Extent of recrystallization of grains and nucleation of precipitates varied with peak temperatures. TEM characterization showed the presence of Cr 2 N precipitate having an average particle size in the range of 300 nm to 395 nm in the simulated HAZ were confirmed by Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED) analysis. Precipitation kinetics of Cr 2 N were simulated using Thermo-Calc were found to correlate well with experimental values. Mechanical properties of specimens taken from three different HAZ were evaluated for tensile strength and hardness. Variation in strength of the different specimens has been discussed using various strengthening models. Fractography analysis was also carried out to understand the effect of peak temperature on fracture behaviour. Transition in fracture patterns in NFHNSS from ductile to mixed mode was observed for different specimens.","PeriodicalId":18331,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research-ibero-american Journal of Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67302803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sometimes one also reports the interfacial area density between the new and the parent phase, V S αβ , against the volume fraction transformed. V S αβ is a dynamic interface. It migrates as the growth of the new phase takes place. Interfaces between transformed phases might be called static interfaces. These may be present before transformation starts, for example, grain boundaries of a polycrystalline parent phase. Alternatively, static interfaces, , V S ββ , may appear during the transformation because of impingement. Therefore, one may better understand the microstructural evolution following the behavior of the volume fraction, dynamic and static interfaces. A more complicated situation occurs if the parent phase transforms into two or more product phases, for example, α→β,γ. In this work, we apply parameters to describe the transformation of a parent phase into a single phase, the contiguity and the dispersion, to the situation in which the parent phase transforms into two or more phases. We tested these parameters against computer simulations and concluded that they combine a good description of the behavior of the simulated transformations and simplicity","PeriodicalId":18331,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research-ibero-american Journal of Materials","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67303128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Samples (n=20) of 3Y-TZP ceramics were compacted, sintered at 1500 °C - 2h, and characterized by relative density, X-Ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The elastic parameters (modulus of elasticity and Poisson ratio), used in the numerical simulations, were measured by the Impulse Excitation Technique, and the bending strength was obtained using piston-on-three-balls testing. An authorial implant design and, comparatively, commercial implant CAD models were used in this study as an initial geometry of dental implant in a typical adult mandible anatomy. From CAD and CAE techniques, finite element models were generated for all implant geometries. Loading cases were considered based on different intensities (100N to 500N) and orientation angles (45° or 90°) to reproduce the human masticatory efforts. The numerical predictions were compared with finite element simulations of gold-standard titanium-based implants. The investigated 3Y-TZP sintered ceramics presented high densification (> 99%), with a microstructure formed by submicron equiaxed tetragonal zirconia grains. The 3Y-TZP average bending strength obtained from piston-on-three-balls testing is 1192 ± 99 MPa. For both dental implant geometries, the zirconia implants showed average strength of less than 550 MPa, which, in turn, is independent of the masticatory load value or orientation angle. All finite element predictions are 50% inferior to the corresponding measured flexural strength values and preliminarily enable the 3Y-TZP ceramics for dental implant applications without fracture risk.","PeriodicalId":18331,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research-ibero-american Journal of Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67300704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis, Brookfield viscosimetry; dynamic-mechanical analysis (DMA) and mathematical modeling with consolidated and standardized methods, it was possible to evaluate the polymerization kinetics and viscoelastic behavior of the material in solutions with different concentrations. The generated equations allow the prediction of the kinetic and gelation behavior of the material reducing the need for laboratory tests to determine polymer properties.

The effects of changes in argon partial pressure on the anti-icing, wettability, optical, and structural properties of the resulting thin films have been experimentally investigated. X-ray diffraction demonstrated a (002) peak of ZnO, the intensity of the peak diminishes with an increase in partial pressure. The band gap was measured to be between 2.98 and 3.15 eV, and the average maximum transmittance was observed to be around 82% for 50% partial pressure and 71% for 33% partial pressure, confirming the transparency of the thin films. Wettability studies revealed that the films are hydrophobic with a maximum contact angle of 127.5°, which was deposited at lower partial pressure. Films deposited at 33% partial pressure delayed the formation of ice on the surface by 4.5 folds when compared to an uncoated substrate.","PeriodicalId":18331,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research-ibero-american Journal of Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67302191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The abrasive wear behavior of fabricated specimens is evaluated experimentally using a pin on the desk apparatus. The abrasive wear results are used to predict the abrasive wear behavior of the fabricated composites using OMLR methods. OMLR methods are implemented and carried out using MATLAB/software. The OMLR methods use the input parameters of TiO 2 , sliding distance and load, and the weight loss due to abrasive wear as an output to build their optimal models. OMLR methods were successfully detected with small errors, especially GPR methods. The results of the proposed GPR were compared with those obtained from the ANN model with the efficacy of the GPR model.

Plastic flow behaviour was analyzed using Holloman and Ludwigson flow equations. Samples in solution annealed and aged conditions exhibited a flow transition behaviour. Ludwigson flow equation produces best fit for flow transition behaviour. Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) investigations of NFHNSS samples after tensile test revealed dislocation network and planar arrangement of dislocations adjancent to Grain Boundaries (GB) in the solution annealing and aged conditions respectively. Plastic deformation of NFHNSS occurs by a combination of planar glide and twinning. Impact energy was significantly higher in solution annealed condition than aged condition. Impact energy values decreased with increasing aging temperature. Precipitation and growth as well as morphology of Cr 2 N at the GBs reduce the impact energy values significantly. Presence of larger precipitates readily pull out from GB easily than smaller precipitates at low temperatures. Large precipitate, at the GB’s readily pull out at low temperature, compared to slower ones.","PeriodicalId":18331,"journal":{"name":"Materials Research-ibero-american Journal of Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67302827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
