Defects appear frequently in solidification processes, associated to the presence of impurities, dislocations, grain boundaries or stresses. Studying the formation and dynamics of these defects is essential, as they directly influence material properties such as strength, conductivity, and optical behavior. Directional solidification of thin samples of salol, an organic transparent material, were conducted to investigate the evolution of a faceted solid-liquid interface. Different conditions, including thermal gradients of 1 and 2 K/mm and pulling velocities ranging from 2.5 to 10 µm/s, were applied, allowing to characterize the resulting facet dynamics. For the highest thermal gradient, increasing the pulling velocity resulted in a decrease in the facet tip angle, whereas for the lowest gradient, the angles remained similar across all pulling velocities. These observations are influenced by the initial conditions, such as variations in seed crystal orientation and quality, which affect the evolution of the solidification front. The complex dynamics of the interface reveals the formation and evolution of several defects at different scales, including bubbles, growth striations, facet splits and distortions, and twin boundaries. In situ observations allows a detailed analysis of defect origins. Bubbles, systematically observed, are most likely attributed to nitrogen contamination in melt during sample filling. The stress-induced dislocation movement has been identified as one of the mechanisms for defect formation. Additionally, crystal misorientation leads to stress redistribution, which increases the likelihood of defects.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47623,"journal":{"name":"Materialia","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 102405"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143829783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Uniaxial results indicate that the yield strength and tensile strength of the GS321 specimen are improved by 112 % and 18.6 %, respectively, which is attributed to the thicker GS layer and SMRT-induced martensite strengthening. Fatigue results confirm that the fatigue strength of GS321 is improved and the fatigue life is increased by at least ∼ 10 times. During fatigue loading at 550 °C, the grain size within the surface layer of the GS321 specimen remains stable, but a significant reverse transformation of martensite to ultrafine austenite is observed. Additionally, the RCS within the GS surface relaxes by 67.2 % prior to fatigue, and it further rapidly relaxes with cyclic loading. These results suggest that the RCS had a limited effect on the fatigue properties of the GS321 specimen at 550 °C. The excellent fatigue property of the GS321 specimen is attributed to the thicker GS layer, martensitic phase transformation strengthening, and the synergistic effect.

This study investigates the residual stresses, strains, microstructure, and mechanical properties of stainless steel multipass welds using the Dual-Wire Tungsten Inert Gas (DW-TIG) process. Two filler metals, austenitic 304 L and martensitic 415 stainless steels, were used to weld 20 mm thick 304 L baseplates, employing alternated and graded filling strategies compared to single-wire reference welds. Residual stress was determined using neutron diffraction and the contour method, with macroscopic distortion evaluated via profilometry. Microstructure was analyzed via electron backscatter diffraction, micrographs and Vickers hardness tests. Weld mechanical performances were assessed trough tensile tests and compared to standards. The results show strong agreement between the contour method and neutron diffraction, with discrepancies below 100 MPa. The alternated strategy achieved the most significant strain reduction (18 %) without amplifying stress, providing the best compromise between residual stress, strain, and mechanical performance. Martensitic transformation emerged as a key mechanism, introducing compressive stresses. The findings demonstrate the potential of DW-TIG welding to reduce distortions, minimize material waste, and enhance stress field control, making the process applicable to industrial settings (for thick components welding or part reloading). Future work will explore alternative filling strategies and lower-energy welding parameters to further enhance grain refinement and mechanical performance further.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47623,"journal":{"name":"Materialia","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 102403"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143792301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A recent study in binary systems indicated a significant error in estimated data for consideration of constant molar volume if the molar volumes of the diffusing elements are significantly different. It also indicated that considering ideal molar volume variation is essential if a system's non-ideal molar volume variation is unknown. This could not have been practiced until now in ternary and multicomponent systems because of the unavailability of this correlation. This equation scheme is established in this study for conventional diffusion couples (all elements produce diffusion profiles) and constrained, such as pseudo-binary and pseudo-ternary diffusion couples (in which only two or three elements produce the diffusion profiles, respectively). The difference in data calculated considering a constant molar volume and neglecting the vacancy wind effect (which is mainly practiced until today) is compared with the data considering the molar volume of diffusing elements and vacancy wind effect in NiCoFeCr and an imaginary quaternary multi-principal element system.
