Mesure des cinétiques de propagation de la corrosion intergranulaire de l’alliage d’aluminium 2024 : nouvelles approches expérimentales de l’endommagement en fonction des conditions environnementales / Measurement of the intergranular corrosion growth kinetics on a 2024 aluminium alloy : new experimental approaches of damage as function of the environmental conditions

Bonzom, Rémy 08 November 2017 (has links)
Le coût de la maintenance aéronautique pourrait être réduit en proposant des stratégies d’inspection « intelligentes » intégrant des outils prédictifs de l’évolution des défauts, comme la vitesse de propagation de la corrosion intergranulaire.Dans cette thèse, nous avons cherché à quantifier les deux modes d’endommagement associés à la corrosion intergranulaire sur un alliage 2024 : la composante « perforante » (dissolution des pointes de joint de grain) et la composante « émoussante » (dissolution des parois des grains dans les cavités intergranulaires). Pour évaluer la composante « perforante », nous proposons une nouvelle variante de la méthode TFP (méthode OTFP) plus complète car elle ne se limite pas à caractériser le défaut le plus rapide mais permet de suivre l’ensemble des défauts perforants grâce à la nature optique de la détection. Dans cette méthode, le dispositif expérimental laisse libre la face de détection, ce qui permet de prélever l’électrolyte issu des cavités intergranulaires et de procéder à son analyse chimique. Cette donnée, peu connue à ce jour, a été utilisée pour valider des modèles de « transport réactif » qui pourront servir de base à des simulations prédictives intégrant l’effet de la nature de l’environnement. La porosité au sein du matériau induite par la corrosion intergranulaire et amplifiée par la dissolution « émoussante » a été suivie en temps réel par mesure de la conductivité électrique avec une sonde à courants de Foucault. D’abord calibrées en régime potentiostatique, ces méthodes se sont par la suite révélées efficaces pour évaluer l’endommagement associé à la corrosion intergranulaire lors d’une corrosion de type atmosphérique. / Costs of aeronautical maintenance can be reduced by implementation of “smart” inspection strategies integrating predictive data on the evolution of defects such as the propagation rate of intergranular corrosion.In this work, intergranular corrosion damage on 2024 aluminium alloy was characterized by two modes : the “perforating” damage (dissolution of the grain boundary tips) and the “blunting” damage (dissolution of the grain walls in the intergranular cavities). To evaluate the “perforating” damage, a new version of the TFP method (OTFP method) which is more complete, was designed. The OTFP method allows to detect all the intergranular corrosion defects and not only the fastest full penetrating grain boundary thanks to the optical nature of the detection. In this method the detection backside of the thin foil is free, which makes possible the collection of the trapped electrolyte in the intergranular cavities to carry out its chemical analysis. This not well-known data, was used to validate “mass-transport” models which could be implemented in predictive simulations considering the effect of the environmental conditions. The porosity inside the foil induced by the intergranular corrosion and enhanced by the “blunting” dissolution was followed in real-time by measuring the electrical conductivity using an eddy current probe.These methods were first calibrated in potentiostatic tests and then successfully applied to evaluate the intergranular corrosion damage in atmospheric corrosion conditions.

This research, therefore, aimed to answer the following problem: What are the predominant trends on the conception of Education underlying the speeches of Deputies and Senators of the National Congress, from 2010 to 2014? In order to respond to the problem, two specific objectives were defined: a) To understand the relationship between the State, Social / Educational Policy and the Draft Law Nº. 8.035 / 2010 and Draft Law Nº 103/2012 in the Brazilian National Congress ; b) to analyze the predominant tendencies of the conception of Education underlying the Discourses of Deputies and Senators of the National Congress, from 2010 to 2014. It is a Documentary Research in which the selection of the sources occurred through the access to the Discourses available in the site of the Chamber of Deputies, speeches and shorthand notes from 2010 to 2012 and 2014, and the Federal Senate, Federal Senate Diary, from 2012 to 2014, which correspond to the process of Draft Law. As a result of the analysis of the content of the speeches of the Deputies and Senators two objectives were obtained: Education and Economic Development and Work, Work and Poverty. With this, it can be concluded that it is a predominantly educational trend that underlies the Speeches of Deputies and Senators and liberals, having a relationship with an Economic and Social Development and Social Development, among other categories: Quality, Competitiveness, Productivity, Workforce Qualification, Eradication / Combating Poverty / Inequalities / Poverty, an Inclusion / Insertion / Social Rise, Social Justice / Dignity / Citizenship, Research / Science / Technology / Innovation. / O Plano Nacional de Educação – PNE (2014-2024) tramitou no Congresso Nacional Brasileiro durante os anos de 2010 à 2014.

