被引用回数：0Ferrite-austenite duplex stainless steels offer excellent strength and ductility, making them suitable for extreme environments. In this study, 
neutron diffraction during tensile testing at 293 K and 200 K was used to investigate stress partitioning and phase-specific deformation. Phase stress was calculated using a texture-compensated method. At both temperatures, ferrite showed higher phase stress than austenite, acting as the harder phase. At 200 K, both phases exhibited increased strength and work hardening. Austenite showed significant stacking fault formation alongside dislocation migration, while ferrite retained its dislocation-based deformation mode, becoming more effective. Stress contributions from both phases were comparable. No martensitic transformation occurred. Strengthening and enhanced work hardening in both phases led to high strength at 200 K, with ductility similar to that at 293 K.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)An ultrafine-grained 304 austenitic stainless steel exhibited pronounced serrated Luders deformation at 20 K, with stress and temperature oscillations reaching 200 MPa and 20 K. 
neutron diffraction and digital image correlation revealed discontinuous Luders band propagation and burst martensite formation. During deformation, austenite phase stress remained lower than at upper yielding, indicating elastic behavior. Notably, martensite phase stress stayed lower than austenite until fracture, likely due to stress relaxation from burst martensitic transformation at 20 K. The low martensite stress delayed brittle fracture until austenite plastically yielded during uniform deformation.

ders deformation followed by high work hardening, with variations in Lders strain and hardening behavior. neutron diffraction during tensile tests analyzed phase stresses, strength contributions, and austenite orientation. Deformation-induced martensite contributed 
1000 MPa to strength near tensile failure, while austenite mainly enhanced ductility via transformation-induced plasticity. Austenite transformed to martensite during Lders deformation regardless of orientation, though 311-oriented grains tended to remain along the tensile direction.

The role of each constituent phase in the deformation and the effect of crystallographic orientation on austenite stability were discussed. Deformation induced martensite showed excellent phase stress and contributed to the strength approximately 1000 MPa, which is close to macroscopic tensile strength.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Metallurgy & Metallurgical Engineering) deformation experiments with cold-rolled and intercritically annealed Fe-5Mn-0.1C steel were carried out at ambient temperature to characterize the deformation heterogeneity during Lders band propagation. Deformation band formation, which is a precursor phenomenon of Lders band propagation, occurred even in the macroscopically elastic deformation stage. The deformation bands in the Lders front grew from both the side edges to the center of the specimen. After macroscopic yielding, the thin deformation bands grew via band branching, thickening, multiple band initiation, and their coalescence, the behavior of which was heterogeneous. Thick deformation bands formed irregularly in front of the region where the thin deformation bands were densified. The thin deformation bands were not further densified when the spacing of the bands was below 10 
m. Instead, the regions between the deformation bands showed a homogeneous plasticity evolution. The growth of the thin deformation bands was discontinuous, which may be due to the presence of ferrite groups in the propagation path of the deformation bands. Based on these observations, a model for discontinuous Lders band propagation has been proposed.

Specifically, the micro-deformation mechanism during Lders banding was characterized based on multi-scale electron backscatter diffraction measurements and electron channeling contrast imaging. Similar to other medium-Mn steels, the Fe-5Mn-0.1C steel showed discontinuous macroscopic deformation, preferential plastic deformation in austenite, and deformation-induced martensitic transformation during Lders deformation. Hexagonal close-packed martensite was also observed as an intermediate phase. Furthermore, an in-situ neutron diffraction experiment revealed that the pre-existing body- centered cubic phase, which was mainly ferrite, was a minor deformation path, although ferrite was the major constituent phase.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：0.00(Metallurgy & Metallurgical Engineering) neutron diffraction measurements were performed on Fe-33Ni-0.004C alloy (33Ni alloy) and Fe-27Ni-0.5C alloy (27Ni-0.5C alloy) during cooling from room temperature to the cryogenic temperature (4 K) to evaluate changes in the lattice constants of austenite and martensite, and changes in the tetragonality of martensite due to thermally induced martensitic transformation. As the martensitic transformation progressed, the lattice constants of austenite in both alloys deviated to smaller values than those predicted considering the thermal shrinkage, accompanied by an increase in the full width at half maximum of austenite. The fresh martensite formed in both alloys had a body-centered tetragonal (BCT) structure, regardless of the carbon content. The tetragonality of martensite decreased with progressive martensitic transformation during cooling in the 33Ni alloy, but was almost constant in the 27Ni-0.5C alloy. This suggests that carbon is necessary to maintain the tetragonality of martensite during cooling. The tetragonality of martensite in the 27Ni-0.5C alloy decreased during room temperature aging because of carbon mobility.

