Using of Radial-Shear Rolling to Improve the Structure and Radiation Resistance of Zirconium-Based Alloys.

ABSTRACT: An overview of the prospects for the development of nuclear technologies and the conclusion of the relevant requirements for advanced structural materials, their classification and features were performed. In order to obtain a bar with a modified radiation-resistant outer layer, an experiment of radial-shear rolling under the most stringent conditions was carried out. For the same conditions, a FEM-simulation of sequential rolling in eight passes with a total compression of 70.7% (from a diameter of 37 mm to 20 mm) was conducted. For adequate simulation results a new material database for Zr-1%Nb alloy using plastometry investigations was generated. An experimental obtaining of a gradient-modified structure with an ultrafine-grained (UFG) periphery and an elongated rolling texture in the center of the bar was performed.

The Effect of Radial-Shear Rolling Deformation Processing on the Structure and Properties of Zr-2.5Nb Alloy.

Project description:The rheological properties of the Zr-2.5Nb alloy by the strain rate range of 0.5-15 s-1 and by the temperature range of 20-770 °C was studied. The dilatometric method for phase states temperature ranges was experimentally determined. A material properties database for computer FEM simulation regards the indicated temperature-velocity ranges were created. Using this database and DEFORM-3D FEM-softpack, the radial shear rolling complex process numerical simulation was carried out. The contributed conditions for the ultrafine-grained state alloy structure refinement were determined. Based on the simulation results, a full-scale experiment of Zr-2.5Nb rod rolling a on a radial-shear rolling mill RSP-14/40 was carried out. It takes in seven passes from a diameter of 37-20 mm with a total diameter reduction ε = 85%. According to this case simulation data, the total equivalent strain in the most processed peripheral zone 27.5 mm/mm was reached. Due to the complex vortex metal flow, the equivalent strain over the section distribution was uneven with a gradient reducing towards the axial zone. This fact should have a deep effect on the structure change. Changes and structure gradient by sample section EBSD mapping with 2 mm resolution were studied. The microhardness section gradient by the HV 0.5 method was also studied. The axial and central zones of the sample by the TEM method were studied. The rod section structure has an expressed gradient from the formed equiaxed ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure on a few outer millimeters of the peripheral section to the elongated rolling texture in the center of the bar. The work shows the possibility of processing with the gradient structure obtaining and enhanced properties for the Zr-2.5Nb alloy, and a database for this alloy FEM numerical simulations are also presents.

Origin of radiation resistance in multi-principal element alloys.

Project description:Using molecular dynamics simulations, we characterized the generation and evolution of radiation-induced point defects in the CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA), to compare it with pure Ni and pure Fe. The generation of primary point defects was investigated by a cascade simulation at 773 K and the evolution of point defect clusters by a defect evolution simulation using 1 at% defect-containing samples. The numbers of residual defects after cascade and surviving defects after evolution in the CoCrFeMnNi HEA are smaller than those in pure Ni and pure Fe. The defect clusters appearing in the CoCrFeMnNi HEA after the defect evolution are unstable because of the alloy complexity. The origin of the slower radiation damage accumulation and the higher radiation damage tolerance in the CoCrFeMnNi HEA is discussed.

Outstanding radiation resistance of tungsten-based high-entropy alloys.

Project description:A body-centered cubic W-based refractory high entropy alloy with outstanding radiation resistance has been developed. The alloy was grown as thin films showing a bimodal grain size distribution in the nanocrystalline and ultrafine regimes and a unique 4-nm lamella-like structure revealed by atom probe tomography (APT). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction show certain black spots appearing after thermal annealing at elevated temperatures. TEM and APT analysis correlated the black spots with second-phase particles rich in Cr and V. No sign of irradiation-created dislocation loops, even after 8 dpa, was observed. Furthermore, nanomechanical testing shows a large hardness of 14 GPa in the as-deposited samples, with near negligible irradiation hardening. Theoretical modeling combining ab initio and Monte Carlo techniques predicts the formation of Cr- and V-rich second-phase particles and points at equal mobilities of point defects as the origin of the exceptional radiation tolerance.