Influences of fluorine species on the anodizing behaviour of aluminium and AA 2024-T3 alloy

Elaish, Reafat January 2018 (has links)
The present study investigates the effect of fluorine species during anodizing of aluminium and AA2024-T3 alloy in sulphuric acid and tartaric-sulphuric acid (TSA) electrolytes. The investigation comprises four main parts; (i) Effects of fluoride on barrier film formation on aluminium. (ii) Effects of fluoride and fluorozirconic acid (FZ) on porous film growth on aluminium in sulphuric acid. (iii) Effects of FZ on porous film growth on aluminium and AA 2024-T3 alloy in sulphuric acid and TSA. (iv) Effects on anodizing of other fluoroacids (fluoroboric (FB), fluorosilicic (FS) and fluorotitanic acid (FT)). The anodic films were examined by analytical scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, nuclear reaction analysis and glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy. The behaviour of fluoride ions during the growth of barrier-type films on aluminium was investigated in ammonium pentaborate solution with added sodium fluoride. Additions of up to 3.5 x 10-3 M sodium fluoride had a negligible influence on the film growth. In contrast, 3.5 x 10-2 M sodium fluoride reduced the efficiency to 60% as fluoride ions promoted field-assisted ejection of Al3+ ions from the film. Incorporated fluoride ions migrated inwards at a rate about twice that of O2- ions, forming a fluoride-rich layer at the film base. The study of the influence of FZ on formation of porous anodic films in sulphuric acid and TSA employed a range of anodizing voltages, electrolyte temperatures and anodizing times. Fluoroacid increased the growth rate, with a reducing influence as the temperature increased. The films contained fluoride and sulphate ions, zirconium was not detected. The fluoride concentration decreased with increasing temperature, whereas the sulphate concentration was unaffected. Anodizing aluminium and AA 2024-T3 alloy in other fluoroacids resulted in similar influences on the anodizing behaviour as FZ. The differences in growth rate, film composition and film morphology were comparatively small and did not show a systematic dependence on the type of fluoroacid employed. Boron, silicon and titanium were not detected in the films.

Effect of sulphate impurity in chromic acid anodizing of aluminium and aluminium alloy

Elabar, Dawod January 2016 (has links)
In this work, the nucleation and growth of pores in anodic films formed on aluminium in chromic acid and the effect of low levels of sulphate impurity in the anodizing bath on the formation of the films on aluminium and AA 2024 alloy are investigated. The sulphate concentrations considered include levels within specified limits for industrial processing. The anodizing is carried out either potentiostatically or by stepping the voltage. The films are examined by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy to determine the pore spacing, pore population densities, pore diameters and film thicknesses. Film compositions were determined using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Rutherford backscattered microscopy and nuclear reaction analysis. In order to investigate the mechanism of pore formation, two tracer methods are employed. In one method, anodic films are formed first in an arsenate electrolyte in the second method, a tungsten tracer band deposited by magnetron sputtering. The behaviours of arsenic and the tungsten are investigated during the subsequent anodizing in chromic acid. The results suggest that the initiation and growth of pores in occurred as a result of electric field assisted chemical dissolution. The effect of sulphate impurity in the chromic acid is investigated using electrolytes with different sulphate content. In the initial stages of anodizing aluminium at 100 V, sulphate impurity at a level of 38 ppm in the chromic acid is shown to lead to significant incorporation of sulphate ions into the anodic film, a lower current density, a smaller cell size and less feathering of the pore walls. In addition, the efficiency of film formation is increased. In later stages of anodizing, the growth of larger pores and cells, leads to a duplex film morphology, with finer pores in the outer region. The change in pore size correlates with a reduction in the incorporation of sulphate into the film. From the results of sequential anodizing experiments, it is suggested that incorporated sulphate ions generate a space charge layer, which has an important role in determining the current density. The effects of higher sulphate concentrations up to 3000 ppm are investigated, which are shown to significantly affect the current density and the pore diameter. Anodizing of aluminium and AA 2024 alloy was also carried out according to industrial practice. The results show that there is significant effect of sulphur impurity on the film thickness. Corrosion tests in 3.5 % NaCl solution for the alloy after anodizing in low (smaller or equal to 1.5 ppm) and high (~38 ppm) sulphate-containing chromic acid electrolytes demonstrate a better corrosion resistance with films formed in the latter electrolyte.

