by industries which rely on iron and its alloys for structural material is increasing. While friction stir welding has been shown to be feasible with iron alloys, the understanding of friction stir welding process effects on these materials is in its infancy. This project was aimed to better that understanding by developing a procedure for physical simulation of friction stir welding.

  • A Survey of Al7075 Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2013): 6.14 | Impact Factor (2013): 4.438 A Survey of Al7075 Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites Rajendra .S .K1, Ramesha .C .M2 1Research Scholar, Jain University, Bengaluru, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management, Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Bengaluru 2Department of Mechanical Engineering, M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru Abstract:A composite material is a combination of two or more chemically distinct and insoluble phases; its properties and structural performance are superior to those of the constituents acting independently. Metals and ceramics, as well, can be embedded with particles or fibers, to improve their properties; these combinations are known as Metal-Matrix composites. Aluminum 7075 alloy constitutes a very important engineering material widely employed in the aircraft and aerospace industry for the manufacturing of different parts and components. It is due to its high strength to density ratio that it a sought after metal matrix composite. In this paper we present a survey of Al 7075 Metal Matrix Composites. Keywords: Metal Matrix Composites (MMC’s), Aluminium Metal Matrix, Beryl, Al7075, Aluminium alloy 1. Introduction Aluminium alloy 7075 is an aluminium alloy, with zinc as the primary alloying element. It is strong, with a strength The effects of research in Aluminium based Metal Matrix comparable to many steels, and has good fatigue strength and Composites (MMC’s) are far reaching these days. These average machinability, but has less resistance to corrosion composites find various applications in the automobile than many other Al alloys. Its relatively high cost limits its industry, the aerospace industry and in defence and marine use to applications where cheaper alloys are not suitable.
