  1. 1. Influence from temperature variations in stacking fault energy on the mechanical properties of stainless steels

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Christopher Hallén; Marcus Johansson Storne; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This paper investigates the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of austenitic stainless steels and how they relate to the material property of stacking fault energy (SFE) and its relation to temperature and nickel content. Austenitic stainless steels are commonly used and well known for good mechanical properties and deformation characteristics. READ MORE

  3. 2. Experimental Testing of EPS-foam

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Carl Göransson; Erik Arnald; [2023]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; EPS; Experimental testing; Hållfasthetslära; EPS; Experimentell testning;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis was to investigate the mechanical properties of ExpandedPolystyrene (EPS) through experimental testing. The strain was measured on thespecimen’s surface with Digital Image Correlation (DIC), in order to investigate howthe first principal strain at fracture initiation depends on the loading of the material.

  4. 3. Numerical Modelling of Combined Forming and Punching of Sheet Metal for Heat Exchanger Applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Erik Stålbrand; [2023]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; Material Modelling; Damage Modelling; Sheet Metal Damage; Punching Simulation; Forming Simulation; Heat Exchanger; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this work a strategy for numerical simulation of punching during concurrent pressing of stainless steel sheet metal has been investigated accounting for the stress triaxiality and Lode angle parameter. Modelling of the damage evolution of a sheet metal is a useful tool within the field of engineering and materials science, and can provide useful information regarding material capabilities in a design process.

  5. 4. Effect of Proton Irradiation on the Mechanical Properties of Fe-10Cr-4Al in Liquid Lead

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Gabriela Lapinska; [2023]
    Keywords : Fe-10Cr-4Al; Lead; Radiation Damage; Slow Strain Rate Testing; Fe-10Cr-4Al; bly; strålskador; Slow Strain Rate Testing;

    Abstract : Among the structural materials under consideration for future lead-cooled fastreactors, special attention is paid to ferritic Fe-10Cr-4Al due to its superior corrosionand erosion protective properties, as well as its insensitivity to liquid metalembrittlement in liquid lead. This thesis gives an inside look into the radiation damageproperties of the alloy and the possible embrittlement scenarios. READ MORE

  6. 5. Pre-Straining Operation : Prediction of Strain Paths Within a Forming Limit Diagram

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Elin Olofsson; Mohammed Al-Fadhli; [2022]
    Keywords : Forming Limit Diagram; Forming Limit Curve; Non-Linear Strain Paths; Pre-Straining; Sheet Metal Forming.;

    Abstract : In a Sheet Metal Forming (SMF) operation, complex geometries in multi-stage forming processes are mostly common. Forming a blank, major and minor straining willoccur. Follow the straining of the blank elements over the forming process will provide its strain paths. READ MORE