Vieillissement et propriétés résiduelles de matériaux issus du démantèlement d'avions en fin de vie

Billy, Fabien 25 March 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre d'un vaste programme visant à établir un premier retour d'expérience sur des structures aéronautiques en fin de vie. L'objectif des travaux présentés ici est donc de caractériser le vieillissement et les propriétés résiduelles de pièces provenant d'avions après démantèlement, et donc après service. Plus précisément, deux matériaux de nature différente sont considérés : un alliage d'aluminium 2024-T351, constitutif d'une voilure d'A320 ; et un composite carbone/époxy T300/914, prélevé sur les voilures d'un Falcon X et d'un ATR.Pour les voilures composites, les travaux ont porté sur les effets de l'eau des stratifiés. L'évolution de la température de transition vitreuse en DMA a été étudiée en fonction du taux d'humidité présente dans le stratifié. Les résultats d'essais de sorption set de désorption ont été confrontés à différents modèles de diffusion. Les propriétés résiduelles ont été évaluée au travers de divers essais mécaniques. Il ressort de cette étude un très bon comportement du composite après service.Les travaux concernant la voilure métallique se focalisent sur les propriétés résiduelles en fatigue de l'alliage de voilure. Les résultats montrent qu'un durcissement structural apparaît en service, et qu'un léger abattement de la durée de vie en fatigue est observable. Cependant, le comportement à la fissuration est inchangé en comparaison avec un matériau " neuf ".Au final, ce premier retour d'expérience est positif. Il peut maintenant permettre aux avionneurs de vérifier les règles utilisées lors de la conception ou d'optimiser certains dimensionnements, mais aussi de justifier des extensions de durée de vie des avions.

Simulation of hard projectile impact on friction stir welded plate

Wang, Wei 12 1900 (has links)
A numerical simulation is conducted using LS-DYNA to simulate hard projectile impact on a friction stir welded (FSW) plate. As the hard projectile has a wide range of velocity, mass and shape, when referring to AMC 25.963(e) of CS-25, ―Fuel Tank Access Cover‖, the hard projectile can be defined as 9.5 mm cubic-shaped steel engine debris with an initial impact velocity of 213.4 m/s (700 ft/s). This preliminary study was to evaluate whether the fuel tank adjacent skin panel joined by FSW would pass the regulation. First, the geometry and Johnson-Cook material model of the FSW joint were developed based on previous experimental research and validated by comparison with the tensile test on the FSW specimen. Then the impact on an Aluminium Alloy 2024 (AA 2024) plate without FSW was modelled. The minimum thickness of a homogeneous AA 2024 plate which could withstand the impact from engine debris is 3 mm. Finally the impact on 3 mm thick AA 2024 FSW plate was simulated. The welding induced residual stress was implemented in the plate model. The impact centre was changed from the nugget zone to the thermo-mechanically affected zone, heat-affected zone and base material zone of the FSW joint. Penetration only occurred in the model with impact centre on the nugget zone. Additional simulation indicated that increasing the thickness of the FSW plate to 3.6 mm could prevent the penetration.

Effect Of Ecap And Subsequent Heat Treatments On Microstructure And Mechanical Properties Of 2024 Aluminum Alloy

Saraloglu, Ebru 01 September 2008 (has links) (PDF)
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) results in ultra-fine grain sizes in metals and alloys. Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) is one of the special SPD methods aiming to introduce high plastic strains into the bulk materials without changing their cross section. ECAP results in improvement in hardness and strength while still satisfying acceptable ductility level. The combined effects of ECAP and subsequent heat treatments, i.e. post-aging and post-annealing, on the microstructure and hardness of the 2024 aluminum alloy were investigated. An ECAP die with 120&amp / #730 / channel angle was constructed. Subgrain formation, increase in dislocation density and dislocation tangling were observed after ECAP, and subgrain growth was detected after post annealing. The specimens revealed higher hardness values after ECAP at room temperature, and further increase in hardness was observed following post-aging at 80&amp / #730 / C, 100&amp / #730 / C and 190&amp / #730 / C. Effect of the aging temperature on the deformed specimens was investigated, and the aging behaviors of the severely deformed and undeformed samples at 190&amp / #730 / C were compared.

