| Abstract Scope |
Structural materials frequently contain multiple phases with chemical and/or structural inhomogeneities which dictate their mechanical properties. Rapid evaluation of these inhomogeneities and their resulting effects on mechanical properties is critical to optimizing new structural materials for a given application. In this talk, we will discuss the use of the Bruker Hysitron PI89 Auto Picoindenter system, a system designed to perform nanoindentation at positions targeted by chemistry (via EDS) or microstructure (via EBSD), to rapidly assess chemistry-microstructure-mechanical property relationships. The material of interest is a two-component steel created by laser cladding 410 stainless steel onto a 4140 steel substrate, which contains multiple microstructural zones from the synthesis process. By targeting specific microstructures from EBSD, we can easily align mechanical property maps with grain orientation maps to assess microstructural-mechanical property relationships in this laser clad steel. |