In this study, the thermal stress alterations generated in a tungsten fiber reinforced titanium composite (W/Ti composite) were evaluated by the neutron stress measurement method at cryogenic temperatures. The W/Ti composite thermal loads were repeated from room temperature to the cryogenic temperature (10 K), and alterations in thermal residual stress were evaluated using the neutron in situ stress measurement method. In this measurement, the stress alterations in the titanium matrix and the tungsten fibers were measured. This measurement was carried out by TAKUMI (MLF-BL19) of J-PARC, a neutron research facility in the Japan Atomic Agency. The measurement method of TAKUMI is the time-of-flight (TOF) method. Owing to this measurement method, the measurement time was significantly shortened compared to the angle-dispersion type measurement by a diffractometer. As a result of the measurement, large compressive stresses of about 1 GPa were generated in the tungsten fibers, and tensile stresses of about 100 MPa existed in the titanium matrix. The thermal stresses due to the temperature change between room temperature and cryogenic temperature is caused by the difference of thermal expansions between the tungsten fibers and the titanium matrix, and these stress values can be approximated by a simple elastic theory equation.

被引用回数：2 パーセンタイル：7.22(Metallurgy & Metallurgical Engineering)Two mechanisms inconsistent each other, a relaxation of type II internal stress and a presence of mobile dislocation, were previously proposed to describe the low elastic limit of as-quenched lath martensite steels. In this study, neutron diffraction experiments were performed to revisit the deformation behavior of lath martensite steel. The highly dense random arrangement dislocations easily moved at the beginning of deformation, then accumulated, annihilated and changed the arrangement differently depending on the orientation of the packet with respect to the deformation direction. The movement of highly dense random arrangement dislocations played an important role as a mechanism at the beginning of deformation, and can be a true feature of mobile dislocations.

本研究では、新しい機構論に基づいた限界熱流束予測手法を提案する。適切な安全評価を行うため、また、設計コストを削減するために、メカニズムに基づくCHFの予測方法の確立が、長い間望まれてきた。核沸騰の高熱流束域からCHFまでの加熱面付近の気液挙動に関するいくつかの実験結果から、われわれは、加圧水型軽水炉でのCHFを予測するにはマクロ液膜ドライアウトモデルが適用できると考えている。マクロ液膜ドライアウトモデルを用いてCHFを予測するには、燃料表面のマクロ液膜の厚さとその上面を覆う蒸気泡の通過期間を予測することが必要となる。本研究では、著者らが提案したマクロ液膜の厚さの予測手法と蒸気泡の通過期間の予測手法を組み合わせることで、強制対流沸騰におけるCHFを評価する。評価した結果と強制対流沸騰におけるCHFの実験データを比較することで、その妥当性を検証する。

To develop and advance the technologies in cryogenic industries, it is required to fully understand the underlying deformation mechanisms of Ti under the extreme cryogenic environment. Here, we report a study of the lattice behaviour in grain families of Grade 2 CP-Ti during in-situ neutron diffraction test in tension at temperatures of 15-298 K. Combined with the neutron diffraction intensity analysis, EBSD measurements revealed that the twinning activity was more active at lower temperature, and the behaviour was complicated with decreasing temperature.

The roles of Cu and Fe on the deformation behavior of alloys were discussed and clarified. The strength and work-hardening rate of the alloy increased with decreasing test temperature. Furthermore, the phase stress of Fe increased considerably with decreasing test temperature; however, the response of this stress to the applied true stress exhibited no dependence on the temperature. The phase stresses of Cu changed only slightly with decreasing test temperature. However, the Cu phase stress response to the applied true stress increased with decreasing test temperature, indicating an increase in the work-hardening rate. The strengthening of Fe and the increase in the work-hardening of Cu contributed to an increase in the strength and work-hardening rate of the Cu-Fe alloy at low temperatures.

Japanese nails have been applied to various wooden building skeletons in Japanese temples and shrines over a period of one thousand years. Since most of Japanese nails in the ancient day are designated as an important cultural property, their destructive examinations can be hardly done. In order to discuss the material and its manufacturing process of the Japanese nails, we have done some experiments on both ancient and present Japanese nails. In this study, phase, texture and residual stress of the Japanese nails were investigated using neutron diffraction. Two types of Japanese nails were provided; one was an ancient nail obtained from Houryuji-temple; the other was a present nail forged by blacksmith. BCC iron peaks are identified in both. Although the cementite and ferrous oxide peaks are detected in the present nail, no cementite is detected in the ancient nail. The residual stresses of each nail were very low. The ferrite grains of each nail were randomly oriented.

The tensile deformation and stress partitioning behavior of duplex phase alloys consisting of FCC and BCC at low temperatures were investigated using in-situ neutron diffraction during deformation. Cu-40mass%Fe alloy rolled sheet and JIS SUS329J4L duplex stainless steel were used. Both alloys showed a good balance of strength and elongation at low temperatures. In Cu-40mass%Fe alloy, the BCC phase stress at yield point increased by decreasing test temperature. The FCC phase stress at yield point was almost constant regardless of test temperature. The FCC phase started plastic deformation at a low applied true stress. When the BCC phase yielded, phase stress of FCC increased drastically at beginning, then, it increased to applied true stress with the same rate of BCC phase stress at latter regime. On the other hand, both BCC and FCC phase stresses in SUS329J4L increased by decreasing temperature.