Low Velocity Impact Characterization Of Monolithic And Laminated Aa 2024 Plates By Drop Weight Test

Kalay, Yunus Emre 01 January 2003 (has links) (PDF)
The objective of this study was to investigate the low velocity impact behavior of both monolithic and laminated aluminum alloy plates. For this purpose, a drop-weight test unit was used. The test unit included the free fall and impact of an 8 kg hammer with an 8 mm punching rod from 0.5 m to 4 m. The relationship between the change in static mechanical properties (hardness, ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, strain hardening rate) and low velocity impact behavior of monolithic aluminum plates were investigated. Tested material was AA 2024, heat treatable aluminum alloy, which was artificially aged to obtain a wide range of mechanical properties. In the second stage of the study, the relationship between the low velocity impact behavior of laminated plates was compared with that of monolithic aluminum plates at identical areal densities. For this purpose, a series of AA 2024 thin plates were combined with different types of adhesives (epoxy, polyurethane or tape). Finally, fracture surface of the samples and microstructure at the deformation zone were examined with both scanning electron microscope and optical microscope. It is found that the ballistic limit velocities of AA 2024 plates increase with increase in hardness, yield strength and ultimate tensile strength. It is also found that a linear relation exists between the ballistic limit velocity and strain hardening rate or hardness. When the low velocity impact behaviors of laminated and monolithic targets were compared, it was seen that monolithic targets have a higher ballistic limit velocity values for from the 2.5 to 10 mm thick targets. It was also observed that adhesives are not so effective to strengthen the low velocity impact performance. On the other hand, with increasing Charpy impact energy, penetration and perforation behaviors are getting worse in 10 to 30 joules energy range. Different types of failure mechanisms involving, plugging, dishing, stretching and bending were determined. For high strength and thick plates plugging type deformation was leaded. In contrast, for thinner and weaker targets bending, stretching and dishing type failures were dominating. For laminated targets also dishing type failure was determined.

Effect of Rolling Induced Anisotropy on Fatigue Crack Initiation and Short Crack Propagation in Al 2024-T351

January 2011 (has links)
abstract: A full understanding of material behavior is important for the prediction of residual useful life of aerospace structures via computational modeling. In particular, the influence of rolling-induced anisotropy on fatigue properties has not been studied extensively and it is likely to have a meaningful effect. In this work, fatigue behavior of a wrought Al alloy (2024-T351) is studied using notched uniaxial samples with load axes along either the longitudinal or transverse direction, and center notched biaxial samples (cruciforms) with a uniaxial stress state of equivalent amplitude about the bore. Local composition and crystallography were quantified before testing using Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy and Electron Backscattering Diffraction. Interrupted fatigue testing at stresses close to yielding was performed on the samples to nucleate and propagate short cracks and nucleation sites were located and characterized using standard optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy. Results show that crack nucleation occurred due to fractured particles for longitudinal dogbone/cruciform samples; while transverse samples nucleated cracks by debonded and fractured particles. Change in crack nucleation mechanism is attributed to dimensional change of particles with respect to the material axes caused by global anisotropy. Crack nucleation from debonding reduced life till matrix fracture because debonded particles are sharper and generate matrix cracks sooner than their fractured counterparts. Longitudinal samples experienced multisite crack initiation because of reduced cross sectional areas of particles parallel to the loading direction. Conversely the favorable orientation of particles in transverse samples reduced instances of particle fracture eliminating multisite cracking and leading to increased fatigue life. Cyclic tests of cruciform samples showed that crack growth favors longitudinal and transverse directions with few instances of crack growth 45 degrees (diagonal) to the rolling direction. The diagonal crack growth is attributed to stronger influences of local anisotropy on crack nucleation. It was observed that majority of the time crack nucleation is governed by the mixed influences of global and local anisotropies. Measurements of crystal directions parallel to the load on main crack paths revealed directions clustered near the {110} planes and high index directions. This trend is attributed to environmental effects as a result of cyclic testing in air. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S. Mechanical Engineering 2011
