Abstract:
In the scope of this paper, the usage of the miniature samples and investigating using small samples is discussed. The miniature samples were used for determination of mechanical properties for titanium alloy deposited by additive manufacturing. The tensile tests on the standard and the miniature samples were provided for commonly used Ti-6-Al-4V alloy. These titanium alloy samples were produced by electron beam melting and by selective laser melting method that belongs to powder bed fusion processes of 3D printing. The purpose of this work was to demonstrate that local material characteristic can be obtained using the miniature specimen. The usage of small samples could provide many advantages for testing of mechanical properties. In our investigation it is shown that the results are in good agreement for standard and miniature specimens. The strength characteristics reached identical values. However, the plastic characteristic, such as elongation and reduction of area, are not comparable duo to the presence of internal defects. The small defects, such as lack of fusion or pores, have major impact on the miniature samples in comparison to the negligible influence on the larger specimens. The fractography included in this research reveals the differences for the small and standard size specimens.

Title: Investigation of high temperature cyclic loading behavior of molybdenum-hafniumcarbide
Biography:
Athar Safari has her expertise in Materials Science and Engineering. With respect to her background on high-temperature mechanical behavior and creep properties of metallic alloys, she is dealing with the possibilities to increase the service life, hardness, heat resistance, application temperatures and damage resistance of materials used as die forging tools for high-temperature forming of Titanium Aluminides.
Abstract:
The isothermal forging of titanium aluminides takes place between 1100°C and 1250°C with very low strain rates. This requires materials for the forming tools which have high stability at elevated forming temperatures as well as high resistance against wear, good oxidation resistance and heat resistance. At present, forging dies made of molybdenum alloys, which enable the shaping of titanium aluminide materials in an isothermal forging process, are used. Particle-reinforced molybdenum-hafnium-carbon alloys (MHC) exhibit a sufficiently high yield strength at 1200°C and a much better heat resistance than nickel-base alloys, iron aluminides or high-strength steels. Further progress in the development of new titanium aluminide alloys requires advanced forging tools and thus more knowledge about the tool material. Despite the great potential and application technological acceptance of MHC in high temperature applications, the thermo-mechanical behavior of this alloy with special focus on alternating load is not completely understood. Considering the forging process as a high temperature long-term low cycle fatigue process, in this study the mechanical behavior of MHC was investigated after several cyclic loading patterns. The tests were performed under different stress levels and different speed conditions. Microstructural observations, using optical microscopy and secondary electron microscopy were carried out. Hardness measurements were performed before and after cyclic loading in different conditions. The results show a decrease in the number of cycles until sample failure with increasing level of applied stress and an increase in the number of cycles until failure with increasing velocity.

Abstract:
Metallic foam is a porous media that combines physical and mechanical properties, such as a low specific weight with high compression strength. Since pores are interconnected, foams have the capacity to conduct fluids, reason why represent an option in engineering. The objective of this research is to investigate the permeability behavior of aluminum foams with different pore sizes simulating pressure and temperature conditions of reservoir, with the aim of evaluating its performance as an alternative for oil and gas industry. The methodology followed consisted in the preparation of aluminum (Al) foam samples with different pore sizes. This was carried out by means of infiltrating an open pore bed of bonded sodium chloride (NaCl) particles with molten Al, and then leaching the NaCl in distilled water. The wall thickness among the pores was measured and porosity percentage was calculated using a helium pycnometer. The compressive behavior of the foams was determined using an instron universal testing system, for obtaining young's modulus and compression strength. Finally, with the Darcy's law, the permeability coefficient of the samples was calculated by oil flux with high pressures intervals at room temperature, 100ºC and 200ºC. The importance of this project is that metallic foams for the energy industry have never been investigated nor proposed, thus the results presented in this research give way to a new engineering application of this materials.

Aleksandra Debowska is pursuing her PhD at AGH University of Science and Technology. Currently, her area of research interest includes scientifically high temperature corrosion science and alternative energy sources. She graduated in chemistry with forensic and conservation chemistry specialization from Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland.
Abstract:
The choice of material used to work at high temperatures is one of the main problems while designing equipment for energy applications. Additionally, the presence of such elements as S, Cl, K or Na (typical elements which may be find at biomass or municipal wastes) in the work environment increases the possibility of corrosion occurrence. The aim of this study was to investigate the surface and cross-section of weld cladded (CMT, Cold Metal Transfer method) samples of Inconel 625 after exposure to different renewable fuel ashes at 650 °C for 500 h. Characterization of the Inconel samples and ashes after the corrosion process was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDAX analysis, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Figure 1 shows cross-sectional image of Inconel sample after the corrosion process caused by mixed wood ash. On the surface, the corrosion products can be distinguished mostly oxides of elements such as chromium or nickel. Moreover some ashes compounds were observed as residues. There was proved that the effects of corrosion process depend on the type of ash used.

Abstract:
Micro alloyed HSLA steel was subjected to advanced thermo mechanical processing. The unique combination of processing parameters and microstructural phenomena i.e., combined metal forming consisted of cold rolling and subsequent thermo mechanical rolling, recrystallization and precipitation processes during reheating allow to study the role of prior austenite morphology in the development process of ultrafine grained and bimodal microstructures. Produced in the thermo mechanical processing material was analyzed and characterized using optical metallography, Electron Back Scattered Diffraction (EBSD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). The results show a clear effect of the paths of thermo mechanical treatment on microstructure development and mechanical response of produced in such a way micro-alloyed steel specimens. The investigated specimens were subjected to the compression and tension tests under quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. In these tests a wide range of strain rate was applied to demonstrate the ability of the investigated inhomogeneous microstructures to accommodate the deformation effects under dynamic loading conditions. It has been shown that produced in the thermo mechanically processed specimens complex microstructures effectively inhibit nucleation of the stress concentrations. It was observed that the deformation energy dissipates on the interphase boundaries due to the differences in mechanical response of the microstructure components.

Title: MOF based Fe2O3 hollow Nano cube @ Graphene oxide-Ni for toxic gas sensor
Biography:

He has won several competitions and won several prizes for his innovative design in engineering during his college days and also in International appropriate technology design competition.

Abstract:
Graphene has been considered as a promising candidate for gas sensor since its high surface area, conductivity and sensitivity to its surroundings which are attributed to its unique 2D structure and conjugated carbon system. However, graphene should be functionalized to assign selectivity and higher response to bare graphene. On the contrary, metal oxide gas sensors have been reported as high responsive and selective sensors, but its operating temperature is usually higher than 150º C which is not suitable for our daily lives. In this regard, our research groups convert graphene oxide into nickel functionalized graphene oxide composite with Fe2O3 hollow nano-cube for toxic gas sensor at room temperature for synergistic effect of them. As prepared materials were characterized by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and gas sensor test system. We found that functionalized graphene oxide has better selectivity and response to formaldehyde gas among ammonia, trimethyl ammonia and formaldehyde gas. Consequently, response of as-prepared sensors is improved by adding iron oxide hollow nano cube. Also, it shows optimum annealing temperature at 300º C in terms sensor performance. The enhanced performance is attributed to the characteristics of nano cubes which have superb adsorption property and ability to prevent aggregation of graphene. Among three toxic gases, the sensor showed the highest response to formaldehyde gas.
