When H, the lightest, smallest and most abundant atom in the universe, makes its way into a high-strength alloy (>650 MPa), the material's load-bearing capacity is abruptly lost. This phenomenon, known as H embrittlement, was responsible…
Hydrogen embrittlement in 304L (18wt.% Cr, 8-10wt.% Ni) austenitic stainless steel (ASS) fabricated by laser powder-bed-fusion (LPBF) was investigated by tensile testing after electrochemical hydrogen pre-charging and compared to…
TThe effects of alloying elements on diffusion pathways and migration energies of interstitial carbon in austenite (f.c.c.) and ferrite (b.c.c.) are studied using density functional theory first-principles calculations. The binding energies…
In situ neutron diffraction of the uniaxial tension test was used to study the effect of the surrounding matrix microstructure on the mechanical stability of retained austenite in high-carbon bearing steels. Comparing the samples with…
Hydrogen (H) content modifies the creep response of Fe-based alloys by altering thermodynamics of point-defects; here we identify the electronic-structure mechanism underlying this effect. Using spin-polarized first-principles calculations…
A novel medium Mn steel of composition Fe-12Mn-4.8Al-2Si-0.32C-0.3V was manufactured with 1.09 GPa yield strength, 1.26 GPa tensile strength and 54% elongation. The thermomechanical process route was designed to be industrially translatable…
This work integrates in-situ neutron diffraction and crystal plasticity finite element modeling to study the kinematic stability of retained austenite in high carbon bearing steels. The presence of a kinematically metastable retained…
Carbon is a well known austenite stabiliser and can be used to alter the stacking fault energy and stability against martensitic transformation in medium Mn steels, producing a range of deformation mechanisms such as the Transformation…
Austenite reversion during tempering of a Fe-13.6Cr-0.44C (wt.%) martensite results in an ultrahigh strength ferritic stainless steel with excellent ductility. The austenite reversion mechanism is coupled to the kinetic freezing of carbon…
Hydrogen is widely regarded as a cornerstone of future low-carbon energy technologies, yet the lack of safe, efficient, and reversible solid-state storage materials remains a major barrier to its large-scale deployment. Although porous…
Enabling a hydrogen economy requires the development of materials resistant to hydrogen embrittlement (HE). More than 100 years of research have led to several mechanisms and models describing how hydrogen interacts with lattice defects and…
A large body of literature within the additive manufacturing (AM) community has focused on successfully creating stable tungsten (W) microstructures due to significant interest in its application for extreme environments. However,…
Observing solute hydrogen (H) in matter is a formidable challenge, yet, enabling quantitative imaging of H at the atomic-scale is critical to understand its deleterious influence on the mechanical strength of many metallic alloys that has…
The article focuses on the effect of alloying and microstructure on formability of advanced high strength steels (AHSSs) processed via quenching and partitioning (Q&P). Three different Q&P steels with different combination of alloying…
The High Nitrogen Martensitic Stainless Steel (HNMS) was subjected to three different austenitizing cycles of 1050$^\circ$C, 1075$^\circ$C and 1100$^\circ$C followed by subzero treatment at -70$^\circ$C. The fraction of retained austenite…
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) affects all major high-strength structural materials and as such is a major impediment to lightweighting e.g. vehicles and help reduce carbon-emissions and reach net-zero. The high-strength 7xxx series aluminium…
Austenitic stainless steels with low carbon have exceptional mechanical properties and are capable to reduce embrittlement, due to high chromium and nickel alloying, thus they are very attractive for efficient energy production in extreme…
Effective post-heat treatment is critical to achieve desired microstructure for high-performance in additively manufactured (AM) components. In this work, the influence of homogenization on microstructure-property relationship in 17-4PH…
Infrastructure parts for a hydrogen (H) economy need alloys that are mechanically strong and at the same time resistant to the most dangerous and abrupt type of failure mode, namely, H embrittlement. These two properties are in fundamental…
This study focuses on the microstructure's evolution upon different aging conditions of a high-strength low-density steel with a composition of Fe-28Mn-9Al-1C. The steel is hot-rolled, subsequently quenched without any solution treatment,…