Shear-driven rolling of DNA-adhesive microspheres.

Project description:Many biologically important cell binding processes, such as the rolling of leukocytes in the vasculature, are multivalent, being mediated by large numbers of weak binding ligands. Quantitative agreement between experiments and models of rolling has been elusive and often limited by the poor understanding of the binding and unbinding kinetics of the ligands involved. Here, we present a cell-free experimental model for such rolling, consisting of polymer microspheres whose adhesion to a glass surface is mediated by ligands with well-understood force-dependent binding free energy-short complementary DNA strands. We observe robust rolling activity for certain values of the shear rate and the grafted DNA strands' binding free energy and force sensitivity. The simulation framework developed to model leukocyte rolling, adhesive dynamics, quantitatively captures the mean rolling velocity and lateral diffusivity of the experimental particles using known values of the experimental parameters. Moreover, our model captures the velocity variations seen within the trajectories of single particles. Particle-to-particle variations can be attributed to small, plausible differences in particle characteristics. Overall, our findings confirm that state-of-the-art adhesive dynamics simulations are able to capture the complex physics of particle rolling, boding well for their extension to modeling more complex systems of rolling cells.

'Slings' enable neutrophil rolling at high shear.

Project description:Most leukocytes can roll along the walls of venules at low shear stress (1?dyn?cm?2), but neutrophils have the ability to roll at tenfold higher shear stress in microvessels in vivo. The mechanisms involved in this shear-resistant rolling are known to involve cell flattening and pulling of long membrane tethers at the rear. Here we show that these long tethers do not retract as postulated, but instead persist and appear as 'slings' at the front of rolling cells. We demonstrate slings in a model of acute inflammation in vivo and on P-selectin in vitro, where P-selectin-glycoprotein-ligand-1 (PSGL-1) is found in discrete sticky patches whereas LFA-1 is expressed over the entire length on slings. As neutrophils roll forward, slings wrap around the rolling cells and undergo a step-wise peeling from the P-selectin substrate enabled by the failure of PSGL-1 patches under hydrodynamic forces. The 'step-wise peeling of slings' is distinct from the 'pulling of tethers' reported previously. Each sling effectively lays out a cell-autonomous adhesive substrate in front of neutrophils rolling at high shear stress during inflammation.

Radial Flow Assay Using Gold Nanoparticles and Rolling Circle Amplification to Detect Mercuric Ions.

Project description:A novel colorimetric assay employing oligonucleotide-conjugated gold nanoparticle (AuNP probes) and rolling circle amplification (RCA) was developed for simple detection of mercuric ions (Hg2+). The thymine-Hg2+-thymine (T-Hg2+-T) coordination chemistry makes our detection system selective for Hg2+. In the presence of Hg2+, the thymine 12-mer oligonucleotide is unable to act as a primer for RCA due to the formation of T-Hg2+-T before the RCA reaction. However, in the absence of Hg2+, DNA coils as RCA products are generated during the RCA reaction, and is further labeled with AuNP probes. Colorimetric signals that depend on the amount of DNA coil-AuNP probe complexes were generated by drop-drying the reaction solution on nitrocellulose-based paper. As the reaction solution spread radially because of capillary action, the complexes formed a concentric red spot on the paper. The colorimetric signals of the red spots were rapidly measured with a portable spectrophotometer and determined as the ΔE value, which indicates the calculated color intensity. Our assay displays great linearity (detection limit: 22.4 nM), precision, and reproducibility, thus demonstrating its utility for Hg2+ quantification in real samples. We suggest that our simple, portable, and cost-effective method could be used for on-site Hg2+ detections.

Nucleation of shear bands in amorphous alloys.

Project description:The initiation and propagation of shear bands is an important mode of localized inhomogeneous deformation that occurs in a wide range of materials. In metallic glasses, shear band development is considered to center on a structural heterogeneity, a shear transformation zone that evolves into a rapidly propagating shear band under a shear stress above a threshold. Deformation by shear bands is a nucleation-controlled process, but the initiation process is unclear. Here we use nanoindentation to probe shear band nucleation during loading by measuring the first pop-in event in the load-depth curve which is demonstrated to be associated with shear band formation. We analyze a large number of independent measurements on four different bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) alloys and reveal the operation of a bimodal distribution of the first pop-in loads that are associated with different shear band nucleation sites that operate at different stress levels below the glass transition temperature, Tg. The nucleation kinetics, the nucleation barriers, and the density for each site type have been determined. The discovery of multiple shear band nucleation sites challenges the current view of nucleation at a single type of site and offers opportunities for controlling the ductility of BMG alloys.

Plasma Electrolytic Modification of Zirconium and Its Alloys: Brief Review.

Project description:The review focuses on the surface modification of Zr and its alloys, which is necessary to expand the applications of these kinds of materials. Data on the properties of pure zirconium and its alloys are presented. Since surface engineering and the operation of the above materials are in most cases associated with the formation of oxide coatings, information on the characteristics of ZrO2 is given. In addition, attention is paid to phasing in the zirconium-oxygen system. It is noted that the most effective method of surface engineering of Zr and its alloys is plasma electrolytic modification (PEM) technology. Specific examples and modes of modification are described, and the reached results are analyzed. The relevance, novelty and originality of the review are determined by the insufficient knowledge about a number of practical features concerning the formation of functional oxide coatings on Zr and some of its alloys by the technology of PEM. In particular, the information on the phase composition and possibilities of stabilization of the tetragonal and cubic modifications of ZrO2, the effects of the component composition of electrolyte solutions and electrolyte suspensions, and the specifics of the treatment of additive shaping and deformed materials are rather contradictory. This review aims to collect recent advances and provide insights into the trends in the modification of Zr and its alloys, promote the formulation of practical recommendations and assess the development prospects.

Developing gradient metal alloys through radial deposition additive manufacturing.

Project description:Interest in additive manufacturing (AM) has dramatically expanded in the last several years, owing to the paradigm shift that the process provides over conventional manufacturing. Although the vast majority of recent work in AM has focused on three-dimensional printing in polymers, AM techniques for fabricating metal alloys have been available for more than a decade. Here, laser deposition (LD) is used to fabricate multifunctional metal alloys that have a strategically graded composition to alter their mechanical and physical properties. Using the technique in combination with rotational deposition enables fabrication of compositional gradients radially from the center of a sample. A roadmap for developing gradient alloys is presented that uses multi-component phase diagrams as maps for composition selection so as to avoid unwanted phases. Practical applications for the new technology are demonstrated in low-coefficient of thermal expansion radially graded metal inserts for carbon-fiber spacecraft panels.

Shear-stabilized rolling behavior of E. coli examined with simulations.

Project description:Escherichia coli exhibit both shear-stabilized rolling and a transition to stationary adhesion while adhering in fluid flow. Understanding the mechanism by which this shear-enhanced adhesion occurs is an important step in understanding bacterial pathogenesis. In this work, simulations are used to investigate the relative contributions of fimbrial deformation and bond transitions to the rolling and stationary adhesion of E. coli. Each E. coli body is surrounded by many long, thin fimbriae terminating in a single FimH receptor that is capable of forming a catch bond with mannose. As simulated cells progress along a mannosylated surface under flow, the fimbriae bend and buckle as they interact with the surface, and FimH-mannose bonds form and break according to a two-state, allosteric catch-bond model. In simulations, shear-stabilized rolling resulted from an increase in the low-affinity bond number due to increased fimbrial deformation with shear. Catch-bond formation did not occur during cell rolling, but instead led to the transition to stationary adhesion. In contrast, in leukocyte and platelet systems, catch bonds appear to be involved in the stabilization of rolling, and integrin activation is required for stationary adhesion.
